I was born & raised on a dairy farm in NE Iowa. When I was a teenager, my sister and I bought our first horses and competed in barrel racing and team roping. After graduating from high school, I started working for a local saddle maker, building custom saddles and making leather watch bands for a well-known watch maker.
In April of 2000, I met my husband, Jake, at a rodeo and we were married in October. Together we built Outback Ranch, a beautiful indoor and outdoor wedding venue for breath taking county weddings.
We welcome you to come celebrate your special day with us!

Beautiful venue with an affordable price! As a 2024 bride, I was very impressed and felt blessed to have our wedding at Outback Ranch. The venue is very well taken care of, and we had so many compliments! Holly and Jake are very helpful when you need it. I had so many questions leading up to our big day, and Holly was always responsive in a kind manner! They also have tons of natural beauty there as well as beautiful rentals for decorations as you wish. Best thing of all - you get it for the entire weekend! Our family loved camping there. There are enough back up options if it rains, and plenty of space. We had 280 guests which all fit inside with not even straight rows of tables! The bridal suite upstairs is very nice as she added hair stations! There could be better room for makeup as there is really only one window for natural light, but there is also a cabin for rental that is amazing (that our guys stayed in). It was a perfect day and I would recommend Outback Ranch to anyone!

5 stars is not enough!!!! My now husband and I came across Outback Ranch shortly after getting engaged. It was the first and only venue we toured - It seemed like the obvious choice back then and just last weekend we left the venue married, on cloud 9 and so happy we went with our gut and booked this place. Hollie and Jake were so welcoming to us and our guests over the weekend and we are incredibly grateful for everything they did to help our wedding weekend be a time we’ll never forget. The scenery is so beautiful, I highly recommend adding hayrides to your itinerary. It was a guest favorite and we had a blast taking the last ride with our wedding party before the grand entrance!

This place was amazing!! A beautiful spot that you can enjoy the day before your wedding and have plenty of clean up time the next day. Holly and Jake we so great to work with and easy going. So many guests complimented how beautiful the venue is, and to not have to drive here and there for separate ceremony and reception spots is a huge bonus. If you're looking for beautiful scenic views it's a one stop shop. The Weiser family has thought of it all and made it a relaxing and fun experience.

This was the easiest and best decision we made regarding our wedding. Planning during COVID was stressful enough, Jake and Holly made our experience less stressful during all the other stress. They were flexible with times, when we could come in and set up and when everything had to be off the property. All of our guests appreciated the amenities that the venue has to offer! Indoor space, outdoor space, plumbing, air conditioning and the two rooms included on the property to sleep and get ready! For the price you are paying for all of the space and amenities, you can’t go wrong! We had shuttle services from La Crosse bring our guests to and from the venue without issues! It was a picture perfect day!!
