I love Prospect House! It is such a fabulous venue in hill country Texas and Kathryn and Erich are a delight to work with. The space itself is beautiful, modern, and minimalist. I love that the space operates as a blank slate that you can do an...
ything with, but also that you do not have to go over the top to transform the space because of the beauty in its design and clean lines. From our first venue tour to the venue walkthrough, rehearsal, and wedding day, we had wonderful experiences working with Erich and Kathryn. They are attentive, communicative, great at providing recommendations, and overall so helpful and flexible. The ceremony frame, bud wall and weather vane are just a few of my favorite elements of the space. Not to mention that the flow of the event from the outdoor ceremony to cocktail hour in the breezeway to the reception and party in the main hall works so well. I feel so lucky that we were able to get married at Prospect House and would absolutely recommend it!
Prospect House was a unique wedding venue that blended the charm of Hill Country with a modern, sleek interior. After discussing the creative vision of the property with Erich, we knew that Prospect House would be the right venue for us. The op...
en air lay-out of the entry room allowed for a pleasant breeze during our event, and the white walls served as a beautiful canvas for our colorful decorations and lighting. Erich and Kathering made us feel like family. We would definitely recommend Prospect House!
Oh, this venue and this team!!! We knew that Prospect House was the most beautiful setting for our wedding when we chose it because of how much thought went into the building design and layout. What we didn’t know how valuable Erich and Kathryn...
would be in our wedding planning process. They answered every single one of my multiple, annoying questions throughout the whole process promptly and easily. Whether it involved sound systems, vendor recommendations, load-in/load-out times, they had an answer and then some. We are an out-of-town couple, but they easily accommodated our schedule to make sure we could have access to the venue anytime we were in the area and needed to tour the space or do a walk-through with our planner. They went out of their way to allow us to drop off some items to the venue early, and were available and willing to help with every detail. Our wedding wouldn’t have been nearly as successful if we had it anywhere else. So thankful for Kathryn, Erich, and Prospect House!
This is the perfect venue for any couple, but as two architects we really appreciated having a space specifically designed for a wedding. Indoor and outdoor ceremony locations and bars, rooms to get ready in, private restroom stalls, and a gor...
geous reception hall. Every angle was the perfect backdrop for our pictures.
This venue was everything that my husband and I had dreamed of - chic, contemporary, simple, and elegant. Working with Erik and the team at Prospect House made us feel comfortable and excited about having our wedding at their venue. They are so...
laid back and want nothing more than to ensure your day is everything that you are looking for. We couldn't ask for anything better!
The Prospect House was a no-brainer when it came to our wedding venue. It was so beautiful, so elegant, and perfect for any type of wedding theme! Plus the owners, Kathryn and Erich, are the sweetest couple, and the most understanding business ...
owners. They worked with us with changing our date due to COVID, and all communication was fast, friendly, and helpful! The reason for the three star review is because their venue manager was so outlandishly rude to everyone. She came in four hours before the wedding, yelled at my bridesmaids, myself, and my groom for no reason. Then didn’t stop yelling at us the entire night. She was condescending, pushy, and made me very uncomfortable. Every person she came in contact with, excluding the florist, had a terrible interaction with her and complained to me about her. I would recommend this venue, but ask to interact with the owners only, not the manager.
Prospect House is fabulous! I recommend this venue to all of my clients and love working in this space. It's beautifully designed, decorated and managed.
The owners and staff are all lovely and events here are always a breeze. Simply the be...
st place!
Ok seriously, book the Prospect House for your wedding. Aside from how beautiful the venue is, the owners are the kindest people ever. Throughout the whole wedding planning process we heard over and over "Kathryn and Erich are the best"- which ...
we took as a really good sign. But when COVID struck we were really nervous about the possibility of having to reschedule. After talking to Erich on the phone we were so at ease and thankful we chose the Prospect House! They were SO supportive and accommodating. They never tried to pressure us into a decision and patiently answered all of our questions. It was such a relief that we booked with people who treated us like human beings instead of customers! Aside from that the venue was perfect for our wedding and everyone who attended was in awe of it. Book the Prospect House!
Just had our event at this fabulous venue on Oct 23, 2020. A light and bright, modern and minimal, indoor/outdoor, well-designed and user-friendly space. Five guest bathrooms, well-appointed bridal and groomsmen's ready rooms, a welcoming ...
breezeway with built-in bar to welcome your guests, adequate parking, and a large kitchen and back entrance for vendors, kept things running smoothly. Ceremony space, bar space and banquet hall are separate spaces but flow nicely together in a way that serves guests wanting to get away from the band's volume or step into a space that is cooler or warmer. The bride and groom (and all of us) were very pleased with our event. Can't wait to get our pictures and appreciate the beauty of the setting as it serves as a backdrop for the bridal party. 100% recommend.
When my daughter got engaged last November, we looked at about 8 venues in the greater Austin area. None of the other venues we toured had "it" - that wow factor she was looking for.
When we came to Prospect House, she (and I) knew before w...
e even walked in the door that it would be perfect. Prospect is simple, modern and uses all of the natural beauty and light to its best advantage. Prospect provides nice chairs, tables (rounds, rectangles and cocktail height) and a built in bar. The outdoor space is amazing, and the whole venue is a perfect backdrop for any type of decor. It's one of those places where it's even more striking in person than in the photos.
All of the other vendors we lined up (photographer, videographer, catering, floral, wedding planner, DJ) raved about how Prospect House is one of their favorite venues. The owners were very intentional and thoughtful to create a place that worked ideally for customers and vendors.
However, with Covid, we were not able to hold the wedding as planned. Even so, Prospect's owners, Kathryn and Erich, were wonderful to work with and very understanding and flexible throughout the whole situation.
I highly recommend Prospect House - it's a beautiful venue with great service the whole way through.
This venue was so dreamy! It was beyond perfect for our special day!
You've seen the photos, so you already know this venue is completely unique and breathtaking. But I wanted to write a review about the people behind the venue, because they're just as important. If you'd like to know something about the couple ...
behind Prospect House, ask Kathryn or Erich about how the venue came to be. Every step of the way, these two have bent over backward to make sure we had everything we needed to put on a spectacular wedding with details that were completely new and unique. Some of our ideas required creativity and openness from our venue, and I doubt the more traditional or cookie-cutter venues would have been interested in making it happen. But when we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID-19, that's when we saw the biggest benefit to going with Prospect House. We still have a wedding because of Kathryn and Erich, and had we chosen our runner-up venue, we would not have been so lucky. These guys are what Austin is truly about, and you will be glad you chose something a little different.
My wife Courtney and I were married at Prospect House this last October and we could not be happier with how everything turned out.
The venue is very unique and has a clean minimalistic style but still has a very "Texas" feel. And the hill co...
untry setting is particularly beautiful when the sun starts to set.
The two owners Kathryn and Erich could not have been easier to work with. They gave us all of the information we needed and were always very quick to respond when we had questions. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their business and in their property.
We knew right away this was going to be our venue, it was absolutely the easiest decision we made.
Thanks again Kathryn and Erich!
The moment we visited Prospect House, we knew we wanted to have our wedding at this venue. As a 'blank canvas' of sorts, it was the perfect size for our mid-sized gathering (~120 people), and it really fit our minimalist style, giving us the op...
portunity to decorate only what we wanted to, within our allotted budget. And Erich and Kathryn were absolutely amazing to work with throughout the entire process! They answered all of our (many) questions up front, allowed us to visit the venue multiple times, and were so flexible in how we decorated and used the space.
I also want to note that with Texas’ unpredictable storm patterns, the fact that Prospect House has both indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces is such a stress-reliever. On the day of our wedding, we were caught off-guard by a lot of morning and afternoon sun (as we were expecting rain storms). While many vendors require setup details to be finalized within 24 hours of the ceremony, Erich's team gave us ample time to decide whether to setup the indoor or outdoor ceremony space on the day of our wedding. Within a few hours of the ceremony, we ultimately decided indoor would be safer, and the well-known bud vase wall served as a gorgeous backdrop for our nuptials. And good thing - because the rains and all the thunder came right before we said our "I Do's"!
Wow, don't even know where to begin.
Once my fiancé and I were engaged it was either Prospect house or we were eloping. We walked in the venue a week after our engagement and knew it was the place for us. From start to finish Erich & Kathryn...
were super awesome!
The venue speaks for itself. The natural light, the texture from the exterior, the shadows coming in when the sun is setting. All out of a fairytale. We had our fairytale wedding & couldn't have asked for anything more from that perfect day.
As a wedding photographer, I absolutely love shooting at Prospect House! From the ownership to the incredible property, working here is SO dang smooth and beautiful. They take care of my couples and can we talk about all the white and mid-centu...
ry vibes?! It's a dream. I wish I could shoot here every wedding. Book this venue: you won't regret it. - Paige Vaughn Photo
Prospect House is a gorgeous space run by good people. Once we saw photos, we knew this is where we wanted to get married: simple, modern, elegant. The indoor space was PERFECT for our winter wedding. We planned our wedding completely from over...
seas, which at first felt overwhelming, but Kathryn and Erich really made the extra effort to answer all of our questions and even gave us a FaceTime tour of the space. They were extremely prompt and professional with their communication and always made it clear that they understood how important everything was to us. We couldn't be happier that we picked Prospect House.
The venue is minimalistic and modern. Prospect House is all white - a blank slate-. This allows individuals to decorate the venue however they would like. The architectural elements allow beautiful photos to be taken (ceremony arbor, windows, b...
ud vase wall, doors, etc.) I would highly recommend this venue to everyone. Kathryn and Erich are delightful individuals and are extremely easy to work with. They are both understanding and accommodating.
One word of advice though! The day I had my wedding, the wind was extremely strong and knocked down my signs in the breezeway (they were in glass picture frames) and they broke. I would recommend having signs printed off and placed on a matte board, instead of a glass frame.
Loved everything about this venue!
I had my dream wedding thanks in part to The Prospect House being the most beautiful wedding venue in Texas.
My photos have all turned out absolutely perfect with this venue as my backdrop. The venue holds 170 people very comfortably. Everyon...
e was blown away with the architecture and details of this venue.
This place will always have the most special place in my heart.
As one of the only non-barn options in the Dripping Springs area, my husband and I fell in love with this place as soon as we walked in. I could not be happier with this venue. It is simple, elegant, and just beautiful. It was perfect for my we...
dding size of 150. The owners are super nice, and really laid back. They let you use any vendors you want (they have to approve them but I had no issues) to really make your day exactly what you envision. Literally, I don't think you can find a more beautiful venue in the Austin area.
This was the venue of OUR DREAMS! My husband is an architect, so as soon as I showed him Prospect House he was dead-set on us getting married there- and we wouldn't have had it any other way! Erich was so easy to work with and always answered m...
y (MANY) questions. The venue itself is so breathtaking, that we needed very few decorations. But it also provided us with a great canvas to express ourselves as a couple. From the wind vane, to the flower wall, to that ALTAR(!!!)- everything was absolutely beautiful and PERFECT for us on our wedding day. There are also unlimited possibilities for setting up the reception hall- there were so many ideas we loved! A week or two before the wedding we told Erich how we were thinking of setting up the tables and we were surprised to see them already set up when we arrived. The dressing rooms were also chic and comfortable for us as we got ready. Our guests complimented the space all night and our photos look AMAZING! The venue and the grounds lend to so many photo opportunities- everything is absolutely gorgeous. GET MARRIED HERE!!
We looooved getting married at Prospect House! As many have pointed out, there's really nothing else like it in the area. The space is incredible and our wedding was so fun. Kathryn and Erich were really easy to work with and were super respons...
ive to our many, many questions during the planning process. A few things to note:
-We got married on a very hot day in early June and the AC in the reception hall was not great. We specifically chose a venue with an indoor reception area to keep guests cool and it was pretty warm the whole evening.
-There were a few things wrong when we arrived (no soap in the bathrooms, clogged sink in the larger getting ready room) and there didn't seem to be anyone to direct our questions to onsite. There is also no dumpster onsite so make sure your caterer (or someone else) is able to haul off trash.
-There were wasps all around the outdoor ceremony area and we couldn't go into the field for pictures because of rattle snakes! The perils of a partially outdoor venue outside the city in the summertime, but just something to consider when you're picking your wedding date.
None of these things are the end of the world, but considering the amount you pay for the venue I thought they were worth mentioning. But really, there's nowhere else I could imagine getting married. It is so gorgeous and they've put a lot of thought into how to make the space work for events of many sizes.
We had both our ceremony & reception at Prospect House in June. The venue was stunning and the venue owners were laid back for a majority of the time leading up to the wedding day. However, there were a handful of miscommunications on the weddi...
ng day & the weeks following. The Air-Conditioner would not cool the reception area down to any temperature below 80 degrees (in the middle of the summer heat), there was no on-site staff available to help with day-of venue-related issues, there was miscommunication regarding chair set up, and they were unkind at the end of the evening due to another miscommunication, which they apologized for the following day. Overall, the venue is amazing, but a few kinks need to be worked out on the business side of things -- these were issues no one wants to have to deal with on the most important day of their life. I'm not sure if the expense of the venue equaled the quality of service provided. Our guests had a great time, but there was definitely an added level of stress throughout the day and the days following. Overall, the venue is amazing, but as an event planner myself, there are some things that need to be worked out on the business side of things -- these were issues no one wants to have to deal with on their wedding day & the first couple weeks of their marriage. Based on the other venues I've worked with, I'm not sure if the expense of the venue equaled the quality of customer service provided.
What a gorgeous venue! My daughter had a New Year's Eve 2017 wedding and it was gorgeous ! The architectural lines are exquisite and makes it very different from any other place! The owners and their team were terrific ! We had an unheard of ...
snow towards the end of the reception and it made for even more special moments and fabulous pictures. Thank you!
Prospect House is stunning!!! I knew as soon as we took the tour that this would be the place we would get married. Our pictures turned out beautifully and we received so many compliments from our guests (and vendors)! Erich and Kathryn are won...
derful and made the whole process simple and enjoyable. Thank you both!
This venue is a DREAM. Y'all....I'm basically obsessed with this venue. It's GORGEOUS! It's a beautiful, modern, clean space that is completely different from everything else out in the Hill Country. On top of that, the owners are the sweetest ...
people of all time and super easy to work with! The venue itself also has a lot of unique features included in the rental price that other venues would charge you extra for! This place is absolutely stunning and I had the best day of my life getting married in such a magical place!
We had our wedding there in December 2016. Of course I'm biased now, but there is not a more beautiful hill country venue. Kathryn and Erich are a joy to work with, and have put so much thought into every little detail with the space and the ae...
sthetic. It was so carefully designed from the perspective of someone who is getting married, vs. a building that was turned into a venue. We wanted a hill country wedding but weren't going for a rustic or country feel, so contemporary design set against the hill country landscape was perfect. The thoughtful design came in handy because there was 100% chance of rain the week of our wedding. We didn't have to fuss or worry about renting a tent, or purchasing extra decor as the flower wall in the breezeway makes for the perfect backdrop for an indoor wedding. They also provide you with all the chairs and tables, cocktail tables, and space heaters, when other venues charge per chair. The getting ready suites for bride and groom are spacious, chic, and comfortable. Prospect House is a gorgeous space with barely any or a lot of decor, has fantastic lighting, and magical touches such as the weather vane in the center of the reception hall. Our guests were blown away with how beautiful and magical the whole night was. Rain or shine, Prospect House is THE wedding venue if you're looking for a hill country wedding. Not only is it beautiful, magical, and all the things a bride could want, but by design the space flows and is super practical! We feel so lucky to have been married here.
Our wedding at the Prospect House was amazing. The space is absolutely breathtaking and the outdoor ceremony space is what wedding dreams are made of. The space is striking and beautiful and can exist on its own without much decor... but uni...
que florals and a few small details can make MAGIC happen. Beyond the most beautiful wedding ever, The Prospect House is flexible, easy to work with, transparent, and the owners are SUPER nice. They make wedding planning a breeze and they are responsive, available, and accommodating. Seriously, can not recommend The Prospect House enough.
My husband and I got married November 2016 at the Prospect House. This venue is what made our wedding unique and unforgettable. Choosing the right venue was the most important factor for my husband and I, and I am SO glad we came across this pl...
ace. We wanted something a bit more industrial and modern than your typical rustic-chic texas venue. Prospect house is modern without feeling stuffy, and breathtaking on its own. The architecture allows couples to decorate as minimalistic or extravagant as you want, you really can't go wrong in this place. Erich the owner was SO accommodating and willing to help throughout the whole planning process. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or more beautiful place. Go see it in person, it will blow you away!
Trying to find a venue in Texas that appreciates the beauty of the countryside, but doesn't look like a barn is difficult to find. It is every modern/designer/minimalist's dream venue and we are happy that we got to spend the happiest day of ou...
r lives there. Erich and his staff were the nicest people you could ask to work with - always responsive and accommodating. I would this venue long before construction was done (nor was I engaged) but months later, when I finally had that ring on my finger, we came straight to PH and booked within the week. Everything came together like a dream and we couldn't be happier.
Booked our Nov 7 wedding here long before the construction was done but had the most pleasant time working with Erich! Guests loved everything about the venue and despite morning rain and a coldfront we were able to do our ceremony outdoors. Th...
is venue was built to be a wedding venue first (not a church/barn/hall) and so many thoughtful amenities are built in. Photos of our décor and fun are on Instagram at #beallsaxtonmerger
My wife and I booked with Prospect House just as construction was getting started. As soon as we saw the renderings of the venue, we immediately knew that this was where we wanted to get married. It's a super trendy, modern barn setting unlike ...
anything I've ever seen. This was the first venue I viewed before browsing around at the other Dripping Springs locations and later out in Napa Valley. Prospect House outshined them all without even being completely built! To be honest, I actually booked this venue before my wife even had a chance to see it. A month after saying our I do's, she still reminds me how perfect the choice was.
All of our of guests loved the portrait frame in the ceremony space and the floral decorations we had on the decoration wall. The venue space really speaks for itself with the modern and industrial architecture. You could decorate with as much or as little as you want and the space still looks gorgeous. The layout of the venue is absolutely perfect for weddings because the breezeway is so easily accessible from the ceremony space and the reception hall. The transition from the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to the reception was absolutely seamless.
The owners, Kathryn and Erich, were amazing to work with. With our constant barrage of random questions, they answered each as if it was our first. They were both easily accessible on all days throughout the week and were very responsive. We can't thank them enough for their support during our planning stages. We're just so grateful that they made their vision of an event space into a reality because the venue ended up being the perfect setting for our style.
Prospect House is a DREAM. I was married here at the end of May and this venue truly embodied my husband and I's personalities perfectly. We were dying to find a venue in the hill country that was more modern and sleek. We toured so many popula...
r venues, and none compared. Prospect House, though modern, has the most warm and welcoming feel. Not to mention, the owners, Erich and Kathryn, are the two nicest people you'll ever meet. They are so kind and accommodating. Any time I sent Erich an email with a question, he would answer in less than an hour. They are wonderful and treat you like family. Our wedding here was stunning, all of my guests raved about all the unique features Prospect House offers. I could not be happier about my entire experience with Prospect House!! My husband and I both were proud to be married in such a beautiful and unique space.
I LOVE PROSPECT HOUSE! I hope I know more people who get married here in the future so I can keep coming back to this gorgeous venue. We toured this venue when it wasn't completely finished, but I knew it would be amazing and it definitely is. ...
I'm so happy we got married there. Kathryn and Erich are amazing and so helpful throughout the process - great people to work with! The venue itself is kind of like... Texas dance hall meets art gallery? The space is so simple and beautiful and you can do so so many different things with it. We had a lot of fun decorating the space for the day (I DIY'ed nearly everything) and it turned out great! I'm so glad a space like Prospect House exists among the sea of shabby chic and country western in the Hill Country, and just in time to get married there!
We booked our wedding at Prospect House before it was built, and it is even more beautiful in person than in the architectural renderings. It looks like a contemporary barn on the outside, but inside it has a very modern gallery feel. There's a...
ton of natural light, and the selling point for us was the ceremony space. It was incredibly beautiful and our guests raved about it for weeks afterward! On top of all of that, the owners are incredibly nice and easy to work with- they helped make our wedding SO perfect!
I'm beyond excited to be the first bride to book at Prospect House, and I couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else. I've visited the site numerous times, and it's just beautiful. The landscape, the atmosphere, and the hill country setting...
is exactly what my fiancé and I want. And the owners are so quick to respond and so helpful - we've felt completely at ease with the entire process.
The building itself is going to be a beautiful, simple space with huge walls of windows to let in the natural light. We didn't want anything elaborate or ornate for our wedding - just a really clean, modern look, and Prospect House fits the bill perfectly. We'll get married outside (weather permitting!) so our guests can enjoy the landscape, and then we'll take full advantage of the beer garden before heading inside for dinner and dancing.
I can't recommend this venue highly enough. It's stunning and will soon be in high demand. I can't wait to get married there.
