The Historic Bates Mansion is a wedding venue located in Tucson, Arizona. Situated in the heart of the city, this historic building was formerly the home of the famous Mountain Oyster Club. The Club, which has been a part of Tucson’s vibrant social scene since 1948, has moved on, but the Bates Mansion remains a place renowned for its splendor and quality service. There, you and your guests are invited to experience something truly extraordinary. Step back in time as you step forward into the future, and prepare to make memories you’ll cherish forever. Owners Jerry and Vanessa Holland celebrated many weddings, as vendors, at the Bates Mansion. They loved it so much that they leaped at the chance to establish their business there.

Where to begin? We are so happy we scouted out this venue when we did and we gate-kept it for as long as we could but nothing can stop an incredible place like this from getting popular. This is seriously THE spot to get married in Tucson. It has the authentic feel with a modern and classy edge that goes with any aesthetic. Did I mention the bridal and groom suites for getting ready? Unbelievably gorgeous and comfortable. Guests were obsessed with the vibe and the many photo ops throughout the space. David and his team, Rashid the DJ, Vince the bartender, Michelle with Atlas Catering, are absolutely unmatched. We were able to customize where we wanted and ask any questions we needed with a quick response time. Sadly, our wedding had a medical emergency occur (everyone ended up being ok!) and everyone on staff was compassionate and professional. They even followed up with us after our wedding to make sure our guest was doing ok. I cannot say enough positive things about Bates, it truly is something special and we feel lucky to have been married there. We'll never forget it 3

Awarded Best of Zola
If there was 100 stars to give for a review I would do it. Samantha hands down was one of the BEST venue owner/coordinator I talked with and did business with. First off the venue is beautiful and very accurate representation of what Tucson is. So well kept for being a historic place and you get the best of both worlds with having your ceremony on a perfectly maintained grass lawn and then you party inside or outside underneath twinkling lights. This place can do it all and be anything you want it to be for your wedding. Samantha can help you with everything and anything. She is there to help you fulfill your dream wedding! I had no coordinator so I got things done with help from my family and Samantha. Also, she has connections with a photo booth company and several caters that just make it is so easy to put things together. I think the second most important thing that I can say on here is the communication between my self and Samantha was seamless. She was there for me and my husband 24/7 (except on Mondays everyone deserves a day off!) an questions or concerns or suggestions she was available over the phone, txt, email. I never went a day wondering when I would get a response back. It was so stress free. I could count on her 100%. I understand that picking a venue comes at a cost and its scary to trust someone when you think you might get taken advantage of but thats not the case with Corona Ranch. You get a beautiful rustic venue, amazing vendor options (including Dj's I personally went with DJ Thomas), scenic views for amazing pictures, and the best coordinator of all. I still don't have my wedding pictures back or else i would show all that you get with choosing Corona Ranch. I'm a month late with writing this review but my wedding was March 12, 2022!

Beautiful location, especially if you're having some out of town people that haven't been to the desert before! The staff always picked up the phone to answer any & all of my questions we had & same with emails. I felt at ease being an out of state bride. They provided a variety of packages to choose from, which I believe all have a day of coordinator (sooo helpful!!). We had 180 people & the reception hall was pretty full, but we had a 20x20 LED dance floor in the middle, which did take up space. Plenty of food options & tastings you could do!

The day-of coordinator, Sarah, ensured that everything ran smoothly, even when our officiant's ride got lost. The staff used the drawn examples I provided to set up the tables and decor beautifully, so I had no worries as the bride. They were available throughout the event to address any needs, and the casitas were the perfect backdrop for our photographer to capture us getting ready. The rustic setting lent a fairytale feeling to our entire wedding. We are beyond grateful to the Sage Creek team for making our day so perfect.
