About this venue

We are a family owned and operated ranch on 25 acres of land near Homer Alaska. Our family were homesteaders that settled here in the early 50’s and carved out a living in the wilds of Alaska. We have incorporated as much of our heritage as we can into our venue to create an authentic Alaskan experience for you, your family and your guests. We are a “Barn” venue but we are so much more than that with layers of experiences to discover and enjoy. An Alaskan homestead vibe with a noticeable touch of southern hospitality. We will work with you and your vendors during your planning phase to create your unique day. We are always on site to make sure things go smoothly and that every thing goes as planned. We have everything you need on site to create an amazing event, but love to work with you and your vendors of choice to add your personal touches that really make your wedding unique and unforgettable.

  • AKDJ - The Best Wedding Venue in Homer, Alaska

    Verified review
    Ayla Otto, Events b.Feb 3

    As a wedding planner in Alaska who was born and raised in Homer, I’ve had the privilege of working with many local venues, but AK Diamond J Ranch truly stands out. Located in the heart of Homer, this family-run venue offers not only stunning views of the mountains, water, and glaciers but also an experience that is both intimate and unforgettable. What sets AK Diamond J Ranch apart is the dedication and care the owners put into every detail. I’ve known the Jones family for years, and it’s clear that their hands-on approach makes all the difference. They truly go above and beyond to ensure that every wedding is a seamless, stress-free event, and their love for what they do shines through. The venue is fully equipped with everything couples could need for their big day—from tables and chairs to elegant tableware. The pavilion is perfect for dinner with breathtaking views, and the barn is ideal for cocktail hour and dancing, providing a cozy yet spacious atmosphere. Whether you're planning a small, intimate celebration or a larger wedding, AK Diamond J Ranch offers the versatility and charm that make it one of the best wedding venues in the area. If you’re looking for a venue that combines natural beauty with top-notch amenities and exceptional service, look no further. I highly recommend it to any couple looking for a truly unforgettable Alaskan wedding experience!

    As an Alaska wedding planner, I’ve had the pleasure of working at AK Diamond J Ranch multiple times, and it’s truly one of my favorite venues. The ranch offers incredible views, lush open fields, and rustic charm, making it the perfect backdrop for ceremonies and receptions. The pavilion is ideal for dinner with views, (no gross tent here!!) and the barn is cozy for dancing and celebrating. The surrounding scenery allows for endless photo opportunities—especially during golden hour! Beyond the views, what truly sets AK Diamond J Ranch apart is Stephanie, Bills and their kids . They are incredibly kind, professional, and accommodating, ensuring that both couples and vendors have a seamless experience. They genuinely care about their clients, going above and beyond to help create unforgettable weddings. If you're considering a wedding in Homer and want a venue that offers unreal views, flexibility, and a team that truly supports your vision, I highly recommend AK Diamond J Ranch!

    Our experience at AK Diamond J Ranch was nothing short of amazing. The owners were awesome, kind, concise, clear, and incredibly patient throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of their work and overall value was gorgeous, clean, and beautifully rustic. They provided us with great advice, and Stephanie, the owner, was a lifesaver on the wedding day - she swooped in to help my bridesmaids and I with dress mishaps, and had thoughtful essentials like needle and thread on hand for any emergencies. This family-run business truly does incredible work, and I feel so blessed to have been married in their stunning barn venue. I loved every moment of our special day here.
