Our Favorite Spaces at Hart Meadows Ranch 

Sweet Grass Island

Crossing an arched footbridge leads you to Sweet Grass Island, a secluded paradise within this sweet venue! Draped in fragrant jasmine and equipped with wrought iron furniture, this spot offers a truly serene setting for your wedding ceremony, or simply a breathtaking space for your guests to stumble upon! The pond views, floating fountain, and tranquil vibes make it a perfect location for any part of your incredibly special event! 

The Secret Garden (Shhh!)

Concealed by a winding stone path, The Secret Garden allows brides to make her grand entrance, completely unseen, until the perfect moment! Emerging through hand-carved barn doors, she then proceeds across their curved footbridge to Sweet Grass Island, where her groom awaits under their jasmine-covered arbor; pinch us! It’s an entrance that promises to leave a lasting impression on all who witness.
