We had the best time here! They we're super accommodating with everything we asked for or needed. We booked the venue and the Inn for the full weekend and it was definitely worth it. We did our catering through them as well and it was fantastic. The food was amazing and so easy since we stayed at the venue. Being the bride and super stressed about a lot of things the venue and catering was never on my list of things to stress about. An absolute 12/10 experience.
Circle S Ranch was everything and more than we could have asked for! The venue and surroundings are beautiful. The food was delicious. The personal touch and care that the owner and staff put into everything they do is top notch! The chapel barn was perfect and so romantic. The reception hall had everything you would need for the wedding and it was so spacious and welcoming! The dinner for both the night of rehearsal and the wedding was absolutely delicious. We rented the entire bed and breakfast and everyone was so happy with their rooms and breakfast was delicious! They even brought up a beautiful platter of food for lunch on the wedding day so the ladies could continue getting ready in the perfect area they have set up on the third floor! We had enough room for not only the bride but also her bridesmaids, three hairdressers and several others !
I can’t express how thankful we are that we chose Circle S Ranch. They truly helped us make it a dream come true experience!
We booked the entire ranch for our daughters wedding in March. They wanted to get married quickly and on the anniversary of the date they met. With only 3 months to plan a wedding we were a bit worried about getting everything done. Mary took care of everything, food, decor, Diane did the spectacular flowers. Since it was an early March wedding the decision was made to have the ceremony in the barn. The bride and groom really wanted to make the barn feel more intimate and romantic which Mary and her team accomplished. We checked in Friday and were able to relax and enjoy the ranch. The wedding party spent the day horseback riding and taking longhorn tours. We had a great rehearsal followed by an intimate dinner in the great room by the huge fireplace. Later that night we had a bonfire and s'mores. The wedding day was so relaxing. They fed us breakfast and lunch while we were getting ready. The groom wanted to add some of his Dominican heritage to the reception dinner and Mary and her team didn't hesitate to make that happen. After the reception we were able to go back to the house where there was a late night snack waiting for us. Sunday morning they served us breakfast as we packed up and headed out. It was such a joyful experience. Everyone has gone out of their way to tell us this was one of the best weddings they have ever attended.
My brother was recently married at the Circle S Ranch, and it was the most magical weekend we could have ever imagined! The staff was amazing and helped us with whatever we needed, from extra food to sewing kits! They are family and pet friendly, and there was nothing that was overlooked! The food was delicious, and the wedding was breathtaking! If you are looking for a local destination wedding where your family can all stay together in an amazing 12 bedroom country Inn right on the property and have farm to table food, there is no other place than Circle S! You will not be disappointed!
I could not have asked for a better venue or people to help us plan our special day! The staff was always easy to get ahold of and willing to answer and questions I had. Not only were they wonderful to work with throughout the planning processes, our wedding weekend was perfect. They made everything so stress free and I didn’t have to worry about anything the entire wedding weekend. Highly recommend the full weekend package. All of our guests had a wonderful time and our bridal party was so grateful to all be in one place. It was a destination wedding at home.
Circle S was great for a customized wedding. They accommodated all of our ideas and were very friendly the whole time. We were nervous about the forecast of rain but Circle S was very prepared with many covered areas so the rain didn't even affect us! We had a wonderful time !!
Circle S Ranch was the perfect place for my sister-in-law's wedding! As a bridesmaid, it was wonderful to show up and have everything taken care of for us. From enjoying the hot tub the night before, to breakfast and beautiful views while getting ready in the morning, to, of course, the wedding itself, it was an all-around amazing weekend! Very grateful for the amazing staff that helped make Terri's wedding weekend so special.
Everyone at the ranch were very helpful and informative. They were always willing to to make any adjustments that needed to be done. The rooms are amazing and all of our guests throughly enjoyed their stay. I would use the Circle S Ranch again without hesitation.
I was a bridesmaid in a wedding here last spring and I can’t say enough good things! The ranch is absolutely gorgeous, with so many pretty places for photos! The guest rooms are a great size. The food was fantastic and the staff was super friendly and helpful!!
Circle S Ranch is truly the best place to have your wedding. The staff was so accommodating to make sure our day was special. The staff was always willing to go out of their way to make sure all our needs were met. The ranch is the most beautiful location you could ask for. It is acres and acres of beautiful landscape. The party barn where we did our reception was amazing. We were able to set up the night before and day of to make it look just like we wanted. The food we had was out of this world. We received so many compliments on how delicious it was. The rooms we stayed in were very clean and it was the perfect place for our us and our guests to stay. With two hot tubs, a fire pit and a great porch area, we had no problem keeping our guests entertained throughout the weekend. I cannot thank Mary, Alayna and Chris enough for make our special day absolutely perfect!!
What is there to say about my absolutely perfect wedding day at Circle S Ranch? I know it is a day I will remember for the rest of my life, and with good reason. From beginning to end of our contact, Anna made me feel like I, the bride, was in control and that she would do everything possible to make sure that everything ran smoothly on my wedding day. Circle S Ranch has amazing, beautiful, unique rooms and accommodations. All my relatives from Chicago thought it was the best hotel they'd ever stayed at. The staff were attentive and made everyone comfortable, and the meals I ate there (breakfast, lunch, wedding dinner, and breakfast the next morning) were among the best meals I have had in my life. I absolutely think it is some kind of magic how they manage to cook so much delicious food in such a short space of time. Have you ever wanted to pet a horse while you are setting up for your wedding? The horses are friendly, as is the lone dog who will entertain everyone from uncles to nephews. Or is your dream to soak in the hot tub with your girls late night before the big day? Maybe you want to spend alone time in a giant bathtub in front of a roaring fireplace...or have s'mores at your rehearsal dinner...or hear cows moo loudly to signal that it's time to kiss your new spouse! (Maybe that one was a coincidence). Any one of those items would have sold me, but I didn't have to choose. You can really have it all. Circle S paid attention to my every need, want, and wish, and they delivered. Nature was my decoration, friends and family were part of the experience, and even though it's just up the road, it felt like the destination wedding of my dreams. It's all over now, and I will miss those moments. But my new husband and I can always go back to Circle S and stay for a weekend, reminiscing on and reliving the best weekend of our lives.
Great wedding experience! We bought the full package that included the 12 bedroom bed and breakfast for our family and bridal party. They provided all of the meals, the spa, endless coffee and the wedding reception catering and bar. They make everything less stressful for the bride and groom. They decorate and do everything for you. Even clean up! All of this combined just makes you actually enjoy the wedding experience instead of stressing about it. I highly recommend it to anyone! Beautiful place, scenery and people! Schedule a tour and you’ll fall in love.
We had the most wonderful experience at the Circle S Ranch! We had to plan our wedding from 7 time zones away and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Anna and her team were very professional; they were super responsive to emails and always quick to respond to questions. Anna and the rest of the Circle S team were also very accommodating with scheduling video conferences. When my husband and I arrived for our wedding weekend, Anna and Shelby welcomed us like old friends and took care of every single detail so that we could focus on spending quality time with our family and friends. I am so, so grateful to Anna, Chef Mary, and the entire Circle S team for creating such a beautiful and inviting space for this special time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
My best friend got married here and the family+wedding party stayed at the Inn for the weekend - having such a warm home base for everyone made the weekend so much more fun. The rooms were comfortable & the food was great. Someone from the Inn was there to answer our questions (Mary and her family are so sweet!). The grounds are beautiful (bonus for pictures) and for the rainy day ceremony, the chapel was really intimate and looked lovely with the flowers. Laid back, warm setting, kind people - would definitely recommend!
We had our wedding party and parents stay in the Inn for our wedding weekend and it was wonderful! Great food and rooms! We wound up with a rainy wedding day and the barn chapel was a beautiful and intimate alternative. Everyone had a fantastic time and we had a magical wedding day! It is a rustic setting, so if that is your vibe this is great spot!
Circle S Ranch was the perfect venue for our wedding. They were amazing to work with and helped us make sure every detail was taken care of. We were so glad we rented the whole venue for the entire weekend. They took care of everything from breakfast to lunch and rehearsal dinner. They took so much out of our hands so we could focus on spending time with our family and friends who were staying at the inn with us. The food was absolutely delicious. Mary even made our favorite family recipe as a side for the reception. Thank you Circle S for making our dream wedding come true!
I really enjoyed the wedding at Circle S Ranch. The food was and the service was exceptional! Felt right at home and the ranch could not have been any prettier for a chic ranch wedding.
We had a great time at the Circle S. Ranch. The staff was really accomodating and really made the event special. 10/10 would recommend!
Our son and new daughter-in-law's wedding at Circle S Ranch this past weekend was amazing! Having the wedding party stay together at the inn for the entire weekend made it so intimate and personal. The food was great, the rooms were luxurious, and the staff was responsive to all our needs and requests.
We absolutely loved the Circle S Ranch. The owner was attentive and the staff went out of their way to ensure that our day went perfectly. I loved the laid back atmosphere of the ranch. The food was delicious! I would recommend this venue to anyone who is getting married.
The best I could ever ask for. They have also recently added a covered ceremony site.

Circle S Ranch was the perfect venue for my husband and I. I was initially drawn Circle S because of the outdoor ceremony space. Its even more beautiful in person! We loved that we could rent the entire property for a whole weekend (we had a ton of out of town guests)! The price for renting the bed and breakfast out, also included meals for the guests staying at the property. Circle S has a lot of rustic things for couples to use on tables and furniture to play with to create the perfect reception atmosphere. I would highly recommend Circle S for couples looking for a rustic and outdoorsy day/weekend!!
I'm torn.We rented the whole inn for the weekend&chose the middle wedding package.Everything throughout planning ran very smooth, part of the reason I chose the venue.I enjoyed working with Theresa&she was usually quick to respond to emails.The weekend of the wedding was great in the inn,however the day of the wedding was a disaster.Maybe it was because we did not pay for the biggest event package&we were somehow less important,or maybe it was untrained staff,or maybe it was just an off weekend.
During the week of the wedding weather called for rain,we were supposed to get married outside.I emailed Theresa about a plan B.I never heard back from her.Not a big deal,but I was juggling family flying in,moving wedding decor,etc.For the money we were paying,it seemed more like an inconvenience.It was eventually worked it out.I was told there was to be accommodations via polaris cart for people w/disabilities.This apparently was an issue. It was upsetting to hear about later from guests.I was also told there would be a welcome board for guests staying at the venue for the weekend(they did it for prior weddings),but we didn't get that.There were other brides touring the venue on my wedding day.I was actually cool with this, didn't mind, but there was not an employee with them.So instead of being able to ask them,they followed me around &asked questions.Again, not a big deal, purely inconvenienced.
It says online there is wifi,but there was basically no wifi on the property.To save money, I had a playlist on Spotify&an emcee.I was told that there was stronger wifi in the barn,it wouldn't be a problem.We rented the speakers&mic from the ranch (which we were notified as an added charge a month before)&were told this had been something past brides had done.During the reception,we couldn't get the wifi to work, which meant no music.Theresa had left sometime during the ceremony &the staff had no clue as to the password to connect nor would they call her.Friends/family tried to resolve the issue without help,eventually I had to get upset in front of guests because we couldn't have our first dance,it was embarrassing.The staff then said it"wasn't their problem"&that it was either Spotify or weather to blame(it had stormed that evening,however the following sunny day the wifi wouldn't connect).In retrospect, I should have hired a DJ that didn't need wifi.I was trying to save money since we paid $10k up front to them.The staff was extremely unhelpful &were rude-if they were at all visible.I had put out vases with floating candles that were supposed to have water.Asked for water to be put in&they said they "didn't know what to tell me".Bartender was not in a good mood.The staff rolled their eyes at husband when asked for them to give us our cake structure back(we had to return them to baker),said they had already thrown them away.We had specifically asked,prior to, for it to be saved.The barn flooded on the back wall,where the bridal party/cake are set up.I didn't realize it flooded until after the cake was cut&sat down.The flooding &dirt in the barn gave my dress an awful grey ring &ruined my dress.
For the money we paid/the way were treated,it's upsetting.I felt absolutely no stress whatsoever up until the reception&then felt nothing BUT stress trying fix things myself at my own reception.All in all,my wedding was beautiful.It was wonderful staying at the inn that weekend with family&friends, I heard nothing but good things from those who stayed.
My wife and I got married here in September, it was perfect. The venue was well taken care of and Theresa made sure everything ran smoothly the day of! Nothing but good things to say!
My daughter was married here a few weeks ago and it is a beautiful location. The staff is friendly and go above and beyond to make the day everything you want it to be. I highly recommend this venue.
My sister, Kasey, was married here in September and it was THE most beautiful wedding I’ve ever been a part of! The grounds are simply gorgeous! The staff was also very helpful during the day while we were getting ready, and it was really a stress-free day full of fun! I would recommend Circle S to my friends!
It was perfect. They took care of everything. I was able to have a wonderful and memorable wedding and reception. Father of the bride.
My sister, Kasey, and her now husband, Adam, got married here in September. It was absolutely beautiful. The staff was super helpful and friendly while we were getting ready, and they attended to all of our needs during the ceremony/reception. The grounds and views make for AMAZING pictures. It was a wonderful night, and I highly recommend!
The Circle S Ranch gave me my dream ethereal bohemian wedding!
To start, Theresa & Mary were amazing throughout the entire planning process and always answered my questions very quickly. They listened to my vision & gave me all the tools to bring it to life!
I was originally worried that the venue might be too country/rustic to fit my bohemian vision, but once I saw the outdoor ceremony site & how secluded in nature it was....the simplicity of the beauty of the nature was perfect. & the party barn was easily transformed into what I wanted.
Being able to have the ceremony and reception at the same venue was something I wanted, and them having rooms available for guests & family to stay in at the inn was a relief. Not to mention they took care of alcohol, linens, serviceware, & transporting decor from the ceremony to the reception took so much of my planning stress away. They even made vendor recommendations & accommodated the taco truck we wanted at our reception!
Neither my family or I had to worry about the clean up at the end of the night either. It made me so happy that everyone could just enjoy themselves and relax and not stress about all the details. It made our big day even more special!
I would strongly recommend Circle S!! Having so many things included in this venue pricing made it such a major value and well worth it.
Our wedding at the Circle S Ranch was everything my husband and I could have ever dreamed of and then some. Our entire family got to spend a wonderful weekend at the ranch with us where we all got to catch up and relax. I can’t even put into words how complimentary everyone was about the venue and staff. We worked frequently with Theresa and Reagan and they were the absolute best to work with! They were always available to help throughout the planning process and the day of the wedding. We will never forget our wedding weekend and can’t thank the staff at Circle S enough for making it so perfect!
We got married at Circle S Ranch in may of this yr. It was the most perfect place and a great fit for what we were looking for. The staff were absolutely amazing and so helpful. Delicious food. We were very pleased and going back for a visited soon.
We had our wedding at Circle S Ranch. It is was the perfect place for our wedding. The staff were very helpful ! We plan on going back for a visit soon
My only complaint was that I had to check their math a few times because things weren't adding up from what I was being told and what was showing up on the estimate/bill I was given. Love the venue and the pulled pork was delicious!
Beautiful and so homey feeling.
Absolutely the 'Best'. I have been to many venues this was the best yet!!!
thank you for everything was wonderful. We enjoyed tasting all the food. Hospitality was great. Thanks again.
Two Words: absolutely phenomenal!
Beautiful site, beautiful rooms. Everyone was so helpful and kind. Very accommodating. Will definitely recommend this venue
Circle S was the perfect venue for a simple wedding. Even after four months have passed since we were married there, our guests continually mention how beautiful the venue was. It was the best space for our natural, simple wedding.
Circle S Ranch is such a beautiful place to have an event! Especially a wedding. The staff does everything they can to accommodate your every need. We had a wonderful experience there and plan to go back to stay a night at the gorgeous Inn.
My wife and I held our reception at the Ranch after getting married at a nearby church. I can't imagine holding the reception anywhere else. Not only was the scenery gorgeous, but we had a double rainbow to compliment it!
The staff are very accommodating and work hard to help you create the best experience for you.
The seclusive nature of the ranch really helps to build up the event. You really exist in a little universe of your own creation out there, free of the worries and stresses of day-to-day life.
Many people talk about the stresses that a wedding puts you through, but I have to say, I don't understand what they are talking about. My wedding week was so stress free, and that is due in no small part to the work put in by the Circle S Ranch. My wife might have played a part in that too :)
All-in-all, I would highly recommend this venue to anyone for any reason.
My husband and I recently spent the weekend at Circle S Ranch and reminisced about our 2009 Circle S Wedding reception. Our friends and family still talk about what a great party it was, from the delicious Italian food to the late night bonfire. The staff took care of everything so we were able to relax and spend quality time with our guests. Circle S Ranch is one of the first places I like to show off when I have out-of-state visitors; it is a true representation of the Best of Kansas!
I was convinced that I wanted a low-key, destination wedding. My husband (to-be) was convinced he wanted a big wedding. The Circle S Ranch was the perfect place for both. We celebrated with our closest friends and family from Friday-Sunday, and hosted a big wedding for a few hours Saturday evening. While it was the ability to have both a low-key affair and a large event in one weekend that drew us to the Ranch, the amenities and freedoms the Circle S Ranch provides are unmatched. The setting is stunning. The food is top-notch. The accommodations are comfortably indulgent. The staff is happy to help. And the setting is stunning! I am so grateful we found the Circle S Ranch for our perfect wedding weekend.
My husband and I had our wedding at the Circle S. Ranch the weekend of Oct. 8th, 2016. We booked the venue for the entire weekend, and our package included the rental of all rooms in their B&B, our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, wedding, reception, and several meals. The package was definitely not cheap, but for what you are paying, you're getting all of the aforementioned. For us, it was totally worth it to be able to host our parents and wedding party for the entire weekend, and know that no one would have to stress about their travel and accommodations. Overall we had a fantastic experience with Circle S. We did have a wedding coordinator who helped with most of our planning, and she had been employed with the Ranch for several years as their Events Coordinator. Even when a new Events Coordinator was hired on mid-way thru our planning, she picked right up where ours had left off, and didn't miss a beat in quickly returning our emails or helping us with every last detail of our big day. I had many, many compliments from our guests on how delicious the food was, which was all prepared by the Ranch. Our one disappointment in the Ranch was that we were guaranteed we'd have full access by 9am on Friday morning, with rooms ready for check-in by noon. However, it seemed a group was double booked on Friday and the main inn was still occupied til close to 2pm. It did not end up being too big of a deal, as many of our guests didn't end up arriving til 2-3pm, but we did feel slightly inconvenienced, mainly - again - due to the price we're paying for this venue. Overall, however, the weekend went off without a hitch, largely in part to the staff that work at Circle S. and their attentiveness to detail and customer satisfaction. I'd absolutely recommend this venue to couples in the KC area looking for a truly rustic, romantic wedding experience. Thank you for giving us a weekend to remember for a lifetime!
I did the Big Event package at the Ranch and it was the best idea I've ever had! My friends and family spent a wonderful weekend relaxing and reconnecting while preparing for the wedding. The staff were very friendly and always there to help and to answer questions but were never intrusive. The food and treats provided were delicious and we never wanted for anything. Our friends and family are still talking about what a wonderful experience it was and how they would love to go back! My husband and I are already discussing future anniversary getaways at the Ranch. I can't say enough nice things about this place and would absolutely recommend it as a wedding venue!
We got married on December 5th 2015 at the Circle S Ranch. We opted for the big wedding package, which includes all 12 rooms at the bed and breakfast for up to 24 guest, the ceremony venue, the reception venue and so much more! There is something about having 24 members of your family and closest friends under one roof for a whole weekend that makes the whole experience even more special! The service is 5 star quality! The staff make your whole family feel like VIPs, the food all weekend was phenomenal and I would highly recommend this is venue to anyone that asks!!! We checked in on Friday and had the rehearsal and dinner that night with our family and friends. Friday night they had a bonfire for s'mores. Woke up on Saturday to an awesome breakfast and then lunch later that day. We had the ceremony and reception Saturday night, followed by a midnight snack of pizza after the reception for the guest that stayed at the ranch. We got up Sunday morning to another wonderful breakfast before we checked out and went to the airport to start our honeymoon! It was truly a magical weekend and I could not have asked for more. By beautiful bride had the dream wedding she always wanted!
I don't what our total cost for the ranch was...I will say that the price depends on the time of year. We chose December to try and save some money. The ranch can do indoor or outdoor weddings depending on what you want.
Bottom line is this...I WOULD CHOOSE THE RANCH AGAIN ANY TIME NO QUESTIONS ASKED!!!
I got married at Circle S in the spring, and it was everything I dreamed it to be. The staff was amazing from the time we toured through the time we left after our wedding. They were always helpful and really got to know us while we stayed there for the weekend. I always felt good about our decisions and knew that we were taken care of. The Ranch not only housed our ceremony and reception but they took care of the catering and bar as well which took a lot of stress off our shoulders. The day went so smooth and I was blissfully unaware of any problems that may have come up. Everyone always had a smile on their face, and my family and friends still talk about how much fun they had. I recommend this venue not only because the staff is wonderful, the food was amazing, the views were divine, and the experience was perfect, but because the Ranch has become a home-away-from-home for my husband and I. It is so cool to know that we can come back year and year to the place where we started our lives together to see how things have changed, catch up with everyone, and relax all over again. Loved the Ranch and LOVED our wedding!
We had the mot amazing weekend at Circle S celebrating with our family and friends! We purchased the biggest package allowing us to use the property for the entire weekend and utilizing both the ceremony and reception sites as well as the Inn. Our entire immediate families and wedding party including their spouses and kids were able to stay with us on the property at the Inn all weekend and it made for such a fun and exciting atmosphere for everyone. The landscaping is beautiful and makes for amazing pictures! We also used their catering services throughout our stay and all of the food was great! The staff is so easy to work with and is willing to go above and beyond to make the event exactly what you have envisioned and more. We hired Sara to be our coordinator the day of and couldn't have asked for anything more from her! Our day definitely would not have ran as smoothly as it did if not for her. My husband and I were so happy with how the whole weekend turned out and couldn't imagine using any other venue! It was perfect!
I am so happy we chose Circle S Ranch for our wedding venue. It is the perfect location for anyone looking for a rustic venue surrounded by the most beautiful land. Sarah was incredible with helping us at the ranch! She made our experience seamless and stress free. The best part about the ranch is the option to make your wedding into a whole weekend. We had family and friends stay with us Friday and Saturday night and it really made it a special event for us. Thank you to everyone at the Ranch for helping us have the wedding of our dreams!
The Circle S Ranch gave me everything I could have ever dreamed of and more for my wedding. We had the most perfect weekend. Sarah Bronson was beyond amazing throughout the entire planning process and always answered my questions very quickly. Being able to have the ceremony and reception at the same venue was something I had always wanted. Having rooms available to stay in at the ranch as well as them taking care of all of the catering, alcohol, and rehearsal dinner, took so much of my planning stress away immediately.The beautiful decor of the party barn where the reception was held also eliminated a lot of my stress because I didn't have to worry about decorating or cleaning up afterwards. I loved that I could enjoy an entire weekend rather than just a wedding day with my family and bridal party. The wedding day went off perfectly without a single hitch thanks to Sarah. Everything was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the reception was the most fun I had ever had. Having so many things included in this venue pricing made it such a major value and well worth it. Sarah was also so great about communicating the costs of everything at the highest end upfront so that there weren't any surprises. I would HIGHLY recommend this venue to any bride and I will definitely be returning to the ranch for an anniversary weekend trip in the future!
My fiancé and I were very picky about choosing a venue because we both have different styles. A lot of venues we had visited were over priced and the staff was not very friendly. When we met Sarah she was nice and funny. We were trying to come by and have a tour but we had missed the tour time. She was very polite and told us she was still around and she would wait for us to arrive. Which was different because other venue staff did not care about us being out of their areas. It took us an hour to get there and she was just so chipper and sweet. We hit it off instantly. During the planning she was more than amazing. She responded quickly to emails and returned calls. Sarah basically helped me every step of the way.
There were no hidden fees and I never expected to be overcharged for things because Sarah always told me up front what things were costing instead of me telling her what I wanted and her not giving me the prices until the end. If there was a $3 charge extra, Sarah would notify me. We met the owner and a lot of the other staff and never once were any of them rude or mean.
Our rehearsal dinner was amazing! Everything was like I planned. There was always staff present during the day and early morning to assist with anything that our guests needed. Our ceremony was just as special. I cannot say anything bad about this venue. It was exactly what I wanted. For the money we paid and the way people treated us, I would recommend this venue every time! All of my guests kept talking about how great this place was and I couldn't have been any happier!
I also liked the location. It is in the middle of no where and it forces families and friends to interact. After our rehearsal dinner we played games on the lawn and we had a s'mores bar compliments of the ranch. Circle S Ranch is by far the best and helped me have my dream wedding weekend!!!!
We had a wonderful experience with Circle S from start to finish. Sarah, our event planner through Circle S was extremely organized. The Ranch was beautifully arranged for our weekend of guests. The food was exceptional! All of our out of town guests had a wonderful time. Mary, the owner, went above and beyond to make our guests feel welcomed and part of the family for the weekend!
I loved the scenery at the ranch and the staff was very helpful. They helped my day go smoothly and that alone is amazing! It had rooms for the wedding party to stay at so we got to enjoy the whole weekend. This was important to me because most of my bridesmaids were from California. This place is truly magical and I will never forget my big day! :)
Our wedding starts with this beautiful venue. We bought the Big Event package. The bridal party stayed the weekend at the ranch which relived the stress and allowed us to visit with friends and family. The food was yummy and our reception was beautiful. The Circle S staff goes above and beyond to make the day special. Absolutely a dream wedding. Thank you Mary and Sara for helping make our wedding a fairy tale.
My husband and I had our wedding and reception at Circle S Ranch 11 years ago. It was everything I could dream of! The staff did a wonderful job seeing to all our wishes. My favorite memory was walking down from the inn to the ceremony site. It was such a gorgeous stage for a wedding with the sunset and the breathtaking views of the natural surroundings. It was the perfect start to a beautiful night and life together.
My daughter was married at circle s ranch. We chose this venue due to multiple sets of family members coming from all over the country. We felt that we could all stay together and enjoy the weekend and visiting and getting to know one another if we booked the entire barn at Circle S Ranch. The entire weekend was fabulous.everyone enjoyed the ranch and the tranquil setting.there was as much or as little activity to do as one wanted.The party barn made for a fun and beautiful event setting.
Pros of this venue:self-contained, norunning around trying to coordinate meals activities etc. the foodwas great.beautiful setting outdoors or indoors.Wonderful helpful nice staff.creative. Unique. Circle s will attempt to make everything exactly as you want it. They are very flexible.
Cons of this venue; a little on the expensive side.be sure you understand what you are getting for your money. Everything is al a carte for instance you rent tablecloths silverware ......everything
Overall.... We had a fabulous wedding and circle s helped us have the exact details that made it extra special. Highly recommend
We rented the inn for the entire weekend, which was perfect for all of our out-of-town guests. It also was great for my husband and I to spend some extra "casual" time with family and friends without having to organize anything extra. Circle S provided all of the food and drinks (which were very tasty) which made our weekend much more hassle-free. All the people working there were very attentive and helpful. The outdoor wedding ceremony was beautiful despite the fact it was the hottest day of the year! After the ceremony we rushed to the air-conditioned "party barn" for some drinks, food, and dancing! All in all, a weekend full of wonderful memories at a beautiful place. We try to return every year with either family or friends to escape just a night or a couple of days.
My wife was the one who originally found the Circle S Ranch when we got engaged. We knew we wanted an outdoor ceremony, but I was skeptical about the Ranch being too "country." When we went to tour I was in utter shock. Not only was this venue breathtaking, but it was exactly what we wanted. We booked our wedding a little over a year and half in advance, and they would email to check in from time to time, and were very helpful throughout. We had such an amazing time that we now go back every year for our anniversary. This place was not just a wedding venue for us. It became a home away from home, and we look forward to spending many more years with the Circle S.
My husband wanted a sophisticated wedding, and I was headed towards a more vintage feel. When we visited Circle S, we knew this place was the perfect spot. We got married outside surrounded by our friends and family and it was simply beautiful. After the wedding, we went to the reception barn. Our food was fantastic, the staff attentive, and afterwards we went back to the silo and hit up the hot tub. If there was one thing I could change about my wedding experience at Circle S it would be that we could've stayed longer! It was the most memorable day of my life and I can't wait for what memories are to come from Circle S in the years ahead!
