Diamond Cross Ranch Wedding

We had been eagerly anticipating this day from the moment Gather Events Company, our favorite wedding design and planning team in Wyoming (or anywhere really), first reached out to us about our availability for this wedding. Although we shoot multiple events a year in Jackson Hole, this would be our first wedding at the famed Diamond Cross Ranch. Diamond Cross is one of few remaining historic ranches in Teton County, and it’s considered ‘Jackson Hole’s most iconic,’ for good reason too—the view is jaw dropping. Sprawling acres lead the eye to an unobstructed view of Mount Moran, one of many mountains in the Teton range, while a herd of majestic horses graze in the foreground.

Not wanting to compromise any aspect of their dream wedding, they didn’t want to risk it, and decided to postpone a second year. To them, the wait was worth it. In fact, the theme of their day became “can’t rush a good thing.” And their wedding in Fall 2022 was the best thing.
