A unique and beautiful ranch that is nothing short of amazing! From the moment my wife and I drove through the gate we were in awe. We were greeted by multiple unique species of wildlife and a serene landscape with spectacular views. Ty and Leslie have built an amazing ranch and experience in central Texas and the hospitality is truly the best part! From the lodge, the cottage, and wildlife sanctuaries no detail was missed or expense spared. Viewing and feeding all of the animals was an amazing experience that we will never forget. We could not recommend Artemis Ranch enough. Whether it is for a family getaway in the cottage or a wedding/corporate event in the lodge, this is hands down the place for you. We will definitely be back!

I got married at the Milestone in February. It was an absolutely wonderful experience! The venue itself is stunning!! The hill country is so green and gorgeous for photos. They have a little bridge over a pond that is adorable and the inside of the venue is so warm and inviting with a beautiful staircase. When you book with the Milestone you get a wedding planner as part of the package. Taylor was my wedding planner and she was AMAZING!! Not only was she so available for questions and helping me figure things out, she had lots of really helpful suggestions I wouldn’t have even thought about. Also she sent me a ton of really cute pictures/videos she had taken of me and my husband behind the scenes at our wedding. The wedding went so smoothly and the venue has the process down perfectly. I didn’t have to deal with anything going wrong on the day of. It was cold and drizzling on the day of the wedding and they were able to pivot so efficiently to move the ceremony inside and it still looked beautiful (plus we still took pictures outside)! The only thing you should be aware of is the venue adds a 20% fee to everything they charge you for. They’re upfront about it but it’s just something to factor into your budget when planning. I definitely recommend the Milestone!!

Let me first say this venue is absolutely stunning! My fiance' and I were looking for a place that needed minimal decor and we stunted across Ashton Gardens will looking through The Knot. The chapel is gorgeous and the windows really do set the tone for an elegant wedding! The reception hall which is just a few steps away is equally beautiful, not needing really anything at all to enhance the look. My wedding planner is Sheila and she has been fabulous along the way. With the being my FIRST and ONLY marriage, I have so many questions and believe me I had emailed Sheila probably more than I text my fiance, but she is super sweet and has answered every question I had without any hesitation. The service is amazing and I really could have not prayed for a better venue; mind you I looked at 30 locations across the Texas area.

What a gorgeous venue. We got so many compliments on the venue, not that we had anything to do with the design of the venue but all of our guests were in such awe. They supply, table, chairs, linens, plates, glassware, utensils, charger plates, and probably more but that’s all I can remember. They also offer several bar packages. The bartenders were amazing and had many compliments on the drinks they prepared. Rachel, the venue coordinator was a big help before the wedding and during. The only negative thing I would say is we weren’t able to have a rehearsal the day before due to another event and although they gave us that hour to tack on for the wedding day, they make you use it for early access to the building, you can’t use it to stay an hour later. Even with that downside I would still book with them again. It’s just such a great venue with beautiful views of the Denton.

We got married in April here and it was amazing! The venue is beautiful and there is a lot of space. My planner, Madison, was very helpful during the process and would answer any questions I had. Our coordinators Janeen and Jackie were awesome! They helped make the day flow perfectly and if we needed anything they were on top of it! The DJ was great as well and was included in the package. The only compliant I have was that they ran out of food even though less people showed up then in our final guest count. We got the steak option and it was delicious but the portions they gave out were small and they somehow still ran out...

We had our wedding at AvantGarden in October of 2025. After touring quite a few options in Houston, we knew that Mariana and her team were the ones we wanted to help us plan our big day. Mariana was very communicative throughout the entire process and has weddings down to an art. She has an endless list of local connections and trust us when we say to listen to her on the food and cake because people have not stopped raving about both months later. We had use of the entire venue from top to bottom and while we designed our own centerpieces, the team set everything up exactly as we had envisioned, incorporating the perfect floral shades and designs to give our wedding a classy gothic feel rather than turning it into a Halloween party that happens to have a wedding. We opted for mocktails and non-alcoholic drinks and they were a big hit with us and our guests. The food truck on site was amazing as was the cake Mariana helped us order. The entire night went so smoothly and we didn’t have to worry about a single item and got to really enjoy our wedding and time with our guests. There aren’t enough words to express just how wonderful everything was and we cannot imagine how our day might have gone had we chosen any other venue. Truly a perfect experience.

We really do appreciate everything Kaleigh C. did for us! She made this process SOOOO much easier for us. She asked the number 1 thing we wanted for this wedding and we said “NO STRESS”. She seriously made that happen! I'm the planner of the family and I don't remember ever being able to just go to an event and enjoy it. I truly got to enjoy the best day of my life and I have Kaleigh to thank for that! If you’re looking for a venue to host a smaller wedding under 100 people, then this is the PERFECT venue for you! We even jumped into the pool at the end of our bubble exit! It was a magical night!

We had a traditional Nigerian ceremony and our vow exchange on the same day…essentially 2 ceremonies which involved many moving parts and a busy day of schedule. It was absolutely the best day, the entire staff was very helpful and tended to every single detail. The meetings leading up to the wedding were very thorough which made it very easy to enjoy our wedding without any hassle. The wedding package made planning so easy, the venue was beautiful, and most importantly we had the most amazing time! Thank you so much Melissa for pulling everything together and Mariah for handling all the day off matters!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience with Spinelli’s. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, every corner is so thoughtfully designed, and it provided the perfect backdrop for both our ceremony and reception. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful everything was, from the lush surroundings to the elegant setup and cozy atmosphere. What truly made our experience unforgettable, though, was the incredible team behind the venue. The staff were kind, professional, especially Pedro, and so accommodating throughout the entire process. Communication was always easy and clear, any questions we had were answered right away, and they went above and beyond to make sure every detail came together seamlessly. You can tell they truly care about their couples and take pride in what they do. On the day of our event, everything ran perfectly. The staff made sure the space looked beautiful, coordinated smoothly with our vendors, and helped create such a welcoming environment for our family and friends. We felt so taken care of and stress-free, which allowed us to really enjoy every moment. We also loved how well the venue photographed, every picture turned out amazing, and we’ll cherish those memories forever. It truly captured the magic of our day.

Do not make a decision on venue till you see this one and once you see it - BOOK IT! They fill up quick, but thankfully, they had a date in February that Alexis thought could be available and we took it! I am writing this review 4 days after my daughters wedding. Our kids are in the age range that are getting married. We have been in many wedding venues in Montgomery County. Our daughter wanted a “european-classic” feel to the venue and The Homestead delivered. When considering all the wedding things - PRiCE IS A BIG DEAL, but also the look of the venue, quality of the food and the training of the staff that will serve your guests. I need to note that all the glasses at this venue are GLASS. This elevates the experience and we loved it! Alexis shared suggestions on vendors when we asked and we did end up hiring a few and we were happy. The leadership at this venue is experienced - they will help make this a magical moment for you. They know what they are doing and WOW - I am so thrilled with how our event went. It was beautiful, well-planned and executed. The entire evening was memorable and our guests were pampered. Also, when I sent an email asking for help, it was quickly returned. Thank-you to all the staff and vendors that helped with our wedding - you guys did an awesome job!

This venue is absolutely beautiful! We got married here on 12.07.2024 and everything was truly perfect. Raven, our wedding coordinator was fantastic. She helped us from day one when we booked over the summer and has truly been heaven sent to us! She is quick to respond to your needs and you can tell she genuinely cares. Carlina helped us as well at rehearsal and the wedding and was amazing. She is so fun and has such a lovable personality. They are truly the best duo. They go above and beyond to make everything go so smoothly and as the stresses that can come with being the bride, I was sooo grateful! The venue itself is lovely. It’s really nice how close everything is, it makes it easier on your guests having the ceremony and reception right by each other. And the courtyard was perfect for cocktails and snacks! Thank you all so much for everything you did to make our day unforgettable!!!

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.
