The Western Experience for your wedding

Five interactive attractions, run by our own horse team, for the hours between the ceremony and dinner or for the whole reception.

Guests, and especially the kids, get to meet horses and try something they will talk about long after the last dance. Our handlers set up, supervise every guest who takes part and pack out, so your coordinator has nothing extra to manage. Add one attraction or all five; each is a line on your quote.

The kids table, solved

Guided horse rides and the petting zoo give younger guests something to look forward to while the adults take photos and find their seats. Every rider is hand-walked by a handler, and every animal interaction is supervised.

For the party crowd

The mechanical bull and learn-to-rope bring the reception to life, at a welcome party or on the night itself. Timed rodeo rounds for the adults, gentle rides for the younger guests, all inside an inflatable safety arena.
