We are a family of dreamers.
In 1996, my parents, Tim and Patty Mudge, dreamed of opening their own cattle ranch, and so Mudge Ranch was born. Today, three generations live and work together breeding cattle, growing hay, and maintaining this charming, 10,000 square foot facility.
Years later, after celebrating several family weddings on site, I dreamed of a unique space in which more brides and grooms could tie the knot, and so The Venue at Mudge Ranch became a reality.
Hi there! I am Becky Mudge Black and The Venue truly is my dream come true. Along with my husband, Jeremy, and brother, Chad, we have created a perfect place for any event, a rustic barn built on a foundation of pride, passion, and love.
Our facility is much more than an operational farm these days; it is a venue in which dreams come true even before you say, "I do". Beautifully maintained and offering a variety of picturesque views, The Venue at Mudge Ranch is sure to be the perfect backdrop for your wedding day
We offer one day rentals, included is a spacious bridal room, grooms retreat, unique Fire Pit area with bench swings, air-conditioned multi-stall restrooms, large food prep area with 17x8 ft walk-in cooler, and several different ceremony areas to choose from.
Our barn is almost 10,000 sq ft with over 7,000 sq ft of open seating for your reception. All the rooms are under the barn, just in case of rain, you are covered under one roof. This means you and your guests stay dry even with our crazy Florida weather.
Here at the ranch, we pride ourselves on having a beautiful facility and continue to maintain and improve every day. Let your forever start at Mudge Ranch.

From the moment we toured our venue, we knew it was something special but seeing everything come together on our wedding day was beyond anything we could have imagined. The propert...
y itself is absolutely gorgeous, and the setup was truly beyond words. Every detail was beautiful, organized, and handled so professionally.
The entire team genuinely knows what they’re doing, and it made such a huge difference throughout the planning process and on the wedding day itself. They were incredibly flexible, accommodating, and willing to work with us whenever we needed it, which meant so much during such a stressful time.
Our wedding day felt completely stress free because of them. Everything flowed so smoothly, and we were actually able to relax and enjoy every moment instead of worrying about behind the scenes details. I honestly can’t express enough how thankful we are for everything they did to make our day so perfect. We will forever recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful place with an amazing team behind it.

I cannot say enough amazing things about The Venue at Mudge Ranch. The tour was obviously our first impression and it was wonderful. We were there for over 2 hours, with Becky (the...
owner) who broke down everything in extreme detail for us. We immediately fell in love with the venue. It had so much charm. Planning the wedding was more simple than I expected, especially with Danielle the incredible wedding coordinator. She answered every silly question I had throughout the whole process with such clarity and patience. She made me feel understood. We also did our decor through the venue which Becky handled and designed with me, and it was perfect and stunning and everything I had envisioned for our day. The wedding day, was so peaceful leading up to the big moment of walking down the aisle. They handled everything from start to finish! I don’t know what I would have done without Danielle on the day of, she is so comforting and reassuring and she was the calm to my chaos. The venue itself is breathtaking and so enchanting and our wedding was everything I’ve dreamt of and more!!! Thank you everyone at Mudge Ranch for giving us the most beautiful memories - love always, Jeffery & Brooke Arthur (11/21/25 wedding

d the venue with Becky where she answered all of our questions and we quickly fell in love with the venue! The venue itself is beautiful, from the big barn, to the ceremony area, to the well maintained property & oaks. Becky was my day of coordinator and she was so beyond helpful with setting up a timeline, ensuring everything ran smoothly & allowing me to truly be in the moment and enjoy my day. She was super responsive to all of my questions and never made me feel like a burden. She stayed one step ahead of me the entire day, taking care of things that hadn’t even became a thought in my head yet. The event staff that helped during the ceremony and reception was also phenomenal! They were so kind and attentive to my husband & I, making sure we got plates of food and our drinks refilled. They were so efficient at cleaning up after dinner and allowed our guests and I to ease right into dancing. When planning my wedding, I was told by numerous people that the venue and the vendors you choose will make all of the difference on your wedding day. I am so glad that we chose Becky and her crew at the Venue of Mudge Ranch and I would make the same choice a million times over again!

y the peaceful beauty of the location. They have everything you would need for any size wedding including perfect bridal suites for the girls and guys to get ready in. Additionally, we loved the fact that they are an all-inclusive venue was very appealing to us as it made the vendor process and pricing much easier and affordable. Their staff was easy to work with and helped make our big day beautiful, especially their in-house coordinator Danielle. If you are looking for a rustic-style venue in SWFL, this is the one!

Where to begin? Becky and her team have crafted such a unique and carefree experience for their brides and wedding couples. Let's just forget that the venue is absolutely gorgeous....
One visit there and you will be hooked! But this team approaches the wedding craze with a personal touch. I was looking for a venue that was affordable, but I also wanted to find a venue that was close to all-inclusive, since I'm not a wedding person. Mudge Ranch has created such a unique experience that, if you would like, they will coordinate with every vendor you need for your wedding. You can use their selection of vendors they have or you can find your own. Their wedding coordinator, Danielle, is fabulous as well! Mudge Ranch took all the work out of my wedding. All I had to do was show up. I have absolutely no regrets on choosing Mudge Ranch as my wedding venue. Becky and her team are the absolute best and would do it with them all over again !

This is a great venue and I have worked in many different venues. This was my nephews wedding and I was in charge of the decorations and setup! We had planned for 300 guest and had...
closer to 400 show up. Ceremony was to be held outside until weather changed plans. Becky and her crew saw that everything was moved inside in the hour that I was gone to get dressed as this was a family wedding for me.
Everything turned out beautiful and wedding started only 10 minutes late.
I would recommend this to anyone looking for a venue that can accommodate such a large number of guests and keep everyone dry in case of rain.?
