Perfect Venue
THANK YOU to Susan and Ron!! They went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. Susan consistently checked in with me as the day got closer to ensure everything was falling into place. Even on the wedding day she made sure my husband and I were happy and packed up our leftovers at the end of the night. (which was the best thing to wake up to, amazing left overs)! I am so grateful we found their amazing property, it was so green and lush, more than I could have imagined. One more thing, she even set up a projector movie in the barn for the exhausted kiddos. Unfortunately we did not end up using it, but the thought of doing that was AMAZING. I can't thank them enough.
Response from vendor•Dec 19, 2024We had such fun with this wedding! Creative uses of space, dancing under the stars, an amazing cigar bar under the trees. So enjoyed this couple, their family and the entire guest list! Thank you for choosing Big Canyon Acres!Excellent Venue
Big Canyon Acres is a fantastic wedding venue! As a vendor, I've had the pleasure of working with them on multiple occasions and have always been impressed by their communication and attention to detail. The owner, Susan, is incredibly responsive and goes above and beyond to ensure the bride and groom's needs are met. The venue itself is clean, spacious, and offers plenty of options for couples to customize their special day. As a photographer, I love the variety of backgrounds and settings available for capturing beautiful wedding photos. I'm always excited when I get booked to shoot a wedding at this venue, as I know the owners truly want the best for the couple on their big day.
Response from vendor•Dec 20, 2024Shane is the best!! We are always so grateful when he is the photographer for weddings at our place! He is easy to work with and we know every image he captures will be stunning.SUSAN & HER TEAM ARE AMAZING
Our experience at Big Canyon Acres was truly exceptional. From the moment we first reached out, the venue's communication was efficient, informative, and incredibly friendly. Susan and her team went above and beyond to ensure our special day was everything we dreamed of and more. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with stunning scenery that provided the perfect enchanted backdrop for our wedding. Susan was an absolute pleasure to work with, continuously checking in on us and our wedding party throughout the day to make sure we had everything we needed. The decor and table settings were impeccable, and the overall value of this venue was priceless. We would highly recommend Big Canyon Acres to any couple looking for a stunning, accommodating, and comfortable wedding venue.
