We knew the Terrace Club was going to be our venue from the moment we walked in. I love bling and it was everywhere. We wanted to be married outside, but also wanted a plan B that was separate from the reception in case of bad weather. Thankfully we didn't have to go with plan B. Kristen is amazing and always responded to my emails within the same day. She was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. My MIL got makeup on my husband and I before pictures and Kristen came to the rescue! She allowed the day of our wedding to run smoothly and stress free. Hunter, Sophie and the rest of the crew were so nice and always welcoming. We love that a lot was included and it saved us a ton of money. We were allowed to drop off our alcohol and decorations the Monday before our wedding. This helped tremendously and allowed us to relax the week of our wedding. Our wedding was held on Cinco de Mayo so we decided to go with a Mexican theme and serve something different from their normal menu options. They were extremely accomodating and allowed us to do what we wanted. I can't thank the Terrace Club enough for our gorgeous and fun wedding!

The Terrace Club was the BEST decision I made when it came to all my wedding details. Everything I asked for was performed with such detail and accuracy! The coordinator (Sophie) turned my direction and ideas into something 10 times better than I could have come up with!! The food was GREAT! The staff was WONDERFUL! The night ran without any hiccups!!! But besides how great the service and reception was the Terrace Club view is where all the talk comes from!! If you are looking for you DREAM Texas hill country wedding than the TERRACE CLUB is the right spot to make that dream come true!!!!!!!!
Thank you Sophie for EVERYTHING you did, Charles and I could not ask for more!!!!! We love you and the Terrace Club!

The Terrace Club was the absolute perfect choice for our wedding ceremony and reception. We live in the DFW area and actually contacted the TC and made the down payment without ever having seen it in person (by recommendation of my parents). That was the best decision we ever made and one we’ve not been disappointed with at any point. I have a tendency to get stressed quite easily but can honestly say that at no point during this process did I ever get stressed out. Kristen was a phenomenal planner who was able to answer every question and always made the best suggestions. She never steered us wrong. And I think it is important to mention that we live four hours away from the venue and never had any issues with planning or communicating!
Our rehearsal ran very smoothly. Kristen gave us all the information we needed for the next day. Even though my crowd had the tendency to get a little rowdy, she was always able to keep us in line :). Our wedding day was the absolute best day ever, hands down!! I wasn’t ever nervous or stressed at any point during that day or night. All I remember is smiling and being happy throughout the whole day and genuinely having a lot of fun. The ceremony was beautiful and went off without a hitch. The reception flowed beautifully. Even with our photographer changing things up in the middle of the reception (which got us off schedule), Kristen didn’t break a sweat. She made whatever changes were necessary so that the evening continued on without a hindrance. Everything was so smooth and seamless. I remember Kristen always being around to ensure we were at the right place at the right time throughout the evening. She made sure we always knew what was going on. She made sure Sean and I ate. There was a moment I had a slight meltdown due to family drama, and before I knew it Kristen was next to me with a glass of champagne. She was encouraging me and calming me down… it was perfect. I got it together and we moved on to the next part of the evening. I remember every part of the night, from the first dance to the cake cutting. Even right down to our sendoff every detail was perfect. They even packed our getaway car with to-go plates for both of us and pieces of both cakes. EVERY SINGLE DETAIL is covered!!!
I cannot say enough great things about this venue and their amazing staff. Everyone is so very friendly and personable. They truly take care of the bride and the groom on their day and make sure they do have the best day possible. They are very responsive to questions and concerns. They go above and beyond the call of duty. Kristen actually took time out to stop by our hotel after the wedding to drop off some items we left at the venue. Even after the wedding was done and everyone had left, Kristen was still on top of everything. They have a great attention to detail. You will truly have a stress free day if you choose the TC.
I could go on and on and on (guess I kind of did), but honestly, words can’t express the pure joy Sean and I felt on our wedding day. It was an amazing day and we enjoyed every second of it. We know that a large part of that had to do with the amazing, beautiful, awesome, wonderful, flawless job the staff at the Terrace Club did on that day. We can't thank you enough.

Wedding: 3/10/12
My husband and I wanted a hill country wedding, and we loved that The Terrace Club provided a picture-perfect atmosphere with beautiful outdoor views! The fact that TC offers a complete package with multiple choices for customization was also a huge relief (because we were planning from out-of-town with hectic schedules). Kristen was our contact from early on, and she was always quick to respond to emails and give detailed feedback and suggestions during our year engagement. My mother, grandmother, and I met with Kristen about a month before the wedding to discuss the details of the day, and she was helpful beyond my expectations! She described several options for the menu and décor, and discussed the plans for how she would organize the rehearsal. We had a complicated situation where my brother’s attendance at the wedding was tentative, and we wouldn’t be able to confirm this important detail until 3 days before the wedding—Kristen was incredibly kind and made two potential outlines for the ceremony based on these circumstances, so that we wouldn’t have to worry about any last minute changes!
During the rehearsal, Kristen was able to maintain control of our large wedding party without being demanding. She was organized, attentive, and prepared to help us complete our rehearsal in about 30 minutes or less! Her professionalism and time-management skills allowed for more valuable time to visit with our friends/family at the rehearsal dinner! The 80% chance of severe thunderstorms on the wedding-weekend couldn’t dampen our spirits, as Kristen and her team (including the very kind intern, Marissa) had all of the back-up plans covered! They provided so many alternative ideas for a gorgeous indoor-ceremony, so my husband and I knew we would be thrilled , regardless of the absent sunset and change-of-plans. It was a very wet and windy wedding day, but the ceremony space was stunning and our guests shared how much they loved the "intimate", "romantic", and "special" setting that Kristen and her crew created. As my husband and I got ready for the ceremony, Kristen made sure every last detail was attended to, and she communicated with the other wedding vendors to keep things running smoothly. My mom later told me that she was so nervous about managing my gown, veil, and bustle, and she was more than happy that Kristen knew how to quickly take care of adjusting all of the accessories.
Overall, Kristen’s guidance and direction were essential in making our wedding experience flawless; and the TC truly has the best team of staff to make a memorable (stress-free) day! Lastly, the food was delicious, the ballroom reception looked amazing, and we made it home with all of our personal items, gifts, remaining alcohol, and take-out boxes of dinner/cake to eat in our hotel suite. We couldn’t imagine a better send-off to our honeymoon! We’d recommend The Terrace Club to anyone and everyone looking for an exciting, full-service wedding venue with incredibly welcoming and experienced staff!

I could not put into words how amazing the Terrace Club is for a wedding venue. The facility is clean, with the decorations it is elegant, the view is outstanding, and the staff is some of the most courteous and knowledgeable that we came across when searching for a venue for our special day. I was so nervous about getting every detail done right, but once we met Kristen at the Terrace Club I was at total ease. She is the most knowledgeable, friendly, organized, and creative wedding coordinator that we met when touring venues. She took our thoughts and ideas and made our wedding more then we could have ever imagined. The vendor list, (which all the vendors are amazing), makes getting the menu, flowers, cake, photographer,DJ, and anything else you could possibly want at a wedding so simple and hassle free. We are still getting compliments on how elegant the venue was decorated, to the quality of the food and cake, as well as how friendly the staff was throughout the night. I can honestly say that I was not worried one bit about any detail going untouched with Kristen and her staff at the Terrace Club. I highly recommend this venue as the best in town.

Everyone at the Terrace Club is committed to making your wedding the most memorable day of your life and to keeping you as stress free as possible throughout. The place is beautiful; in the hill country, wedding at sunset. The reception space is like a blank canvas that you can make your own for your day. The staff worked so hard. I'm so glad I had my wedding there. Everyone had a great time.

This venue is perfection! We had our wedding this New Year's Eve and I could not have asked for a more breathtaking evening or location! The outdoor ceremony area is unmatched - with a beautiful staircase from which the bride enters to a perfectly natural and elegant hill country vista. Walking down the stairs to my groom took my breath away.
The flow for the entire evening could not have been more well thought out. There is plenty of room for every set up imaginable. Since we were having our wedding in the winter we wanted a location that could accomodate us inside or outside and still be perfectly elegant and beautiful and this location certainly provided this option. We had a warm and beautiful waiting area for guests to mingle indoors while they waited to be seated outside (since we were lucky enough to have perfect weather). Immediately following the ceremony guests were escorted upstairs for the reception. The views from the upper reception area were absolutely amazing!
Aside from the absolute natural beauty of the venue the service could not be more incredible! Kristin, Hunter and Sofia are the most beautiful, fun, warm and talented wedding coordinators you could possibly ask for. Hunter and Kristen planned every last detail to perfection - there was nothing that they overlooked. It was such a relief to know that they were excited to make our wedding everything we wanted.
The day of the wedding they ensured every last detail in set up was perfectly executed. Then throughout the night they kept us on time while also giving us plenty of time to just enjoy all the wonderful moments of the evening. When it was over, we were sent away with special little "to go" packages, some champagne and a million special memories!
So if you want a location for your dream wedding that is not only breathtaking but also stress free - you have found it with The Terrace Club!
Many thanks to you all for making this the best evening of our lives!

We had our wedding at The Terrace Club on 11-11-11 and it was beyond my dreams and expectations. Hunter and Kristen are a dream team and anything you want, they can make happen. They were always available to answer questions and help ease my mind during the planning process. The day of my wedding, they took care of everything and I mean EVERYTHING. I was so relieved that I didn't have to worry about a thing even when I didn't have a wedding planner. As you can see, the venue is beautiful and the sunset ceremonies are a MUST there. I highly recommend them to anyone who is thinking about having their wedding there. Those gals know everything about the industry and we wouldn't have had the best day of our lives without their support and dedication.

For anyone interested in a Hill Country setting outside of Austin there is just no reason to go anywhere except the Terrace Club. There is literally nothing the staff cannot do to make your wedding a perfect experience for the bride and groom and all the family and friends as well. Kristen and Hunter and all of their staff are simply superb. Our menu was totally flexible and whatever special considerations we asked for regarding food were accommodated. The value was extraordinary especially compared to other venues in the Austin area. It is a cost efficient choice since all decor items are included at no additional expense and the bride and groom are allowed to provide their own liquor. There is no reason to even concern yourself with details of the timeline,
setting up with the photographer, catering issues etc. The coordinators are letter perfect in making sure all these details are taken care of. The bride and groom, their families and the bridal party have nothing to think about except looking pretty, handsome, and experiencing the joy of the moment. The Terrace Club makes magic happen.

The Terrace Club is amazing. The girls who run it are so professional, organized and have the most amazing attention to detail. I worried about NOTHING on my wedding day. I could not have asked for a better place with better people.

Wedding: 10/21/11
We cannot say more wonderful things about Kristen at the terrace club!! From our very first visit to the venue throughout the entire wedding planning process, Kristen was incredibly patient, kind, understanding, and organized. At first I was a bit nervous for things like only allowing one food caterer and if there was inclement weather, the option for indoors wouldn't have been quite like the outdoor experience, but the food caterers are amazing and their flexibility to completely customize the menu was fantastic. Kristen addressed every question or concern with patience and poise. She was also very professional to work with as she always responded to calls and emails promptly, in most cases within a few hours! I even called Kristen once on her day off and she spend an hour on the phone easing my concerns with certain aspects of our ceremony. The whole team at the Terrace Club was phenomenal in that they communicated well with each other and responded back to us if Kristen wasn't immediately available.
Kristen and her team really took charge at our rehearsal and at the wedding itself. Those at our rehearsal also had wonderful things to say about Kristen to my husband and me - they were impressed with her ability to take charge and coordinate a large group in a very professional and entertaining way. At the wedding, Kristen and her team accounted for every detail and moved everything along seamlessly, from families photos to the wedding party processional to the cake cutting and bouquet toss, so my husband and I and our families were free to take it all in and just celebrate the day.
Overall, we were so happy with how our wedding went and would recommend Terrace Club without...

Wedding: 10/15/11
As a Type A bride, I started my research on venues even before I was engaged. After looking at practically ever venue in and around Austin, I knew that The Terrace Club would be the best choice for me and my fiance, and I couldn't have been more right! If I could give 10 stars for everything, I would! Anyone that uses any other venue is missing out on the opportunity to have a smooth-sailing day with friendly staff who are on top of their game and know how to run a successful and BEAUTIFUL wedding!
Kristen answered my questions and helped me with a quote even before I was engaged. After we got engaged, I decided that this was the first place we'd look at, and when we had our meeting with Kristen, we left with a deposit down and a date reserved! She was SO accommodating, helpful, knowledgeable, and sweet to us as a newly engaged couple!
Over the next 10 months, Kristen kindly answered each and every question I had without making me feel like I was bugging her (even if she had to tell me something twice). She was patient and clear with me and accommodated any changes I made. She offered helpful suggestions and let me vent to her about wedding issues I had along the way. When I had trouble contacting a vendor, she was on top of it and I heard from the vendor THAT DAY! I was never dupped into anything, the invoice was totally clear, and in the end, I knew exactly what I was getting and how much I was paying for it.
At the rehearsal, Kristen (tiny as she is) was in charge and you knew it; she directed well and everyone knew where they were supposed to be. She calmed me down when she saw me worried and stressed, and told me I was to stop worrying because how the wedding day was going to happen was exactly how it was SUPPOSED to happen. My friends, family, and I thought that she couldn't have put it any better. The rehearsal was smooth, on point, and she was accommodating to me wanting to run through my part 3 times just so I could feel better.
The Terrace Club is a BEAUTIFUL venue for a ceremony and reception! We had a relatively small wedding, and the outside ceremony area was so intimate and beautiful. The TC decorated the alter with our outside deocrations then broke them down for us at no cost. They also have SO many centerpiece decorations you can use included in the per-person prices, so we saved a TON of money there. All the deocor they did was gorgeous and fit my vision PERFECTLY!
On the wedding day, I worried about nothing except me being on time (and I'm a worrier). When we went to take pre-wedding pictures by the alter, and the alter decorations were only half-done, I looked at Kristen and she said "they're not done now, but they will be" and I knew I could trust her. She was attentive and so very knowledgeable about how a wedding day was supposed to run; she put my mind at ease, which isn't easy to do!
I chose to use most of their "preferred vendors" so most of my vendors were familiar with The TC, so I had no issues with missing flowers or late cakes. We used The TC's Black Tie BBQ menu, and what I was able to eat was good enough for me! Their hors d'ouerves were great, too! The important thing was, everything came, nothing was missing, and all was where it should have been.
We had friends and family coming in from Austin, Boerne, San Antonio, and Johnson City, so the location was nice...secluded but close enough so people who wanted to drive home could. The scenery is beautiful, and the reception space indoors is gorgeous. I read some reviews that said the inside was too "industrial" for them...I assure you, the way these ladies decorate that place, you would think you were in a fairytale!
Kristen, Sophie, and Hunter all made sure the ceremony ran smoothly, and while Kristen monitored things from downstairs where my bridesmaids were walking, Sophie and Hunter (who are also incredibly sweet and helpful) stayed upstairs with me and my dad, helping us know what was going on. The ceremony was beautiful, perfect space, everything set up to my desires, and as soon as it was over, Kristen ushered me and my husband to the downstairs room where she had some of our hors d'ouerves waiting for us with beer and wine, and asked us what we wanted to drink. But she didn't stop there; she made sure we were where we ALL needed to be for post-ceremony pictures, and did small things like fix guys boutineers, fluff my dress, and get my deoderant stains off my husbands tux jacket. She made sure my family members were close according to the photographer's schedule, and helded the photographer by making sure the pictures that were most important to us happened at the right time.
During the reception, she worked with me, my husband, and our bridal party for all the traditional things (cake cutting, car decorating, etc.) She bagged up 2 sets of all the food and cake we had and put it in our car for us so we could eat at the hotel afterwards. She worked with our families to figure out what needed to go with whom. And, Kristen drove her personal car to our hotel to give us our cross we used as an alter decoration that someone forgot. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND the call of duty for that one!
If Kristen wasn't available to answer an email, someone (usually Hunter) would email me back on her behalf that day. It was so nice to get a response of "she'll touch base with you tomorrow" instead of no response at all. They really do make you feel like your wedding is THE ONLY wedding they care about; they make you feel special without ever making you ever feel like a nuisance.
As long as this review is, I could go ON and ON about how many positive experiences we had with The Terrace Club. As a bride who waited 30 years for the right man to come along, I wanted this one and only wedding day to be perfect, everything I dreamed it would be, and I whole-heartedly believe that that would not have been the case if we had chosen anyone other than The Terrace Club. But because of these ladies' dedication to their job, sweetness, professionalism, knowledge of the business, and attentiveness, it was literally the best, most perfect day of my life. I would recommend The Terrace Club over and over and over again!
My suggestion - If you're engaged and looking for a venue in the Austin area, PLEASE at least put them on your list of places to visit. Once you see how much they have to offer, and just how knowledgeable they are about what they do, you'll be sold, just like I was. And when the day you've been dreaming of goes perfectly, you'll be writing rave reviews about them just like me!

We absolutely loved having our wedding ceremony and reception at the Terrace Club. The quality and value of services their staff provides completely removed all the stress from us on the day of our wedding. All of our guests raved about how beautiful the indoor and outdoor areas of the venue was and how helpful, accommodating and professional the staff was. Kristen guided us through our walk thru, rehearsal, reception and exit with ease and complete professionalism. Everything about the venue made our wedding the memorable and beautiful event that it was, including the beautiful sunset, fantastic food, gorgeous decorations and helpful staff. I would definitely recommend them to anyone getting married in the Hill Country area!
Jessica
Wedding: 10/1/11
My husband and I were recently married at the Terrace Club (September 2011) and we could not have picked a better place! Going into the venue search, I had a few requirements.
First, I had to love the outdoor ceremony location because I really wanted an outdoor ceremony. Second, I didn't want to deal with renting things on my own so I wanted a place that was more inclusive. Finally, it had to fit within our budget. The Terrace Club really fit the bill.
The outdoor area for the ceremony is absolutely gorgeous with a breath taking view of the Texas Hill Country. The bride typically makes her grand entrance down the stairs of the Terrace Club which can be a little un-nerving but makes for fantastic photos.
If you have your wedding at the Terrace Club, you're basically hiring your own personal wedding coordinators, decorators and clean-up crew. They took care of EVERYTHING. Of course there are a few decorations that are extra (greenery outside, muslin swag draping the dance floor and stairs) but you know what the extras are before you ever sign the contract. They provide chargers, glassware, cake cutting service, champagne service, votive candles, vases, chandeliers, etc. They have a plethora of items to decorate with and are super creative if you're not.
The Terrace Club was also extremely reasonable. We had our wedding on the Sunday of labor day weekend. While most wedding venues were charging saturday rates for this sunday since it was a holiday, the Terrace Club charged us Sunday rates which is a HUGE perk. Having our wedding on a Sunday saved us a great deal. The rates for a wedding on a non-Sunday are also extremely reasonable when comparing with other wedding venues.
Outside of my venue requirements, the Terrace club exceeded every expectation I had on the day of our wedding. Kristen was so attentive to everything my husband or I needed. She set up our timeline and followed it spot on and made sure that we were in the right places at the right time. At the end of the night, she packed our getaway car with a bottle of champagne, one of each entree that we had for our wedding, and cake balls (we had cake balls instead of cake at our wedding). This little care package was perfect! It really showed that they were focused on the little details as well as the big.
After our wedding was over, my mom was prepared to stick around for another hour to help clean-up and pack up a few of the items we brought ourselves. She later told me that by the time she had changed out of her dress into comfortable cleaning clothes, Kristen already had everything packed up and ready to put into the car. My mom was so thankful and so impressed!
My family and friends also commented on how organized Kristen and Hunter were as well as how beautiful the venue was. My dad even wrote Kristen a thank you note while we were on our honeymoon.
The only downside of the Terrace Club is the location - it is a drive from Austin, but they now have a hotel open within walking distance that makes it much easier. I cannot say enough good things about the Terrace Club and their staff. Our wedding was absolutely beautiful and stress free. Kristen and Hunter are amazing. I would without a doubt recommend the Terrace Club to any bride!

I recommend the Terrace Club to any bride that wants a hassle-free, magical day! I could not believe how smoothly the wedding went from start to finish. The Terrace Club staff was knowledgeable and responsive whenever I had questions during the planning phase, and they made every detail come to life! They made it so easy. I just went in for one consultation, made a few decisions and they took it from there. I didn't have to lift a finger, and neither did my friends or family. We just enjoyed the ride! The view was beautiful, the decorations were elegant, the food was delicious (and they made me sit down to eat, which was awesome!), and the party was perfection! The Terrace Club made my big day stress-free and lovely all the way.

Testimonial for The Terrace Club:
Our daughter, Courtney, was married there on August 13, 2011. I cannot say enough nice things about the facility and the staff.
From the day we took a tour and reserved the date, we were always pleased. Hunter and Kristin could not have been more accommodating or professional. They respected and incorporated Courtney’s every wish to make this the most special day of her life. Two days in advance we went to deliver favors/bridal portrait and the tables/chairs were already done! The décor was impeccable and the whole affair could not have been better. We did not have to worry about a thing and it all went off smoothly, efficiently and most of all, beautifully!
Our daughter said it was the best night of her life. Our hats off to The Terrace Club for making her dream come true.
They are the BEST!

I am soooo happy that I had my wedding at the Terrace Club; I can't imagine anything I would have done differently!! I am not very good at planning so having Hunter help with every single detail of the wedding was absolutely fantastic. She was always available when I was freaking out about insignificant details of the wedding. She always responded in a timely manner whether I contacted her by email, phone, or text messaging. We had as many meetings as I needed to feel comfortable and she made sure that I was satisfied with everything for the reception and the ceremony. I love the location of the venue because it is just a gorgeous scenery perfect for romantic wedding pictures. At first I was afraid that my guests would think that it is a bit far from Austin but once they arrived to the Terrace Club, they were absolutely blown away by the venue and told me that it was well worth the trip out to Dripping Springs. If you book the Terrace Club for your wedding, they provide so many decorations for the reception that it ends up saving a lot of money. The other aspect that I liked is that we were free to bring our own alcohol and they would provide all the mixes and chasers, another money-saver!! And they have a margarita/daiquiri machine! We had an open bar but ended up not spending a lot at all on beer and liquor thanks to the Terrace Club. Furthermore, we were able to take home whatever alcohol was left over!! The food is provided by a catering company affiliated with the Terrace Club that you have to use. They might be pricier than other caterers but you save so much money at the Terrace Club that you don't even realize it. They are very accommodating with setting up tastings as well as vegetarian guests. My guests thought the food was amazing! Finally, the last thing I will rave about is the way that Hunter and Ashley are just there for you during your special day. From the time that I stepped onto the property on the day of my wedding until the time I left in the limousine at the end of the night, I always felt that someone was watching and making sure everything was going alright. If I had any concern, I could walk right up to one of them and they would take care of it immediately. They also came to me frequently to check-up and make sure I didn't need anything else. Towards the end of the night, one of the guests stepped on my dress and part of the bustle came undone but Ashley was right there and pinned it back up with safety pins. I would have cried otherwise! Then, when we got into our limousine, we had all of our personal stuff that Ashley had made sure would find their way into our getaway car as well as boxes of food, from appetizers to entrees to our wedding cake. It was perfect, since we didn't have time to eat very much between all the mingling and the dancing. I highly highly recommend the Terrace Club if you are planning your wedding. You will not be disappointed!!!

I could not have asked for a better venue! The ladies at this venue really know what they are doing and they take care of any and all details that you can imagine. I was planned my wedding from out of state and I even had to move the date...they were very flexible in every part of my wedding process, given our situation. The ladies who work here have an amazing eye for detail and made my day come together beautifully. They did all the decorations (BEAUTIFUL!!) and took care of all the food (DELICIOUS!!) and took care of every detail. They made sure we were served first at dinner (plentiful) and made sure we had a drink in our hand at all times, bustled my dress, let us know what our timeline was every step of the way..i could go on and on about the small things that made it so nice. My guests even raved about how awesome the coordination of the wedding was. I could not say enough about how happy I am my husband and are that we chose this beautiful venue to have our wedding..they sure made it more memorable than we could have imagined! I also chose my photographer and DJ through their recommendations and all-in-all it was an incredible stress-free experience!! I highly recommend you checking out this venue, you will be glad you did.

Wedding: 10/16/10
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! I just had my wedding at the Terrace Club around 2 weeks ago and I can't say enough good things about them! Ashley was my coordinator and Kristen also helped out as well. I live in Dallas and they really made planning a wedding from a distance the easiest thing ever. They were super responsive to all my emails and were really good about working with my Austin visits to make sure that the venue was available to me. They have a TON of decor items (think iron tree with crystals, iron chandeliers with crystals, large pillar candle sticks, centerpieces, etc.) that you can use that are included in the price. This really helped compliment and fill out the decorations that I had brought in and everywhere you looked you saw something beautiful. All of our guests kept telling us that with the pretty decor and the huge windows overlooking hill country it was one of the prettiest wedding's they'd attended. The food we had was also excellent. Pecan crusted chicken and gorgonzola beef medallions, YUM! I have to admit though, my favorite part was that I didn't have to worry about a single thing on my rehearsal or my wedding day. I felt really comfortable that Ashley and Kristen had everything under control. The vendors were coordinated and directed, guests knew where to go and what to do once they were there, the evening flowed perfectly with them helping me remember when to cut the cake, have dances, do speeches, etc. I really couldn't have wished for a better wedding day! Also, I've had several friends get married in Austin lately, and I have to say, bang for your buck is at a premium here. You can bring in your own alcohol which saves you a ton and they have so many decor items, it really cuts down on florist and decoration budgets as well.
I would completely and wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone who would like a beautiful and stress free day!!
