“We truly couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding day. We were able to stay at Shadows for the long weekend - which allowed us to set up and DIY most our wedding. Our family and closest friends got to stay with us on the property for the weekend, which made it feel so much more special - and made us feel like we had so much time to take our wedding weekend in with everyone (rather that just one day). The venue was so spacious, which made the event feel large and free - rather than everyone being on top of each other. We used the following spaces for each part of our wedding: - Backyard grass and overlook - Ceremony - Front yard grass - Dinner & Speaches - Barn - Desserts, Snacks, Seating / Lounge Area, Guest Book - Barn Deck - Dancefloor & DJ We worked with Scena as our day-of coordinator and she was THE BEST! Helped so much with timeline, setup, coordination, rehersal, clean up - EVERYTHING! Truly could not say enough good things about her.”

“Union Brick By Wedgewood Weddings was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the beginning, their communication was quick, detailed, open and honest, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with a great value for the large and versatile space. Amanda, our event pre-wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of - she answered every question, email and call, and was always there for my husband, myself and my mom. On the day of the wedding, Kayla, our day-of coordinator, was detailed, thorough and wonderful, making sure everything ran smoothly. Our banquet staff and bartenders were also attentive and made sure we and our guests were taken care of all night long. We are so grateful to the Union Brick team for making our special day truly perfect.”

“I dont know how to do this place, or this woman, justice. But Im going to try! Lone Wulff Ranch was the first venue my husband and I toured. We toured others, but I think a part of me had already decided. I swear, that tree must have put some kind of spell on me. From our first visit, Rachel was personable, professional, and genuinely engaged. She shared her familys history, answered our questions, and made us feel like more than another tour. No comparison. We loved knowing we were supporting Rachel and her family rather than a corporation. As beautiful as the property is, RACHEL is what makes Lone Wulff Ranch extraordinary. I was a prettyyyy specific bride. Type A-ish, unconventional, and full of ideas! I wanted the ceremony benches arranged differently, mini horses, my classic Lincoln, a tattoo trailer, and an ivory grand PIANO delivered beneath the tree. Rachel never made me feel difficult. She gave honest guidance and embraced my vision WITH me. When she realized I was actually serious about that piano, she got excited too! And that magnificent tree? There was something almost biblical about it. Something sacred. It appeared on our invitations, website, and custom wax seal. I loved it so much I got it tattooed on my hand afterward. So I guess you could say the place made an impression. The flexibility of the venue was invaluable. We customized our package and accommodations to reflect US. The bridal cottage was PERFECT. Weekend access gave us time for setup, rehearsal, celebrating, and cleanup. The main house let us keep celebrating with our closest people after the reception. I genuinely have NO idea how couples manage with a venue for only one day! But heres what I really want future couples to understand. Rachel goes FAR beyond what she is hired, paid, or expected to do. When we had vendor challenges, Rachel stepped in despite us hiring a planner to handle them. She coordinated, advocated for me, and put out fires that were NEVER hers to put out. She checked on me and supported me when things got overwhelming. Rachel understands that the little things AND the big things matter. Because you get ONE shot at this. ONE. You dont get to redo your wedding day because someone dropped the ball. She was engaged before, during, AND after our wedding. She recommended our photographer, Lexi, and was right about our perfect match! Both were my rocks. When everything was over, I didnt feel defeated or ready to escape. No wedding blues. I felt calm, relaxed, and overwhelmingly grateful. We left with incredible memories and a new friend. Weddings are EXPENSIVE. But what Rachel and her family have cultivated at Lone Wulff Ranch is worth more than gold. The property, services, and flexibility are worth every penny. But her care, commitment, compassion, and willingness to show up when she absolutely didnt have to? THAT is priceless. After our wedding, I genuinely wished I could give Rachel the world. No amount of money could repay what she gave us. She helped protect moments we can never get back and turn things Id only imagined into memories well carry forever. My goal was to have THE BEST wedding anyone had ever been to, and pull off something Id dreamed of my whole life. WE DID THAT! If youre considering Lone Wulff Ranch, GO. Meet Rachel. Stand under that magnificent tree. Just be careful. It might put a spell on you, too.”
