About Gainey Ranch Golf Club

The award-winning Gainey Ranch features a 27-hole championship golf course, creating more than five miles of rich, green fairway frontage to set the backdrop for your Scottsdale wedding. The venue includes an outdoor ceremony on the lawn and a private reception in the clubhouse ballroom. From the moment guests arrive and are greeted by Gainey’s iconic fountain, they will feel the attention to detail and high level of service the venue offers.

The history behind the venue

Gainey Ranch was formerly an Arabian horse ranch owned by Daniel C. Gainey. In 1985, the ranch was transformed into the championship golf course it is today. The course is centrally located in Scottsdale, AZ, and surrounded by views of the Sonoran Mountains.
