The Catering Director is available to assist you with your event and menu selection and is here to answer any questions or concerns. Our menus offer a wide variety of items from which to choose, however, our Catering Director and Executive Chef are available to create specialty menus to suit your special occasion. We ask that you submit your completed menu selections to the Catering Director at least two weeks prior to your event to ensure availability of your selected menu items.

The Ranch Country Club will not assume responsibility for any personal property, belongings, or equipment brought onto the property. We reserve the right to monitor and control all private parties, meetings, and receptions held on our premises.

Functions will be scheduled during normal Club operating hours. Specific beginning and ending times will be determined for every event at the time of planning, with no event lasting more than five hours.

Wedding Information
All food and beverage must be purchased and consumed on premise, and no food or beverage may be consumed at the Club other than that provided by the Club. The only exception will be wedding and other ceremonial cakes. To hold a wedding ceremony at The Ranch, you must also host the reception here. If you want The Ranch's majestic view for your engagement pictures, please reserve a time with our Catering Department to ensure that the area is not being used. The golf course is off limits. No rice or birdseed is allowed.
~ Children ~
We at The Ranch Country Club welcome children to your event! That being said, the children are NOT allowed on any golf greens. There are two in close proximity to the reception site, and often children think that they are a play area. Please warn parents that children playing on golf greens will be asked to return to the reception area, as we need to keep our greens in pristine condition.
~ Photography ~
When taking your wedding photos here at The Ranch Country Club, we ask that you please respect the golfers. We do not allow photos to be taken on any part of the course, and in addition must be taken 50 yards away from all golf greens and tees. Please suggest to your photographer that they visit the site beforehand so they know where they would like to take you that day.
~ Alcohol ~
No outside beverages of any kind are allowed on the premises. The Ranch Country Club reserves the right to refuse alcohol service to all minors. Please warn your guests that we will card people who look under 30. We do have a security staff that does patrol the premises and will make us aware of any drinking going on in the parking lot or any other inappropriate area.
~ Attire ~
We would like you to ask your guests to dress appropriately for your event. No t-shirts, denim, ripped clothing or muscle shirts please.
~ Wedding Rehearsals ~
For those clients having wedding ceremonies at our facility, we would be happy to schedule a wedding rehearsal before your event. The rehearsal may take place on the day and time of your choice, but must be approved by the Catering Director. Your rehearsal may take no longer than one hour, and we ask that only those involved in the wedding ceremony itself are present for the rehearsal. Please have your minister available to run the rehearsal; the Catering Director will be available to help with the flow of the ceremony if you wish. Please make sure your guests follow the dress attire stated above during the rehearsal. Keep in mind that the bar and restaurant are for members only, so your guests must stay with the group during the rehearsal.
~ Vendor List ~
Please give the Catering Director a list of your vendors prior to your event.
