your story
Elk Heart at Pine began as a place where our own family gathered — for weddings, milestones, and the kind of celebrations that stay with you long after the day ends. Over time, we realized this land had a way of bringing people together. The open pastures, the rugged bluffs, the sense of space — it all created a feeling of welcome that was too special not to share.
Our timber‑frame barn reflects the spirit of this land — simple, welcoming, and rooted in its history. It’s a warm, open space for gatherings of every kind, designed to feel ready for whatever you imagine. We don’t define weddings by a single style or theme, so the barn was created as a flexible, inviting backdrop that adapts to your vision. At Elk Heart at Pine, every couple deserves a celebration that feels like them.
Beyond the barn, the ceremony site opens to the natural beauty of southeastern Wyoming, offering a backdrop that needs little more than your love story to feel complete. Guests are seated on wooden benches with an expansive view of the bluffs and pasture, creating a warm, grounded setting that feels both timeless and deeply connected to this land.
At Elk Heart, hospitality is quiet, steady, and intentional. We focus on the small things — thoughtful preparation, a calm presence, and the confidence that nothing needs your attention. Our role is to give you space to slow down and celebrate in a way that feels true to you. We take care of the details quietly so your day feels effortless.
At the heart of the property is our timber‑frame barn, built with the kind of craftsmanship and character that only natural wood can bring. Its soaring ceilings, covered porches, and expansive views create a Wyoming wedding venue that feels both elevated and inviting.
The covered patio and oversized porch create an effortless flow from ceremony to celebration. With room for mingling, cocktails, and lawn games, this space invites guests to settle in and enjoy the view. It's the perfect transition space.
The reception space inside the barn is where the celebration truly comes alive. With timber beams, warm wood textures, and an open layout that flows naturally to the covered porches and patio, it’s a place designed for gathering. Warm, dimmable lighting fills the barn with a soft, romantic glow. Guests can dine, dance, and mingle in a setting that feels both spacious and inviting.
The getting ready suite is where your wedding day begins- climate- controlled, thoughtfully furnished, and designed with comfortable seating and well-placed mirrors so everyone has space to get ready together. It's a warm, relaxed room made for quiet moments, shared excitement, and the kind of memories that stay with you.
Our warming kitchen serves as a catering prep space, designed to support smooth, efficient service. The ample counter space, refrigeration, and commercial sink give your caterers everything they need to work comfortably.

Western hospitality is at the heart of who we are — warm, welcoming gatherings are simply a part of life here. Truth be told, we love a good celebration.

Kelly’s roots in both business and ranching bring an authentic warmth that puts guests at ease the moment they arrive.
Grateful for the privilege of living in such an extraordinary place, they felt called to share it with their community—offering a beautiful, genuine Wyoming setting to gather, celebrate, and create memories that last a lifetime.
They’re the heart behind Elk Heart at Pine — the spirit, warmth, and welcome that make this place truly special.
