The venue is a gem! It seriously feels like you've transported out of Melbourne, FL and to somewhere magical. It is such a gorgeous venue and the focus on sustainability is really nice. & Yenny and her family are amazing to work with and really care about you and the special day.

Zach and I are extremely pleased with how well our wedding came out. We had our wedding at Bonita Ranch on 10/11/25. I looked at so many (at least 7 or 8) venues before finding Bonita Ranch and I knew this place was meant to be the first day I came to look at it. Yenny and her crew made the wedding planning so easy and her attention to detail really made it look and feel magical! We are so grateful to have chosen to start our new chapter in life at this venue.

Thank you to the entire team for everything you did to make our wedding so special. I know there was a lot to coordinate in a short time, but you pulled it off flawlessly; clearly, there’s no challenge too big for your crew. The event was beautiful, and many of our guests commented on how stunning everything looked. The attention to detail and thoughtful touches made the entire day feel effortless, memorable, and truly enjoyable. We’re so grateful for your dedication and hard work!

Thank you, Chris and Emily, for trusting us to plan your wedding in just two months and for choosing our all-inclusive package! We took on the challenge with confidence because of our amazing Bonita Ranch staff and the incredible team of vendors we work with — all reliable, passionate, and experienced. It was truly a joy to design your wedding around the Star Wars theme and the beautiful dusty blue and sage green palette you selected. We’re so glad everything came together beautifully, and we’re honored to have been part of such a special day! 💫

We had such a wonderful time at the Mommy and Me Succulent Workshop hosted by Bonita Ranch! The setup was beautiful and kid-friendly, making it a fun and relaxing experience for both moms and little ones. The staff was so welcoming and helpful throughout the workshop. After we finished our adorable succulent arrangements, the kids were treated to snacks—such a thoughtful touch! To top it off, they even got to pick fresh grapes right from the garden, which they absolutely loved. Thank you, Bonita Ranch, for such a memorable and wholesome afternoon. We can’t wait to come back!

Response from the owner 17:47 27 Jul 25

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure to welcome you to Bonita Ranch and share a little bit of the love we have for plants. As a working plant nursery, we believe it’s so important to teach children about the magic of nature and the vital role plants play in our planet’s wellbeing. Watching the little ones enjoy the succulents, the garden, and even picking grapes brought us so much joy! We’re so glad you had a memorable and relaxing afternoon, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for more green adventures. 🌿💚

You can tell they put a lot of care into planning every little detail. It was not only a creative hands-on activity, but also a relaxing way to spend time together and learn something new. Highly recommend for families looking for something meaningful and fun to do together!

We had the best experience planning and hosting our daughter's wedding at Bonita Ranch. Yenny was pleasant to work with, accomodating, and truly went above and beyond to make the evening magical! ✨️ We received many comments from guests about what a beautiful and unique venue Bonita Ranch is. 10/10 recommend.

We had our wedding at Bonita Ranch this fall, and had the absolute best experience! Their team made the planning process easy, and they were so helpful the entire time, with every single detail! They provided us with lots of different recommendations for vendors, and were always prompt with communication and all questions we had along the way. One of the things that made our experience so great was that Bonita Ranch was willing to accommodate a smaller wedding on a Saturday. We struggled to find a location that would host a Saturday wedding for 50 guests or less. When we finally came across Bonita Ranch, they welcomed us with open arms and made us feel like we had come to the right place. They were excited to help us create a beautiful and romantic small wedding, and it was just perfect for us.

Bonita Ranch is such a stunning place, and we loved having our wedding there. The grounds are so perfectly landscaped and cared for, and makes you feel like you are in a fairy tale. The buildings and garden areas are all so elegant, and create a perfect backdrop for a wedding ceremony and photos. It’s also nice that they offer multiple locations for a ceremony. We are so glad we chose Bonita Ranch for our special day, and I would recommend them for any gathering, big or small!

Bonita Ranch saved our wedding. Unfortunately, we had unforeseen circumstances with our original venue, and I was referred to BR from my caterer (Two Chicks & a Pot) and I am forever grateful. I knew from the moment Yenny took my phone call that this was our venue. She was kind and professional and empathetic and so excited to help us plan our dream day. Yenny and Steve made us feel so at home during the tour and they went above and beyond to make our day better than we could imagine. The grounds are pristine and the facility itself is gorgeous, and our guests raved about how beautiful it was. This really was the perfect place to have both the ceremony and reception. They helped us every step of the way and added little touches to our day that just really made the difference. They had so many great connections for vendors that also made our day perfect. Yenny and Steve feel like family to us now having shared our day, and I foresee us going back for a vow renewal. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!
