I first want to say I have worked at this venue a handful of times between both the lodge and the ranch and have had a great experience each time. We've had issues with storage for some vendors and the staff was able to get it handled and assist us pretty quickly. I've loved coordinating at this venue because everything is set up and the staff helps right away the day of. Security is very pleasant to work with as well and they go above and beyond at night. I believe a lot of their services are done in house now and the times I have met their DJ and catering, they're professional. The morning staff does a great job at making sure we know who they are and they check on us throughout. Just want to post this review because reviews from vendors are rare and if you are a bride planning on booking here, as a vendor, they are truly great to work with!

The Little Chapel In-The-Woods was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From their polite, prompt, and thorough communication style, to the beautiful, clean, sweet and inviting quality of their work, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. They made our day feel so special, allowing us to include our own personal touches like garland in the back and bouquets on the pews. Their ample and organized communication, as well as their availability on the weekend my daughter could attend, made the entire process seamless. The history and design of the chapel were immediately inviting and aligned perfectly with our cultural and artistic values. We are so grateful to the team at The Little Chapel In-The-Woods for helping to make our wedding day truly Heaven Sent.

From start to finish, our experience at The Hidden Jewel was nothing short of magical. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and beautifully landscaped grounds that created the perfect backdrop for our special day. We held our ceremony outdoors, surrounded by lush greenery and a serene atmosphere, and it felt like a dream come true. The sunset in the background made our wedding photos the most beautiful I have ever seen! The staff at The Hidden Jewel went above and beyond. Our wedding coordinator was professional, organized, and incredibly attentive. She took care of every detail, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and we were able to relax and enjoy the day without a worry in the world. The catering was outstanding—our guests raved about the food, from the plated salad to the main course, and our cake area was stunning! The reception space was elegant, spacious, and versatile, allowing us to personalize the decor to reflect our style. Whether it was the twinkling lights on the walls or the cozy sitting area out front or tables on the porch for guests, or the Photo Booth outside it allowed our guests to mingle freely. The atmosphere was exactly what we envisioned. The venue’s attention to detail, from the perfect lighting to the perfect sound system, made our night truly unforgettable. Everyone was so impressed with the ease of having everything in one place. We can’t recommend The Hidden Jewel enough for any couple looking for a beautiful, stress-free, and memorable wedding day.

Knotting Hill Place

Little Elm, TX
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

Knotting Hill Place has the perfect indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces. So many couples love the idea of a beautiful outdoor wedding but what happens if the Texas weather does not cooperate? At KHP we have a 10000 sq. ft. synthetic grass event lawn for the outdoor events and a 300 person dome ceiling cathedral if you would like to move indoors to say I do. Our venue was perfectly designed for weddings. It is all about flow and the guest being able to move from space to space easily and be served quickly so that they all may enjoy their special night. Our bride and grooms suites are the best in Texas. They are large and designed with bridal parties in mind. Complete with a TV screen that can watch the cameras of the rest of the venue, private lockers for the bridesmaids personal items, great lighting and salon style chairs and so on. Let's not forget both bridal and grooms suite have built in blue tooth!

Venue considerations

  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
I've had the pleasure of working a few dozen weddings at Knotting Hill Place over the past few years, and this place has truly felt like a home away from home, with each wedding bringing a new experience and ending with big sweaty hugs from another ecstatic couple. Unlike many venues which are just a shell for investors to churn & burn as many weddings as possible, KHP is a family run operation where the owners take a great deal of pride in helping their coupes create magical events. The venue is kept in pristine condition and updates are always made as needed. The close-knit office staff works together very closely and is intimately familiar with not only the couples they work with, but those others are working with as well. Their vendor list is very selective an they will only recommend top notch professionals, and they assure that every couple works with professional planners to assure event days run as smoothly as possible. As a creative, one thing that I really love about KHP is how they give us all the freedom to do our best work. While it may sound obvious, many venues limit what creatives are allowed to do in their space, ultimately hindering the artists abilities to create the best experiences possible. KHP works with all of their vendors to make these things possible, and I have no doubt that this has hugely contributed to their success. I'm looking forward to many more events inside these walls- and in the back of that beautiful property too!

First off, the wedding coordinator MELISSA at The Milestone Denton is godsend and 10000% deserves a huge raise and fat bonus for the amount of work she does and is so helpful in the planning process. She was very honest and upfront during the entire planning process. I am very Type A and for once in my life it was nice to have someone else in charge and I fully trusted her. She even provides recommendations when you don’t know what you want and will be honest with pricing. If it weren’t for Melissa, I don’t know how the wedding would have gone and I would have been so stressed during the planning process. She is so awesome that she goes out of her way to do things for you (be nice everyone!) and is very responsive. She also helped with the reception layout with my divorced parents who do not get along with other family members and it was a success. MELISSA IS THE BEST!! The venue - BEAUTIFUL. We had our ceremony indoors which was nice because our guests were able to take pictures at the gabezo in the back during cocktail hour. If you do your ceremony outside at the gazebo, the guests won’t be able to have their little photoshoots. The entire venue is gorgeous and every corner is a photo-op. It’s a great venue if you have 150 or less people. The big windows everywhere were just so beautiful. The bridal suite is HUGE and beautiful and the grooms suite is upstairs and has a tv and pool table. Perfect for the boys! The food, bar and DJ - everything was great and explained throughly by Melissa so expectations were set and made based on what tier and package you purchased I did not use the Walter Weddings photographer, florists or cake designer so I can’t speak to that. One downfall was on the day of the wedding with Melissa’s day of partner, Allison. She is super sweet and helped steam my bridal gown and Matron of Honor’s dress, which I’m so appreciative of. But I guess she didn’t communicate well to the staff on what needed to be done that day because there were several mishaps that shouldn’t have happened. The ceremony room was incomplete and she didn’t give me the chance to see how the front tables looked. I purchased 100 of bouquet flowers and ribbons that were supposed to be tied to each seat which I was told could be done since it was a simple task to tie 3 flowers and a bow on each aisle chair. This was not done so that small detail from my ceremony room seem bland and a waste of money. The front tables weren’t done how I wanted and it was chaotic having presents with our guestbook and our wedding sign. We wanted to utilize the buffet type table in the front room for presents so it’s not so cluttered when you walk in. Also, a lot of my items were not used for cocktail hour. After the wedding, I noticed the box was opened but she did not use what I purchase and the display for cocktail hour looked like a “backyard bbq” according to my guests. I was so disappointed because I had custom items and “backyard bbq” did not fit the vibe of “old Hollywood glam” of the wedding. Other than the day of mishaps, I highly recommend doing your wedding at Milestone Mansion Denton and having Melissa as your coordinator. GIVE HER A HUGE RAISE, Walter Weddings!!! She’s top notch and deserves it!

About wedding venues in Gordonville, TX

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.

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.

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.
