“I cannot recommend this venue enough! Clarissa and Rob treated us so well from the first tour we took all throughout the year and a half of planning to the day of our wedding reception. We booked a Sunday package and while we were a little worried about people from the previous wedding being out on time for our guests to be accommodated, they did an amazing job keeping us in the loop with updates. We were granted access early morning (as promised) to start decor and we used so much from their decor barn which was a great extra! Seth went above and beyond, even when he had to stay to cover the night manager last minute. He ran the golf carts for us, bartended, and was totally on top of everything that came his way! We cannot thank The Oaks team enough for making our day go as smooth as possible and have everything ready to go in such a small turnaround! Being able to wake up and have breakfast with our family in the cabin area is extremely worth booking this overnight venue.”

The inside is a huge space which opens up through a garage door to a patio with a garden and streamed lights. It’s truly a gem and we’re so lucky we got to have our party here.

“If I could move into the Fairmont Austin, I would. I absolutely LOVE this hotel! From the very beginning, their team was incredibly easy to work with and made the process of setting up and managing our wedding room block completely seamless. They consistently provided updates, answered any questions we had, and made sure every detail was taken care of both leading up to the wedding and throughout the entire weekend. The hotel itself is stunning. The rooms are beautiful and luxurious, and the entire property feels sleek, clean, and elevated. And somehow, the whole hotel always smells amazing! Our wedding guests loved staying at the Fairmont, and we received so many compliments about the accommodations throughout the weekend. It was the perfect home base for everyone during our wedding celebrations. The day after our wedding, we rented several cabanas at the pool for a post-wedding pool day with more than 100 of our guests. The pool staff was AMAZING. They handled such a large group with ease and provided incredible service all day long. It was the perfect way to wrap up the weekend. My maid of honor also gifted my husband and me a spa day, and the Fairmont Spa was absolutely gorgeous. We both agreed it was one of the best massages we’ve ever had and such a relaxing way to unwind after the wedding festivities. From the accommodations and service to the pool and spa, our entire experience was incredible. I would recommend the Fairmont Austin without hesitation for a wedding weekend, special occasion, staycation, or honestly any excuse you can find to stay there!”

I knew once I got engaged, I had to have my wedding here. I got so many compliments from my guests! The Vine hits all the check marks with the chapel, bride & groom cottages to get ready in, jaw dropping barrel barn, gorgeous landscaping and so on. Jason & Christy were very professional, and genuinely care about one of the biggest days of your life. They are so involved and will answer all of your questions. For example, my dress had a very difficult bustle, and Jason was right there trying to help the girls get it fastened. Jason knew we needed to stay on schedule and get the party started! Jason and Christy accommodated all of my needs and exceeded my expectations, they make a great team! Also, my event planner Lesli Hirsh was AMAZING!

“Woodbine Mansion was everything I dreamed of and more! I only toured one venue, and the second I stepped onto the grounds, I knew it was where I had to get married. From start to finish, their communication was incredible. I always felt informed, supported, and completely in the loop throughout the entire planning process. There was never a point where I felt like I didn’t know what was going on or what came next. We chose to use their clear-top tent for our reception, and it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. It completely transformed the space and created the exact atmosphere I had envisioned for our wedding. Woodbine also has an extensive list of recommended vendors, and everyone we worked with was professional, accommodating, and genuinely wonderful. Before getting married, I constantly heard people say, “It can be difficult working with venues to get exactly what you want.” That could not have been further from my experience with Woodbine. Their team did everything they could to help bring my vision to life and gave me everything I needed to create my dream wedding day. The getting-ready suites are also gorgeous and created the perfect atmosphere for the morning of the wedding. Our bridal party had the best time getting ready there, and everyone absolutely adored the venue. Another thing I loved about Woodbine is how many different spaces they have for ceremonies and events. There are so many beautiful areas throughout the property, which gives you the flexibility to create a wedding that truly feels like your own. If I could redo my wedding 1,000 times, I would choose Woodbine Mansion every single time. It was truly the perfect place for our day, and I couldn’t recommend it more!”

Weddings at Windy Knoll

Windy Knoll is our family ranch. When my husband and I got engaged, we wanted nothing more than to get married at Windy Knoll. Rather than rent a tent for the occasion, my mom decided to build a wedding venue! The wood beams that make up the bones of the Wedding Barn were originally erected in the 1840s in Maryland. The original barn was the site of several battles during the Civil War, partially burned down, and rebuilt in the 1860s. A company called Heritage Restorations disassembled the beams and transported them all the way to Round Top, where they were reassembled and turned into the Wedding Barn.

About wedding venues in Smithville, 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. November emerges as the most popular month for venue inquiries across the state, so you might want to plan accordingly if you're interested in this popular time frame.

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. You'll also find excellent accessible options at Jennings Trace near Houston which offers single-level celebration spaces. 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.

What Wedding Expenses Should You Budget for in Texas?

Beyond your venue there are several other key expenses to consider when planning a Texas wedding. For a typical 150-guest celebration your budget will likely break down this way: - Florists: $6,755 (15%) - Venue: $6,932 (16%) - Catering: $5,546 (12%) - Bar services: $4,437 (10%) - Photographers: $3,966 (9%) - Videographers: $3,555 (8%) - Planners: $3,768 (8%) - Bands & DJs: $1,299 (3%) - Cakes & desserts: $853 (2%) - Hair & makeup: $495 (1%)
