San Marcos, TX

  • Select services

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!

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.
