    Perfect venue

    Though this review is coming 10months late (can you tell we needed the amazing wedding planning skills of Alia?!), it has stayed on my TODO list because it was important to us to share what a wonderful experience we had working with Alia, Greg, and the rest of the Sunset Ranch crew. After taking a tour around the property with Greg, we were immediately struck by how naturally beautiful the grounds are and it perfectly aligned with our garden wedding theme. It has a spectalar view of both Waimea Bay and valley, so are spoiled for choice on ceremony site. The biggest draw for us, however, was our planner, Alia. We worked with her for the 8 months leading up to wedding day and she was always so well-organised, patient, and conscientious such that she made the whole process as stress-free as possible. Sunset Ranch is practically all-inclusive, and Alia navigated the outside vendors with us for those few services they didn't provide in-house. She was so very organised, and provided us with every resource and detail we needed in order pull off the day. All-in-all, an incredibly easy, seamless process which minimised stress whilst staying true to our vision. As the wedding day rolled around, day-of coordination happened without us even realising and we were able to be fully present and enjoy the day with our friends and family whilst Alia and the team worked tirelessly in the background. My partner and I had an unforgettable day, without so much as a blemish, and we have the Sunset Ranch crew to thank for that. We could not recommend this crew and venue more highly.

    Exceeded our expectations in every way possible

    This venue and this team (especially Jonah 3) made all of our wedding dreams come true - beyond what we even could have imagined. Not only does this space contain the most incredible energy, but the team at Sunset Ranch transformed the space into a North Shore, jungle, disco dream. The florals, the food, the music, the incredible venue, and the most seamless, stressless planning...I would recommend this location and team 10x over. Every single one of our guests said that it was the most magical, fun, gorgeous wedding they've been to - and that is such a testament to Jonah and her team at Sunset Ranch. We will be reliving the day for many months to come. Thank you all so much, from the bottom of our hearts.

    Our amazing wedding at Sunset Ranch

    I cannot express how grateful my wife and I are that we chose Sunset Ranch as our wedding venue. We had our wedding this past weekend, and everything that was promised to us from the very start was not only fulfilled but exceeded our expectations. We were exceptionally lucky to have our coordinator, Ronda, who was the best person to work with throughout the entire process. Since we live all the way on the East Coast, having someone like Ronda assist us through every step of the planning process really put us at ease. The more we worked with her, the more we began to feel at ease that everything would turn out perfectly. She guided us tremendously and answered all of our questions in a timely and communicative manner. We truly felt blessed to have her. And of course, the day of the wedding went so smoothly thanks to the entire Sunset Ranch staff. All of their coordinators were on top of their responsibilities, and everything ran seamlessly. Our family and friends had a wonderful time, and as a cherry on top, the venue was so beautifully decorated—it’s something my wife and I will never forget. Thank you, Sunset Ranch!

    The most AMAZING venue!!

    Our wedding at Sunset Ranch was absolutely amazing! We booked site unseen without tasting anything and everything just blew us away on the wedding day. The venue is stunning, ALL of the vendors are amazing, so attentive, they work so hard, and everything was beautiful. We had Alia as our coordinator and she was amazing. She made our planning process so incredibly easy and fun, she handled everything, and every detail was perfect. Half of our family traveled from Australia and half traveled from the U.S. and everyone raved about how amazing the wedding was and how well it was put together. We cannot relive the day through our photos when we get them and we could not recommend Sunset Ranch enough not just for the beauty but also the amazing team of vendors. We are so grateful!!

She loved working with you and helping bring every detail of your day together. It means so much to know your family and friends had such a memorable experience. Thank you again for trusting our team and vendor partners with such an important day in your lives. Warmest aloha, The Sunset Ranch Hawaii Team

    What a magical day!

    We are so happy that we picked Sunset Ranch for our big day! We’re based in Seattle so we needed someone who could help us plan remotely. Ronda was absolutely amazing, she was able to guide us through every detail of wedding planning and built our confidence in party planning along the way. She made planning a destination wedding feel effortless. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, the perfect blend of Hawaii’s tropical beauty and wedding-esque grandeur. Our family and friends from both Hawaii and mainland were impressed. It was a little pricier than other places we were looking at but ultimately worth the price. On the wedding day, we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. Ronda and her team kept everything running perfectly and if there were any issues they handled them behind the scenes because we never knew they existed. We were able to be fully present and just enjoy every moment of the best day of our lives.

    Mahalo for your wonderful review and for choosing Sunset Ranch Hawaii for your wedding day. It was truly an honor to host such a special celebration. We’re so glad to hear that planning your destination wedding from Seattle felt smooth and enjoyable. Ronda will be especially grateful for your kind words—she cares deeply about guiding couples through the planning process and making the experience feel effortless. It means so much to know you and your guests loved the beauty of the ranch and that you were able to relax and fully enjoy every moment of your day. Thank you again for trusting us with such an important milestone. Warmest aloha, The Sunset Ranch Hawaii Team

Hawaii is a busy wedding destination year-round. That said, ‘busy season’ at Sunset Ranch (and most all venues) is March through October. Busy ‘booking’ season is November through February. Based on demand, we take bookings anywhere from two weeks out to 18 to 24 months out. We recommend you consider a courtesy hold at Sunset Ranch if you plan to get married within the next two years.
Absolutely! We work with you throughout the planning process to design and create a wedding that is tailored to you. While we work with select vendors who we consider the best on Oahu, our packages provide flexibility through: (1) finalization of invoicing to your exact final head count, (2) customizations by element (floral is always customized), and (3) full category credits (you don’t need an officiant? No problem, we credit it back to you on your final invoice). Every wedding is unique and we do our best to design and create your special day to you vision.
We work with an event management company to secure discounted room rates for our clients, often securing rates below what they are able to get on their own. You can choose any hotel on Oahu. We normally recommend one that might be more of a resort offering, and one a little more budget friendly. We start the process to secure room blocks shortly after you book with us. This allows you to include hotel room blocks in your invitations to guests. We also stage all transport to and from hotel accommodations. Remember, all transport is included in our packages.
Great question! We have a Plan B for each and every event at Sunset Ranch. At 30 days out, we review a map of our venues with you and finalize all event uses at each venue. Remember, at Sunset Ranch you have exclusive access to six different venues. We host no other activity on the day of your event. Once venues are selected and finalized, we discuss a plan with you in the event of weather. Having hosted over 1400 events at Sunset Ranch, we have seen most everything and we have great options. Our number one goal is to give you peace of mind that everything will be great, regardless of the weather!
Yes, all our facilities are wheelchair accessible. We also have ramps to the getting ready guest suites and bathroom trailers.
Yes we have on-site parking available and also work with experienced transportation companies on Oahu.
Winter
All wine and spirits can be purchased separately and we do not charge corking fee.
