Each guest then comes up and tells us their favorite combination, we make it and serve it to them in a cute martini glass and off they go to enjoy their very own Caketini Creation. However we do offer a 2 tier cake for the traditional cutting and photos in addition to our Caketini Bar. Let your guests choose the cake they love! Not what's chosen for them!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Caketini for our wedding, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! They created a stunning cake for my husband and me, which was not only beautifully designed but also absolutely delicious. In addition to the main cake, Caketini provided smaller personal cakes for our guests, which were equally impressive. The attention to detail and quality of each cake was outstanding, and our guests were raving about them throughout the celebration. The team at Caketini went above and beyond to make our wedding day memorable, and their cakes added a special touch to the occasion. I highly recommend Caketini for anyone looking for top-notch cakes that are both visually stunning and scrumptiously tasty!

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

  • Has a dance floor for celebration

Venue considerations

  • No all-inclusive dining options
  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
My husband and I had our wedding at Texas Rock House and we were absolutely blown away by the level of detail and dedication put into making our special day all the more memorable! We worked with Erin, the venue owner, the entire time leading up to the wedding and she helped connect us with fantastic vendors, plan our timeline for the day of, and guided us through everything else in between. On our actual wedding day, the team was incredibly efficient at helping to set-up before and after the ceremony, as well as and clean up after the reception. The ambiance of the venue was pure magic! With our wedding being in April, we had to switch to our rain back-up plan and the set up in the barn worked perfectly for the ceremony. Texas Rock House and everyone working there was truly the best venue we ever could have imagined! If my husband and I ever find ourselves needing a venue for a future event, Texas Rock House will be the first call we make!

Hi there! I'm a small-town dreamer turned wedding enthusiast, and it all started with planning my own big day. What began as a personal adventure quickly grew into a true passion. ​To me, a wedding isn't just an event - it's a beautiful collection of once in a lifetime moments. I live for the magic of turning those moments into reality through thoughtful coordination, meaningful details, and seamless execution. ​ To craft an experience that feels like your love story brought to life, while giving you the freedom to celebrate, and soak in every second. I can't wait to make your day uniquely yours, and filled with joy from start to finish.

Where do I begin?! Jayna and her team were a God send. They were so amazing and helpful with all the details to make our day stress free and beautiful. Jayna had answers to questions that we did not even think to ask! She is knowledgeable about the fine details and was more than willing to do the work to create a spectacular day. It is easy to see when someone is doing what they love, and we are so lucky that Jayna is that kind of person. Any couple would be lucky to have this team in their corner. My husband and I are so grateful to Jayna and we cannot begin to thank her enough. We were Hitched Without a Glitch!

I’m Taran, the stylist behind Buckle Up Beauty. I’ve been doing hair for nearly 20 years, and some of my favorite work has always been helping women feel beautiful, confident, and completely themselves for the moments that matter most. Buckle Up Beauty was created to bring that experience on location, with a little more personality, a little less pressure, and a whole lot of care. I love everything from soft romantic styles and polished waves to vintage-inspired looks, textured updos, and hair that feels effortless and just a little bit wild.

I booked Buckle Up Beauty and Taran made the whole experience so smooth. She responded to all our questions quickly and was genuinely kind throughout the process. What stood out most was how honest she was about what would work best with my outfit and the pace we took with my cut. Taran removed just small amounts at a time, making sure I felt comfortable and confident the whole way through. Her styling turned out adorable, and she had this easy-going energy that put me at ease. I'd definitely recommend Buckle Up Beauty to any couple looking for someone who actually cares about making you feel your best on the big day.

  • Florist

Unlike a large company, when you hire Ladybug events & designs LLC, you will have Evelyn, Larry, and Andrew at your wedding. From the centerpieces to bouquets to the editing of your pictures...from setting up to cleaning up, they will be the ones handling your event and all details. They pride themselves on taking Your Vision, Your Style, Your Day...And Making It Happen

Evelyn and her team were an absolute joy to work with for our wedding florals and table decor! From the very beginning, communication was effortless and thoughtful. Evelyn took such care in asking the right questions and truly listening, which made me feel completely confident that my vision was understood and then brought to life beautifully! When we ran into a challenge with our original stone table numbers from another vendor and had to switch to wood, Evelyn didn’t miss a beat. She remembered my original vision and went out of her way to custom-make marble tiles to incorporate into the tablescape so we could still have that stone element. It was such a meaningful, thoughtful detail and one I will always appreciate. On the wedding day, Evelyn’s calm professionalism stood out. She was incredibly flexible in coordinating with our wedding coordinator and cake vendor, making sure the florals were placed on the cake with care and allowing everything to come together perfectly. As a former event planner planning my own wedding, I know how much goes on behind the scenes and Evelyn and her team made the entire experience feel easy and enjoyable. Their attention to detail, creativity, and genuine care truly set them apart. I am so grateful we found them and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful design paired with exceptional service.

Booked a weekend with Melrose for our dearest friends - we floated the river daytime and spent the afternoon at the pool before utilizing their brand new event pavillion. We even did a casual dinner one night under the Veranda which I loved. The lighting and charm of the space left us stilla t the table after 10pm. Morning after a group of us took our coffee and sat down by the river. Some sat, some swam. The kind of low-key, high-quality, high-low weekend that's harder to find than it should be. They fill a huge need in central Texas. The team was fantastic - they took care of returning our floats to the vendor without us even asking, and generally just let us do our thing. The property has this dialed-in vibe where everything's thoughtful but nothing feels fussy. My friends are still bringing it up months later, which says everything. It's rare to find a place that gets the details right without making a production of it. Easy drive from Austin & San Antonio which makes it a perfect destination for gathering.

We worked with Two Shakes and a Twist for bartending at our 130 person wedding and they were incredible! From the start, April was so communicative and supportive (we actually went with one of her catering recommendations). Despite crazy weather and a pivot from our initial cocktail hour plan, they kept our guests taken care of and drinks in our hands. They worked great with our catering team and I would highly recommend working with them. We happened to get married on April and James' ANNIVERSARY and were so honored that we could share our big day with them - we even closed down the bar and got them out on the floor for a dance or two! 10/10 would do it all again!

"It all started with a cookie. I have been baking since I was a little girl and have now been in business full-time for over 17 years. I truly can't imagine doing anything else.." -Michelle Doyon As a young child, Michelle's passion for baking took shape in the kitchen of her grandmother. While her grandmother was making homemade tortillas, Michelle would take a ball of dough, roll it out and stamp cookie cutters into it, making her first "cookies". Her mother taught her how to master her special German Chocolate cake recipe, and from then Michelle explored many other areas of baking.

From our first conversation, Michelle at Michelle's Patisserie made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She responded quickly to our messages and was clear about timelines and pricing, which we really appreciated. Our small vintage cake was stunning and tasted incredible, and the price was fair for the quality we received. Michelle went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our big day, and her kindness made us feel like we were her only clients. We'd recommend her in a heartbeat to any couple looking for a dessert that's both beautiful and delicious. Five stars all around!

Photography began as a way to help my wife see herself through a different lens. What started as a personal passion grew into a love for documenting life's most meaningful moments and the people who share them. Today, I specialize in weddings and couples, creating images that help you relive not just how your day looked, but how it felt. My goal is to provide a relaxed, enjoyable experience while preserving memories you'll cherish for years to come.

Ceelo Creative was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, he was friendly, professional and open-minded, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Chris did a great job of giving us lots of options for couple photos and was happy to get lots of shots of us with our family members. The lighting in our photos is simply stunning, and really captures all the special moments of our day. We are thrilled with the quality of Ceelo Creative's work and the value they provided. Highly recommend them to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photographer!

Beth and Chris are truly the heart and soul of what made our wedding so special. From the moment we booked our venue last December to our wedding day in June, they made everything feel effortless, personal, and full of warmth. Both are incredibly kind, organized, and attentive—always going above and beyond to make sure every detail was just right. Their team did a flawless job bringing our vision to life; every photo, décor piece, and little touch was placed perfectly. We especially loved how thoughtful they were in allowing our sweet pup, Hershey, to be part of our pictures outside the venue—it meant so much to us! The entire day flowed beautifully, our guests had the best time, and everything was coordinated to perfection. We are endlessly grateful to Beth and Chris for making our wedding day as magical and memorable as we had always dreamed.
