Dude Ranch Weddings
Congratulations on your upcoming celebration! We host a few
beautiful weddings each year. Should you choose Rock Springs
Ranch for your event, you can rest assured your wedding will be
the utmost priority for our staff. Our wedding coordinator will
assure that every detail is attended to, and we will do our
very best to make your wedding dreams come true.
Most weddings at Rock Springs are a full weekend event, and
follow this general outline: Friday afternoon guests arrive and
check into their cabins. Most of your guests will be
responsible for covering the cost of their accommodations
although you may consider picking up the tab for your wedding
party. After the rehearsal, we serve the rehearsal dinner.
Saturday morning we serve breakfast (or brunch) to those guests
staying on property. Following the wedding, (here or at the
church) we cater the reception with either extensive hors
dí oeuvres or a full meal. Sunday morning we invite your
guests to join the newlyweds for breakfast or brunch, and then
your guests depart!

Facilities
Rock Springs Ranch is ideal for weddings because we offer exclusive use of the property to your party; there will not be any other guests or events on the property for the whole weekend. You will find the ranch to be the perfect setting for a personal, intimate wedding for up to about 100 guests.

Food
Our chef specializes in fine northwest cuisine served in our
traditional ranch style. Select your menus, and we will do the rest. We
have a broad range of menu options to put together the event
that fits both your style and budget. Special menu requests can
be accommodated on an individual basis.
Activities
There are many activities you may wish to
incorporate into your wedding weekend here at Rock Springs
Ranch such as horseback riding, gourmet barbeque, and a
campfire. Keep in mind that some of these activities are
weather dependent.
Size
Rock Springs Guest Ranch has the size capability to accommodate a maximum of 100 people for your wedding and reception during seasons when the weather keeps us indoors. We have cabins to house about 50 people for the weekend. Our tastefully appointed cabins feature knotty pine paneling in a rustic yet comfortable atmosphere. Please refer to our room rates and cabin descriptions for more information.
Minimum Billing
We have required minimum billing amounts for weddings, which
are adjusted seasonally. These minimums are for the total of
facility charges, food, beverage, and all other charges
for Rock Springs products or services. Room charges for both
Friday and Saturday night might be paid by wedding guests,
rather than be included in the master bill, but would be
credited to the minimum nonetheless. In other words, these
minimums do not automaticly include anything. You build your
own package including facilities, food, beverage, etc.
Not included toward the minimum are charges from other
companies that are either billed through Rock Springs or paid
directly. This includes such things as equipment rentals and
photographers services. Also not included are room tax and 15%
service gratuity.

"The smell of Juniper and pine outside, the crackling of the fire in the big stone fireplace in Rock Springs' lodge, this was the setting for our daughter's wedding. It was her dream wedding. A big advantage for me, the mother-of-the-bride, is that Rock Springs did all the work. They have a great organizational plan, done in detail, of what they take care of. There was super follow through. The lodge looked nice. The chairs were all set up. The food was the best; all the guests commented on it. "
