My Favorites: Venues near Sheridan, WY
I planned our intimate Big Horn Mountain wedding while still living in Boston. Our list of needs was pretty small as we planned a relaxed day together. We started with breakfast and then explored our favorite part of the mountain with the photographer, followed by a wildflower meadow ceremony and lunch back in town with our families.
Planning a wedding is complicated, and doing it from a distance adds another layer of complexity. I'm here to help and share fellow vendors and venues that I love working with to create the perfect day for our clients.
Here are a few of my favorite venues in or near Sheridan, WY.
Eaton’s Ranch
America's oldest dude ranch nestled at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains and just 30 minutes from downtown Sheridan, WY. Their wedding availability is limited to 7 weeks each summer and worth choosing your date to fit. For couples planning a destination wedding in the mountains and away from the bustle, Eaton's provides a unique experience for your guests.
Everyone is welcome to stay in historic and gorgeous cabins, take daily horseback riding adventures and celebrate with you as you begin a new life together. I love the staff at Eaton's and bringing the flower magic for weddings of all types.
You can see a traditional June wedding full of peonies and roses and this fresh green and white beauty for a little peek at the venue.

Brinton Museum
The Brinton might be the most popular wedding spot in Sheridan, WY, and for a good reason. Plan your ceremony under the grand trees in front of the old Brinton Ranch House with sweeping lawns and beautiful gardens. Your guests can enjoy a private viewing of the collection inside the museum during cocktail hour while you capture pictures with your family and bridal party. For your reception, their stunning tented patio features exceptional views of the Big Horn Mountains and is surrounded by rolling prairie.
I’ve flowered here several times, and it’s always a pleasure to work with the event staff and enjoy the scenery while setting up.

Big Horn Equestrian Center
Even on the smokiest of August afternoons, the views at the Equestrian Center are still stunning. The expansive green polo fields provide a blank slate anchored by the Big Horn Mountains for your wedding and reception.
The charming polo club has a sweeping porch, and lovely patio strung with lights to dance the evening away.

Barn in Big Horn
Less barn and more beautiful venue, this spot is perfect for intimate gatherings and fun parties. The airy vaulted barn is gorgeous inside, and the large lawn outside is ideal for a tented dinner, lawn games, and a fire in the evening.
This spot is ideal for indoor gatherings with 75 guests or less with more room outside for events with more guests. Are you looking for a place to host a bridal shower or rehearsal dinner in the greater Sheridan area? The Barn in Big Horn is your spot!

World Traveler's Destination Wedding in Wyoming
That happy, just married glow.
When I initially spoke with Amina, they lived in Chicago and were prepping for a big move to South Africa. It was a dream come true and something they’d both worked hard for.
In the meantime, they had a wedding to plan in Wyoming - a place she’d never even been. Matthew grew up spending summers at the Historic Eaton’s Ranch just outside of Sheridan, WY and it was the perfect place to host their families for a simple destination wedding in Wyoming. We planned all her florals over email with a quick call before they left.
She wanted her custom gown from Alexandra Grecco to provide a canvas for her flowers. A bouquet of whites with lots of green and brown textures. I used white garden roses, dried poppy pods from my garden, green millet for texture and a variety of foliages including grevelia, eucalyptus, and ferns. We don’t have many local flowers but a single perfect love in a puff vine added the perfect finishing touch.

You can find their wedding featured by Alexandra Grecco here. When I asked Amina about her dress, she said it was simple and elegant and without embellishment. She wanted to the flowers to add stand out and shine. A bride after my own heart.

Mountaintop wedding at Meadowlark Ski Lodge
When your wedding starts with a ride to the top a mountain on a ski lift, it’s going to be a good day.
Back in March, I met the mother-of-the-bride during a styled shoot at Meadowlark Ski Lodge with a team from Rocky Mountain Bride. She was helping her daughter plan an elegant mountaintop wedding above the lodge in June and asked if I could provide bouquets. I couldn’t be more excited.
These lovebirds currently live in Boston and came home to Wyoming for their summer wedding with a view. During a phone call with the bride, we chatted about my favorite places to eat in Boston, the worlds best croissants and her flower dreams for the day. We planned lush and green bouquets with flowers in white to compliment the neutrals planned for the rest of the day. Anemones, ranunculus, veronica and white roses were the stars of the show.
