Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first contacted Ivy Hall Events, we were impressed by their warm and friendly communication style. The team was extremely competent and made us feel so welcomed and special throughout the entire planning process. We didn't need any additional decor because the venue itself was so beautiful, and our photos turned out absolutely stunning thanks to their recommended vendors. The food was truly the best we've ever had at a wedding, and the overall vibe was incredibly fun and energetic. We were so overwhelmed when we started planning, but Ivy Hall Events made everything so easy from the beginning. The entire team contributed to making our special day absolutely perfect. We can't thank them enough for all that they did to ensure our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more.

The Gardens of Cranesbury View 

5.0

New Braunfels, TX
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $7,000

I have always enjoyed European gardens, they are magical! My inspiration was the Gardens of Versailles located in France. I wanted to create the Fairy-tail venue for our brides to walk through, with elegant formal pruned shrubs, enchanting Juliette balcony to over look the 3 acres of gardens with 250 rose bushes. Old world architecture to give it that Cinderella vibe. The ballroom is all white with 3 crystal chandeliers, a white marble floor, with walls enhanced with the Bridgerton details to give it that simple elegance. The Mansion is where the bridal party gets ready with lots of space, large bridal & Grooms suite, large kitchen, 3 bathrooms/showers, and a beautiful spiral staircase. We also have Guest accommodations available, created in a small private French Village with 6 individual chateaus decorated in the French style of elegance. The Village has a large town square fountain, swimming pool with lounging furniture, BBQ & corn hull game and butterfly garden.

I still can’t believe a place this magical exists in Texas! When I started looking for wedding venues, I never expected to find such beautiful gardens right here in New Braunfels. It made me feel like I had been transported straight to the European countryside, and was everything I dreamed of for my wedding day! At first, I felt overwhelmed with all the planning, but Amy was truly incredible. She was so kind and supportive, offering amazing vendor recommendations that perfectly matched our style. The vendors we chose made the entire process so much easier, and I’m beyond grateful for the fabulous team that helped make our perfect day a possibility. When it came time the wedding day was so relaxing. We stayed in the little French village she had next door and it made everything so easy! It felt like there was nothing to stress about and I could just focus on the fun part (getting married!!!) Our photos look like something out of a fairytale, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how stunning the venue was. We will definitely be coming back to renew our vows in a couple years, just so we can do it all over again. Highly highly recommend the gardens of Cranesbury View! 3

Texas Rock House 

5.0

San Marcos, TX
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,095
  • Offer

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!

Why you'll love this venue

  • Lush gardens
  • Wheelchair accessible
  • Has a dance floor for celebration

Venue considerations

  • No all-inclusive dining options
  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
The team at Texas Rock House was open, understanding and a bit busy, but they made our special day truly wonderful. The venue was very beautiful and affordable, which was important to us as a young couple. The owner, Erin, did her best to help as much as she could to make the days leading up to and the day of our wedding as easy as possible. She was very personable and good at collaborating with us. When it started raining on the day of our wedding, Erin was very quick to come up with a solution and it ended up being an awesome celebration despite the weather. We are so grateful for the Texas Rock House team and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a gorgeous and budget-friendly wedding venue.

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?

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:

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.

Dallas spaces tend to showcase luxury urban environments with elegant design elements that create a refined atmosphere.

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.

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.
