Just wait until you hear some of the things they have in store for you lucky ladies!
As little girls, what did we do when we wanted to play dress-up, delve into a book or have an adventure? We escaped. We found our own little corners, quiet places, or our “castle” made out of blankets. It was our world in which we could do and be anything, and escape the “ordinary” and everyday environment.
Now you’re about to be a bride. You’re all grown up, but with no less of a yearning to create a unique adventure, in which you and your prince (aka fiancé) can “escape” your everyday surroundings and routine. Some of you will stay in the city; some of you will go off to some exotic island to get married. But, some of you want something more in between. You still seek the “escape” but with somewhat familiar surroundings, and something your friends and family can be a part of.

Rancho Mirando...A little piece of heaven on the Devil's Backbone.
Rancho Mirando is a 50 acre luxury guest ranch located in the beautiful Texas Hill Country just an hour from Austin and San Antonio, Texas.
