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.

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!!

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

Harper Hill Ranch will forever hold such a special place in our hearts, and we were beyond ecstatic that our family and friends were able to see and experience the HHR magic! Amy and her team are so passionate and hard working. Everyone says it was their best day ever, but IT’S TRUE!! The care, attention to detail, and genuine love that has gone into HHR is evident and you and your guests will feel that on your wedding day and throughout every step leading up. Steve is a wonderful, generous host that is sure to make your day special by helping make sure you and your guests are attended to with drinks and Longhorn wrangling. Marine and Corey are some of the most kindhearted people. They are so thoughtful and attentive! If there were ever things that needed attention before or during our day, the team at HHR and Niki took care of everything. Having a venue and vendor team that you can trust is SO important, and it really gave me peace of mind and allowed me to be fully present for our day!
