Loveland: Mc C Ranch
Once a well kept secret, this ranch is now often booked every Saturday of the year for 'barn weddings'.  An affordable and flexible event center indeed!  You can bring your own caterer and alcohol, which few venues allow.  A "DIY Bride's" delight!
Our only caution is that you may want to have some extra helpers on hand. Pricier venues have to account for staff. If you reserve the Mc C Ranch, you may want an event coordinator by your side, and some helpful friends!
