At Carriage Hills Ranch, our roots run deep in family, love, and the rich history of our Texas Hill Country land. Owner Christine grew up on this cherished property, where generations of her family created lasting memories. Inspired by those moments she transformed the land into a wedding venue filled with love and history. From a beautiful gazebo, with amphitheater seating, overlooking a wet-weather lake, to a restored 100-year-old barn and a historic San Antonio streetcar-turned-bar, every detail reflects our family's story. The venue has lots of extras (at no extra charge) along with numerous planning resources that makes planning your big day a joy. Today, Michelle and the team personally care for each couple, treating them like family. They have a servant's-heart and love helping our couples that serve our community, such as military, veterans, and first responders. At Carriage Hills Ranch, your wedding isn’t just an event—it’s a heartfelt extension of our family legacy.

“The BEST venue out there. Cannot decide which was more perfect -the venue itself or the people who own it. Michelle and her family are absolutely the best to work with. They truly go above and beyond for their clients and I can't even imagine getting married anywhere else. We wanted a hallmark Christmas movie vibe and they DELIVERED. Our guests got so many amazing photos (lots of profile pic updates da) just because of the serene beauty of the venue. They helped keep me calm and give hugs when needed on such a stressful day. Cannot recommend them enough! So blessed to be a part of the carriage hills family now!!!”

The Resort at Fredericksburg 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Fredericksburg, TX
  • Up to 550 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $10,000

There's a particular kind of quiet you only find on a Hill Country ranch at golden hour — live oaks throwing long shadows, the Pedernales River catching the last light, the kind of view that makes people stop mid-sentence. That's the backdrop we start every wedding with at The Resort At Fredericksburg, featuring The Edge. We built this place to do something most venues can't: flex. Planning an intimate gathering of 40 close friends, or a 400-person celebration that takes over the whole property? Both work here, because we're not a single room you're forced to make fit — we're 12,000 square feet of indoor space, generous covered patios, and five acres of ranch and riverfront to move between. Say your vows overlooking the water, walk guests to cocktail hour on the patio as the sun drops, then bring everyone inside (or keep them under the stars) for a reception that actually feels like your wedding, not a template.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Private area for the wedding party
  • Provides a dedicated team on-site
  • Provides lighting and sound

Venue considerations

  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • No free parking
  • Best for events with big guest lists
“The Resort at Fredericksburg was the perfect choice for our wedding day. From our first conversation through the final details, their team stayed courteous and responsive, which kept us relaxed throughout the planning process. The venue itself is absolutely stunning with plenty of space for all our guests to move around and celebrate comfortably. We loved how the beautiful grounds gave us options for photos and different areas to enjoy. We're already planning to return for our anniversaries and would absolutely recommend this resort to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding location.”

About wedding venues in Fredericksburg, TX

Saying "I do" in Fredericksburg means you'll exchange vows surrounded by 200-year-old oak trees, vineyards with stunning fall foliage backdrops and German-influenced limestone architecture dating back to the 1840s. Your guests will love the pedestrian-friendly historic district with over 30 tasting rooms and authentic German bakeries creating an immersive weekend experience that goes well beyond just attending your ceremony.

What Makes Fredericksburg Wedding Venues Stand Out in Texas Hill Country?

Fredericksburg's wedding venues offer you distinctive features you won't find elsewhere; stained glass open-air chapels, vineyard pergolas naturally draped with mature grapevines and German-style stone buildings topped with copper roofs. You can choose hillside ceremony sites with panoramic views across cypress-lined creeks while many properties feature wildflower fields that put on a spectacular show from March through May.

How Much Should You Budget for a Fredericksburg Wedding?

100 guests$33,318
150 guests$45,854
200 guests$57,060
250 guests$68,266
300 guests$79,473

Which Fredericksburg Venues Offer Outstanding Culinary Experiences?

You'll find exceptional food at Swallows Eve which distinguishes itself with an on-site culinary program featuring locally sourced ingredients and custom menu creation. Willow Grove Estate offers gourmet experiences guided by owner Jeff Orlik a wine and cooking connoisseur. La Marguerite provides in-house catering that blends European elegance with Texas charm and can accommodate up to 200 guests at your celebration.

How Can Remote Guests Participate in Your Fredericksburg Wedding?

While many venues offer basic livestreaming you'll want to consider locations that enhance virtual participation. La Marguerite's picturesque European-inspired setting creates beautiful backdrops that translate well to virtual elements. The Ginger Ranch gives you space for interactive sessions with remote guests. You can enhance their experience with pre-recorded venue tours or virtual reality explorations making them feel truly included beyond just watching a basic stream.

When is the Best Time for a Fredericksburg Wedding?

October dominates Fredericksburg's wedding calendar giving you mild temperatures and vineyard harvest season with rich burgundy and gold backdrops. Spring weddings let you showcase bluebonnet and wildflower displays though you'll need to consider cedar pollen for any allergy-prone guests. Summer ceremonies benefit from extended daylight but you'll want to incorporate climate considerations like shaded sites and cooling stations to keep everyone comfortable.
