- Haley IlseVenue Manager and Day-Of CoordinatorHi there, I’m Haley Sabrsula Ilse. Lover of the color pink, Taylor Swift, and of course - weddings! I’m from the small town of El Campo, TX - just outside of Wharton. This is where I met my now husband, Kade. Together we graduated from Texas A&M, adopted two sassy cats named Olive and Gin, and had our dream wedding in February 2022! After assisting with weddings in Houston, College Station, and Austin, I’m so excited to be back near my hometown coordinating for The Orchard at Caney Creek. I can’t wait to help you + your favorite person with the big day!
- Lily GislerDay-Of CoordinatorHello! I am Lily! I am an Aggie Grad, podcast lover, and live with my husband on family property out in Victoria County. We have 2 perfect golden retrievers living the best country life. I am excited to make your wedding day uniquely special to you!
- Susan and Jeff SmithVenue OwnersJeff and Susan Smith met while working at restaurants in college (she at UT and he at Texas State). After finishing school, they married and moved to Houston to start their careers – his in accounting; hers in corporate communications. But the restaurant/hospitality industry kept calling and, over the years, the couple committed full-time to the industry, eventually owning and operating 6 restaurants and a full-service catering company. A wedding venue was the next logical step! The Smiths purchased the property that would become The Orchard at Caney Creek in 2009. After about 6 months of renovation, they hosted their first wedding here. Since that time they have continued to innovate, decorate, rebuild and renovate to improve the look and feel of what was, already, a truly beautiful setting. It has been an amazing experience for the whole family (three kids and three grandkids) and continues to be a labor of love.

The Orchard at Caney Creek is a beautiful venue with awesome staff! My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. We got tons of compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue is. We got married in April 2024, so the trees were blooming which added to the beauty, but we visited in the wintertime and the venue is also wonderful at that time of year. The food is really good, and the fact that we can bring our own alcohol (we brought beer and wine from HEB) definitely saved us some money on the bar tab. Working with Haley throughout the planning process made things so smooth, and it is part of the reason we really enjoyed wedding planning. The OCC provided a low-stress wedding planning experience which I didn’t originally think was possible, and I am very grateful for that! The location of the venue is great too; it’s very tranquil out in Wharton. We honestly don’t have any complaints, and I’d recommend this venue to anyone.

We got married at The Orchard one week ago, and it was the absolute best and most beautiful venue we could have chosen. To quote many of our guests, “This is the most beautiful venue we have ever been to”. Even for our June wedding, the tree cover kept the property relatively cool, despite the hot day. The food was absolutely amazing, and our day of coordinator (Lily) was an absolute miracle worker on our day. The list of recommended vendors they provided helped us create a perfect team to create our wedding day. I highly highly recommend booking a day of coordinator, and also reserving the houses for both the wedding night and having the rehearsal dinner on property. We loved having our wedding here, and can’t wait to have our professional photos back! Highly, HIGHLY recommend

We just had our wedding last month and we had the most amazing day! The grounds are so well kept and all the trees were in bloom it was gorgeous. The wedding coordinators were so helpful, kept everything on schedule and kept me calm. The packages are great they are very inclusive so that checked a lot of boxes for me and the price is not scary like other places. All of our guest raved about the food and how beautiful the place was. Highly recommend!!

Getting married at the Orchard at Caney Creek was the best decision I had made for my wedding. From the day my husband and I toured the venue, we knew it would be our first pick. The venue is located outside of major cities, and it is peaceful and beautiful. We especially loved that they were almost all-inclusive, and they had on-site accommodations, which made it easy for my husband and me to navigate and even gave us a moment to soak it all in before and after we got married. Haley, the venue manager, who was also my day-of coordinator, was excellent! Haley made wedding planning and wedding day seamless. Her work ethic is impeccable. She was helpful whenever I had questions or doubts and always responded promptly. Throughout the process, she wasn’t afraid to make suggestions; she was patient with me on moments when I was undecided, and she was flexible with changes. On the wedding day, her team was very professional; they worked seamlessly, and the quality of service my family and I received was great. It was so great that multiple guests kept asking how we found them.
For the soon-to-be brides, I highly recommend you book this venue; you will not be disappointed!

Absolutely the best place to get married, hands down. From the moment we stepped foot on the grounds, I knew this was our place. Everything was so perfect and a lot of that is owed to our coordinator, Haley. Haley provided such professionalism and kindness towards everyone she interacted with (even my Dad, and he's hard to impress, haha). I received so many praises about her and I am so extremely glad we had her as a day of coordinator. We took advantage of the "wedding eve" package as well as the "after party" and I have NO regrets. It was awesome to have that extra time with our guests while being taken care of by the staff at the Orchard. A big reason why we chose the Orchard is because of all of the options we had, everything was flexible and it did not feel cookie cutter. Communication was great, food was great, accommodations were great, basically everything was great. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone! Thank you to the Orchard for making our dream come true!

FLAWLESS. AMAZING. PERFECTION.
Those are how I would describe this venue, accommodations, and the team here at The Orchard at Caney Creek.
Haley was an absolute rockstar and saint during the entire wedding process. Her and the team were extremely available and would answer all of my random questions throughout the year leading up to our big day.
I couldn't have imagined a better place, or group of people to have on the Wedding day.
The day was calm, relaxing, and EVERYTHING (I seriously mean everything) was taken care of because of how present this team was.
Haley was my specific coordinator and she listened to my fiancé (now husband!!!) and I all year long about the vision we had for our big day, and she truly made it come to life.
I genuinely cannot recommend this venue and this team enough. If you're considering it, DO IT!
THANK YOU CANEY CREEK TEAM!!!!

We are so happy that we chose this venue. It was absolutely beautiful. All of the trees and the little pond were exactly the vibe we were going for. The reception room was perfect and the staff was amazing as well as the food! I think our favorite part other than the beautiful scenery was the on site lodging and the after party. I hope to come back one day for someone’s wedding.

I cannot say enough good things about The Orchard at Caney Creek! It was the very first venue my husband and I visited and we knew nothing else would compare. Aside from the beauty, the service was exceptional! Haley was our day of coordinator and she was AMAZING! Honestly, she deserves her own review and five stars. She made the day go by so smoothly and handled everything with such grace! We're still getting compliments from the venue, to the food, to the after party and we could not agree with everyone more! Our wedding day was perfect & we're sooo happy we came across The OCC on our search for wedding venues!

The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and incredible attention to detail. Every aspect of the property has been designed with weddings in mind, from the beautifully manicured gardens to the elegant reception hall. The staff at The Orchard (especially Haley) are truly exceptional, with a passion for hospitality and a commitment to making your wedding day perfect in every way.

From the moment we booked our wedding, they were attentive to every detail and went above and beyond to ensure that our day was flawless. They were always available to answer our questions and provide guidance, and they worked tirelessly to ensure that every aspect of our wedding was executed perfectly.
One of the things that impressed us most about The Orchard at Caney Creek was their flexibility and willingness to work with us to create a customized wedding experience that perfectly reflected our vision.

The Orchard at Caney Creek is the absolute best place we could have found to get married. It's perfectly tucked away while still being close to the highway. It has the best Airbnb-style houses to stay at and get ready in. The ceremony sites are picture-perfect. The reception space was just the right size for our wedding. The onsite catering was absolutely delicious. The best part of the OCC is that they cover so many things - they provide the TABC-certified staff and all mixers, they cut your cake, they have wonderful coordinators and staff (shoutout to our coordinator Haley who was a godsend), they allow an after-party, and so much more. Everyone that attended our wedding commented on what a perfect venue it was! I would get married here all over again.

My husband and I got married here just 2 weeks ago, and I can’t say enough good things about The Orchard and their team! The convenience of having the venue also be your caterer was so helpful, and all of food tasted great! The service staff and bartender were also very nice, and are great at what they do. We had gone with the Wedding Eve and the After Party packages so that we could host our families and wedding party onsite for 2 nights, and I love how it worked out! After the reception was over, our older guests were able to leave while the younger crowd stayed on-site a bit longer to hang out, which was so much fun! Finally, I have to give the biggest shoutout to Haley, the coordinator that works with the venue. We decided to opt-in for their coordination package, and it was the best choice we made for the entire wedding. Haley is truly the guardian angel of weddings- she asked for our preference on details I never would have thought of, she helped set up both our ceremony and reception decor, and she truly just made everything fall into place. She made sure we ate and had drinks when we wanted them, and once everything was done, she helped box everything up so it could be put away into cars for the night. Being a Type A person, it can be harder for me to let someone else take lead on things, but with Haley it felt so natural, not to mention she handles every situation so gracefully! Using The Orchard for our wedding and having Haley help us is a decision I would make 1000 times over again!

They had great prices on inclusive packages that are hard to beat.

This is a must see venue!!! It is truly magical!!! My husband and I got married here 3 weeks ago and I cannot say enough great things about the Orchard!!! The venue itself is beautiful - the trees and green spaces on property make for beautiful pictures! There are 4 houses on property that allowed our family and wedding party to stay on site allowing us to enjoy the whole weekend together! We also did our rehearsal dinner on the outdoor deck and it was just a beautiful view over looking the creek on the back of the property! The best part of the venue has to be the staff and food! We worked with the Orchard’s coordinator Haley Sabrsula who truly was a dream wedding coordinator! I do not know how we could have done the wedding day without her help!! From ensuring the day went smooth to making sure the decor was perfect to coordinating vendors - she did it all! Haley made our day so smooth and worked to make our whole day the best day of our lives! We loved getting married at the Orchard!!!

She is so sweet and is constantly in the background making things go smoothly and thinking about every tiny detail. The staff is all extremely professional and the venue is absolutely breathtaking. It felt like a second home being there and I didn’t want to leave! We finally got our photos back and I am gushing at how beautiful they all are and how beautiful the venue was. I HIGHLY recommend booking The Orchard at Caney Creek. It was the best decision I’ve made besides choosing to marry my husband!

It’s a beautiful pecan orchard with a creek and an indoor dining space. It’s in Wharton, and they have charming little houses for your guests to stay in overnight. Lots of pretty places to take pictures!
The food is delicious. Guests raved about it. Add on the charcuterie board for your cocktail hour. Definitely worth it!
I did a lot of my own wedding planning, so I really appreciated that they had a preferred vendor list. You're not required to use their list, but it really helped me a ton because I didn't have to research vendors.
Our day of coordinator Haley was sweet and calm. Can’t say enough positive things. We got married outside in the orchard, but I also liked that we could have gotten married inside if the weather had been bad.

We absolutely LOVED The Orchard at Caney Creek!! Haley, the coordinator at Caney Creek was so quick to respond and very helpful the day of! I was at ease knowing there was basically nothing for me to handle on wedding day. If you’re hesitant about booking a day of coordinator at The Orchard, just do it!! Jeff, the owner was also super helpful and friendly to work with. I ended up wanting my ceremony space moved the morning of the wedding and he got out there himself and got it handled and organized. The food catered through the venue was absolutely amazing too! So many people came up to us at the wedding telling us the food was SO good! There was a great discount for our Friday wedding too. We also loved the fact we had the houses on the property for the night before and the night after. We didn’t have to worry about family and wedding party driving around before or after the wedding and we got to continue the party after the reception, which was amazing for us to spend more time with everyone. We had an absolutely perfect day and there was nothing we would have changed! It was just beautiful and we loved every moment of it! HUGE thank you to The Orchard at Caney Creek, Haley, Hannah and Jeff for making our day perfect!

We received so many compliments after our wedding of how great everything went that day but especially how delicious the food was and they wished they could have gone for seconds. The staff was absolutely phenomenal, very professional and we couldn't thank our catering coordinator, Christina, enough for all she did. Two Forks made our day even more special!

My fiancé and I toured The Orchard at Caney Creek while searching for our wedding venue. We loved absolutely everything about this venue. The grounds are breathtaking, the reception area is beautiful, and the optional guest accommodations are an added bonus! Hannah, the venue's wedding coordinator, was extremely helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable! I can't say enough good things about her. Also, their package option is a wedding planning lifesaver. Our venue choice came down to location, and unfortunately this venue was just a little too far from our hometown, otherwise we would've had our wedding here!

I wish I had enough words to describe how amazing this venue and their staff are! I booked the Orchard at first sight and it was the only venue I looked at in person- it is absolutely incredible! We did the Wedding Eve package so we were able to have our rehearsal dinner there and have guests stay over night for both rehearsal dinner and night of the wedding- I HIGHLY recommend this (All the guests with children loved this)!
The property is beautiful and made for a perfect outdoor ceremony. Every detail of the decor on the property is impeccable- we were blown away at all the small design touches in the houses we stayed in.
Hannah and Haley were INCREDIBLE and AMAZING! I am so thankful we had them both as day of coordinators.
We initially booked our wedding in January 2020 but due to COVID postponed to November 2021, the staff made this transition SEAMLESS and so easy.
THE FOOD- WOW, everyone LOVED it. Also, the mixed china pattern plates for the place settings was the icing on the cake and what sealed the deal for me booking them.
I just honestly can't recommend this venue or the staff enough, our wedding was beyond my wildest dreams.

From the moment we first looked at this venue, we were in love with it. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful from the orchard and ponds to the reception hall and various houses available to rent. The staff are very professional, responsive & helpful. We enjoyed every moment of the wedding. The option to rent the various houses and have guests stay on site overnight was a great bonus and allowed us to continue our celebration after the official reception was finished. It was very convenient that the venue includes the catering service, and their food is fantastic. I highly recommend this location to any person planning their wedding celebration. A special thanks to Hannah for all her assistance throughout the planning process.

My husband and I were pretty picky when it came to finding a venue - we wanted a stunning entrance, lots of greenery, and a modern/chic dining area. The Orchard met all these and more. The property is beautiful and maintained well. The guest houses are so convenient and comfortable. The food was warm, delicious, and exceeded expectations. We had several wedding guests share their enthusiasm for the venue! I cannot begin to thank Hannah and the rest of the OCC team enough for everything that they did leading up to and on the wedding day. Our day was magical and wonderful thanks to the Orchard.

I’m beyond glad that we booked The Orchard for our wedding. Not only is the venue absolutely beautiful, but Hannah is beyond amazing! She helped with everything and made planning my wedding less stressful and I’ll forever be grateful for that. I highly recommend having her as your day of coordinator. It’s definitely worth it! I really appreciated that they gave me a preferred vendors list. It made it so much easier when looking for other vendors. You don’t have to go with who’s on the list but it really helps knowing that they’ve already been to the venue. They also have open houses where you can meet some of the vendors. I honestly can’t picture ever having my wedding any other place. I know you’ll love it too!

The Orchard was AMAZING!! Hannah was our coordinator and there aren't enough amazing words to describe her! She was so helpful from the moment we booked. She showed us around the venue many times and was so helpful and ready to answer questions anytime we needed! The venue is beautiful, and everyone helped to create my exact vision for our big day. 10/10 from me! If you are looking for wide open spaces, the ability to make your day extremely unique, and the most helpful and kind staff, this is the place!

From beginning to end the orchard was perfect! They were prompt and answering our questions and they were professional in every way! The tasting was really good and it helped us to confirm our choices. They were so good and listening to Claire and Will‘s ideas and putting them in motion. They have good social media that gets their name out there. Hannah was so good the day of the wedding about stopping by all the time to see if we needed anything and to see if our vendors were showing up and doing what we wanted. We cannot sing her praises enough! Everyone we came in contact with was so kind and professional. I would highly recommend them for all your needs when you are planning a wedding!

We love everyone at OCC!! We just had our wedding there about 2 weeks ago and we couldn't have made a better choice. The owners Susan and Jeff made us feel like family there and were the most helpful people. When we toured with them we knew immediately this was our place. Hannah our day of coordinator was also amazing. She made everything easy and fun on the wedding day. NO STRESS!!! Not to mention the site is beautiful, all of our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding venue they had ever been too. Thanks OCC for making the best day of our lives fun, easy, amazing and beautiful.

This venue is absolutely perfect! We got married here a few weeks ago and everything went so smoothly with the help of our wonderful coordinator, Christina. Jeff and Susan are so down to earth and extremely easy to work with... they made my planning super easy. This venue is beautiful and truly comes with everything you need. We received so many compliments on the food as well as the beauty of the entire property. The lodging on site was exactly what we needed for our guests and family. My husband's family traveled from Minnesota with 20 people, the groom's house accommodated them perfectly.
This place is truly a one stop shop, and if that's what you're looking for, book quickly!!

We were married at OCC a few weeks ago and could not have chosen a more perfect venue. The Orchard is an incredibly beautiful place with extremely knowledgeable staff that go above and beyond in helping to make your planning easy and your wedding day fun. Susan, Hannah, and staff are respectful and work hard to meet your needs for your wedding day. The atmosphere of OCC is magical and romantic. When the sun sets, the trees glow in the light, making pictures amazing.
Many details, such as linens, silverware, flatware, and catering, are included in the price which saves you time and effort during your planning process. All the prices are upfront without any hidden fees or charges, which is so helpful when you are trying to budget for the big day.
We opted for their Wedding Eve package, which allowed us to stay on site with our friends and family Friday night as well. This is one of the big reasons we loved our experience with OCC. By having an extra evening with our friends and family the night before, it felt like a weekend getaway and the wedding day felt much more relaxed and fun. We had so many guests tell us the grounds were beautiful and that the food was delicious.
If you are considering this venue, we highly recommend that you visit in person and meet with the staff. We knew the OCC was our venue from the first visit and you may too.
Thank you, OCC!

This venue was FANTASTIC! It was so naturally beautiful with all the trees and the creek that it needed very little decorating. The whole place was simple, light and airy. Many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to.
Our families loved the setup of the venue as well. We all stayed for the weekend (got there Friday, left Sunday), which made things a lot less hectic. It was nice to get some family time together while finishing up some crafts for the wedding. We all had our own space but there were enough big common areas for people to hang out, too. It was great!
Last but certainly not least -the staff! I can’t say enough good things about the staff. They helped with WAY more than I expected them to. Once I showed them what I wanted they setup the centerpieces, did almost all of the setup for the ceremony site, setup the prop table for the photo booth, my coordinator Hannah even wrote the flavors of my cake in cute calligraphy and it looked amazing! The owners, Susan and Jeff, were there to help every step of the way as well. My DJ was stranded in Chicago the night before the wedding and they were right there at 11pm texting people they knew so that we would have a DJ.
You couldn’t ask for a more friendly, fun, professional and compassionate group of people to work with. If I had it to do all over again, I would choose them and their gorgeous venue hands down.

The Orchard did everything perfectly and was so easy to book and enjoy. No hidden fees for linens/tables etc., venue, food and drink were all available in one place for a very straightforward price. Also, their taxes are not a "gratuity" only going to waiters, but it is a true tax which gets distributed to ALL working staff, which I think is wonderful! Military discount, very reasonable pricing, and VERY affordable on-property accommodations for family and friends, so no one has to worry about getting there late! It made the rehearsal dinner and night before the wedding so fun and stress-free. The owners also have several restaurant franchises which guaranteed AMAZING food! No sad chicken or rubbery steak. Getting the Wedding Eve package (all housing on property for the night before) with our wedding day made us feel like we were at a little getaway, even though there is a Wal-Mart just 5 minutes away. Beautiful, luxurious, and the employees (Hannah Jo!) were always available via email or text, usually within 12 hours! Sweet, generous people with a passion for special days, and a beautiful location that so many of my family members said was one of the most beautiful weddings they've been to, with some of the best dinner they've had. We had minimal wedding decorations and it was still so beautiful, AND they graciously donated their lanterns to help spice up the tables. I'm sure with bigger, more extravagant decorations the reception hall would be a DREAM! Overall, best place, best people, best price, best wedding :-)

My husband and I could not speak higher of The Orchard at Caney Creek and their incredible team!
We met Susan at a Bridal Expo and she was the ONLY vendor to take the time to answer all of our questions before we even saw the venue. She went over pricing, accommodations and stayed so patient with us when we came back around for a SECOND time to ask additional questions we had though of while walking around. Susan then invited us to their open house the following weekend where we would be able to sample items from their menu as well as meet with some vendors they had invited.
The moment we arrived, we were pretty much sold from the appearance alone but then we were personally greeted by Susan and she actually remembered us!! She gave us a tour of the grounds and I immediately fell in love. My, now, husband was also convinced this had to be our venue. And, because they invited a DJ to work the event and give out information, my mother in law was also able to book him on the spot!
The very best part preparing for our wedding day was working with Susan and Jeff. They are so kind and SO accommodating! Susan even helped me find a flower vendor LAST MINUTE when mine backed out!
I could go on and on about this venue, the houses included and the team. We had the best day ever and our families LOVED the rooms and houses.
Thank you, Orchard Team, for the best experience!! We so appreciate all you have done for us!!
With Love,
The Steenburg’s

I'm so happy we picked OCC! We got married here three weeks ago and they made it easy. Jeff, Susan, and the entire team are so nice and helpful. They are quick to answer any question or help find a solution for you. Hannah did amazing at managing the chaos as our day-of-coordinator. She created our timeline, coordinated with vendors, helped decorate, herded cats, etc. - a true angel!
The OCC team worked with us to accommodate our large guest count and had backup plans to make sure everyone would be comfortable. I heard so many compliments from guests about the beautiful venue and the great food. The lighted outside deck for dancing is definitely a unique set-up, and I can't wait to see it in my pictures! Also, the bride house and lodge are perfect spots to relax before the ceremony. All-in-all, I truly recommend OCC to anyone. Thank you OCC! :)

Susan, Jeff, and the staff at The Orchard made our April wedding and reception truly memorable!! My husband and I fell in love with the beautiful front orchard and it’s trees and just knew that’s where we wanted to share our vows with family and friends. The Orchard easily and comfortably accommodated our 100+ wedding party and guests, and offered beautiful spaces for our guests to enjoy during the event. We all especially loved the outdoor deck and it’s convenience to its inside spaces - everyone felt included. Susan was so fun to work with, creating and delivering a truly unique and eclectic space that I had envisioned!! Prompt and easy correspondence with Susan and Jeff made pre-wedding planning less stressful. In addition to the main venue, our wedding party enjoyed the separate houses to relax and get ready. Overall, The Orchard at Caney Creek was a wonderful space, offering the flexibility to customize our wedding; deliver LOTS of wonderful food for our sit down reception dinner; and provided wonderful staff to work with to deliver our day!!! We are an outdoorsy couple and so I cannot say enough about our love of the TREES and the feeling of exchanging our vows in that space with each other among our pastor, and friends and family! Highly, highly recommended!

We were married here in early May 2019. Such a peaceful, breathtaking venue with many unique areas for photos. When we saw this place we knew it was absolutely perfect for us. We really enjoyed using the bridal house & groom's suite to hang out and get ready. Susan was an awesome day of coordinator and spent time answering my dozens of questions prior to the wedding, and they were very accommodating in many areas. The food they catered was also very yummy! Overall 100% recommend- they made our day even more special and we are so grateful.

Wow, wow, wow. Susan and her husband were my favorite vendor to work with BY FAR. Any request I had, not a problem. The food was amazing. It was hot, they served our guests quickly and bussed the tables professionally. We had so many people compliment our food. It was SO good! We had chicken with a spinach cream sauce and beef tenderloin, my mouth drools just thinking about! I loved working with Two Forks and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone! They were professional, nice, and they truly care about your day being special!

I knew from my first visit to the orchard that this was where I wanted to get married. It was beautiful and Susan was friendly and helpful from the very start! We had nothing but great interactions with everyone who worked at the venue. They recently renovated their reception area and it looks amazing and there's so much space! You could not find nicer staff or a more beautiful venue. We loved everything about this amazing place and so did our guests! The food from their restaurants was also fantastic and it was great to be able to deal with the same wonderful people for the catering too.
