Sky Ranch Weddings

hunting and saw SRL as well as a few other venues in Sedona, and nothing could compare to SRL. The obvious selling point, the stunning unobstructed view is what really hooked us. It was magic. We booked with them later that same day. We opted for the “Dream” package in which we worked directly with a wedding coordinator/planner at SRL and they pretty much helped us plan our wedding from beginning to end including executing contracts and payments with all the related vendors. This was HUGE for us since we live in NJ and could not easily go out there and be familiar with the vendors. We had monthly Zoom calls with our coordinator (Shannon Jennings) which was amazing. Shannon was ontop of everything and had notes on anything I mentioned I wanted included in our day. She handled everything, including coordinating everything the day of. Throughout the year leading up to our wedding, we were able to get tons of stuff shipped to SRL in preparation for the wedding. They stored our items in a designated place that was temperature controlled. We can’t appreciate that enough! Also, between the time we booked SRL and our wedding day, they installed a gorgeous pavilion that replaced their prior outdoor tent for the reception space. It really was a tremendous addition to the venue and pulled everything together. The day of our wedding was also a little bit chilly so being able to close the walls/doors on the pavilion was great. The only cons I had about our days are not deal breakers, but I hope they will read this and consider changing for the future: 1. The “room block” we receive as part of the package did not truly offer any kind of discounted rate for our guests that wanted to use the block. The guests could have booked the rooms as a normal guest and would have received the same rate, so there was no benefit in using the “block” besides grouping the rooms near each other (which didn’t really help since a majority of the guests didn’t know each other). 2. The bridal suite is only included for free on the night of the wedding. That is indeed very generous and helpful, but if you are getting ready with your bridesmaids early the day of (which most brides do), you will need to book the room the night before as well since check-in is in the late afternoon. I think the venue should offer the room as a complimentary gesture in order to cover the night before and the night of so that the wedding party can properly make use of the room. 3. The wait staff took people’s food from the table a little bit early. Some people wish they had a chance to finish the amazing food from Villaggio! 4. The staff didn’t put any dessert down on our sweetheart table. Some of my bridesmaids made sure to get us a few things before they ran out and leave it on our table. Obviously as bride and groom, it’s hard to find a minute to grab desserts so if the staff could have done it, it would be have really helpful. 5. I also would encourage the bridal suite/room to have a hook to hang the dress 😊 I ended up hanging it off the shower head since there wasn’t any designated hook high enough off the floor. Overall, I would get married at SRL a million times over. We had the absolute best day and experience from A to Z. THANK YOU TO THE ENTIRE TEAM!!!!

They were very helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process and made our dreams become reality. Our guests enjoyed staying on the property as well! The ceremony location is breathtaking and having a covered, climate-controlled reception area was so nice. They made everything look beautiful and ensured we felt special throughout our whole wedding weekend. Thank you, Sky Ranch Team!

g about that night. 10/10 recommend getting married here. I do not have one complaint. 😊

over the view from our room and ceremony spot. Also, the bed in our suite was seriously the best mattress I've ever slept on. The staff was amazing on our wedding day. I had a vision for how I wanted my decorations and they nailed it. Natalie, our coordinator was so helpful in many ways. She went above and beyond what I expected. The pricing for the venue was very reasonable considering everything that comes with it.

isit and Tiffany dropped everything to spend hours with us. She became our wedding planner/coordinator and truly exceeded our expectations to bring our vision to life. We had 150 guests which definitely stretched the capacity of the venue (I probably would not recommend over 130), but Tiffany was incredibly flexible up to the very last minute at making it all work out for us. We created a pretty complex wedding with details that changed literally up until the end. Tiffany worked with us to bring our vision to life, and she filled in all the little pieces that we didn't think of or couldn't plan for. On top of coordinating all the many details, Tiffany just did a phenomenal job at making us feel special. Our family was even talking about Tiffany for weeks after the wedding. The venue has a few restrictions but they were flexible to provide workarounds for us and we didn't find them to take away from our special day. Namely, the music level limit turned out to be a non-issue (we had a rockin party) and the fact that hard alcohol is not allowed in the venue (they strictly enforce this due to liquor laws, but allow you to bring anything you want elsewhere on the property). Max was definitely the co-star of the event, going out of his way to do everything possible to make our room block work (we had half the property), being such a friendly bartender, and even bringing our hotel room keys to the afterparty after we left them who knows where! I would like to give the venue credit because they are clearly upping their game. The quality of everything improved consistently from the time we considered the venue until our wedding, and they continue to enhance it. I believe there is new leadership who really understands what the place needs. My only complaint was with how the rooms were handled. Something happened the night before the wedding and all of our rooms got moved around. The front desk did not handle it well the day of check in, leaving at least one family member in tears. The hotel shuttle was also not available, and the front desk staff was not apologetic nor did they even try to find an alternative. This left several family members without a way to get food the day before our wedding and added significant stress to our day. We also attempted to check in early because we had a busy wedding weekend, and while we knew early was not guaranteed, it was a little odd that the wedding couple's room was not prioritized. As stated elsewhere in the reviews, they promise a room discount but that is really deceiving - your guests get the same rate anyone would get online, which the hotel considers a "direct booking" discount. I found this incredibly deceptive, but decided to overlook it because we wanted everyone on property. If the hotel operations were cleaned up I think this would be the absolute perfect venue. And to be very fair, every staff other staff member was consistently friendly and helpful. The rooms themselves were clean and comfortable and the garden area and pool/hot tub were enjoyed by all of our guests (even later than the posted hours, which we very much appreciated). I recommend an organized morning hike for your guests before the wedding! And of course this is a pilot's dream, since you can fly in and walk about 5 minutes to the venue. In summary... anyone would be incredibly lucky to have Tiffany plan their wedding. Our guests are still raving.

ntgomery, our wedding planner, we knew we were in the best hands. Natalie met with us via zoom every month for a year. We couldn't have done this without her help. The venue has the best views of the red rocks and is the perfect spot for a wedding and reception.

r and did such an excellent job confirming details, providing us with a referral to an incredible florist, coordinating with vendors for a seamless day of, guiding us on tips and tricks during our rehearsal, calming me down when we freaked out that it may rain (seriously SRL has clear umbrellas at the ready if needed, they think of everything!), and best of all, her and all the staff were so incredibly kind. They set up the venue perfectly and even boxed up our decorations exactly as provided the following day. It also helps that the venue is unbeatable, it was by far the best scenic view and pavilion set up of all the venues we looked at in Sedona. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful SRL is and how incredibly helpful and kind the entire team was at SRL!

y for months prior to the wedding made for a very smooth wedding day, Tiffany knew our likes and dislikes and which one of us to turn to with certain questions. If I could give Tiffany more stars, I would! This is a pretty pricey venue, but it was definitely worth it for us. One of the main reasons we chose this venue was the view (duh!) and the freedom to choose whatever vendors we wanted. At other Sedona venues they required you choose from their list of vendors only - so make sure to be aware of this wherever you choose. One of the best things about this venue is the shuttle/van that can take you the the airport vortex for sunset pictures on your wedding night - highly recommend! Our wedding had two brides (and now two wives!) and Sky Ranch was very inclusive in terms of attitude, behavior, and support.

hey will go out of their way to make sure that you have the absolute best experience there. My wife and I chose Skyranch lodge because of the beautiful views, but we got way more than that for our wedding. In just four months of planning, Shannon was able to help guide us and put together the wedding of our dreams. Four months, y’all! that is not much time at all or butts. This wonderful woman went out of her way to make sure everything was right. She is passionate about what she does and does a great job. She made wedding planning a breeze. Thank you Shannon! Now let’s talk about the lodge itself. Upon arrival, the staff greeted us with positive loving energy, and a smile. Everyone was so welcoming and accommodating. We stayed in a rim view room and woke up each morning to the most amazing views. The rooms were clean, the beds were comfortable and the staff helped us with whatever we needed. The gardens in the lodge were beautiful. My wife and I sat for hours by the pool and in the garden just loving the energy. Thank you Thomas for being welcoming and being so accommodating to us and all of our guests for the wedding. Now the wedding. The wedding ceremony site made me cry. Lol. Ask Shannon, she’ll tell you all about it. But seriously, the ceremony site was perfect. We had a small wedding of 60 people but it can definitely accommodate more like 150 to 200. the chairs and set up were beautiful and everything flowed so easily. The barn area for the reception had a very warm and loving energy to it. Sky Ranch Lodge, provided tables and chairs, along with all types of in-house decorations. When I say that they have pretty much everything in stock, I mean, they literally have pretty much everything in stock. Everything was beautiful. In conclusion, I would highly highly highly recommend sky Ranch Lodge for your wedding. It might not be the fanciest hotel in Sedona, but I promise you that they will provide you the best experience for your wedding. I cannot wait to go back and see all those lovely faces and views of the red rocks. Not going to lie, I’ll probably cry again lol thank you Shannon, thank you Thomas and thank you to all of sky Ranch Lodge. HAVE YOUR WEDDING HERE!!!!

ams. I would say the most impressive part was the fact that someone answered my emails no matter what time of day it was. Shannon's attention to detail made our wedding day go on without a hiccup. When we first got to the property, there was a Wedding Welcome Sign at the front desk with little axes on the sign (my husband owns an axe throwing business). I told them my name and everyone lit up, knowing that I was the bride. Our Wedding Suite was a rim view room with the Red Rocks as the spectacular view every morning waking up. The location is right next to an overlook to view the entire city of West Sedona. There was a trail leading to a vortex - Airport Mesa. There was always coffee in the front, warm fresh-baked cookies in the morning, and also a refill station for my water bottle. The botanical garden was peaceful, and the pool was warmed for our kids to play. The wedding office was always open with someone sitting there to help us answer questions. On the day of the wedding, the barn was open for us to utilize for the groom to get ready. The view is unforgettable and the new pavilion is beautiful. There were warmers within the pavilion for the chilly nights so all my guests were comfortable. I cannot express how grateful I am towards the entire Sky Ranch Lodge staff and team for making our wedding the best day of our lives. Even our guests felt the energy that day. We highly recommend Sky Ranch Lodge, not only as a wedding venue, but as a place to stay if you're in town visiting. We definitely will be back!!!!

redible and the new pavilion was great when it got too cold outside. Our whole party always felt cared for enjoyed the wedding and their stay. The wedding suite was a great addition to our experience. Only feedback I do have is that the room block discount wasn't really added for our guests in the end. But other than that, I wouldn't change a thing. I will be recommending not only Tiffany and her team, but also the Sky Ranch Lodge to everyone I know!!

oughtful, detail oriented, and one of the most kind-hearted people I have ever worked with. She made sure every little detail was exactly how we hoped it would be. She made this such a personalized experience that we felt like she became part of the family. The wedding went so smoothly and everyone had a great time. We got a ton of compliments on the beautiful venue and the event set up done by the Sky Ranch team. Absolute perfection! Thank you Sky Ranch and Shannon for making our day so perfect and the planning process such a fun experience.

ple. We booked the venue about 6 weeks out and our coordinator was up for the challenge! Tiffany and her team did such a wonderful job making every detail just perfect. As the bride, I knew I didn’t have anything to worry about and could focus on the experience! Our wedding was a dream come true at the Sky Ranch Lodge! Absolutely recommend!!!

hout the planning process. Things went so smoothly because of their willingness to go above and beyond when it came to our wedding. The views are some of the best Sedona has to offer and a photographer's dream. We were fortunate that we got to use the new renovations to their reception area, which were perfect for our quaint celebration. Our guests loved the bar crew and we had a blast dancing the night away under the pavilion. I would highly recommend Tiffany and the rest of the wedding team there. They know how to make a bride feel at ease and create the wedding of your dreams! I wish I could do it all over again because it was the most perfect day!!!

e as well as how personable and friendly the staff were. We felt the staff was incredibly helpful from the beginning, and that they truly did enjoy and have passion for what they were doing and not just trying to make a sale. Natalie continued to communicate with us regularly throughout the planning process leading up to the wedding to ensure everything ran smoothly and was setup just the way we wanted. My wife and I could not have been happier with how everything turned out! I'm not usually one to wrote reviews regularly, but Sky Ranch really did go above and beyond to make our wedding as special as possible.

on top of EVERYTHING, she was so thorough in our meetings leading up to our big day, getting down to every little detail to make sure it was perfect and exactly the way we wanted. I can truthfully say SHE is the reason our day was as perfect as it was. Secondly, the rest of the staff was great. Set up was done perfectly, the bartenders were so much fun, break down staff had everything together in one spot, easy for us to grab the next day + left us no worries that night! Third, the venue itself is absolutely STUNNING. Though the views were our top selling point, Sky Ranch’s packages were so inclusive in regard to $$ toward DJ/catering/floral, it saved us SO much money.

eath taking pavilion. We couldn’t have asked to spend this memorial moment anywhere else. If you’re contemplating this venue look no further because it was a dream come true!

ughter and son-in-law so that no detail would be overlooked. Then on their wedding day they both woke up sick with Covid! Shannon and her team saved the day by working hours to rearrange seating and contacting all the vendors to make changes to make it a safe event. It is Shannon’s can-do, sweet attitude that makes her so special. We feel like everyone at Sky Ranch Lodge is like family now. Despite the unwelcome guest of Covid, the wedding and reception were just wonderful. This place is one of the most beautiful venues I’ve ever seen, high up above the town of Sedona, with outstanding views of the red rocks. How I wish every couple could get married here!

py we chose Sky Ranch Lodge to celebrate our special day! Natalie was our Events Coordinator - she was so kind and helpful throughout the whole process! Planning a wedding in just a few months was very overwhelming, but Natalie always made sure we were taken care of! This really meant a lot and took a load off of my shoulders! We want to thank the whole Sky Ranch team for making our wedding special and allowing us to start our journey as husband and wife with fond memories! We got to meet Rusty and his humor at the Sky Ranch bar the night before our wedding and he had some amazing complimentary popcorn on deck. We raved over it and he surprised us with some on our big day, which was so kind! John was also great and funny as well - thank you so so much for introducing us during our grand entrance! This really meant a ton! Natalie was truly special! I have nothing but love for her and all the hard work she put into our wedding! From the very start she displayed such great qualities and always offered her help - even the night before when I told her my necklace was left back home (which was out of town), she responded to me straight away and asked around her group of friends to help me find one! I didn’t expect that at all and I was moved by her kindness. Sky Ranch has such a wonderful team of people who make sure your day is special! It’s really the little things that make a big impact. There was never a doubt at all that our big day was in good hands - with all that we experienced, the level of service exceeded our expectations. We were also taken aback by the beautiful view from the venue and our bridal suite. Thank you so much, Sky Ranch Lodge! We hope to see you all again soon!

osely with Shannon for almost 2 years planning our May 2022 wedding. She was an absolute rockstar! Incredibly attentive and kind and funny and bubbly and SO easy to work with. She is seriously every brides dream. Throughout the 2 years we have numerous zoom calls, email exchanges, texts, phone calls to plan our destination wedding and she made it so easy considering it was 2000 miles away! Aside from the iconic and breathtaking views of Sedona and the beautiful botanical and lush gardens Sky Ranch has to offer as a venue there is a whole lot more to it. Sky Ranch offers a number of rentals included and others you can upgrade to, a bridal suite right next to the venue which I can't even tell you how helpful that was to have, they provide bartenders, security and event coordinators your day of. Shannon again was just a superstar on the wedding day. Always checking in at the right time (never the wrong time) was on top of everything that was going down. I knew that she knew exactly what I wanted and she was taking care of everything. Most of the time without me even noticing. The bartending staff and all other support staff from Sky Ranch Lodge were such a joy to have at our wedding, even in the background. Everyone had smiles on their faces at all times and just made the atmosphere that much more merrier. Words just can't do this place and the people justics. I hope the pictures I'm including will convey how perfect of a day it was. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!!!

ess SEAMLESS. From planning to execution, they made sure everything went to plan on our special day. I could write a million good things to say on here. Ashley was so responsive to our emails and asked the small detailed questions to make sure everything was how we wanted it. Shannon was right there along her side. Seriously, get married at Sky Ranch Lodge. You will have the best day of your life.

ter where you are. We went to 4 venues, and the moment we walked onto sky ranches property we knew, this was the place we were going to get married. The views are just breathtaking. From the rooms, from the venue, to be honest everywhere on property, you are just left speechless. The hotel is walking distance from some AMAZING hikes, Mesa Grill (an amazing restaurant serving breakfast lunch and dinner), a wine bar with the best bartenders, a beautiful pool and botanical gardens with tons of seating and places to explore on property! Where do I even start with Sky Ranch wedding staff?! If i could give them 10 stars I would!! These girls are seriously incredible. Ashley was our primary coordinator and she is an actual angel! She was there for us in every way possible. The amount of calls, emails, questions I had leading up to the big day was insane. She was ALWAYS there for us with no delay/hesitation. She was so helpful and gracious, she made the entire process leading up to the wedding so stress free!! Natalie and Shannon were also amazing, stepping in and helping if Ashley wasn't around! The day of our wedding- I seriously can't rave ENOUGH! Ashley and Shannon made my dream wedding come true. The set up was PERFECTION! The entire day/ night ran SO smooth. They were checking in with me and my husband to see if we needed anything when we didn't even realize we needed anything! Feeding us, getting us coronas and water and sweets! They were just so supportive and helped in any way they could. Our wedding was April 23rd, and since that day we have heard from SO many guests that it was hands down best wedding they have ever gone too. My family is already talking about doing our next reunion at sky ranch! I could go on and on about this place and how perfect they are. If you are looking at booking sky ranch- DO IT. I can't name a SINGLE reason why you shouldn't. Natalie, Shannon, and especially Ashley- THANK YOU. From the bottom of our hearts- you made the best day of our lives even more special than we imagined!

ock landscape, it's literally centered around a true Botanical Garden, it's right next to the Airport and all the best hiking; and the venue coordinators were extremely helpful. They went above and beyond. They not only cleaned up after our Bridal Party lady's had made a mess of the to-be Newlywed Suite, but they also decorated it with flower petals and champagne.. It was absolutely the best day of our lives, and I'm beyond grateful for finding Sky Ranch for our memorable Big Day. We'll be visiting frequently for the years to come just to try re-live our spectacular day. We're obsessed with Sky Ranch to say the least.

riendly and personable from start to finish, and I truly felt I struck GOLD with Shannon as my coordinator. She went above and beyond to bring my dreams to life. Thanks to Shannon my planning process and big day was 100% stress free. Seriously- I can't imagine the day without her! I cannot say enough great things about this venue and the beautiful people who work there. Trust me when I say you get a lot more than incredible views ( and photos ;) ) with this venue. Forever grateful to Sky Ranch Lodge and Shannon for the best experience a bride could ask for <3

s the BEST wedding coordinator I could have asked for. From start to finish my day was perfect. They did not miss one detail, they even came and cleaned/picked up my room after we got ready so when I came back from luxuries with my bridesmaid it was back to spotless. The renovated rooms are to dream for along with the amazing balcony view! My wedding day went so smoothly thanks to the wedding staff!

be married and with the airport lookout being our favorite view there was only one spot we looked, Sky Ranch! We booked this venue for the view, but was provided the best wedding experience ever! The view from the venue site is gorgeous, the staff is INCREDIBLE and so nice, Shannon is absolutely amazing…they took my vision and brought it to life. I had zero, I repeat, ZERO stress going into my wedding and none day of because I knew Shannon and the team had it covered. The day of was the best day ever, nothing short of perfect, and I can’t thank Sky Ranch enough for that. Eric and I appreciate all of you!!

king the wedding even better. I would highly recommend Sky Ranch Lodge for your wedding. It was beautiful, romantic and everyone had a great time.

stress free. The staff was always on top of things and required very little follow up. They were always very responsive even through staffing changes. The images of this venue do not do it justice. I was blown away seeing it for the first time. Stunning views of the red rocks and beautiful hotel grounds.

ned! The view is incredible & all of our guests raved about the professionalism of the SRL team. I would recommend every bride look at sky ranch lodge for a potential venue! You won’t be disappointed!

ried. The staff, Mikeala Ashley and the other lovely wedding coordinator, were accommodating throughout the entire process going out of their way to answer my many questions. I brought all of my own decor for the reception and they set it up beyond my expectations. On top of the actual set up they were wonderful about working with our vendors, the officiant, the photographer, the violinist and caterer to make sure they had what they needed to make the ceremony run smoothly. I couldn't be happier that we chose the Sky Ranch Lodge to celebrate our special day. The pricing was quite fair as well. It could not have been more perfect. We will have these beautiful memories for the rest of our lives. Thank you Sky Ranch!

the wedding is past, i can tell you the views were great, but it doesn’t hold a candle to how amazing the team is at sky ranch lodge. They truly were the highlight of our wedding weekend. Ashely worked with me on months leading up to it. Then when the day came, her and her counter part Leora were a dream! They were genuinely excited for us and felt like family. I genuinely missed them once the wedding was over! They did all our set up and take down. They helped with all my crazy ideas and really helped to make it everything we wanted. Thank you ladies for making our wedding more Amazing than we could have ever dreamed of!

elf and coupled with the cozy reception area, we were sold. It is all outdoors, which is what we wanted. We started working with Leora a little bit after we booked the venue and she is was fantastic to work with. We had some concerns with the permanent tent that went up, as we booked it without it and wanted it open air, but she went above and beyond to make sure that we would have a fabulous wedding and ensure it would be gorgeous - and it was! Then when covid came along, she bent over backwards for us to ensure that we booked a new wedding date as we had to postpone. She responded to emails and calls so quickly, and really cared that this wedding would be our dream wedding. We really were so impressed with how she made us feel cared for, accommodated and honestly not just like another bride/groom - but more personal. When our wedding day came, it was FANTASTIC! Seriously we will never stop talking about this venue, nor will our guests - it was the most beautiful day at the most beautiful venue. In the evening, the twinkle lights in the tent were romantic and gorgeous, and the space was just perfect. We rented our ceremony chairs and farm tables from SRL and we're so happy we did because they really fit what we were looking for. Thank you Leora, and everyone at SRL for making our dream wedding real :) If they are available -- book it! You and your guests won't be disappointed!

making your big day a special experience. My husband and I had both our ceremony and reception at Sky Ranch, which made it easy for guests to enjoy themselves without having to travel to multiple locations. We loved having our reception in the beautiful tent that Sky Ranch provides (the chandeliers and lights make it truly breathtaking). Our guests enjoyed having a bar on site and dancing the night away under the tent. Many guests stayed at the hotel and made a fun weekend out of it. Thank you Sky Ranch for such an amazing wedding weekend. - Marissa & Pat Gibbens

Apart from the venue being beautiful, the staff is stellar and went above and beyond to accommodate us! We can’t recommend this venue enough!

r the first time, we knew this is where we wanted to tie the knot. The red rock views are absolutely unparalleled, the staff is professional and cordial, and the rustic charm is endearing. Leora, who was our wedding coordinator, had been there alongside us from day one helping to line everything up for a magical evening. She maintained fluid communication with us all the way through the day of the event for two full years and made sure all of our questions were answered. Not to mention that her and her husband were instrumental in orchestrating the event the day of by coordinating numerous resources that made our night flow flawlessly. My husband and I are extremely grateful for the hospitality, patience, and genuineness of everyone at Sky Ranch Lodge and the Sedona Sky Weddings team as without them our dream wedding would not have played out as beautifully as it did!

Read ALL the reviews please. Yes, it’s a beautiful venue but don’t be surprised by their last minutes changes and actions AFTER you sign the contract.........I Could go on and on but do your homework and research first, trust me. Your wedding day should be the most important and special day of your life but unfortunately Sky Ranch doesn’t feel the same. Although, they will tell you differently but don’t disagree with their wrongful actions.

is is!! The venue agreed to rent a clear tent for our wedding when we booked the venue in April 2018 for our wedding in October 2019. June 2019: I was informed that I was now being forced to use the venue’s new white tent and that I didn’t have a say in the matter what so ever. I couldn’t even choose not to have a tent even if I didn’t want it. I chose to move forward and make the best of it. July 2019: my mother and I called for clarification on our room block as MANY of our guests had issues booking rooms (they were told that there wasn’t a room block at all). The wedding coordinator became irritated with us and promptly emailed me informing me that my wedding (which was about 3 MONTHS away) was now CANCELLED and that they were refunding my money. HOW CAN SOMEBODY DO THIS TO SOMEONE, LET ALONE TO A BRIDE?!?!?!?!?!?! I tried calling for hours (sobbing mind you) to get ahold of someone for clarification and to try and figure out what went wrong. NO ONE responded for hours. After about 3 hours of me and my husband trying to recover our wedding and speaking with the owner of the venue (also threatening LEGAL action) it was decided they would allow us to get married there after all. After crying all day about my wedding being CANCELLED and the SICK people that run this place (LEORA, VICTORIA, SHAINA, & THE OWNER) I couldn’t fathom having my wedding there. We were able to book our wedding at THE BARN AT UVX IN COTTONWOOD and we had the most beautiful wedding I could have ever dreamt of with a staff that was kind and professional! What I have left to say about Sky Ranch is this: Run away as fast as you can. You will never be able to consistently get someone on the phone. The staff turns over about every 3 months. The rooms are old and very outdated, even the “newly renovated rooms” (I saw them during our initial tour). The grounds are plain and also outdated. They do not practice business in any form of good faith. The view is NOT worth the heartache you will endure with this venue.

oordinator and point of contact during the planning process and she was just great. She was setting up and there during the whole ceremony and reception for anything we may have needed. The bridal suite was right next to the wedding area which made things super easy for us to take a minute to ourselves or change. The crew was so efficient in setting up chairs for the ceremony and then quickly taking them to the reception area for our guests.

imes struggle to get ahold of the lodge front desk staff for questions concerning the guest accommodations, but for the most part all staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were recently renovated and were very nice, and the rooms with the balconies and mountain views were especially stunning. We were so happy with our choice to hold our ceremony and reception at Sky Ranch! Note: we had a late May wedding date and the weather was perfect for us (sunny and 75 for the high, about 60 degrees at night) but the days leading up to our date were rainy and colder than we’d have expected (highs in the 50s) so that is something to keep in mind when considering weather and time of year.

there isn't a separate room for the groom to get ready. The bridal party gets ready in the hotel room, but the groom has to find his own.

odge. I would argue that they have the best view in Sedona. We booked a March special which came with local vendors. This was perfect because it is a small town and it helps that everyone knows each other and has worked together, it made communication very stress free. When we had any questions arise, Bernadette and Angela would find us answers. The location is great and all of your guests can stay on the property, plus your furry friends which we loved! We rented the tent from Verve rentals per their recommendation which was perfect because it was cooler and the tent provided a warm eating and dancing area while still allowing the views of the stars. They also provide a shuttle which was great for transportation to the rehearsal dinner. I've read the previous reviews and I would definitely recommend having a wedding coordinator or at least a day of coordinator, because although they provide a lot of support a wedding is a big event and the more help, the less stress there is for the bride. All I can say is, on the big day the staff of Sky Ranch Lodge made mine and my husband's dreams come true and they had everything prepared for us.

with our contract, and not a single one knew anything about our wedding ceremony. Then came along Bernadette. She has to be the most difficult "consultant/coordinator" I have ever dealt with in my life. Any time we had questions, it took days, if not a week, to respond. And, when we did finally hear back, it was a snippy response and didnt even answer the question. She lied to us about the management team being involved in our account, and made us pay for the bridal suite out of spite when we chose to not have our ceremony there. She doesn't fully disclose anything, and the number of hidden fees that arose were the cause for the relocation of our reception. The week of the wedding, Bernadette threatened to cancel our ceremony because I was trying to get her to apply an overage payment to the rentals. The day of our wedding, there was a tent left up from another event, and they had no intention of getting it taken down. I paid for heaters, and they were nowhere to be found- they also tried to overcharge me for the chairs. We found out minutes before the ceremony began that we had access to the bridal suite all day, and had to get ready in a guest's room. We were also suppose to have one of the site's coordinators with us all day, bit she was no where to be seen until we gathered for the beginning of the ceremony. That night, there was a SCORPION IN BED WITH ME!!! Don't get me wrong, the site itself is breathtaking, but the stress and tears that come along with it are definitely not worth it.

completed prior to the wedding date. Throughout the process and with the new hire of wedding coordinator, Leora, and staff at the Sky Ranch, made all details, big and small, as hassle free as possible. They were responsive to our emails, and phone calls whenever we had questions. When we went up to Sedona (we live in Phoenix area) to see the venue, Leora and staff were there to assist in any way we needed. It was an amazing venue to have our daughter's dream wedding!

ng. The views are the best in Sedona. It couldn’t have been a more perfect day. Thank you Leora and Sky Ranch. We will definitely be back. Jon and Maria
