This venue has it all! Its in the beautiful Texas Hill Country! It has a gorgeous guest house with separate area for the groom! The Bridal suite was fabulous! The staff were absol...
utely amazing!
La Estancia Bella and the management there is beautiful, warm, welcoming, polished, and functions with integrity and openness that is hard to find. I’m so grateful after months of ...
research that this place and its team helped make my dreams come true! Very responsive, supportive, hard-working, dedicated and fun people made the experience top notch. Having worked with multiple venues in Austin and all over Texas for other events, La Estancia Bella takes the cake and goes above and beyond. Can’t recommend highly enough!!
Hands Down Amazing! The second we walked into La Estancia Bella, we knew it was where we would get married. The aesthetics and charm of the space are unlike any other…The venue is ...
beautiful and the staff is exceptional, Lauren outdid herself for our wedding! She always made sure that we had everything we needed and was very attentive to detail! We planned to have a lovely spring wedding ceremony outside on the gorgeous wedding platform, unfortunately for us it poured rain all day, but Lauren did not miss a beat, she converted a part of the reception space to a perfect ceremony area where the guests (and my husband and I) could look out at the beautiful longhorns in the field in front us, it turned into a very memorable experience. We also stayed on the property for the entire weekend to take advantage of the awesome lodging with friends and family. We had our reception on Friday night at one of the homes and it was perfect. We would recommend La Estancia Bella for any wedding or event…you won’t be disappointed!! My only regret is that I did not write this review sooner!
This was the prettiest place I have ever seen. So accommodating. It had everything and more . I highly recommend and will be back for sure

La Estancia Bella is a dream!! I fell in the love with the property the moment I saw it. Lauren is also the best! We got married during the pandemic and Lauren made sure to make ou...
r day feel just as amazing as it would have been originally. She was there to help my family with all of our decorating needs and the day of to help make sure everything went smoothly. Everything just started to fall into place when I met Lauren, she made my wedding planning go smoothly, and was there to answer my countless questions. I’m an animal lover so when they brought the Longhorns and donkeys up during our ceremony and I was just in awe! This is definitely the venue for you if you’re looking for a wedding with a country vibe, great atmosphere, and an amazing staff to help make your day perfect!
From the moment we visited La Estancia Bella, we immediately fell in love with the gorgeous property and venue and knew we had to have our wedding there. Then we began talking with...
Lauren and became instant friends! She created a package for us that helped bring the vision of our wedding to life. We knew we could trust her with everything. During the process, we were dealing with a pandemic which proved to be very challenging, but no matter what, Lauren was always there to talk through things with us and go above and beyond to support us in whatever way we needed. She had so many great recommendations for us and guided us through with everything we needed to know. When the big weekend came, Lauren met and exceeded all our expectations! She brought our vision to life and made it more beautiful than we could ever have imagined! She took care of everything that needed to be done so that we didn't have to worry or stress and didn't have to lift a finger. She made sure the the entire weekend was a safe, COVID- free environment for all in attendance. The ranch house and the tree house were set up perfectly for our wedding party to stay and to get ready in. It's such a spacious, gorgeous and exceptionally clean house! All of our guests raved about the grandiose reception hall, it is breathtaking! It has so much space and is set up so beautifully. During the ceremony, Lauren had the longhorns in site right behind us and it set a gorgeous scene. I couldn't imagine having our wedding anywhere else. We can't thank Lauren enough for letting us stay the weekend with our loved ones and making it the best weekend ever!
La Estancia Bella is the perfect setting to have a special celebration. We had a celebration of life here for my husband. The owners, Lauren and Mari, were exceptional in assistin...
g and providing everything we needed. The ranch is so beautiful with many longhorns on the property. The outdoor gazebo and surrounding trees canopy and give shade so that even in August we were comfortable. The indoor reception hall was welcoming with some private areas for immediate family. Lauren and Mari have an obvious passion to make you and your guests feel welcome. I highly recommend La Estancia Bella to anyone looking for a top notch venue!

nning manicured outdoor wedding setting including longhorn cattle, spectacular accommodations for indoors weddings and receptions, well just everything to fulfill one’s dreams. Lauren, and you just can’t anyone better, was our onsite and wedding coordinator. With the “Rona” dates were changed, guests decreased from 125 to an intimate family gathering, vendors were rescheduled more than once and Lauren was calm and flexible as the navigation of unexpected expectations challenged the HAPPY COUPLE! We partied loud and late like rock stars on the porch and had one gloriously unforgettable wedding weekend!!!
Although I was only the best man, this wedding venue was awesome! Would highly recommend it to anyone looking!
Words cannot express how much we love Lauren and her team. We actually visited THREE times before deciding to book them, even though we knew after the first time we were sold. We j...
ust loved hanging out with these people; they treated us like family. Lauren’s attention to detail made the entire wedding planning process stress free and to this day we still talk about how there is not a single thing we would have changed. So grateful to know these folks, I would recommend them to anyone.

have seen their faces as they arrived. Wow! Lauren and the crew were so friendly (we love them!!), available for all inquiry and help and extremely professional. I cannot recommend highly enough. We had the rehearsal dinner on the big porch (what a beautiful evening), the wedding in the Gazebo, and the reception in the chic barn. It was all glorious. They worked well with the caterer and bartender vendors and the whole weekend was a smash success, making memories to last a lifetime! Thank you!!
It was a great experience in the wild landscape of Texas. First time for me exploring the state and honestly this residence encompasses the beauty and history of Texas.
Such an amazing and breathtaking place to celebrate your unique occasion. The staff was incredible, and the owners went far beyond anything we could have imagined. I would recomm...

come right up to the reception hall. The staff was excellent and made our dreams a reality. One of my favorite thing was the fact that it was far enough from the city that you aren't bothered by the sounds of cars. The team at La Estancia Bella is truly wonderful and we would recommend them to anyone wanting that fairy tale wedding
Lauren and her family simply made our daughter's wedding spectacular! The venue was amazing and the best wedding ever!

his venue! While the wedding would have been wonderful all on its own, the beauty of the location and the attention to detail from the mother/daughter family team made it even more incredible than we imagined. There was never a moment we didn’t know what to do or where to be for the wedding and the reception was nothing but fun. Everything was right where it should be and when! Probably a first in my personal history of weddings. Thank you guys so much for making my sisters wedding a dream come true!
If I could only use one word to describe this venue it would be OUTSTANDING. From the appearance to the service, we are extremely blessed to have been married here. Lauren is pheno...

I cannot rave enough and we were showered with compliments by all our guests. Thank you, La Estancia Bella, for setting the tone of excellence and making this a day we’ll remember the rest of our lives.

Outstanding venue! Our wedding went smoothly and the scenery made our wedding! Highly recommend
La Estancia Bella is a beautiful rustic ranch style wedding venue in the rolling hills of Wimberley, TX. They have a amazing reception venue full of very unique natural wood archit...
ecture. The venue has big rooms and lofts to accommodate an entire wedding party, big or small. They even have big family of longhorns and some cute little donkeys! The entire ranch has great big shade trees and small private seating areas scattered all around the garden full of natural and potted plants and flowers. The view is simply breath taking. I could not get my spot reserved quick enough! Lauren is amazing and she is so thoughtful and the best at what she does. If you don't get married here, you are missing out!
I can't say enough about La Estancia! This place is beautiful! The owner Lauren is so easy to work with. My bride had a gorgeous house to get ready the night before and the day of....
Me and the guys had a place to hang out and get dressed in this beautifully made barn venue. Speaking of the barn... This picturesque barn is exactly like the picture you see on the website. There was plenty of space for dining, dancing, a band and a bar. Since our wedding, Lauren has added more to this charming location and I wish I could relive our night just to experience all the new wonderful things! I highly recommend La Estancia Bella! Oh and there is a winery right next door! What's not to love!
This place is incredible! I proposed to Lauren (La Estancia Bella’s Venue Manager) about a year before we got married and we had toured venues searching for the perfect place! Not...
hing felt quite right and we thought, “Let’s get married at the ranch and do a simple wedding!” We’ll let me tell you there was nothing simple about it! We ended up designing and building a venue in a short 4 1/2 months! Our wedding was the first wedding that ever took place at La Estancia Bella (aside from the arranged marriage of the two Donkey pets we have) LOL There couldn’t have been a better place to throw the party of our lives! Our wedding was absolutely amazing, but what’s even more special is to be a part of the couples weddings who continue to choose to get married there as well! I feel proud and honored to be a part of what La Estancia Bella has become... AMAZING!!! We look forward to welcoming all the future couples to the family and hope you love it as much as we do!
The Owners are a joy to work with and will do everything they can to make your event special. And the place is beautiful with a great house, outdoor areas and big pavilion!
Everything about the venue was lovely and the service provided exceeded our expectations! The landscaping and rooms were gorgeous as well. We captured beautiful and memorable famil...

Incredible wedding venue with an equally amazing owner. As a full time wedding DJ I have been to my share of venues in Texas and have a good feel for what works and doesn’t work we...
ll at a venue.
This venue is what I like to call elegantly rustic. You can easily dress it up if your vibe and vision is elegance. If your vibe is more rustic then this venue has something for you too with all of the beautiful wood complimenting the space.
There’s space upstairs for additional seating. With the acoustics in the building, guests never feel disconnected from the action. They can clearly hear and be a part of the event and feel like VIPs or rock stars sitting on the second level.
I could go on and on about the venue but what fun is a venue if you don’t have the support and attention to detail from the owners. Lauren is fully committed to making sure the couple, their guests and vendors all feel like they’re at home. Lauren was absolutely a joy to work with. The moment you meet with her you’ll want to book.
I cannot recommend this venue and Lauren high enough. Why are you still reading this? It’s time to book!
We hosted a wedding last weekend for 200 people and the staff of La Estancia Bella did a perfect job. The exceptional service started 5 months earlier when we chose the venue. Laur...
en was “on it” and never slowed down. I highly recommend La Estancia Bella and its staff. They provide lots of flexibility and also have 1st class vendors to recommend if you don’t know where to start. They can accommodate indoor or outdoor ceremonies. The reception hall is new, beautiful and grand.
