Blomgren Ranch

Blomgren Ranch was truly a dream come true!!! Blomgren had plenty of options that we didn't look anywhere else. Elena really shared the excitement of our vision and brought it to life. Elena was well organized and her experience in the party industry took stress off of us. On the day of the Quinceanera we did a walk though before the guest entered. WOW, it was amazing!!!! The lush green lawn, the tables, lighting, florals, decorations, ect., made it better then we envisioned. My daughter was amazed at how everything came together.We trusted Elena suggestions and we have no regrets. The staff was awesome. I'm glad Elena and security ran a tight ship because all the teenagers and young kids running around were safe and had an amazing time. Elena was great working with the vendors and help solve an issue or two that came up.My family and I are so grateful to Elena for walking us through the planning. We enjoyed every minute of this celebration. Can't wait to plan another party there.

This place is very beautiful, however very unorganized. Elena is not very communicative or helpful, people who answer the phones in front office are nice but Elena the manager is rude during my first interaction with her. Look elsewhere... save time.

Blomgren Ranch and the team were amazing on my wedding day! Elena was so helpful especially the WEEK of the wedding. I had some unexpected issues that came up that was stressing me out and she helped me resolve them. I would definitely recommend this venue for any events.

Best Day Of My Life!!! I have been saying that for the last few months, I got married here last September. When I tell you I had the best experience ever, I truly mean it. I went to a wedding the year before and fell in love with the place, then when it was my turn to get married I knew just the place. I gave them a call and it was so smooth and easy. The lady's that have helped me every step of the way are just amazing. They made my experience so stress free. I can't thank them enough!!! We are planning to have my parents wedding anniversary here in the next year and are so excited!!! It's so beautiful here!!!!

If you're looking for a beautiful venue that allows you to party until midnight, I 100% recommend Blomgren ranch. I'm an event planner based in SoCal and have had the pleasure of coordinating a handful of events there. I always have the best experience working with Elena and the rest of the staff. They're always so friendly, and on point with everything. Any questions that arise on the day of, they make sure they're there and accessible to assist you. I love how accommodating they are when it comes to helping with last minute unforeseen situations. They really make sure they work well with all the vendors to problem solve and come up with solutions to make sure the clients and their guests have a beautiful and stress free experience.

Beautiful venue! But like the reviews said beautiful disaster. My sister got married here, I had worked a wedding here a couple years back as a vendor. Didn't have a problem but once we were the people having an event I couldn't be more disappointed. Planning special life events should be fun! Getting to help a bride and family on their special day is something I absolutely love and not seeing that makes me wonder why they are even in this business. No service, okay fine but when you get there the call box is an absolute no and then I was told to not bother calling the office cause they won't be in there. Okay fine. Less attitude and just come open the gate cause we are here and I had no other way of getting in contact than the number right in front of the gate with the one area I was able to get one bar of service? Wi-Fi is only given to the bride and groom, they didn't get it until I had to ask 3 hours being there and then being told she texted it to my sister with attitude. How was she going to get that text with no service? LOLIt's not even about the not getting it, it's the attitude you get when you ask anything. Like they try and belittle you. So inappropriate and unnecessary. They then told us they won't be available to anyone cause they are going on lunch off site.....When you have an event, someone needs to be available to the bride, I'm sorry that's part of your job right? Also the security is excessive, I get it better save than sorry but the bullet proof vests was a bit much. The rest of the staff was okay to me but I didn't love being told by multiple guest how rudely they were treated that night. I mean come on people!! When you have other vendors and the guests and personal experiences that are negative, something isn't working...I don't like writing negative reviews I just hope they can fix what obviously is an issue and if they don't I hope people read the reviews before booking cause we didn't.

ELENA is a "manager" at the ranch, the most unprofessional, rude, racist, and ignorant person to have worked with and spoken with at Blomgren Ranch, she should be fired for the altercation we had today. This place is so unorganized, they have so much to do and are so busy yet ELENA stays yelling for over 10 minutes to a florist over a gate to deliver floral arrangements.She had yelled, did not let the florist speak and made racial comments saying "we don't do that here" is so disrespectful. I'm a manager of a hospital dept. and this was not okay to speak to anyone, when accused her of being a racist and unprofessional she was laughing, she does not belong in a manger position. Take you're money somewhere else.

Recently attended my husbands Christmas party at "the Barn" at Blomgren Ranch. It was decorated with just enough. It was spacious and just a beautiful location. Yes the are fancy port-a-pottys but is a barn on a farm..not a hotel...which btw was 2x more$. I am so grateful to Elena Blomgren! As in the beginning of the party my heels on my fairly new shoes popped off! Omg I couldn't get them back on. I was in my (bright red) socks with no shoes! Elena To the rescue with a new pair of pearl white flip flops from a precious wedding! Elena was attentive the entire time -checking in frequently to make sure everything was running smoothly! Love her and the venue !

Blomgren Ranch is a gorgeous venue in SCV that I would recommend to everyone. We had our local high school reunion there last month. We were able to use the barn which would hold 300 people had we had that many attend. We ended up with 160 people in the barn comfortably with lost of space inside and outside. What a great location for a more relaxed and fun vibe that should come with a reunion. The owner Elena is a cool woman but you have to realize this is her business and she runs it by the book. She is very helpful when it comes to making decisions and she is extremely responsive with all questions. Yes there are rules at this venue and I knew this before hand so it was my job to make the rules clear to everyone... after reading reviews I realize a few people complaining are not the people who were in charge of the event and because of this they may not have been told about the gate restrictions or wifi codes, etc. That blame needs to be put on the person in charge of the event and not the Ranch itself. There is no cell service driving into the venue so if you need to be at the gate at a certain time you need to be there. Dealing with the gate time has to be discussed with everyone in the planning process but having the gate helped me know noone was going to "crash" the party. The person running the event has the say in who gets in that gate and what time. So if security isn't letting you in the gate, that is on your event planner. You cannot show up to the gate at an off time and expect to get in. The venue itself contacts all your vendors and plans times/days that they will be delivering or showing up. This helps so much when planning an event because it's one thing I didn't have to deal with. Security was mentioned in a past post and this venue has their own security and parking attendants. We did not have to hire out. You cannot park up next to the Barn venue when an event starts. You can bring your cars to the venue for pre-setup and then you move your car to the parking lot where you are then driven by a golf cart back up to the venue. This venue has 3 locations you can host an event at and you have to drive by them to get to another which is why people can't come in and out as they please. They are great with directing cars, parking cars and loading up large golf cart type vehicles to bring your guests to the correct venue. It makes it a fun experience. When the event ends they have a cleanup crew ready to go and help for a quick cleanup experience. I am so happy we did out event here and thanks Elena for helping me through this whole process. You made it easy and fun!

Blomgren Ranch was truly our dream wedding venue! It is so beautiful and we were so happy with how everything turned out. We had our wedding at the lower lawn this past June and Elena and all her staff did a great job helping us have our dream wedding. We met with Elena a few times before our wedding and she was so helpful in executing our vision. She worked with us to coordinate with our vendors and always was quick to respond to our questions. On the day of, Elena and her staff helped us deal with a difficult vendor and we could not be more grateful. We got to enjoy our wedding worry free because of their help along with our wedding coordinator Yami! Thank you so much!
