Venue Features
The scene:
You may choose to have cocktails in The Park followed by dinner under a canopy of stars and sycamore trees...which is Sycamore Lane. If a barn atmosphere is more your dining style, there's that as well! Dancing can be adjacent to any dining environment. The Ranch is less than a 1/2 mile from Solvang, which is a charming Danish town with plenty of accommodation options, restaurants shopping and activities. All food, beverage, restrooms , etc., must be brought in to the Ranch - however I'm very happy to recommend full-service caterers and coordinators who'll be able to take care of all these details for you.
Design:
Whispering Rose Ranch is one of the most elegant ranch estates in the world...with over 100 horses on over 80 acres, a race track, multiple barns and a pond, you and your guests will experience a truly romantic setting.
Standout venue features:

Whispering Rose Ranch also offers customizable options for decor, seating arrangements, and catering, ensuring a personalized touch to every aspect of the wedding.
