Could not say enough good things about our experience getting married at Trail Creek Ranch. We wish we could do it all over again! We had the most unimaginable day thanks to Alex and the Trail Creek Ranch team who were so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our big day. From helping coordinate the perfect locations on the ranch for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, making recommendations for who to work with in the area, and helping coordinate all the details behind the scenes with our vendors leading up to and on our wedding day, we could not have asked for a better experience. The views from our wedding site on the ranch were truly unmatched. The venue offers the most dreamy backdrop for cocktail hour under the sunset with the picturesque ranch field and horses alongside our wedding festivities and our reception under the stars. They even released the horses to run out to the field during cocktail hour which was a highlight for our guests! We also loved being able to stay at the incredible guest cabins on the property with our family and friends in the days leading up to our wedding day. As a bride, there was nothing more special than waking up on my wedding day and seeing our reception tent and ceremony site set up outside my window. The cabin I stayed in had plenty of room for my bridesmaids and I to get ready the day of. Trail Creek is a hidden gem that highlights the beauty that is Jackson Hole and we could not recommend it enough to any future couples looking to get married in a unique place in the greater Jackson Hole area. We can't wait to go back and stay at the ranch again!!!
