“The Platte River Fort is an absolutely beautiful venue! We had our wedding there and I wouldn’t have wanted to get married anywhere else. We coordinated with Cindy and she was beyond helpful helping us book and getting everything ready for our big day. The only reason I wouldn’t give this place 5 stars is all of the hidden fees that were not mentioned or included in the package we booked. Long story short, you will all of a sudden find yourself paying them hourly after you have paid for a whole package and then some. The owners and management need to be more clear on every detail. And of course as many places and events are, the alcohol and bartenders are triple the amount. It would’ve been cheaper to hire a third party bartending vendor to come serve.”

“We were thrilled with our choice to host our wedding at Rockin' S Ranch! Chris and her team were a delight to work with from start to finish. She responded quickly anytime we had questions during planning. McKenna was a fantastic day-of coordinator and made sure everything flowed smoothly so my husband and I could simply relax and enjoy our special day. The well-maintained grounds and charming indoor/outdoor venue provided a lovely rustic backdrop that perfectly fit the vibe we envisioned. We received so many compliments from guests on this hidden gem of a venue! Rockin' S Ranch offers a picture-perfect and intimate setting.
