A Scenic, Secluded Venue Minutes from Wichita

One of the highlights of Boulder Creek Ranch is its ideal location. You truly get the best of both worlds: peaceful, serene views and the convenience of being a short drive from Wichita. The property is perfect for a secluded getaway that is close enough for guests to stay in Wichita. In 2025 and 2026, you will love that sought-after tucked-away feeling so many couples are looking for. Boulder Creek Ranch is just 30 minutes east of Wichita and 20 minutes from Andover.

Natural Kansas Beauty

This wedding venue blends luxurious accommodations with the beauty of the Kansas countryside. It’s an ideal space for couples who want an elegant celebration in a serene, natural setting. Boulder Creek Ranch sits on acres of rolling pastures that meet a crystal-clear lake. You can say “I do” with a gorgeous lake backdrop and take golden hour portraits by the water. With two venue options, this venue has space for up to 250 guests, making it perfect for anything from an intimate elopement to a large celebration. 

The Venue

There is also a cabin on site that can sleep up to five guests, so your wedding party can spend the day together before the wedding, and some guests have the option to stay on site. There is ample kitchen space to make prep easy for your catering company to serve something truly special. The space is optimized for wedding vendors and includes electrical hookups throughout the property for your sound system and DJ. Live music is also an option, even outdoors. In addition to the two buildings, there is space for an on-site outdoor wedding ceremony, as well as a large breezeway attached to the cabin that allows you to enjoy the outdoors even on inclement days.

Boulder Creek Ranch has two excellent venue options to choose from:

The Chateau in the Flint Hills

The Lakeshore Lodge

What makes Boulder Creek Ranch extra special is its balance of relaxation and celebration. You’re encouraged to enjoy the property fully—swim in the lake, lounge by the beach, or just take a moment to breathe it all in. Tables and chairs are provided for your outdoor setup, and the entire venue is yours for the day. It’s an invitation to slow down, celebrate big, and soak up every moment.

Bring Your Wichita Wedding to Life

Boulder Creek Ranch strikes a balance between rustic elegance and customization potential. With a clean, modern venue, open-air space for ceremonies, and a natural backdrop of trees, fields, and a lake, it works for tons of different wedding styles, like:

  • Boho with wildflowers and pampas grass
  • Classic romantic with flowing drapery and string lights
  • Country-chic with denim, boots, and sunflowers
  • Minimalist modern with clean lines and greenery

Because the space is fresh and versatile, you can bring in your favorite vendors and decor elements to make it totally you!

Budget-Friendly Venue Packages

Boulder Creek Ranch has the potential to fit many budgets, with starting prices ranging from $3,100 in the off-season and $4,100 during peak season. If you are looking for a budget-friendly venue near Wichita, here are a few extra ways you can save by choosing Boulder Creek Ranch:

  • Venue + Ceremony in One: By having everything in one place, you can avoid the extra cost of a second location.
  • BYO Vendors: From catering to florals, Boulder Creek Ranch offers vendor flexibility. This can be huge if you want to bring in a food truck, DIY bar setup, or have friends help with florals or desserts.
  • Natural Beauty = Less Decor: The land and views speak for themselves. A scenic outdoor ceremony means you don’t need to spend as much on backdrops or installations.
  • Spacious Layout: With room for both indoor and outdoor elements, you can create a wedding day flow that works for your timeline—and your budget.

If you love the idea of crafting parts of your wedding or getting hands-on with the details, Boulder Creek Ranch provides a beautiful, customizable base. Bring in your own signage, custom favors, or thrifted centerpieces. Set up lawn games or a s’mores bar under the stars. This is the kind of venue that says yes to your vision instead of boxing you into one style.
