When my husband and I were planning our wedding, finding a venue with Texas charm was top priority to wow our out-of-town guests. We found the perfect rustic backdrop at Hofmann Ranch!From the moment we arrived, our guests couldn't stop raving about the ranch's scenic landscapes. Seeing the longhorns roaming just added to that authentic ranch experience. We wish we could get married all over again. Between the charming ranch details everywhere and helpful coordinators, they made our dream wedding come true! Thank you Hofmann Ranch team! Reviewed on 27-12-2023

The Hoffman Ranch by WedgeWood Weddings is where book for a perfect wedding. The staff works together to make your day special. Me and my husband live 4 hours away from the venue and weâre worried about finding a place and vendors. It was an answered prayer when we learned about the packages WedgeWood offers. They covered everything. The employees, Brittany and Sarah were amazing. They were right by our side. They guided us through the planning process. They also directed and lead the way the day off. Allowing us to truly be present and enjoy the moment. Reviewed on 15-06-2023

From the start they are warm and helpful in the planning process to try to make sure you get what you want for your wedding day. I was looking for a venue that did it all and this place had it. They helped with keeping in contact with different vendors and helping you stay on track with planning. We even had a weird request to have a mechanical bull during our reception and they told us we can and we did. We were able to provide a great experience to our guests and they helped us get there.

I would recommend using Hofmann Ranch as they have a phenomenal team, incredible vendors, and above all else they have a beautiful venue.They were extremely helpful and attentive throughout the entire wedding planning process. They provided so much insight and advice. The day we toured the venue we fell in love with the team and the location. Once our contract was signed we were provided with a binder full of worksheets and advice for planning our big day. Every detail was planned and prepared for. By the time the wedding day arrived, I was entirely stress-free knowing they had everything under control. They offer packages to meet everyone's needs.

Angela Camp(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-05-2021 We chose this venue for the all inclusive aspect. Thereâs multiple places on the site to get married. We had our ceremony on the brick patio, buffet style dinner inside, and dancing/reception under the pavilion. They do their best to work with your budget while spending the âminimumâ for that certain day. For 79 guests we spent right at $16k. That included beer and wine( two bottles of wine at each table for your guests at dinner). They made sure not to run out of our beer of choice! The coordinators and captains were very professional and made the entire process, especially the day of run so smoothly. The hors dâoeuvres and dinner were amazing and all of our guests complimented the food. They decorate and clean up, a few things were left behind but that will happen on a busy night. DJ, invitations, floral, cake and officiant were also included in the package we chose.I would 100% recommend Hofmann ranch for the coordinators!! They do all the work for you with their preferred vendors, all you do is give them your vision and they make it a reality.The only downfall is you only get 2 hours before ceremony time to be in the hen house (bridal suite).So we had to get ready at a nearby hotel, it just felt very rushed to get in the dress and take the pictures that you wanted before you walk down the isle. And thereâs no place for the groom and groomsmen to get ready. Still Hofmann Ranch was a 5 star experience for us and our guests! Reviewed on 02-06-2021

My questions were always and I mean ALWAYS answered. My husband got activated for the military 5 times (even days before the wedding) and they always kept me calm and were very understanding! Every time we had an issue, they solved it right away! I went to 2 weddings during the same year and both had coordinators and both were extremely disorganized! So everyone always said âI hope your wedding turns out better than this because it was all over the place.â And honestly, Hofmann ranch coordinators went above and beyond what I even expected! The day before , I panicked that things wouldnât get done right but they ensured me everything would be taken care of and of course, it was perfect. The signs were placed in the right place, the tables looked fantastic, everything was right on schedule. Just sooo perfect. Both of our families were extremely impressed with how everything was flowing so smoothly. Dont second think this venue, itâs worth the price!!!! I promise, you will get your moneyâs worth!!!!

Erin Peterson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-09-2020 I have only wonderful things to say about Wedgewood Weddings & Hofmann Ranch. I was supposed to get married in California, but due to Covid, that was not possible. We were lucky enough where Wedgewood allowed us to move our wedding to a different location. A location which was more our style than our previous location. Planning a wedding during a pandemic is not easy, especially not when it is in another state. However, they made it easy, effortless and fun! On the wedding day, Teigan & Carolyn were so wonderful. They set up everything just as we had imagined. They were so attentive to our needs, and what the guests needed as well. I am beyond grateful for all of the hard work that they put in to make our wedding happen. It was beautiful and honestly better than we could have dreamed of. We chose the elite package, which included everything AND the pricing was very reasonable. Our wedding package included a Minister, DJ, Bartender, Caterer, Dessert, Florist, and probably a few others that I am missing. But every single vendor was AMAZING, Wedgewood did an amazing job selecting every one of these because they were all so great to work with- very professional and enthusiastic. Our Elite package really took all of the stress off of us and that was one of the main things we loved! We know a lot of people were not as lucky when moving around their wedding, but they made it so easy and were so empathetic and caring. If you are worried about a pandemic impacting your special day, I would recommend Wedgewood at Hofmann Ranch because they are beyond willing to make your day perfect! Reviewed on 08-10-2020
Laura Kline(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-09-2020 This venue was amazing!

They take care of the set up on the day of the wedding, they make sure everything runs on time, they make sure that not just my husband and I are comfortable and having fun, but that our guests also are. The price is a little more expensive but honestly everything you get for the cost is worth it to me! I didnât have to worry about setting up for the ceremony or reception, they did all of that, I just provided the decor I wanted used and they placed it all. The food was amazing! We had the chicken Marsala and turkey and it was a huge hit! The caterer was through the venue so that was another stress taken off my shoulders. They also have a DJ they use so you know heâll be good which he was! The venue itself was absolutely gorgeous, I was in love the second I stepped foot on the grounds for the tour and I had a lot of guests telling me how much they loved our venue.

From my first click onto the site I was in love! I immediately sent the website to my bridal party and my now husband. Tiegan was extremely flexible with working with us to make sure we felt good, since we booked the venue without actually seeing it in person. I was even able to send my Mother-in-law to scope things out for me which made me feel even better about booking them. Thank goodness for FaceTime.lol The pictures and videos on the site are what first made me fall in love, but when I first set foot onto the gravel at the venue I was even more excited to have our big day there. Everything from the start felt right, and I had no doubt about having our wedding there. They even supplied a list of vendors which helped me when planning everything out, since it can be kind of overwhelming at times. Mark was also awesome! I am not a drinker so I had no idea about what the bar should serve, but we had a chat before the big day and he helped me feel secure in our decisions for that part of the wedding. Our friends and family loved the bar staff! Having Tiegan, on top of our wedding planner, there to assist in coordinating the wedding to ensure everything flowed smoothly was definitely a weight lifter.

Sarah L(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-05-2019 We love Hofmann Ranch and everything that came with it. My husband and I had talked about getting married at Hofmann Ranch a few months before we even got engaged. We strongly felt that Hofmann Ranch perfectly encompassed the balance between showcasing the Texas Hill country while displaying class and elegance. The venue was everything we couldâve ever asked for & more. We actually toured the venue and booked the same day we got engaged because we loved it so much. The best part about Hofmann Ranch is Teigan! I canât say enough positive things about her to fully explain how helpful and kind she was during our planning process. On the day of our wedding, we were concerned because of unexpected wind and Teigan helped us change some of our initial plans while still keeping our overall theme. I love being able to look back at pictures and say that we truly achieved our dream of having a fully outdoor wedding. We had several out of town and out of state guests who were blown away by the class that Hofmann Ranch had. Many of our guests expected our rustic wedding to be less formal than it was, but Teigan helped us maintain our top priority which was âclass.â It was so nice to be able to get married at a venue that was hassle-free and be able to focus on my groom rather than all of the small and large logistics. Also I might mention that decorations seemed nearly effortless, though the ranch was very large. That is because the ranch is filled with greenery and plants which added to our style. Getting married in May was the best thing we couldâve chosen because all of the ranch was blooming with greenery! I will never regret booking through this venue because was everything we couldâve asked for and more! It was truly worth every penny and I would recommend any couple who loves the Texas Hill country to visit Hofmann and consider booking. It truly feels like a comfortable and family oriented Ranch.

Maranda Kuiper(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-05-2016 At the start of my wedding planning I had my heart set on a ranch outdoor wedding. When I discovered the Hofmann ranch online I thought it was too good to be true. I actually live out of the country, so my parents first went to look at the ranch and face timed me while they were there. Mrs. Hofmann gave the tour to my parents and I (on face time). They made everything so clear, showed me everything and answered all of my questions. Let's just say that the pictures online don't do the place justice. Even through face time I was able to see the beauty of the Hofmann Ranch. I knew it was the perfect place and booked right away over the phone.The venue both outside and inside are absolutely beautiful. The grounds outside are so green and well kept. So many hidden gems around every corner and you truly have the outdoor rustic feel. It has been 2 weeks now since we got married and my guests are still raving about how beautiful everything was. Not only is the venue beautiful. The Hofmann's were so great to work with. They are kind and genuine people and they are truly there to help you and make your wedding day amazing. I had most contact through email and Cindy was always there to answer all of my questions! If you are looking for a outdoor and ranch type of wedding definitely go check out the Hofmann Ranch.

We had two wood cake stands that were made for us and both did not work for us the day of. Charlotte and Hans had wood from a tree that was already cut and let us use that as our cake stand. It was extremely thoughtful and we loved it! Aaron & I are both fans of the outdoors so we loved that we were able to have both our ceremony and reception outdoors. We also loved the fact that if it rained we had a back up plan and could use the hall. We were always updated every step of the way.

As I walked around I could finally envision where I would stand in my dress next to the absolutely breathtaking foliage and flowers, imagine my bridal party cascading down the grande hall staircase, and saying \"I do\" under the archway as the sunset behind us. The cost included a site for the ceremony and cocktail hour, then inside the grande hall for dinner, and back outside for an outdoor reception so we got three separate spaces in one AND a day of coordinator- such a value! The grounds were so beautiful that I had no need for chair covers, or extra decor other than my centerpieces. \rThe staff was fabulous! Mrs. Charlotte, Cindy, and Heather were great with communication and vendor tips, they answered every question I had, and even helped me with ideas on how to make things work when needed.

It has the perfect amount of country charm yet, has a sense of elegance and beauty. The variety of rental options allowed us to plan the perfect ceremony/reception combination. The Antique Gates were perfect for our beautiful outdoor ceremony. We utilized the Pavilion for appetizer hour and then moved inside the Grande Hall for reception.

My husband & I chose The Grande Hall at Hofmann Ranch for our January 2015 wedding and we have no regrets. The Grande Hall is beautiful with it's polished wood feel that is unique enough but also neutral enough for any event theme from rustic to modern elegance. It has a beautiful two story balcony, a hardwood dance floor, a couple of built in bars, rustic accent pieces, wooden columns, a double staircase and metal chandeliers. The staff was exceptionally attentive, especially Cindy and Kendra. They made themselves readily available to myself and my family anytime we wanted another walk-through to plan the layout, had questions about the reception timeline, etc. They handled all the details of my vendor arrivals, decor set up times, table layouts, linens, basically everything the week of my event. All I needed to do was cross my fingers for good weather and show up! Kendra even kept our reception on time when the sleet slowed us down and forced us inside. She handled the changes of inclement weather smoothly with a Plan A & B and it all came together so beautifully no one knew we had originally planned something different. She ensured my husband & I had a chance to eat, got family photos taken, provided me with guidance when to cut the cake, do our first dances, and was always nearby to get get me anything I needed. She was very sweet, calm, professional and attentive. Overall our experience at Hofmann was flawless.

From the scenic outdoors, to the spacious yet intimate indoors...the Hofmann Ranch provided many memorable, beautiful memories for our wedding. We wanted the beauty of the Texas hill country to radiate for our guests, especially those from out of town, and the Hofmann Ranch had that \"It Factor\" we just couldn't resist. It was meant to be with an affordable price, especially for a Sunday wedding. Cindy, and Mr and Mrs Hofmann worked so patiently and kindly with us. Cindy helped tremendously with the preferred Vendor list, options for the layout of tables for our guests, answering my millions of questions, and providing advice that helped for a smooth wedding rehearsal. They were like family making sure the place was perfect from the Hen House to the outdoor and indoor locations. We also got all our requests from the sheriffs with their horses to the Chiavari Chairs. Our dream wedding was made a reality. Highly recommend the Hofmann Ranch! Reviewed on 26-01-2015
Jessica Dureell(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-10-2014 Very much enjoyed working with the folks at Hofmann Ranch and they made our wedding day very special. We had so many compliments on the venue. The venue sets the tone for your whole wedding, so it was a vital decision to create the setting I had envisioned in my mind. Utilizing the outdoors was really key, but obviously dependent on the weather. Texas is hot most of the year, so we tried to stay on the cooler side and picked October. While the weather was a little warm for the ceremony, it cooled down so fast and was pleasant to have dinner outside in the pavilion. They are flexible to work with many vendors of your choosing, so that was nice not to be restricted to one or two. Gorgeous venue for a Texas hill country feel, would recommend it to anyone who has the budget for it! I cannot wait to get my pictures to re-live it and see how it all turned out, as a bride, you miss many of the little details the day of! Reviewed on 05-11-2014
Lucia Vielma(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-09-2014 When looking for a wedding venue, we wanted a place with a Texas feel AND a great outdoor ceremony space. Although there were other venues that were similar in style to Hofmann Ranch, none of them had outdoor covered spaces. This was important to us since we didn't want to get rained on or have the sun beating down on our guests, and we didn't want to be forced inside for the ceremony either.\r\rAll our guests loved the setting and we got so many compliments on our beautiful wedding venue. There are a ton of spots for great pictures, and our guests took advantage of those too.\r\rThe only things I would caution other brides about is the time. You have access to the venue, including the hen house where the bridal party can get ready, 3 hours before the ceremony start. With two people doing hair and one doing makeup, that was barely enough time for me, my mom and 2 bridesmaids to get ready, and my bridesmaids did their own makeup. Someone with a larger party would need more hair/makeup people since they won't give you more time. The other thing that could be an issue is getting everything out of the hen house an hour after the ceremony's done. That wasn't an issue for me since I had such a small bridal party, but if you have a larger one or people who aren't very helpful, it might be more stressful.\r\rIn the end, we had a wonderful time on our wedding day and I am glad we settled on Hofmann Ranch!!

This venue is absolutely beautiful and the service goes above and beyond to make your dream wedding come true. This venue is wedding ready without a lot of decoration needed but is to die for adding a few flowers or whatever to the tables.

Gary took care of all of my decorating needs and I would recommend using him also! I wasn't even stressing over how things were going to look or turn out because the venue was perfect already, and this is coming from a bride who planned her wedding that was about 300 miles away! It's well worth the cost. This venue is only 30 minutes away from downtown San Antonio and is just far enough away that you don't feel like your in the city anymore but it's just a short trip away.

The entire Hofmann family will take care of you from the time you walk in for the first tour, to the time you exit after your reception. We received several compliments about the venue - the setting, the lighting, the patio, the staff, the landscaping - I could go on and on. When you book with Hofmann, explore your catering options available to you, but I highly recommend going with Gary Carter and the Castroville Cafe. Gary knows the venue and the owners and this makes the reception flow flawlessly. The only drawbacks - and this just takes forethought and planning - 1. make sure your video that you plan on playing during the reception is in DVD format and not a powerpoint. Get it to them EARLY to test it out. Also, 2. if you are planning on cocktail hour inside and dinner outside, make sure your DJ plans on having music playing in both places or 3. make sure that you have communicated with Hofmann about having an iPod or some other medium for music ready to go.

Somer Stone(bride)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-12-2011 I recently had my wedding at the Grande Hall at the Hofmann Ranch. It was a beautiful affair, but buyer beware, although the venue is perfect, the owner, Mrs. Hofmann is a very difficult to work with. Although the venue says they accommodate 600, if you want all of your guests in one place (either the hall, pavilion, or patio), 200 is more appropriate. My wedding had about 200 people in the hall, and it was VERY crowded. I canât imagine if there were 600! This is a great place for the bride who doesnât want to plan or worry about anything, but let Gary and Mrs. Hofmann do everything. However, if you have a special vision for your wedding, it is very difficult to convey and execute with Mrs. Hofmann. She is an older lady who prefers to do weddings EXACTLY like every other wedding she does. If you want to do something âdifferent,â she is not accommodating, and is slightly rude about it. She should realize that each bride does NOT want her wedding like other brides. Each wants to be unique and different in her own way. This is not the case at this venue. My mother and I had to fight with Mrs. Hofmann for every little thing which was extremely stressful. Mrs. Hofmann has a âhenhouseâ for the bridal party to get ready in â however, we were told we had to be out of there an hour AFTER our ceremony started â it was a nightmare! Here I was about to walk down the aisle with my dad, worrying about packing up!! The bride and her party also should have a spot at a venue where they can have a restful moment and relax. I asked Mrs. Hofmann where I was supposed to put my things and she acted like it was no problem for me to put my things in my getaway car â so every time I needed to take a breather, I had to go out to my car! I asked her where to put my makeup bag (every bride needs to reapply lipstick!), and she said to put my purse on the head table â yeah right!! Instead, my MOH had to âhideâ my purse in the kitchen which we had to get out every time I needed to refresh. This was a PAIN. The henhouse (which we PAID for) should have been available to the bride and her party throughout the venue. Although we did have some time for a rehearsal dinner, when my guests showed up 30 minutes early (which is normal), the gate was locked and it was a hassle for them to get Mrs. Hofmann to open it up for them because she was so rude about them being early. Many of my bridal party members tried to stay inside the hall beforehand because it was freezing cold outside. Mrs. Hofmann had another âbrideâ she was consulting with and was extremely rude when my MOH asked if they could stay inside until everyone arrived. When I arrived, Mrs. Hofmann immediately accosted me and told me I HAD to get the rehearsal started immediately, despite the fact that I hadnât seen many of these people in many years. It was very awkward and weird because we were also waiting for my dad to show up. She still insisted we start rehearsing without him! Later, I was told by my vendors that on the day of the wedding, Mrs. Hofmann was very rude and acted as though they were barging in on her venue. This was their job to set up! She was overlooking their shoulders and telling one of my designer friends how dare she take down the hallâs ornaments on her Christmas trees â we were told we could decorate the trees however we wanted! I wish I could write more but I have run out of space. Good luck with Mrs. Hofmann!! Reviewed on 04-01-2012

Our DJ, Brandon from Platinum DJ was also good with keeping a schedule so we had double the help! Loved the hen house where we got dressed. It is so wonderfully furnished and decorated so it was great when they took photos of my dress and the bridal party getting ready. Yes, there is a time limit to get everything out of the hen house after the ceremony but we had no problems at all. \rCharolette was a joy and easy to work with. Charolette and Hans Hofmann really have a great place to host weddings and other events. I had so many compliments from family and friends. They also had a tv screen that we were able to have a slideshow play during the reception. Also you have to provide your own alcohol so we saved $$ going to H.E.B. I highly recommend this place to anyone. In fact I have cousin who may also be having there wedding there next year! We were truly blessed to find such a beautiful place to have our wedding that we will cherish forever! Reviewed on 06-12-2011
Christina Stuart(bride)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 05-11-2011 Well at first the owners, well specifically I mean Charlotte, was very hospitable. I mean she is trying to sell the place isn't she! Well my husband and I came to see the hall with my parents who she was very rude to, but she did however cater more to my opinions and needs. They have very strict rules which I understand is to preserve such a beautiful venue, but the restrictions got a little ridiculous later on. I had asked if I could take my bridal portraits there, and Charlotte just said that when I get a date set to call and schedule a time. Well I am from the area but live out of town and the only day my photographer and I could do it was a Monday. When I called she gave me all sorts of attitude saying that was their (and I must mentioned not advertised) \"day off\". She did however let us schedule that day. Even my photographers mentioned that they don't like working with the ranch specifically because of her. The wedding was hard to cram into a five hour window which was all we had for the $$$ we paid for it. We only had an hour for rehearsal which had to be scheduled at noon on the Friday before because they scheduled a wedding there the night before mine. This was a big inconvenience for my wedding party since half of them are in school and the other half have jobs. The day of the wedding was fine up until the reception. I love that they have a place, the \"hen house\ Reviewed on 15-11-2011

Kelly Beck(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-09-2011 We had our wedding at the Hofmann Ranch in September, and it was absolutely beautiful. I can't even count how many compliments we have received about what a gorgeous venue we had! Gary (the caterer) is wonderful to work with, and the food was absolutely delicious! Charlotte and Hans, the owners, are very nice. My only advice is to ask lots of questions, because there are many rules that are meant to protect the Hall, which is totally understandable. Most venues have a list of rules or a contract so that you know up front, but we didn't get one so we just found out things along the way. Everything turned out fine, and if I had it to do over again I would definitely still use the Grande Hall! Our wedding turned out beautifully, with a lot of credit due to the team at the Hofmann Ranch! Reviewed on 30-10-2011
Molly Waddell(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-10-2011 The Grande Hall at Hofmann Ranch was where I held my ceremony and reception. Before our wedding Charlotte, the owner, was great. On the day of I felt rushed to get all of my stuff out of the Hen House (bridal preparation house) because I was told that I would have up to an hour after our event to get everything out before it was locked up. Instead my mom was told that the stuff needed to come out immediately before the reception had even began. So people had to scramble over to gather everything up. Everything else was great. Gary (Catroville Cafe), the designated caterer for this venue, kept everything running smooth. Thank you. Reviewed on 24-10-2011
Jessica Hernandez(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-05-2011 This place is gorgeous. The owner, Charlotte, was great to work with. You can have your ceremony on the patio and the reception in the hall or under the pavilion. We opted to have it indoors because we thought it would be too warm outside. However, there are two floors in the hall and some of our guests who sat upstairs didn't like being up there all night. Reviewed on 01-06-2011
