I could not say enough good things about Piney Grove Ranch and their staff! If you don't want to read the long review that will likely follow (because Piney Grove is just that awesome), just know this: You will not regret choosing Piney Grove as your wedding venue! There are multiple things that set Piney Grove a part from other venues. The two that come to mind first are the people and the place. Piney Grove Ranch is absolutely stunning! No exaggeration. John, Sarah, and their staff have worked hard to maintain and enhance the natural beauty of the venue. It is peaceful, quiet, and just leaves you wishing you could spend all day there when you visit. So why not spend "the day" there? Once again, you won't regret it! Secondly, the people. It was obvious from the beginning of our journey with Piney Grove that John & Sarah put people first and are incredibly servant-hearted. When we toured with them, they made our decision smooth, chill, and no pressure. Finding a wedding venue can be a little stressful, especially depending on your budget, anticipated guest number, and preferred wedding date(s). The last thing you want is to have to make that decision under pressure, and some venues (whether intentionally or not) make you feel like you have to. John & Sarah did not. They let us know that whether we chose Piney Grove or not, they wanted what was best for us, and we could tell they meant it. Throughout the entire process working with them, they were so kind and caring. They want the best for their couples, take the time to get to know them, and genuinely care about them. They were intentional with us, displayed the love of Christ, and encouraged my husband and I throughout the wedding process. It made all the difference. Even if you aren't a Christian, I have no doubt you will be met by John & Sarah with love, care, and encouragement. They are so amazing! We left every venue open house feeling encouraged and peaceful, our cup filled up by the beauty of nature and the kindness of staff. While, I didn't work with them as closely, the staff on hand for our wedding day were wonderful and kind as well, helping with set up and ushering guest where ever they needed to go. They helped the day go smoothly. In addition to the people and the venue itself, Piney Grove Ranch wants to set couples up for low stress success. They include so much in the price of booking with them, which is such a blessing. The last thing you want to do is book a wedding venue and then realize that you also need to take care of renting tables, chairs, etc. But with Piney Grove, those necessities and the sweet added bonus of their décor room makes the process easy and well worth the investment. I had so much fun getting creative in their décor room as I determined how I wanted our wedding to look. Once again, I can't recommend Piney Grove Ranch enough, booking with them is a decision you most certainly won't regret! To the Bride, Groom, or family member of either reading this, best of luck to you as you plan your wedding! Whether Piney Grove is the best fit for you or not, I am sure your day...

Read moreIt would be hard to put together a handful of thoughts about our experience with Piney Grove. From the day we first step foot on the venue to the wedding day and everything in between, I cannot speak highly enough of the venue and the team that oversees it. John, Sarah, Rachel and their team are truly "salt of the earth" people; their attention to care and detail throughout working with them was beyond excellent. Every question we had and detailed we could have missed was graciously met by them.
From a ministering standpoint, I cannot say enough. My wife and I love Jesus and have committed our lives to Him and His work. To have the owners of our wedding venue be committed to the same King and Cause is more than we could ever ask for. John, Sarah, Rachel and their team truly served out of great love and care for King Jesus every step of the way.
At Piney Grove Ranch, we commemorated the beginning of life's second greatest gift given by God: Marriage. When I think of that day, I cannot help but think of Piney Grove Ranch and their remarkable team that helped the celebration and vision of the day come true.
To my friends who will be in search of a wedding venue, I couldn't recommend Piney Grove...
