The Brothers Ranch

easy and seamless. The venue itself is beautiful. The carefully curated landscape provided an amazing backdrop to a perfect day. From the first look under the tall bamboo grove, to the ceremony on the lush green grass, to the dance floor inside the barn, we couldn't have asked for a better day. We highly recommend this venue for your special day!

charming, and the most stunning backdrop for our special day. What really stood out was how kind and accommodating Jessie & Jonathan were. They made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process and it truly felt like they wanted our day to be just as special as we did. We will always cherish the memories we made here! I couldn't recommend them enough!!!!

and meeting the owners, made the decision so clear and easy for us. Jessie and Jonathan are the sweetest most helpful people and such professionals. They have put so much love and care into their property, it is a place of wonder to take in. We were so honored to be able to share the space with all of our loved ones. Our wedding was everything we could have imagined and more. Planning a wedding is a huge undertaking and Jessie and Jonathan were very attentive and supportive to any questions we had. Our day was perfect. Thank you both!

l area too, we could’ve not brought any decorations and it would still be so beautiful. All of our family and friends were in awe of the area and we had the best time! Thank you for having us❤️

s, gorgeous reception area, perfect bridal suite....everything was beyond wonderful. Jessie and Jonathan Brothers are exceptional humans with great communication, professionalism, and readiness to help. Our wedding day will forever feel like a perfect dream thanks to Brothers Ranch. I cannot recommend this venue enough!!!!!

bamboo and tropical tropical florals/plants, making you feel like you’re somewhere in the tropics. We held our ceremony in the garden and had our reception in a modernized indoor/outdoor area that was alongside the garden area. There’s a beautiful encircled area in the bamboo garden where couples do first looks. Very intimate. The venue was spacious enough to occupy all of our guests and had room to spread out all events between ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and reception. The beauty of the venue speaks for itself so ideally you don’t need much decoration. Flexibility: We booked the venue for the entire weekend Friday- Sunday, which was very helpful as we didn’t feel rushed getting items to and from venue before and even after the wedding. We were able to set up and drop off most items on Friday and had time for rehearsal & had the luxury of picking everything up on Sunday so we weren’t rushed the night of our wedding. Most venues have required vendors however here at brothers ranch we were provided a list of preferred vendors however had the option of selecting our own vendors, with owners review. Owners: being able to work with the owners directly really sold us. Both Jonathan and Jessie are so kind, humble, and truly great individuals. From the very beginning, they both were very attentive to all questions, tours, and assistance as much as possible. I really respected how they wanted to ideally assist and make things as smooth as possible so truly all you have to do is enjoy your wedding day (allowing Friday and Sunday to prep and clean up). All in all we highly recommend both The Brothers Ranch as a venue for any event (especially weddings) and working with Jonathan and Jessie. You will not be disappointed as both the venue and couple truly made our wedding dreams come to life ✨

ners, Jessie and Jonathan, have put so much work and dedication into The Ranch in order to create a beautiful space for any type of event. You can tell they care and take pride in their venue. In addition, they are an absolute pleasure to work with and made our day so special! We cannot wait to visit again and reminisce!

peaceful, romantic, and well-maintained, and the reception space provides a wonderful indoor-outdoor vibe with plenty of space to accommodate large events. The owners, Jon and Jess, were quick to communicate and happy to help in any way they could.

y thought out to accommodate the wedding party, guests, and vendors perfectly. The tropical foliage of the ceremony lawn offered a stunning backdrop for our vows (plus the sweet scent that wafts from nearby strawberry fields). The reception area was the perfect size and layout for our guests to eat, drink, play games, and dance throughout the night - cozy but spacious at the same time. Brothers Ranch was so beautiful and so well designed that we really didn’t need many of our own decorations. Also a huge plus for us was having access to the space for the entire weekend (Friday-Sunday) so we had plenty of time for setup and we didn’t have to worry about cleanup at the end of our wedding night! But the true heart of this venue is Jessie and Jonathan Brothers. More gracious hosts than venue owners, they helped us every step of the way to have an amazing and stress-free wedding. They both went above and beyond running around the whole weekend handling all of the little details to provide a seamless experience for us and our guests, from giving golf cart rides between the reception and ceremony spaces to rolling out heaters after sundown. So a big thank you to Jessie and Jonathan and definitely book Brother Ranch - the best venue in all of Monterey Bay for an amazing, beautiful, stress-free, and super fun wedding!

on the day of the wedding. I recommend Brother Ranch to all newly engaged couples who are looking for beautiful venue!

lot of work into it. We heard nothing but positive feedback from our guests who couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the site was. The goats were an absolute hit with both kids and adults, the bar was gorgeous and well decorated, and the getting ready room was perfect for both parties and taking pictures. We would highly recommend Brothers Ranch for any event!

hey have so much pride of ownership, they love what they do and it shines through them and into the property and therefore, your wedding. They were a pleasure to work with, sincerely. Not only that, but they are both so kind and just genuinely good people. The plants on the property are stunning, and we had both butterflies and dragonflies flying around us during the ceremony (seriously to the point where our guests thought we had hired a vendor to release them. "Like something out of a fairytale" ) We will always love The Brothers Ranch and have so much gratitude for the memories it holds. Look no further, this is by far the very best choice you could make for your wedding day!

scaping. From the modern barn with HUGE marble countertop bar, in-house ice machine (this really makes a difference!), beautiful chandelier lighting, to lush hilltop ceremony site where you can catch the views (and scents) of the neighboring strawberry fields, we knew we made the right decision to go with Brothers Ranch. Jessie and Jonathan were extremely helpful and flexible with our many venue visits and questions throughout the process. The bonus was also getting access to the space Friday, Saturday, and Sunday so we never felt a time crunch amongst the endless list of things that come up wedding weekend. Nothing but high remarks for this gem of a venue.

"down-to-earth" and modern all wrapped into one. The uploaded photos do not give it the justice it needs until you actually see them in person. The gardens are immaculate. I can't think of a place any more serene than the garden in the ceremony area. Thinking of all the colors of the plants there combined with the bamboo and the butterflies and birds still leaves me at a loss for words. I honestly could not grasp exactly how the ceremony area looked more and more beautiful at each visit preceding our wedding this past Saturday. The barn is absolutely amazing! It's separated into three sections (bar, dance floor and lounge) giving guests the room to bounce around depending how they feel throughout the evening. High ceilings, amazing light fixtures, the disco ball, the glass doors reminiscent of a greenhouse gives it the perfect contemporary touch! Here's the most important part, Jonathan & Jessie Brothers. They were so accommodating, helpful, patient and overall a total joy to work with during the wedding planning process. You cannot get service any better than a couple who genuinely loves putting these kinds of events together. I could talk for hours but do yourself the favor and check it out yourselves. I had the wedding of my dreams here and I wouldn't change any bit or piece of it. The walls, the flora, the aura of this place truly come alive when it's all said and done. Take the advice of an extremely happy bride, don't miss out on the opportunity to call this place the start of your happily ever after.

The reception space is beautiful and modern looking with beautiful lighting and an abundance of plants that make the area feel so warm and inviting. During the event and well after, our guests were gushing over how unique and picturesque our venue was! Our absolutely favorite part of the venue was working with Jonathan and Jessie! They are so down to earth, sweet and incredibly accommodating and felt like instant friends. If you are on the fence on hiring the Wedding Crashers, DO IT! They were a huge hit with our guests and now my husband and I are plotting ways to get some goats of our own! 10/10 Recommend having your wedding at The Brothers Ranch! You will have incredible pictures and beautiful memories that will last a lifetime!

ith The Brothers Ranch. What started as a hidden gem has quickly become our field of dreams! Jonathan and Jess are absolutely amazing. The venue is a must-see! With around 250 guests at our wedding, everyone described it as "Paradise." Jonathan and Jess supported us every step of the way—offering planning advice, recommendations, and crucial support. Despite not having a wedding coordinator, The Brothers Ranch made us feel like family on our big day. Do yourself a favor and give these wonderful people a chance—you'll witness magic unfold right before your eyes.

er again with this venue and team! From the first convo, Jessie and Jonathan Brothers made it clear they were there to support us in anyway they could. They were flexible, polite and really went above and beyond thru the entire process. The venue is gorgeous and speaks for itself. The vendor list was extremely helpful. And it is such a nice feeling to tell other vendors that you’re getting married here and their first response is “oh I love them!” that was the response we had every single time. I am so happy we were able to start our marriage here and we have new friends from it all!

d things about the ease of communication and flexibility. Will definitely go back for other parties and functions!

. Their responsiveness and flexibility were truly commendable; they made the entire process seamless and stress-free. The inclusion of a commercial ice maker, plenty of parking space, and stunning bridal room were some of the many reasons we fell in love with the venue! On our special day, they went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, leaving us with nothing but beautiful memories and a flawless celebration. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to bring our dream wedding to life!

g beautiful. Speaks for itself. 2. The owners are friendly. No dealing with a corporate organization who sees you as a wedding on a conveyer belt. The Brothers' felt like friends by the end. They are so sweet! 3. The perks. Being able to have access to the venue for the entire weekend made a HUGE difference because we did so many DIYs. Also, the chairs they provided were beautiful, the ice-maker worked great, and the other things they provided made our rental list a little shorter. Booking a venue is a huge and daunting task. I am SO grateful that we found Brothers Ranch because they really were the best. We are thankful and honored to have this venue as a piece of our love story.

s on it. The bridal suite, grooms’ hangout space, the bamboo grove, and barn all add to the ambience that makes this place so special. The crown gem is the ceremony space decorated with a variety of beautiful tropical plants and other greenery. Jonathan and Jessie Brothers have truly poured their hearts into this venue and it is apparent the second you set foot on the property. More than that, they were extremely easy to work with; fast and clear communication, no hidden fees, flexible with individual design preferences, and on-site the day of the wedding to ensure everything moved along smoothly. If you’re having any doubts, go see it for yourself - you certainly will not regret it. Jonathan and Jessie, we can’t thank you enough for everything you did to make our day so special. Cheers! -Sean & Nina Murphy

nds the ceremony and reception, to thoughtful and elegant touches in the decor. We knew instantly this was the place and the people we wanted to work with to celebrate one of the biggest moments of our life and we are incredibly happy with the outcome. We can’t wait to see how they continue to make the space even better and wish all the families who choose this venue a wonderful time. Thanks again for everything, Brothers Ranch!

got to use the space for the entire weekend, early Friday morning to Sunday. We were able to set everything up early and even have our rehearsal dinner at the venue. Jonathan and Jessie are such kind people and you can feel their genuine excitement for you throughout the entire experience. One of my favorite things about this venue is how flexible the owners are. It really allowed for you and your partner to be so creative with the space and make it unique to you. The other great parts about this venue include: the amazing bridal suite, private bamboo area (where we did our first look and vows), large dance floor, great lounge area adjacent to dance floor, great bar set up, ample space and parking throughout the venue. They are always looking to continue improving so I can't wait to see what else they add to the venue as they continue to grow! I can't recommend this venue enough!

lways goes above and beyond to ensure that my clients are happy with their experience and have everything they need on the day of. They are so organized and really make the planning process fun. They are always available to answer questions and really care about all of the details that make the wedding day seamless and special. As a planner, I can say that The Brothers Ranch is really on top of the timeline, movement of specific items such as heaters (without me following up), available for anything I need and really makes my job so so easy. I cannot recommend them enough to other planners searching on behalf of their clients or to people looking to get married at a lovely outdoor/indoor venue. RUN don't walk! They are one of the best!

hen I was looking for a venue for my wedding, this was the first that caught my eye. I made myself look at other places, but in the end, there was no comparison. I went with my gut, and first choice, and could not have been more pleased with my decision. As someone who worked for many years in the Redwoods and went to many Redwood weddings, I wanted something different while still being close to Santa Cruz. Jon and Jessie Brothers have cultivated a gorgeous location. It was really important to me to have a ceremony space and reception/bar area that were close to each other. The reception/ bar area has beautiful, indoor plants and is also nestled in unique bamboo gardens. It is SO beautiful you truly do not need to worry about adding extra decorative items. I had a florist add flowers to our tables and that was pretty much it. The Brothers have made this place for events, so everything is placed in a way that makes sense. The bridal suite is gorgeous, there’s a kitchen that my caterers were super jazzed about and a bar area that any bartender would feel super comfortable working in. There’s an area above the dance floor that was recently added that has couches and cool lighting, so at your event there are always different spaces for people to hang out. The ceremony space is up above and surrounded by an array of tropical plants, there are so many different pockets to get amazing pictures. The Brothers are the perfect mix of kind, flexible and professional. The last few years they have been building up the site to make it even better, so throughout this year of planning they kept me up to date on what was changing and how the gardens were doing. They were open to all my random questions and truly made the day go so smoothly. All of my vendors were extremely happy with each area they had to work in, like I mentioned, it makes a big difference having a place that was specifically created for events. I am not a country club type person but I am also very particular about aesthetics. The Brothers Ranch is gorgeous without being stuffy and the perfect mixture of chill and chic. I cannot recommend this place enough, and it’s only going to get more and more popular so if you can book it for your wedding or other event JUMP ON IT!

of beautiful flowers, bamboo and other foliage surrounding the entire property. Our group had an amazing time, with beautiful weather, and a great facility for dancing, dining and socializing, and our hosts, Jessie and Jonathan, made our day special with attention to every last detail. We would gladly plan another event there in a heartbeat, and we look forward to working with Jessie and Jonathan in the future. John and Monica Green, Gilroy, CA

got married on July 8th and the blooms were incredible. So many guest complimented the space. We are so thankful we found a venue that allows for your own vendors and a DIY approach as many venues in this area do not. Thank you guys for everything!! Highly recommend.

weekend - Friday afternoon until Sunday morning. This allowed us to hold rehearsal and set up for our wedding a day prior to the day, and clean any remaining items the next day. We loved this. When you walk around the ranch you are surrounded by bamboo groves and tropical plants/flowers. They have two ceremony sites that have no problem in accommodating guest counts of over 100+. If you are using the lower site, you can get a nice overlook view from the top ceremony site which offered another nice camera angle. The reception site is located in a separate area within steps away from the ceremony site. We loved the intimacy of both the ceremony and reception site as we were able to always be surrounded by our loved ones. The reception site was amazing as it had indoor and outdoor options. We used the outdoor space for dinner [13 guest tables, one sweetheart table, buffet line, and our caterer's bbq grill] and the indoor space for the photobooth, dancing, and bar. It was incredibly spacious which allowed our guests to freely move around. The Brothers Ranch also set up propane heaters around the dinner area to help keep our guests warm at night. As mentioned, the bar area was inside as the ranch venue has their own bar counter and commercial ice maker! This helped our bartenders so much! The owners are incredibly kind, easy to talk to, and always made sure our day would be as special as we hoped. We couldn't have wished for better people to work with. If you're looking for an intimate, modern, and laid back venue surrounded by beautiful plants, we cannot recommend The Brothers Ranch enough! Also, they're pet friendly :) We were so happy we were able to include our sweet boy for our ceremony.

nytime we needed information and were so flexible with our wedding day vision. They made everything look amazing for us and we couldn't have been happier with the space. Just some of the things we really loved were: the large amount of parking, great bar set up, big dance floor, tables and chairs to use, and a beautiful bridal suite! Can't recommend it enough.

ird the day Brother’s Ranch advertised their venue. They were quick to respond, invited us over for a walkthrough, and were some of the nicest people you could ever meet. Jess was super helpful in the process and was quick to respond to any questions I had. After losing our first venue, I was really worried about losing another. John and Jess made the process so smooth and made me feel extremely comfortable. I was in great hands from the start with them. The day of our wedding was a dream. We received so many compliments about how beautiful our venue was and how epic the bar was. We are a week out and people are still talking about it. Brides, grooms, or parents of, if you’re looking for a beautiful place to have your wedding, look no further than The Brother’s Ranch! You will not regret it!

t all our wedding visions to life and gave us memories that we will cherish forever. Jonathan and Jessie were practically like family to us by the end of it all! They were super patient with all our questions during the planning process and always answered them in a timely fashion. They worked with our vision and were very open to our ideas in allowing us to bring them to life. They provided great recommendations on catering and other vendors. They are so sweet, down to earth & personable! As far as the venue goes- it has SO much to offer!!! Make your dreams come to life with their ceremony area surrounded by gorgeous greenery & flowers, then head down through the bamboo forest to the serene reception area! Every bit of the venue is like a little piece of paradise. Our guests could not stop talking about how amazing and gorgeous the venue truly is. The bar area is one of the most beautiful & welcoming ones I’ve ever been to at a wedding! The dance floor is perfect, and the beautiful window roll up doors make for a great addition if it gets too cold outside. My husband and I were one of the first weddings the ranch had, and couldn’t have asked for more! We are thrilled to see what Jonathan and Jessie will do with the place later down the road, and cannot recommend them enough to host your wedding at their gorgeous venue. Hell, if we ever need a place for a big event/reception/reunion in the future, we’d be more than happy to have it here!!

ision we ever made. Jonathon and Jessie went above and beyond to make sure that our day was perfect. They were so flexible and helpful and I can’t imagine having a wedding anywhere else. The venue was gorgeous and the pictures that I have seen are absolutely beautiful. I will be replaying the day in my head for the next 20 years and guests have been raving about the location all week!
