2022 is gearing up to be a year filled with more celebrations of love than we’ve seen in almost 40 years. One trend on the rise is the multi-day experience. Couples are spreading their celebrations out over a few days as opposed to just their wedding day. And this is a trend I am 100% behind! I love that couples are seizing the opportunity to schedule pre and post-wedding events to maximize the time they get to spend with their friends and family. Extra time with your guests is especially important if you have people traveling fro out of town. Piney River Ranch is the perfect wedding venue for this cause it is not only a scenic place to exchange your vows, but has everything you need to stay and soak it all in for a few days!

Staying at Piney River Ranch

Piney River Ranch has both glamping tents and cabins for you to stay in. They also provide catering and have an on-site bar and restaurant, so that’s one less thing you have to worry about. There isn’t any WiFi or cell service, so that’s something to be mindful of. I quite like that, honestly. It allows you to be truly off-grid and to connect with people on a deeper level instead of worrying about checking Instagram every 30 seconds.

Piney River Ranch offers more than a beautiful place for you to get married. It is a full-on experience for you and your guests. This mountain wedding venue connects you not just to nature, but to each other. And that is something I am in full support of!
