The Ultimate Guide To Your 2025-26 Diamond Cross Ranch Wedding

Whenever I get the amazing opportunity to capture a Diamond Cross Ranch wedding, I take it. Bordered by the Grand Teton National Park and Bridger-Teton National Forest, Diamond Cross boasts unrivaled, unobstructed views of the snow-capped Grand Teton Mountains. Diamond Cross Ranch is one of Jackson Hole’s last historic, family-owned ranches and includes utmost privacy and natural beauty everywhere you look. Kylie + Austin’s September wedding meant some chilly, fall rain, so the wedding was brought inside the barn. Nevertheless, it was still beautiful. I’ll share photos from their day down below and answer some questions that I know you’ll find helpful about logistics at Diamond Cross Ranch. I hope this is helpful for you as you’re venue shopping. My availability for this year is super limited, and I’d love nothing more than to be your wedding photographer, so fill out this form and let’s chat about any questions that you have 🙂

- Couples are welcome to bring in their own vendors, however we do have a preferred vendor list that we strongly recommend, who are familiar with the ranch.
