The Ranch Golf Club located in Southwick Massachusetts is a wedding venue with a country setting. The Ranch offers the bride a country home to get ready in with your girls. There is plenty of room for make up artists and hair dressers to work their magic. The guys usually hang out in the 19th hole before the ceremony, which is secluded out of view if the girls. It is not as glamorous as the farm house the girls get but there are nice grounds do do pre ceremony photos with the guys. The Ranch has an on site ceremony area outside just off the reception room. They furnish an arbor and white chairs. The ceremony site is enclosed on two sides by a stockade fence, not the best background but it hides the parking lots behind the fence.
The farm house the Ranch offers for pre ceremony photo works well, and it makes a good place for the wedding party to take refuse in while waiting for the reception to start. The front hall with stairs makes a great location to show off the bride’s gown.
The ceremony site worked well for all our visits to the Ranch. The processional can proceed through the gate in the fence, or through the sliding door from the reception area.
Doing formal group photography was easy at the Ranch. There are many spots around the barns to get stunning scenic photos without mixing with the golfers. If you desire to go out on the course to do some photos, the staff gladly provides golf carts to facilitate getting this done.
The Ranch also has a great vista for sun set photos right outside of the reception room.
