Van Dickson Ranch 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Skull Valley, AZ
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $9,000

Van Dickson Ranch is a wedding venue located in Skull Valley, Arizona, 16 miles from Prescott, and 90 minutes north of Phoenix. It is a marvelous place for spring, summer, and fall nuptials with its wondrous oak and walnut trees. A natural arch formed by 100-year-old cottonwoods and a lush carpet of grass situated above Skull Valley Creek sets the scene for weddings. This beautiful area is known as Skull Valley because of the skulls found there in the late 1800s which are believed to be from ancient battles between the Yavapai and Apache people. James Van Dickson homesteaded this ranch in 1906. Van, as he was known, was a world-class rodeo champion who raised polo ponies at the ranch and leased them to Will Rogers.

We loved having our wedding at Van Dickson Ranch! The staff was fantastic - very responsive in all of our communications leading up to the big day and extremely helpful in making sure things ran smoothly. The ranch itself is gorgeous, with lush green fields and huge oak trees everywhere that made for beautiful backdrops. On the day-of, the team really went above and beyond. They helped set everything up perfectly and were there anytime we needed anything. From the ceremony under the giant oak to the reception in the barn, Van Dickson was the perfect rustic-chic venue for our dream wedding. We couldn't recommend them more highly to other couples looking for a venue that delivers beautiful scenery and amazing service!

My husband and I were delighted with The Art Center gallery as the venue for our wedding reception. The staff had an old-fashioned, straightforward communication style that we appreciated. They responded promptly to our inquiries and provided the key details we needed to plan the event. The venue itself was simply beautiful, with timeless glamour. The chandelier in the main hall added a charming, romantic ambience. For the price, The Art Center was a wonderful find for a DIY bride like myself. They provided essential items like tables, chairs, and kitchen access so that we could fully customize the space. I was able to realize my vision for elegant yet relaxed decor by using the graceful Art Center backdrop.
