We had my son's wedding at Conrad Ranch in July. It is an absolutely beautiful venue up Provo Canyon. We did a ring ceremony, dinner, and a reception. The landscaping and flowers completely exceeded my expectations. We did experience a few glitches in the planning phase, however, everything was correct the day of, and the wedding went off without a hitch. read more

Conrad Ranch is a family run venue and event space in Provo Canyon. The venue itself is situated a few miles up Provo Canyon off of the Vivian Park exit. During the summer and especially during the fall Conrad Ranch is beautiful. We had our wedding and wedding reception at Conrad Ranch this past September 2011. We had an outdoor ceremony under a large grove of trees on the property next to a small pond. The fall colors on the surrounding hillsides were out in almost full force and it was gorgeous. The evening was very pleasant with great weather, not too cold and not too hot, and as the darkness set in we moved inside for our reception. Darryl and Linda Conrad operate Conrad Ranch along with help from their daughters, one who does catering and another who does flowers and decorations, and additional help from other family members. We choose a small buffet for our wedding reception for sandwiches, salads, fresh fruit, and of course plenty of desserts! I'm pleased to report that everything was delicious and we were very happy with the catering services. The floral arrangements we paid for including my wife's boutique were also beautiful, especially her boutique. Again the Conrad's did a great job. One of the reasons we choose Conrad Ranch for our wedding is because we loved the outdoor setting. It was beautiful like I said. We also liked it because it was a little off the beaten path. Unlike some other venues and event centers Conrad Ranch only has some event at a time. It is private, personal and intimate -- tucked away in the Wasatch Mountains. It is worth mentioning that given the distance and the dark canyon some older people may be deterred from coming to your event. Some stayed away because of that but others carpooled and made it perfectly fine. It's not far away by any means but the canyon is dark at night and there is also wildlife, so be careful driving the canyon. When it came to price Conrad Ranch initially seemed like a terrific value, the price was almost half of what we had found at other venus in Utah County and they provided a lot more at no additional charge. However, when it came down to the nitty gritty details the charges started adding up. They charged $100 for us to have a photographer, $100 for the band, $100 for the photo booth, and other fees that just seemed extraneous. When it was all said and done I feel like we still got more for our money than if we had booked at one of the other veneus we looked at, but I wish Conrad Ranch had been a little more upfront about all the fees. They never provided any kind of price list specifying any of the additional fees that would be charged. So if you are interested in booking with Conrad Ranch just make sure to ask more questions then we did so you won't be surprised. Overall we had a wonderful experience at Conrad Ranch and they took great care of us and our guests. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and a better experience for our wedding. read more

See all

We have booked our event in February and have had a very difficult time getting Linda Conrad and her daughter to respond to emails and phone calls. A different reason is provided each time for not calling back.. Our event isn't until August but this feels like a very bad sign. I really hope they get this business together and provide the services they advertise. read more
