We held our festival-themed wedding at Lucky Arrow Retreat in November 2023, and it was nothing short of magical. From Thursday to Sunday, we hosted a multi-day celebration with our ceremony on Saturday and a weekend packed with fun, connection, and unforgettable memories. We booked out every cabin on the property, and the incredible Rachel and Serena were instrumental in ensuring our guests had the appropriate accommodations. The newly added welcome center made check-in seamless, setting the tone for a stress-free weekend. The staff were incredibly welcoming, flexible, and accommodating to our vision, allowing us to bring in our chosen vendors and making sure every detail was covered. Hosting guests for three days might sound daunting, but the Lucky Arrow staff made it feel effortless. We were granted immense flexibility in how we utilized the property, even hosting a silent disco on the restaurant lawn on Friday night complete with a full lighting kit and three DJs! From pools, firepits, and hot tubs to the event center, rooftop, and beer garden, every amenity added to the charm and fun of the weekend. The nearby wineries, breweries, pickleball, and mini-golf made it an ideal location for all ages, with plenty to explore. Weather in November can be unpredictable, but Rachel and Serena were quick to recommend tenting vendors and ensure we had transport options with golf carts. Their support made the experience stress-free despite the touch-and-go conditions. One of the most unique aspects of Lucky Arrow is the ability to host nearly all your guests on-site. Having over 90% of our attendees within the glamping compound was a game-changer, fostering an intimate and connected atmosphere. The kids had an absolute blast exploring the property, while adults enjoyed the wine tastings and nearby Abby Jane Bakeshop for incredible breakfast and cakes. (Seriously, their cakes are a must for any celebration!) The staff went above and beyond, even providing additional security to ensure our late-night celebrations remained safe and enjoyable. Load-in and load-out were simple and efficient, and despite needing to vacate the property by Sunday morning, we never felt rushed. Planning an ambitious DIY festival wedding was no small feat, but Lucky Arrow provided the perfect canvas. Their team was responsive and accommodating, and we found that proactive communication was key to ensuring everything went smoothly. If you’re considering hosting a wedding or event here, be prepared to collaborate closely with their team—they will go the extra mile to make your vision come to life. While our wedding was before the restaurant and Airstream housing were operational, we can only imagine how much more incredible the experience must be now. Lucky Arrow Retreat is truly a one-of-a-kind venue that we wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking to host a wedding or special event. It was everything we dreamed of and more. Thank you, Lucky Arrow, for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime!

Legacy at Wrenwood Ranch 

5.0

Johnson City, TX
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,495

At Wrenwood Ranch, we didn’t just build a venue — we designed a modern industrial farmhouse that’s a blank slate for your vision. Most venues force you into their style and rush you out after 5 hours. We flipped that model. Here, you get a space that molds to you—whether bold, timeless, or something no one’s seen before—plus the freedom of time and onsite lodging. With 7 private cottages that sleep 18 adults, your family and friends stay steps away from the party. That means no shuttle chaos, no stress, no 6 a.m. checkouts. Instead, you get the full weekend: arrive the night before, relax, wake up on the ranch, and savor coffee with loved ones the morning after. It’s not just a wedding day; it’s a stress-free, all-in-one experience that feels effortless. Bottom line: at Wrenwood Ranch you don’t just rent a building—you secure a weekend that delivers 10x the value for half the cost of other Hill Country venues.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Offers convenient lodging options
  • Dressing room available
  • Rustic yet refined style

The venue itself was absolutely beautiful and exceptionally clean, providing the perfect backdrop for our special day. The team went above and beyond to ensure our communication was seamless and that every detail was thoughtfully executed.

Inspiring Oaks was everything we were hoping it would be and more. Easily the most beautiful and scenic venue we saw in all of our searching. The property is huge - the main house, ceremony site, reception area, and everything in-between made for so many amazing pictures and memories. Being able to stay at the venue for the weekend was great in so many ways - it was so nice not having to worry about forgetting anything on the big day, it was great having a big space to hang out with close friends and family all weekend, and it was so packed with fun amenities that there was never a dull moment during our stay. Even with all of the features we loved about the property, one of the highlights of picking this venue was having Greg as our venue host. In every interaction with him he would go above and beyond to make sure that we had all of our questions answered, had all the tours we needed to feel comfortable about the big day, and put in the extra effort on our wedding weekend to make sure we (and our guests) could focus more on enjoying the weekend rather than venue logistics. He was a big part in making the experience as memorable as it was. I highly recommend this venue to anyone who enjoys hill-country backdrops, the background of every photo will look so amazing. I also recommend it if you're looking to make the most out of your wedding - instead of the normal experience of renting a venue for half a day, this will let you stretch out your wedding experience to a whole weekend with your closest friends and family.

I could not say enough great things about the Hideout and their staff. The venue was absolutely stunning in November with the changing colors of the trees. The rooms were clean and cozy, we had run of the whole venue and it created the most magical weekend for our family and friends. The only downside to the whole weekend we experienced was the planner you are required to use. On top of being very hard to contact and when you did chat she was often rude or short, and made it seem like she was often annoyed by questions I had. We had our wedding planned for a year and a half but thursday before we were supposed to have a rehearsal on Friday of she told me she just couldn’t get anyone “out to the middle of no where” on a Friday night for our rehearsal so I was very disappointed in that. Although she is the owner of the company so she was not the day of planner we got and the ladies who came from her company day of were absolutely wonderful. Dealing with Johnell with Clearly Classy events just added stress where it was not needed, but her staff and the staff at Hideout were so helpful when I did have these struggles.

Wow just wow. I wish this place was around when I got married! Still Waters is one of THE most special places I've ever known. The location is perfectly accessible to town with a nice peaceful drive, but definitely far enough away to really feel like you're getting away. The animal sounds (and sightings!), the birds, alllllllll the gazillion trees.... so SO beautiful! And honestly, I love that it's "country" but the homes/cabins are not roughin' it at all haha I won't lie. The granite countertops, walk-in showers, creative decorations and home designs - seriously it should be in a magazine. HIGHLY recommend for a getaway with your love or rent out the ENTIRE property for your favorite group of people I've done both and it's been fantastic every single time. The pond is my favorite and that gazebo on it makes for the perfect place to exchange vows. GRAB IT IF THEY ACTUALLY HAVE AN OPENING!

From the moment we started planning our wedding, The Reserve on Cypress Creek was great to work with. Their communication was always detailed and responsive, and they made it easy to schedule tours and get our questions answered. The natural beauty of their venue was simply stunning - the lush greenery and serene creek provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, even finding a small round table for our wedding cake and providing the option to cool our reception tent with A/C as a last minute addition. We also loved the custom photobooth logo they created with our names. The Reserve's "dream team" vendor package for DJ, bartender, and security was a huge help, and we were very happy with the bartender and security services we used. I can’t vouch for the DJ as we just had a family friend manage a playlist and speaker/mic (sound level meter in the tent was great!!). Overall, The Reserve on Cypress Creek exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding. Guests are raving about how beautiful the venue was.

We recently got married and Lucky Spur and loved our experience! Sharie, Dakon and team made everything so easy for us. We did the weekend stay, which was important to us as most of our guests were traveling from out of state. It was so fun to have the ranch to ourselves all weekend and there was plenty to do on site. The accommodations were great and everyone had a comfortable place to stay and plenty of towels and other necessities. It was super easy to access our portal and payment plans and easy to add on the beer burros (HUGE hit) and Lonesome Spur catering (also a HUGE hit!). We loved the open houses and used them as opportunities to meet recommended vendors and try the food and was thoroughly impressed with all our vendors and the full catering menu for the weekend. I can’t say enough good things about this venue!

Texas Rock House is a labor of love. My grandparents built the house and barns in the 1940's as a working farm for their family. My mother was the youngest of seven children that grew up here. I grew up almost across the street with my mom (Joyce), daddy (Buddy), and brother (Larry). Larry and I spent almost every Friday night here - listening to his records on Grandma's old record player or sitting on the back porch swing counting the number of cars on the trains as they passed by. Whether you are looking for a memorable barn wedding venue for your special day, a unique event space for your corporate meeting, or a beautiful place to celebrate one of life's special moments, the Texas Rock House is the place to be! I (and my family) have had many wonderful memories in this place - and hope you do too!

Texas Rock House was the ideal setting for our wedding and truly made our day special. I cannot recommend this venue highly enough!

About wedding venues in Texas

Why Is Texas an Exceptional Wedding Destination?

Texas offers an incredible variety of wedding settings across its diverse landscapes. You'll find everything from romantic Hill Country vineyards to stunning Gulf Coast waterfronts that provide perfect backdrops for your special day. The state is home to countless venues that showcase authentic Texas character while still matching your personal style. Think rustic barns where longhorn cattle graze nearby or sophisticated urban venues with dramatic city skyline views that'll impress your guests. Many Texas venues incorporate unique regional touches you won't find elsewhere; live country music that gets everyone dancing, mouthwatering BBQ stations and custom boot favors that celebrate local heritage. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, you'll find Texas venues ready to accommodate your vision.

What's the Average Cost of Wedding Venues in Texas?

Wedding venues in Texas typically cost between $3,000 and $30,000+ depending on what you're looking for. The national average runs about $6,500-$12,000 which represents roughly 25% of your total wedding budget. Your overall wedding costs will depend largely on how many people you're inviting to share your special day:

Guest CountAverage Total Wedding Budget
50 guests$19,410
100 guests$32,365
150 guests$44,545
200 guests$55,433
250 guests$66,322
300 guests$77,211
In Texas specifically, venues typically account for about 16% of your total wedding budget with couples spending an average of $6,932. This gives you plenty of room in your budget to customize other elements of your celebration that matter most to you and your partner.

Which Wedding Venue Types Are Most Popular in Texas?

Texas venues offer distinctly regional experiences that capture the state's diverse character. Hill Country locations around Fredericksburg give you gorgeous vineyard settings with beautiful limestone architecture and sunset views that will take your breath away. If you're considering Houston, you'll find venues that thoughtfully incorporate bayou landscapes alongside sophisticated cosmopolitan amenities. Dallas spaces tend to showcase luxury urban environments with elegant design elements that create a refined atmosphere. Fort Worth venues perfectly blend Western heritage with modern conveniences for a uniquely Texan experience. November emerges as the most popular month for venue inquiries across the state, so you might want to plan accordingly if you're interested in this popular time frame.

How Far in Advance Should You Book Your Texas Venue?

Texas couples typically book their wedding venues about 16 months (or 457 days) before their wedding date. November stands out as the most popular month for venue inquiries so planning early is essential if you're considering this timeframe. This advanced booking timeline helps you secure your preferred date since popular venues often fill their calendars far in advance especially for prime weekend dates. Booking early also allows you to lock in current pricing before annual increases that many venues implement. Plus you'll have more time to work with venue coordinators to customize floor plans and discuss details that will make your celebration uniquely yours.

Where Can You Find Accessible Wedding Venues in Texas?

Madera Estates in Conroe stands out for its commitment to accessibility with fully paved event spaces that accommodate wheelchair navigation throughout the property. You can host up to 330 guests here and the venue is frequently praised for physically walking through accessibility needs during the planning process. You'll also find excellent accessible options at Jennings Trace near Houston which offers single-level celebration spaces. Hummingbird Hill Weddings in Chappell Hill prioritizes inclusive design throughout their venue and The Preserve at Canyon Lake features wheelchair-friendly pathways connecting all major celebration areas. These venues ensure all your guests can fully participate in your special day regardless of mobility considerations.

Which Texas Wedding Venues Offer Outstanding Culinary Experiences?

The Bell Tower on 34th in Houston delivers exceptional dining experiences under Executive Chef Sergio Arellano. His international culinary team creates gourmet meals on-site that will impress even your most food-savvy guests. Food-focused couples should also consider Steiner Ranch Steakhouse in Austin where you'll enjoy spectacular views alongside premium cuts of Texas beef. Cisco's Salsa Company near Tomball has built a reputation for their award-winning Mexican cuisine that adds authentic flavors to your celebration. Avenida Brazil Churrascaria Steakhouse in the Houston area offers a unique Brazilian steakhouse experience with tableside carving and a festival atmosphere your guests will remember long after the wedding day.

How Can Texas Venues Support Remote Wedding Participation?

For couples wanting to include loved ones who can't attend in person, several Texas venues now offer more than just basic streaming services. Venues like Agave Estates Mara Villa and The Middleton Venue in Katy specialize in creating interactive remote experiences that make distant guests feel truly present. You can work with these venues to design custom interactive elements that go beyond passive viewing. Think virtual guest books where remote attendees can leave video messages remote toasts synchronized with in-person celebrations and even coordinated dance moments. These thoughtful touches ensure everyone feels included in your celebration regardless of where they're located.

What Wedding Expenses Should You Budget for in Texas?

Beyond your venue there are several other key expenses to consider when planning a Texas wedding. For a typical 150-guest celebration your budget will likely break down this way:
