Why Choose a Multi-Day Wedding?

Let’s face it: one day just isn’t enough to take it all in. A multi-day wedding gives you and your guests more time to celebrate without the pressure of a packed timeline. From heartfelt welcome gatherings to late-night stargazing, each extra moment adds depth to your celebration.

Arrive Early, Settle In, and Make It Yours

At Vista West Ranch, our multi-day bookings begin on Thursday, giving couples the chance to arrive early, unwind, and start bringing their vision to life.
Whether you're adding personal DIY touches to your ceremony space or simply enjoying a peaceful evening under the Texas sky, Thursday sets the tone for a relaxed and intentional weekend.

Use this time to:

Thursday: Arrival + Relaxation
Your wedding weekend begins with a peaceful Thursday arrival. This is a chance to step onto the property, take a deep breath, and let the magic begin at your own pace. With early access to Vista West Ranch, you’ll have the time and space to ease into the celebration without the rush.

One of the most cherished parts of the day? The hands-on joy of DIY decorating with your closest friends and family. Whether you’re arranging centerpieces, or creating personalized signs, there’s something incredibly special about working together to bring your vision to life. It’s less about perfection—and more about connection, laughter, and the little moments that become memories in themselves.

Music playing, drinks in hand, and surrounded by your people—it’s a soft launch into the weekend that sets the tone for everything to follow: relaxed, meaningful, and full of love.

Friday: Rehearsal, Welcome, and Connection

Friday unfolds with a sense of ease and excitement. Start the day with a relaxed breakfast and enjoy some downtime before your rehearsal. With no need to rush between venues or stick to tight schedules, your rehearsal can be a meaningful moment rather than a formality—an opportunity to ground yourselves, feel present, and walk through the ceremony with intention.

After the rehearsal, we recommend heading just down the road to 12 Fox Beer Co. for a laid-back rehearsal dinner. It’s the perfect spot to unwind with your closest people—think cold brews, good food, and Hill Country views. Best of all? No setup or cleanup stress. You get to relax, connect, and ease into the celebration with zero pressure and a whole lot of charm.

As the evening winds down, return to the ranch for a cozy night under the stars or a casual hangout with your wedding party. It’s a soft launch into the weekend that sets the tone for everything to follow: relaxed, meaningful, and full of love.
Saturday: The Big Day

With everything already in place and your closest people nearby, Saturday morning feels calm and centered. There's no scrambling or last-minute stress—just coffee on the porch, laughter in the getting-ready suites, and the buzz of anticipation in the air.

Then comes the moment you’ve been waiting for: a ceremony under wide Texas skies, a celebration that’s both breathtaking and personal, and a reception that keeps the energy going long into the night. From tearful toasts to packed dance floors, Saturday is your time to shine, surrounded by the people who matter most.
Sunday: A Sweet Send-Off

Sunday morning arrives quietly, with soft light and a sense of calm. Guests check out of their accommodations and begin to say their goodbyes, carrying with them the joy and connection of a weekend well spent. For those not quite ready for it to end, Dripping Springs offers plenty of charming spots to grab brunch, sip coffee, and reminisce about the celebration.

It’s a gentle close to a meaningful weekend—one that gave you time to truly soak it all in.

Make It Yours at Vista West Ranch

Your wedding should be more than just an event—it should be a feeling, an experience, and a memory that unfolds over days, not hours. At Vista West Ranch, we’re honored to provide the space, time, and setting to help you create something truly unforgettable.

Let the celebration breathe. Let the moments linger. Let your love story fill an entire weekend.
