We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful and welcoming venue than Paniolo Ranch for our wedding weekend. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning grounds a...
nd thoughtfully designed facilities. The natural beauty of the ranch provided the perfect backdrop for our photos—we barely needed any additional decoration!
Paniolo hosted both our rehearsal dinner and reception dinner, and both evenings were absolutely wonderful. The cocktail hours were lovely, and the service stood out in such a positive way—our server was incredibly friendly and attentive. The dining spaces were set up beautifully, with thoughtful details that made everything feel special and elevated. We truly felt like royalty during both dinners. The rehearsal dinner, in particular, was unforgettable—the steak was a huge hit with everyone!
Judy helped guide me in making great decisions and took care of many details behind the scenes, allowing me to relax and fully enjoy the entire weekend. That level of support made all the difference.
One of the best parts of having our wedding here was being able to have most of our family stay onsite. It made everything so convenient and added to the overall experience of being together in such a peaceful, beautiful setting.
The bridal suite was perfect for getting ready—it was spacious, comfortable, and ideal for having hair and makeup professionally done with my mom and maid of honor.
Overall, we are beyond grateful for our experience at Paniolo Ranch. It was everything we hoped for and more, and we would highly recommend it to any couple looking for a scenic and truly special wedding venue.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Paniolo Ranch! From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. The breathtaking Hill Country view...
s, the peaceful atmosphere, and the beautifully maintained grounds made it an absolute dream.
Hunter was fantastic throughout the booking process! He was incredibly helpful, responsive, and made everything seamless from start to finish. He answered all of our questions, provided clear guidance, and ensured we had everything we needed to move forward with confidence. His professionalism and attention to detail made the planning process so much easier.
We chose the “Did It My Way” package, and it was exactly what we wanted. The flexibility allowed us to create a wedding that truly reflected us, and the venue provided the perfect backdrop for our special day.
Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning the location was, and we are still in awe of how magical everything turned out. If you’re considering Paniolo Ranch for your wedding, we highly recommend it—it was the best decision we made!
10/10—Highly recommend!

I just had my wedding and reception here last night. The venue is absolutely beautiful! The grounds are flawless, and there isn't a better looking ceremony set up! We were able to ...
check in the day before the wedding and set up our wedding decorations. This was not the case for any of the other venues we checked out and it made for a much less stressful wedding day. It made us so relaxed on the day of and allowed me to hang out with the guys instead of decorating on the wedding day and allowed all the girls to get pampered and hang out together in the massive bridal suite all day. We also appreciated that we were able to wait until Sunday to get everything out so that our wedding day was just a day of being with the ones we love and celebration.
We loved that the staff took care of all of the major parts of the set up and decorations. The venue took care of our flowers, which came out amazing! The bridal bouquet was better than we could have hoped for and matched the bridal party bouquets my wife created almost exactly. The cake was also an exact replica of the inspiration picture Kelsie sent to Judy. The food tasted amazing and the service was excellent.
Hunter even helped last minute to secure our wedding arch as it was a windy day and we had to go get in line for the entrance walk out. Very happy with our experience, and think it is a wonderful place to get married!

I recently had an elopement wedding at Paniolo Ranch, and I can't express my disappointment enough regarding my experience. Despite initial promises, the owner Judy did not uphold ...
her commitments nor our contract by double booking another wedding over mine. Being that I was 30 minutes late to the alter Judy allowed another wedding party to rehearsal their event at the alter putting me and my wedding party on hold informing me that it was my fault because I was late. Our contract has us paying or 2 hours! This led to a cascade of issue that significantly impacted our special day. The lack of attention to detail, blame put on bride, and failure to prioritize our event left us feeling neglected and disheartened.
Our wedding day should have been a joyous, and intimate occasion, but due to these issues, it turned into a stressful and hurtful experience. My hope is that future couples won't have to endure the same challenges.

We received so many compliments & I would highly recommend this venue. Thanks, Paniolo, for the best day ever. :)

The venue has a beautif...
ul location for stunning hill country views for the ceremony. A nice open area for an outdoor cocktail hour. A very spacious reception area that held 100+ guests and a open dance floor! Paniolo Ranch also offered us a spacial and lovely bridal suite and grooms suite.
Not only was the venue perfect but what truly made it AMAZING was Hunter! We booked our venue in January of 2021. Between Jan 2021 to the day before our wedding in Oct 2022 Hunter was VERY communicative! It made our experience PERFECT! He also let us view the venue whenever we needed to! Which helps when trying to figure out decor, etc. I wish I could leave 100 stars for Paniolo Ranch! We loved it here! It made our wedding day PERFECT!

They gave me all the information needed in a matter of hours, we were already emailing back and forth. I had a venue tour scheduled relatively quickly and they were super flexible with the day and timeline! The day before the wedding Hunter opened the venue for us to set up and was there for anything we needed. He is also on property the day of to ensure everything runs smoothly. My experience was so un stressful and made my planning so much more fun! I highly recommend them!

rs began showing up and we're also unable to get ahold of any staff at the beginning. Brenda then met us at the reception hall telling us how busy she is and that the vendor should have known already where to drop things off at. Yes, we are all busy on my wedding day. Later on Brenda rudely told my cousin and bridesmaids during our cocktail hour that they had to get all of our things out of the bridal suite at that very moment since we didn't rent that specific suite for the night. Even though we had rented out all of the B&Bs. They all had to rush and get everything as we're preparing to go into our reception. If that was the case, that should have been calmly communicated to all of us before the wedding even began. Not minutes before our reception was to begin. At the end of the night there was also confusion and different communications on where we should have our things for the getaway limo. Even arguing in front of my husband and I.
Other than those very frustrating moments, we had a great night.

Paniolo Ranch is an amazing venue with caring professional staff that make the most important day of life seem easy. Thank you Judy, Kathy and Marsha.
Individual cabins ...
with full kitchens some cabins with hot tubs and fire places.
Paniolo is the perfect venue with beautiful landscaped grounds.
Paniolo is located near Boerne Texas, with great food and drinks and shopping.
Venue offers a cooked dinner and massage as part of the wedding package.
We really did not want to check out after our amazing stay.
This place makes you feel at home.

venue is so beautiful and well kept. We barely needed any decorations because the venue in and of itself spoke so much character. Hunter was extremely helpful and friendly. The wedding day went so smooth and we got so many comments about how pretty the venue was. We stayed overnight in the bridal suite which was super convenient and very accommodating. If you are looking for an affordable venue for a smaller wedding with a botanical garden feel; this venue is for you. Can't express how thankful we are to have stumbled across this one after looking at so many others!

Hunter and Judy were so helpful with everything from communication, set up, tear down, etc. We rented all of the b&b's for the weekend and it couldn't have been more perfect for being able to walk to the venue before and after the event and to set up the day before. Truly, they made our day, the best day ever.

Paniolo Ranch is magical. The scenery, garden, and ceremony spot is breathtaking and makes a perfect wedding. The host Judy takes care of EVERYTHING - bouquets, centerpieces, cake ...
(which tastes amazing), officiant , plus more. The Bridal Suite is also perfect for any bride with amazing views and a huge jacuzzi. Not to mention, she has quite a few bed & breakfast available for plenty guests. You do not have to worry about traveling before or after your wedding. It is very convenient for not only the couple, but bridal party. My wedding dream came true at the Paniolo Ranch. My husband and I wanted to plan a wedding in 6 months and everything fell into place beautifully. The service from Judy was spectacular , she reassured me time and time again not to worry about a thing, she has plenty of experience and knows her stuff :) Paniolo Ranch was the first and only place my Husband and I visited when looking for a venue. You won't regret a single thing. In fact, my family loved it so much they are planning a mini get away and will go back to stay at her ranch.

Paniolo Ranch is a great place to have your wedding if you want amazing views of the Texas Hill Country! The bridal and groom's suites for getting ready in have plenty of space and...
large windows to let in natural light. The ceremony site overlooks their 100-acre ranch, and you are provided with amazing views as you say, “I do”. The reception hall does too as it has an amazing glass wall/door that can open. They are incredibly amazing and kind at Paniolo Ranch!
My husband and I finally tied the knot on September 25, 2021, after having to postpone our wedding due to Covid and the risk concern for our loved ones. This obviously complicated things as we had to reschedule everything, but Judy was so kind and worked closely with us in order to provide us with a day that we loved and enjoyed so much! Judy and Kathy were incredible to work with as we got closer to the wedding day and even worked with me when I decided to change the table decorations a month before the wedding... but in the end, the decorations were everything I wanted! Kathy had sent me a photo a few days prior to us heading to the Ranch for the weekend and it made mine and my husband’s day to see our vision come together. We had been nervous wrecks because we currently live in Colorado and couldn’t be as hands-on as we would’ve liked to be, so receiving Kathy’s picture provided us with so much relief and the ability to relax. They worked incredibly hard to see our vision through!
We also reserved the Airbnb's for the weekend (Friday – Sunday) and they were perfect for our bridal party and family members that wanted to stay on the ranch. We were able to have our rehearsal dinner in one of the Airbnb’s and my mom and grandma cooked breakfast the morning of in one of them. The bridesmaids were able to stay comfortably in one of the houses and so were the groomsmen so my husband and I could have our “bachelor night” the night before and relax with friends we don’t see as often anymore. My husband and I also booked the bridal suite for our wedding night so we could head straight upstairs to sleep which was perfect for us!
The food and cake were amazing also! We had so many people tell us they loved the food and cake which Judy and her team cooked and prepared!
Overall, we had a great experience and Judy was super helpful in making the day run smoothly!

Was looking for a venue for a intimate wedding for the 2 of us. Found Paniolo Ranch on the internet and read about the Elopement Package. Didn’t read any reviews but read about ...
all the amenities from their website and was sold on going there. Arrived a little late, but the 2 wonderful message therapists were friendly, patient, and well qualified. From there we went to the Pineapple House for our 2 night stay. We loved our accommodations, lots of fresh towels, big shower, hot tub out in the back patio, comfortable bed, cozy sheets, refrigerator full of fruit, orange juice, bottled water, scrambled eggs, pumpkin bread, and croissant breakfast sandwiches. We had 3 fresh flower arrangements in our house that was soft and welcoming. We walked around the property and just sat and took in the breathtaking views. Beautiful country and gorgeous facility nestled in the hill county. Judy took care of every large and small detail of our wedding ceremony and dinner. She took the photos, made my bouquet, and made the most delicious dinner you can’t get anywhere! Jumbo shrimp and avocado appetizers, beautiful salad with her homemade blue cheese dressing, a steak that would melt in your mouth and seasoned to perfection, with steamed vegetables, loaded baked potato, rolls, butter, and a beautiful strawberry filled wedding cake! I cannot imagine a more perfect place for us to start our live together as husband and wife, in the presence of God, in His great outdoors surrounded by His beautiful creation! We are ready to go back and have already decided to make it a tradition to spend time with Judy at Paniolo Ranch!

My wife and I booked the Eat, Sleep, and Be Married package ($6,600 base + fees/taxes and added extras = 9,621). We had 27 guests, which were all family. Our package came with all ...
of the added Bed and Breakfast lodging, ceremony, officiant, wedding reception area for dinner, dancing, and karaoke, breakfast buffet the last day, snacks, continental breakfast, wedding cake, our bouquets, and center pieces for the reception. Extras we paid for was the photo booth, rented out the bridal suite, and for our dogs to stay at the Ohana house since they were in the wedding. Also, gratuity was $900, which I included in the total (when all is said and done, trust, it’s a well deserved gratuity). All we needed to pay outside of the package on our own was a DJ, our dresses, and a photographer.
We both work 60-80 hours a week, so we needed a package that would take the heavy lifting off of us when it came to planning the wedding. We also needed a venue that would work with us from out of town (we live 7 hours from Paniolo). My wife and my work schedule conflicts so we actually fully paid for our venue before we even toured it. It sounds risky, but they answered all our questions and their website had enough pictures for us to plan the lodging.
We came across Paniolo Ranch from The Knot. I’m so glad we went with Paniolo because our family loved the experience. They had a fun time swimming in the pool, barbecuing, canoeing, jumping from the dock into the lake, relaxing on lawn chairs taking in the view, the spa’s massage, chatted in the jacuzzi, chatting around the gardens, seeing wildlife like deer and baby armadillos, and going for morning walks around the area. Plus, we hardly had to lift a finger on our wedding day. All I really had to do was get in my wedding dress and Judy and her family made sure our big day went smoothly. I was able to fully enjoy it. The food was great, we had a good time dancing and singing karaoke. They went above and beyond for us!

I’ll let you in on a little secret... Paniolo is Hawaiian for cowboy and that describes this venue perfectly! Beautiful hill country views, fire bowls, water falls, courtyard with numerous plants and trees, and the look of the reception hall is country without being over the top. I highly recommend you check Paniolo out for your special day!

Thank you Paniolo Ranch for everything and all the accommodations during our wedding this past Sunday. The event was meant to be outside, but the weather was so bad (cold front and...
windy) that Judy and Hunter were so helpful to make our day the best possible. Thank you guys for everything.

Paniolo ranch is a beautiful wedding venue and the staff is friendly and professional. This wedding venue is an excellent and unique choice for any couple! To say scenery is peace...
ful and breathtaking is an understatement. I especially liked the gardens near the ceremony area as there is a canopy of flowers that forms a tunnel which makes one of many beautiful photo opportunities. You and your bride would do well to choose this venue!

Amazing venue with the most breathtaking views. The venue was the perfect backdrop for our wedding. Beautiful grounds and very well maintained!! So many amazing spots for pictures ...
and very roomy for all the guests. The staff was so helpful through the entire planning process, and ready for any changes. It was drizzling the day of my wedding and the owner/coordinator Judy was prepared and had white umbrellas ready for each guest just in case. Highly recommend this unique venue!!

We had our wedding here about a month ago. Judy and her staff were very accommodating especially with me planning from out of state she was very patient with all my emails calls an...
d questions and answered everything for me. We did the bells and banquets package which included basically everything (catering, floral, officiant, ceremony and reception space) except for photography and dj. I am so thankful to have gotten this package as it made planning from out of state so much less stressful. It included a buffet dinner with chicken shrimp pork and pasta and salad. It was honestly delicious and just as good if not better than if we would have hired an outside caterer! Judy also made the cake which was DELICIOUS! And let me tell you, if you book this package do not worry your wedding details are in great hands with Judy and her team. For one, Judy just has fantastic taste in decor, and really has an eye for rustic wedding aesthetics. She really made everything turn out beautiful. We also decided to book out the entire B&B for the weekend so that our wedding party and family could stay on property and make it easier for everyone. And of course I would be remiss if I didnt mention how breathtakingly beautiful the entire property is!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better backdrop to our special day.

Lemme start out by warning you the length of the review, ALL OF IT GOOD. Miss Judy was THE best. I probably sent her 50+ different emails in a month and a half with a new question ...
every time. She answered every one and never got testy with my irritating butt. The place was GORGEOUS! The background to our ceremony was to die for, the wedding cake was scrumptious, and the champagne was awesome (I normally don’t even like it but we demolished almost the whole bottle just my now husband and I). We had a fabulous steak dinner in the main house after a awesome massage that made my husband change his opinion on “why would you pay that much for a massage?”. Being from 14 hours away I had no idea who to call for my hair or my pictures and Miss Judy hooked me up! With our ceremony on a Sunday and most salons closed that day, she found someone who could not only do it, but do what I wanted and made it look AMAZING. If I’d have known a place like this existed when we got engaged, we wouldn’t have even tried to plan a wedding back home. Can’t wait to see our pictures and I’ve been telling everyone who will listen, “go get married at the Paniolo. Thank me later.” Anything you need, they’ll hook you up with it.

We got married here in a super small ceremony (14 guests) which was primarily held at the main house. The ranch is absolutely beautiful, I can't imagine a more perfect backdrop for...
our wedding. Since our wedding was small, we had dinner inside the main house, which Judy's team did a wonderful job decorating. We had the steak dinner listed on their website and it was phenomenal. I had several guests say it was the best wedding dinner they'd ever had. Our package also included a couples massage and seriously, best massage ever. I'm pretty ticklish and usually can't relax during a massage but I was almost falling asleep. So overall, ranch is gorgeous, food is fantastic and the staff are great!
