About the Ranch
Destiny Ranch Events is a rustic barn wedding venue on a 38-acre working horse and cattle ranch in Bushnell — central Florida countryside shaded by Spanish moss–draped oaks, a unique and affordable setting for weddings and private events between Orlando and Tampa.
At the heart of the ranch stands the Legacy Barn, built in the early 1900s in Georgia to accommodate the army and later moved to Florida. It was restored to keep its old charm, and today it pairs that character with a state-of-the-art commercial kitchen and full audio & video equipment.
Outside, our sunset-facing outdoor ceremony site sits beneath the old Florida oak canopy, and picture-perfect locations are scattered across the property. Horses and cattle live and work on the ranch and make a memorable addition to your day. Couples visit us from across Sumter and Lake counties — The Villages, Eustis, Clermont, Dade City, Ocala, Orlando, and Tampa are all an easy drive.
Affordable, transparent wedding packages with an unparalleled level of service, so your day exceeds expectations and leaves memories to cherish for years to come. State and local taxes included.
