The Nest at Ruth Farms

The Nest at Ruth Farms is a wedding venue in Ponder, Texas, set across a private estate with ponds and landscaped outdoor areas. Couples can hold their ceremony in the dedicated chapel or choose an outdoor setting beside the pond, then continue their celebration in the white barn reception space. The venue is designed to bring the main parts of a wedding day together in one location, with spaces for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations.

The chapel accommodates ceremonies of up to 240 guests and includes natural light, room for musicians and ceremony décor, public facilities and a groom's suite. The barn is also suited to receptions of up to 240 guests, with high ceilings, a covered patio, a bar, a catering kitchen and a bridal suite. Couples can explore example reception floor plans to help consider different guest counts and layouts, while the venue's open-vendor policy lets them select suppliers that suit their plans.

The property also offers an outdoor ceremony option for couples who prefer a garden setting. Its grounds provide a picturesque backdrop for wedding photographs and time outdoors during the celebration. The venue publishes a planning guide with preferred local suppliers, nearby accommodation suggestions and rehearsal dinner ideas, giving couples useful starting points as they organise their day. Wedding packages and private tours are available by enquiry. Located within reach of the Dallas-Fort Worth area, The Nest at Ruth Farms welcomes couples to visit the chapel, barn and grounds before choosing the spaces for their wedding.
