Nestled in the Texas Hill Country amidst lush greenery, waterfalls and blooming flowers, the venue exudes romance and elegance! The venue is everything you need if you’re looking to host your family on-site leading up to your wedding. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive ensuring everything was in order. The open air chapel area, adorned with stunning greenery and painted glass provided a picturesque backdrop that felt straight out of a fairytale. Absolutely Breathtaking! The reception space was equally impressive, with a spacious layout that allowed for both dining and dancing. The lighting transformed the space into a warm, inviting atmosphere as the sun set. We rented the Homestead for the morning of our wedding for all of the bridesmaids to get ready and I must say, SO worth it! The Homestead is absolutely gorgeous and extremely spacious. 10/10 recommend adding to your package. Overall, La Bonne Vie Ranch is an exceptional choice for any couple looking for a beautiful and stress-free wedding venue!

Inspiring Oaks was everything we were hoping it would be and more. Easily the most beautiful and scenic venue we saw in all of our searching. The property is huge - the main house, ceremony site, reception area, and everything in-between made for so many amazing pictures and memories. Being able to stay at the venue for the weekend was great in so many ways - it was so nice not having to worry about forgetting anything on the big day, it was great having a big space to hang out with close friends and family all weekend, and it was so packed with fun amenities that there was never a dull moment during our stay. Even with all of the features we loved about the property, one of the highlights of picking this venue was having Greg as our venue host. In every interaction with him he would go above and beyond to make sure that we had all of our questions answered, had all the tours we needed to feel comfortable about the big day, and put in the extra effort on our wedding weekend to make sure we (and our guests) could focus more on enjoying the weekend rather than venue logistics. He was a big part in making the experience as memorable as it was. I highly recommend this venue to anyone who enjoys hill-country backdrops, the background of every photo will look so amazing. I also recommend it if you're looking to make the most out of your wedding - instead of the normal experience of renting a venue for half a day, this will let you stretch out your wedding experience to a whole weekend with your closest friends and family.

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!

Wow, I am not even sure where to start with our review of King River Ranch! Absolutely everything was incredible! My Husband and I fell in love with the look and feel of the venue from the first moment we stepped on the ranch and met the owner David. He made us feel right at home and the venue was the exact place we had been looking for to get married! King River Ranch staff will even help you with floral design, vendor referrals, rentals, wedding decorations and make sure it is perfect for the best day of your life. They are experts in floral design and can help you make your wedding dreams turn into reality. The view from the ceremony site right on the Pedernales river was breathtaking. The whole place just has a magical feeling to it, The Barn, the ceremony site, the lawn areas….and all the beautiful animals that live on the property including the ranch horse King! The honeymoon suite is just beautiful, such a lovely place for the bride to get ready with her bridesmaids and for the couple to stay the night of their wedding. I could not have asked for a better venue to get ready with my best friends and it is a day I will remember forever. The groom and groomsmen have their own room to get ready with a TV to watch all their sporting events and can walk down to the Pedernales river to hang out with their buddies. My husband loved being able to use this ranch during the day! We also took our engagement pictures at the ranch which was so much fun, and I could not have asked for a prettier background for our save the dates. It was amazing to be able to meet our photographer before the day of our wedding and he also became familiar with our wedding site! People often ask us what the best part about our wedding day was and for both of us the best part about the day was dancing the night away under the beautiful hill country stars. We had several people come up to us saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to and everything was so perfect. We highly recommend King River Ranch, David, and all his staff. They go above and beyond to make everything perfect for your dream wedding. We keep in touch with everyone we met during our wedding journey and so lucky that we stumbled upon this magical venue. Thank you, David, and KRR Staff, you made our day the most special day of our lives. Love You KRR! Jordan & Chase.

The venue itself is truly unique, with beautiful rustic decor and cows roaming the grounds - it provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. They were so accommodating to our needs and provided us with lots of options to customize the space. We couldn't have been happier with our choice of The Lodge Event Center and highly recommend it to any couple looking for a stunning, one-of-a-kind wedding venue.
