Rambling Rose Ranch was the perfect venue for our wedding! The unique, all-outdoor space is absolutely stunning, with majestic and organic landscaping that created a magical atmosphere. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the venue was—and they especially loved getting to pet the horses and donkeys during cocktail hour, which added such a fun and memorable touch. We opted for the fire pit experience to offer s'mores for the kids, and it was a huge hit! Sandy and Morgan were incredibly flexible and accommodating, helping us bring our vision to life, including the use of confetti poppers. We also loved having the convenience of getting ready on-site in their bride and groom suites, which made the day stress-free. The outdoor lighting was just perfect, and with the addition of candles on the tables, the event couldn’t have been more romantic. The only required vendor is their bartenders, and we had a good experience with them. Sandy and Morgan were wonderful to work with—they were communicative, professional, and collaborated seamlessly with our coordinator. We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Rambling Rose Ranch and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and breathtaking wedding venue!

This was the second venue that we toured, and the moment we stepped out of the car, we knew we had to book this for our wedding. Every inch of this place tells a story and has an amazing vibe. Matt and Renee were a dream to work with. They understood our vision and tried to make any ideas we had work. It happened to be the one time in Texas it rained for our day (of course!), but it actually turned out to be stunning weather. They were so fast shifting between rain and sun plans, still accommodated what we had in mind while also ensuring our guests were taken care of. They have amazing connections with people in the wedding business, literally every recco we went with they provided was perfect. I still am depressed about the day being over because it was just that good. I will forever recommend this venue - you truly can't go wrong.

The venue is an absolute dream! We cannot recommend this place enough. It’s only about 30 minutes from downtown Austin so we provided shuttles for our guests to get to the venue. It was so easy! The beauty of AG is unmatched. The bridal suite is so dreamy - If you want or need a large space to get ready in the morning, then this is your spot. I felt so relaxed and taken care of there. The staff were so kind and helpful throughout the crazy year of wedding planning. I really enjoyed working with Madeline, she answered all my questions and made sure everything ran smoothly on their end. We can’t say enough good things about AG - if you are wavering, do not!
