Villa Antonia is an idyllic al-fresco wedding venue located in Austin, TX. This beautiful space, carved into the Texas hill country, boasts stylish and elegant features, and excellent photo opportunities. Couples are sure to feel the romance flowing through this picturesque villa estate. Combined with superb management services, this charming villa can make fairy-tale weddings a reality.
Initially constructed in 1999, the villa was designed by a lady named Antonia for personal use. This labor of love arose from her passion for building the home of her dreams. Soon after its completion, couples began arriving at the door, asking if the villa was open for wedding-hire. Antonia was a romantic at heart, and so she transformed her home into a luxury location for ceremonies and receptions. Antonia’s lifelong project has been home to over 1700 events ever since.
Couples and guests alike are sure to fall enchanted by the old-world feel emanating from the stone terraces and winding staircases. Walking among the rose garden by the waterfall, couples can explore a fantastic vantage point overlooking the scenic views of the countryside. The combination of wilderness and well-kept greenery creates a romantic ambience will be difficult departing from. Defined by arched entryways, terracotta tiles, and iron-wrought detailing, every inch of the villa was carefully made to delight. A gorgeous chapel can be used for both indoor ceremonies and reception gatherings while the grounds boast equally divine outdoor spaces.
Operating as a wedding venue for so many years means that the villa staff understands what makes a wedding special. Down to the last detail, the venue’s coordinating team offers couples complete guidance and can execute every precious moment seamlessly. Wedding events have exclusive use of the grounds with facilities made available to accommodate last-minute weather conditions. The venue requests that couples select from their preferred list of coordinating, catering and bartending vendors to ensure a hassle-free event. Dedicated time allowances for rehearsal, setup, and teardown are also provided for each nuptial occasion. Couples can feel like royalty on a day they will remember for years to come.

Words cannot express how lovely my encounter was with Villa Antonia. Amy is beyond amazing. My previous wedding venue canceled my event and Amy was right there with me to help support me for my big day. Although I was unable to host my event here, Amy was so helpful in every single other way possible. She helped me with vendors and even let me take my bridal portraits there as a wedding gift (best pictures I have ever taken with the best photo opportunities) - she did all of this on her own. The entire team is amazing, the venue is SO STUNNING. I cannot recommend Villa Antonia enough. It is breathtaking, but the staff there is what really sets it apart even more! You will not regret it. 10000/10!!!!

Our wedding day was a dream come true, thanks to the perfect combination of the breathtaking Villa Antonia and the exceptional coordination by Emily Vidal. The venue’s Italian villa-style architecture, lush greenery, and versatile spaces provided a magical backdrop that left everyone in awe. Pairing this stunning setting with Emily’s expertise brought our vision to life seamlessly.
Emily was incredible from the start, offering thoughtful advice and handling every detail with unmatched organization. She took care of vendor communication and anticipated needs we hadn’t even considered, making the planning process as stress-free as possible. On the wedding day, she flawlessly executed the timeline, ensuring everything unfolded as planned and exactly as we had envisioned.
Emily and her assistant, Carolina, were lifesavers on the day itself. They helped bustle my complex train, kept everything on schedule, and ensured John and I had everything we needed. Their dedication and calm professionalism allowed us to fully enjoy every moment of the day without worry.
If you’re looking for a venue with timeless beauty and unparalleled service, Villa Antonia is the perfect choice. Paired with Emily’s exceptional coordination, it created a wedding experience we’ll cherish forever.

Villa Antonia was absolutely stunning. Our guests were blown away, many saying it was the most beautiful venue they had ever seen. The atmosphere was magical, and everything looked incredible. I would get married here over and over again! Amy, the owner, was wonderful to work with, and the staff was great overall. Monica, the venue coordinator, was helpful, though she came across as a bit reserved. The only downside is that, unless you buy many additional hours, you'll have to get ready somewhere else and then go to the venue- so you don't really get the full use of the bridal suite for getting ready/getting ready photos. Nonetheless, we were beyond thrilled with Villa Antonia—it truly was the perfect setting for our wedding.

Villa Antonia is what dreams are made of. The venue itself is breathtaking, and the photos do not do it justice. Booking a venue tour will be the best thing you do, and it will be unforgettable!! For my husband and me, it was love at first sight. The second the Villa came into view as we drove through the Hill Country, we knew it was the one. Their open houses are also a wonderful opportunity to experience the venue in all its glory and to meet their wonderful team and vendors.
The Villa is family-owned and operated by an incredibly kind family, The Mauldings. Amy, the owner, has excellent communication, and her son Andy is so personable. You can trust them to ensure that your wedding day is as seamless as possible, and their recommended vendors are amazing!!
We highly recommend Villa Antonia to anyone looking for a venue that combines breathtaking beauty with exceptional service! You and your guests will genuinely feel like you're in Italy because it truly is like Tuscany in Texas.

Gorgeous, intimate venue, that truly feels like you’ve transported from Texas into the Italian countryside. Dinner under the string lights was pure magic and my guests loved being able to move through all the different spaces throughout the night. The staff is extremely friendly, responsive, easy to work with, and have great relationships with their preferred vendors, making the day flow seamlessly. Worth every penny.

We LOVED our wedding at Villa Antonia. The venue and views are absolutely breathtaking. We had our ceremony outside and dinner inside which was perfect. Then, we did our first dance under the lights outside and it felt magical. Seriously the best venue in Austin and we are so happy with our experience!

The Villa Antonia was the best! We booked it as our venue a recently this year just from what we saw on theknot! A year before my sister and her fiance had our first in-person visit and it was just as beautiful as in photos. The staff was extremely helpful and responsive. The team worked with us on scheduling all visits and was flexible since we don’t live near Austin. On the day-of our arrival the staff was attentive, friendly, accommodating and communicative. The scenery here is beyond breathtaking and pictures do not do it justice! We’d highly recommend Villa Antonia to anyone who wants their wedding in Pasadena. ALSO, AMY, IS OUTSTANDING!!!!!

I had the pleasure to be invited to Claudette and Hank Hughes' wedding earlier this month. The most beautiful wedding I've ever seen. Villa Antonia was a perfect setting for a perfect celebration! I do want to compliment the venue staff and especially Monica Hudson. I lost my purse during the reception and told Monica before leaving that evening. She took down all my information, and then phoned me on Monday to tell me a member of her staff had found my purse. She shipped it to me via overnight delivery at no charge. A big thank you Monica to you and your staff! Jennifer P.

Our wedding was on 9/18/22 and it was the most lovely and memorable day! I planned our wedding for nearly 2 years and thanks to Monica and the coordination team at Villa Antonia I was able to turn off my admittedly hyper-organized anxious brain and simply enjoy the moments day-of. Email communication leading up to our wedding was odd, and there were a couple things that I asked for that didn't get done (like hiding the blue planters that didn't match our decor, and putting away the misters), and the personal flowers almost didn't get pinned, but overall those are small blips and in the end we wouldn't have chosen anywhere else to celebrate our wedding. Thank you, VA (and Monica!) for hosting our wedding and making our day-of so easy!

Monica Hudson and the team will go above and beyond to make your dreams a reality. I cannot tell you how grateful we are to have had them as our team. We always were supported, and their communication was consistent. Villa Antonia will treat your family as their own and make sure you leave with a smile.

Villa Antonia was the perfect setting for our wedding! The views and venue are breathtaking. I loved the old world charm and the fact that it wasn’t your typical wedding venue! Amy, the manager, was extremely quick to respond any time we reached out and was flexible with any needs that we had. Emily, our day of coordinator, helped pull off a seamless day that truly allowed us to relax and soak it all in.

We had our 2022 semi-formal at Villa Antonia and it was absolutely exceptional. The venue is not only beautiful, but the staff are extremely helpful and are always willing to lend a hand. We had access to the entire property, giving us plenty of space to mingle, dance, and enjoy the company of each other! The staff at Villa Antonia created such a fun atmosphere for us. They threw in glow sticks for our dance portion, and even allowed us to use the extra sparklers they had on hand to end the night! I can go on and on about how amazing this venue was, but to sum it up, the venue and staff truly made the girls in our chapter, and their dates, have such a beautiful and magical night!

Everything, and I mean eeeeverything at our wedding was perfectly coordinated by Monica, and the space is just unbelievable...
We checked out many venues, but none came even remotely close to Villa Antonia. We are very happy to have been able to get married in such a beautiful place. Made our day even more memorable & enjoyable.

You MUST at least tour this place if you are looking for a venue. However, once you do I promise you will book it. Everything is picture perfect and honestly you don't need to "dress it up" like you would with other venues. One of my guests described it as a "Hallmark wedding" with how dream like and surreal this venue was. Every inch of this place is beautiful and even with what ended up being a much smaller wedding than we had planned (only around 50 people) it created the most perfect intimate and special feel. We had everyone outside for dinner and that will forever live in my head as the most beautiful memory. I do recommend adding an hour to the contract before the ceremony if you are doing a first look. Without that, it would almost be impossible. However, you will not regret booking this venue!

Villa Antonia was the most perfect venue and I cannot say enough good things about it. The venue has a nickname of "Tuscany in Texas" and makes you feel like you aren't in central Texas when you are there. We got so many compliments on the venue about how amazing the views are and the design of the venue. Villa Antonia was the first venue we toured and we were 99% sure it was the one. We toured two more in Austin but they couldn't compare. Amy gave us our tour and really sold us on the venue. She was also so helpful in letting us come out and see the venue again when we needed to take extra photos, measurements, etc. while planning. Monica is the day of coordinator and is truly amazing. She was so responsive to my several texts, emails, and phone calls leading up to the wedding. She also made our wedding flow and execute perfectly. Going into our meeting with Monica a month before our wedding, we felt so stressed as we had what felt like 100 different vendors and all these individual parts but no clue how it was all going to come together. We left that meeting with Monica feeling so relieved and so much better as she brought all of those pieces together. On the day of the wedding, Monica was awesome coordinating everything and helped us feel stress free. Maria was also so amazing. She put the boutonniere on everyone, made sure my wife and I had a drink as soon as the ceremony was over, and was constantly checking on us the entire night to make sure we had what we needed.
The bottom line is Amy, Monica, and Maria are the A Team and you have to get married at Villa Antonia. There is no reason not to.

Villa Antonia is absolutely gorgeous! It has a tuscan vibe that is a unique find in central Texas! I was unable to hold my wedding here due to my very large guest count, but I could not pass up the opportunity to take my bridal portraits at this amazing venue! The grounds are so beautiful; there is an incredible view/backdrop in every single photo we took! The venue owner, Amy, is also amazing! She is so kind and professional! She had a complementary charcuterie board and champagne bottle waiting in the bridal suite upon my arrival, and she was super helpful in pointing out the best places on the property for pictures. If you are considering holding your event here or using this venue for your bridal or engagement photo sessions- DO IT! You will not regret it! There is no other venue in the area that has the amazing views and tuscan style found at Villa Antonia!

Mine was not a normal wedding story! The pandemic forced us to postpone twice, the first time only 6 days out from the wedding! Guess who rolled with all the punches? Villa Antonia. They stuck by my side and helped me not once, but twice to find a new date that worked for me.
After waiting 3 years for the big day to finally come, there was a massive thunderstorm! The ladies at Villa Antonia quickly jumped into action and implemented our Plan B. I cannot be more thankful for the ladies at Villa Antonia and all the hard work they put into making my day special.
If you want a private, breathtaking view with an old style Italian Villa vibe, this is the place for you!

We originally fell in love with Villa Antonia because of its beautiful architecture and landscape: the romantic, castle-like buildings; the rolling hillside; the numerous different areas to discover and photograph (butterfly garden, waterfall, chapel, tower); and the flexibility of having both a beautiful outdoor and/or indoor wedding. However, when we started working with the staff at Villa Antonia, we realized we were getting so much more than just the beautiful space. First, they already had all the tables/chairs we needed for our wedding, so we did not need to invest in outside rentals. Second, their staff are knowledgeable and experienced in planning and hosting weddings specifically at Villa Antonia, which means they know what ideas will work and what will need to be done day-of to help things run smoothly. There were three Villa Antonia staff during our wedding – Emily, our day-of coordinator; Maria, who helped with moving things and dress-bustling; and Jim, the security/parking attendant. All of them had years of experience servicing Villa Antonia and, due to their help, we were able to sail through our wedding and actually enjoy ourselves rather than worrying about what needed to be done next or focus on any fires that needed to be put out. Emily took care of communication with all our vendors, both day-of and leading up to for day-of coordination, and Maria expertly helped with set-up and break-down of items (including dress-bustling!) that we barely noticed! We appreciated their help and presence every minute, and we realized the service we received couldn’t have been bought! The venue is well worth the money – you get a gorgeous, multifaceted space that comes with its own furniture and an exceptional staff that makes sure your wedding is everything you want it to be.

This venue should be at the top of every couple's interest list, especially same-sex couples! I have nothing but praise for the venue and the staff at Villa Antonia. If the absolutely breathtaking views weren’t reason enough to get married here, the coordinators and support staff really do go all out to give you the best experience possible on your special day. My husband and I are a same-sex couple and were both initially drawn in by the diversity showcased on their website. However, the support and respect we felt throughout the entire planning process, as well as the day of the wedding, made everything perfect. This venue is a showstopper and we fell in love with it instantly; none of the other venues we toured could even compare. We are both so happy with our decision! Everyone here treated us like family and were genuinely excited to see our love story play out. Monica and Maria were so incredibly sweet and personable. Even though they do this for a living and probably see hundreds of couples a year, they really did a great job of making us feel special on the day of the wedding. They also both worked tirelessly to make the day a perfect, memorable success. We both really appreciated that level of investment and will miss working with them. Truly exceptional every step of the way!

Quick Summary: Villa Antonia was one of the most incredible wedding venues I've been to and all their staff were top notch professionals! 100/10 would recommend!
I'm writing this review coming from a unique perspective; I was a groomsman in a wedding on 12/20/21 but also the wedding planner for the couple so I was pulling double duty. I've been in this industry for what feels like forever and can say everyone at the Villa Antonia made this day as smooth and special as I wanted it to be for my friends. This was a destination wedding for the couple so it was especially important that we locked down all the details ahead of time so day of I would be playing the role of friend to the bride and groom, rather than wedding planner. Our day of coordinator, Emily, took special care to ensure that no details were missed. A few minor tablecloth issues were quickly resolved without fanfare and it was the smoothest wedding I could imagine! Thank you Emily and all the Villa staff for making that day so special and being so warm and accommodating throughout the planning process.
Also, the building itself is gorgeous, no need to over the top decor. Between the incredible views from all angles to the unique architecture of the buildings, this venue stands out!
100/10 would recommend!

Our wedding was this past weekend and it was an absolute dream. All our guests were swooning over the venue, it was absolutely beautiful. But what I really want to highlight was the attention to detail that Monica, Maria, and the Villa Antonia team made. We are from Chicago so I planned my entire wedding remotely, made layouts, directions, and handed all my details to Monica and Maria to take care of and not only did they make it happen, they went above and beyond. Monica is so damn good at her job and it shows. Maria was so wonderful too, whether it was guiding us and telling us where to be or putting a straw in my bottled water to make sure I didn't ruin my lipstick- it was the little details like that, that made our day just absolutely perfect in every way. Thanks Villa Antonia team, we will never forget how perfect our day was.

The staff of Villa Antonia are amazing people to work with. The facility is phenomenal. A jewel in the Hill Country just outside of Austin, TX. From the moment we set foot on the property, we knew this was the venue to exchange wedding vows. Amy made the transaction for booking and re-booking seamless during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Monica, our coordinator for the wedding, ensured everything ran smoothly without a glitch. We cannot say enough good things about the professional, kind and warm staff and the facility is breathtakingly amazing. Go visit Villa Antonia, you will be very pleased. We sure are!

My eyes get watery thinking about the day we found Villa Antonia. We saw a random Pinterest post and knew it was the place for us. Villa Antonia is not only a beautiful, spacious venue, it also has the most kind-hearted and excited people working with you to make your dreams come true. The venue itself definitely didn't need any further dressing up, which helped our decor budget. And, goodness, when the sun goes down and the lights illuminate the balconies.. It's just magical.

We fell for Villa Antonia’s charm last fall when we toured. We wanted to book it for October 2021. I specifically asked about their policy regarding postponement during our tour and Amy said the Villa would work with us if COVID was still an issue. We did book the venue after our tour. However, due to COVID and the international travel ban in France, we recently had to reach out to the venue to ask about postponing. Amy immediately responded and was very understanding. She sent us the policy for Villa Antonia. We were able to resell our date, which gave us more flexibility to choose an available date in 2022. I’m very grateful to them for working with us and we can’t wait to celebrate in October 2022! Solid business and great customer experience in difficult circumstances. Thank you!

We knew we wanted to do a fully DIY wedding but still needed a beautiful backdrop to serve as a canvas. As soon as we arrived at Villa Antonia, we were speechless and taken aback at how beautiful the venue was. It's atmosphere was romantic and magical at the same time. With so many options, you can be creative with how unique you wanted your wedding to be. The staff was just as amazing and was completely accommodating. We actually had to postpone our wedding during covid and they were so helpful with making something so stressful, so much easier. Chris was spectacular and a superstar. With her help and our coordinator Koehne Barlow, they made a miracle out of a wedding that was almost, just almost a last minute disaster especially with the wind. But they got their expertise together and took out their wands and voila.
Our ceremony took place inside in the gorgeous chapel which had perfect lighting. Just enough for a romantic setting, yet bright enough for gorgeous photos and videos. Terra Vista string's music (recommended by Villa Antonia) echoed perfectly through the chapel and sounded phenomal, setting the perfect mood. The reception was on the terrace and spread throughout (for covid reasons). The heaters provided warmth yet created such a magical ambiance.
We used Mopsie (super delicious!) as our caterer and chose the Texas BBQ. The ceremony and cocktail music was by Terra Vista. Both highly recommended by Villa Antonia. Terra Vista and DJ Saint from Complete Wedding and Events, played together whimsically and so profoundly, their fusion was one of the highlights of the night. Austin was known for live music, and we wanted to make sure that all of our guests (95% from out of town) can experience Austin's live music wonders.
The night ended with dancing in the chapel which was spacious enough for crazy fun dancing and whatever you and your guest plan for the rest of the evening. We had snake dances, toss dances, line dancing, and tamborazo. Not to mention the garter and bouqeut toss.
I can keep going and going about the wedding but I'd be writing a book. Our wedding is still talked about, and was said to be the wedding of the century! Lol. I wish the day last much longer, or at least keep replaying. You can view our wedding on Youtube and see for yourself. Some things, we just can't even put into words. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rorhrx1WYCQ&t=110s
By the way, we even booked a photo session to get more intimate pictures of our family and redo some poses we missed because our day was cut short due to winter's hours. That venue is too beautiful and there are so many gorgeous photo opportunities. One day isn't enough. Thank you Chris and Amy from Villa Antonia. You both played such a huge part in make our big day extra special.

Villa Antonia is a dream come true! I knew the first time my husband and I visited, it was the only place I wanted to get married. There are many spaces throughout the venue to accommodate indoor and outdoor events and the venue makes it feel as if you are in a completely different country. The staff is absolutely amazing and treated not only us (bride and groom), but our guests like family! Chris Spady is such a joy to work with and it was like having a wedding planner. She was on top of every single detail of our wedding and it truly showed, because our day ran so smoothly! Maria is one of the sweetest people we have ever met and was a huge help on the day of our wedding. She took care of my entire family and we are so thankful for all she did. Chris and Maria worked so hard and made sure no one had to worry about a thing except to enjoy the day. Our day was perfect and we cannot thank the Villa Antonia team enough for making our day everything we wanted and more!

I found this venue back in college when I was thinking about my dream wedding just for fun. A few years later it ended up being the first wedding venue we viewed. While we also went on tours of other venues that peaked our interest, my heart always came back to Villa Antonia.
Villa Antonia truly helped my dream wedding vision come to life. The detailed architecture and intricate design were highly complemented by my guests, who also loved all of the open indoor and outdoor space. With the timing and amazing weather that day, the ceremony was perfect on the terrace overlooking the hill country and the changing fall colors (reason for choosing November). Also because of the size, it was easy to put together a dream option for great or bad weather, without having to sacrifice my vision for the day.
I wouldn't have changed anything about the day or the venue and highly recommend Villa Antonia as a ceremony and reception venue.

Absolutely beautiful venue. All of my guests could not stop complimenting how amazing it was. The staff, especially Chris, was on top of everything. I did not worry about anything the entire day, and I actually got to eat all of the food! They made sure me and my groom had a full plate of every food item we ordered , as well as a drink in our hand, so we wouldn't miss out on any of it. I would do it all over again if I could!

The people at Villa made all my dreams come true. Even though I got married during the pandemic, they made it as simple for me as possible. They had an open house where all their preferred vendors were in attendance. I chose almost all of my vendors there on the spot - check, check, check! When we got closer to my date, they worked with me to accommodate my guest count, creatively utilizing the venue space. The guests loved it! We all felt like we were in Europe, enjoying the summer night. There is no other venue or team like this in all of Austin. My day was beautiful & there was so much love!

This was the second venue my now husband and I look at and the second we got in the car from touring the venue, he looked at me and said, "this is our venue!" Villa Antonia is absolutely stunning in every way! We had a small intimate ceremony with close friends/family only and while it is a HUGE venue to accommodate hundreds, they made it feel very intimate, as we wanted. The bride and groom suites are absolutely gorgeous and our family still talks about how gorgeous our wedding was. Friends and family that couldn't make it look at our pictures (which were taken throughout the entire grounds of Villa Antonia after the ceremony) and are in awe that such a venue exists in the Austin area. It truly was a magical day and the staff made it so easy for me to not have to worry about anything! Thank you all so much for everything on June 19, 2020! :)

Securing the Villa Antonia is like having cheat codes to having the best wedding possible. I don't think there is a nicer wedding venue this side of being a celebrity or millionaire. And even if you were, you would still want to book this place. Although your mind makes you want to think it's hard to get to, nobody had trouble finding the place, and once there, the setting around the venue, and every detail of the venue itself provided an absurdly enchanting experience. The staff that they had helping us out, mainly Chris Spady, was a superstar standout. I'm so glad we stuck with this venue. It was a hit. The pictures are fabulous. And my memories of my night there will be cherished for as long as I am around.

My husband and I got married here this past October, and it was fantastic! The beauty alone that this venue has to offer is absolutely breathtaking. Everywhere you look, there is beauty. The hill country views, Italian architecture and lush landscaping make it feel like you are in Tuscany. The vibes are very elegant and romantic, which really forces you to be in the moment and take it all in. A few extra perks are that the restrooms are well kept, and golf carts are provided to transport guests from the parking lot to the venue. The venue also comes with Chris and Maria as your day of coordinators who could not have been any more helpful. These two made the day stress free and handled everything. Chris did a good job of keeping everyone on schedule and transitioning between the timeline smoothly. She was also very prompt in her responses to questions I had during the planning process, and really listened to what I wanted during the coordinator meeting. Chris and Maria helped with bustling my dress, and they setup all the décor exactly as specified.

This venue is absolutely breathtaking both inside and outside. We had our ceremony outside and 10 minutes after it started pouring so we had the reception indoors and it was amazing to be able to take advantage of all the spaces in the Villa. Chris, the on-site day of coordinater made sure everything was on time and stress free for us! I really appreciated that support especially when trying to make a rain plan and getting all the vendors on the same page. We got so many compliments on the beauty and class of the event space. I would 100% recommend to anyone who is looking for a gorgeous well priced venue in the Austin area!

Villa Antonia is absolutely magical! Everything about this venue is so perfect, from the Italian villa vibes, the view overlooking Lake Travis, and all of the different spaces you can utilize at this venue. Chris Spady, the venue coordinator, is such a joy to work with and was incredibly helpful in answering all of my questions (which was a lot since I was planning an Austin wedding from Dallas). Our friends and family could not stop talking about how beautiful our venue was, and I really believe pictures don't do this place justice. This was the only venue we looked at because I knew before we had even parked the car for our tour that we wouldn't find anything as breathtaking as this venue. I am forever grateful that I got to marry the love of my life in such a magical setting!

Anyone who steps foot onto Villa Antonia's property instantly knows how beautiful it is. The pictures and videos don't do the venue justice. The Italian villa feel, the stunning views, the endless space....it is all gorgeous. But, the real MVP of Villa Antonia is the service. Our coordinator, Chris Spady, was flawless. Aside from taking a group of stressed out people and making them each shine, she took care of every single detail...up to and including wrestling my wife's bustle into submission. She went above and beyond every step of the way. If you're looking for a venue for your special day, look no further. I would honestly recommend Villa Antonia over anyone else in Texas.

Please, do yourself a favor and get married here. Yes, the venue is incredibly beautiful. Yes, the view is stunning. Yes, Miss Chris is easily the most supportive, organized day-of coordinator one could hope for. But I think what really ties it all together is how well the vendor network knows each other and how well they know the venue. It’s a well-oiled machine completely deserving of its multiple “Best-Of” awards.

My husband and I got married at Villa Antonia in May 2019, and we absolutely could not have picked a more beautiful venue or more friendly staff than what we got here! First, let me just say that these pictures do not do Villa justice, it is 50x more beautiful and stunning in real life! We hardly got any decorations because the venue was gorgeous enough on its own!! While the venue was beautiful and reasonably priced, it's really the staff that I want to brag on because they are what made our wedding day so incredible! Chris Spady and her assistant Maria are two of the most wonderful people to work with! They are so attentive and you can tell they have been doing this for a long time because they made it look so easy! Chris helped us coordinate EVERYTHING about our wedding day, and gave us so much peace of mind for the big day! She took care of everything from telling our bridal party when to walk down the aisle to handing out the sparklers before our send off, and she did an incredible job! Maria was even kind enough to safety pin the train of my dress after it kept falling during the reception! Our wedding would not have been as fun and easy as it was if it weren't for these two lovely ladies and Dave, who served as our security officer and parking attendant during the evening. Thank you guys SO much for making our wedding such an incredible and memorable experience! This is the perfect place to get married, 20/10 would recommend!

My review and 5 star rating is based on our tour of Villa Antonia. We are from Houston. Our little brother and his fiance' are military living in Maryland and could not fly out to visit wedding venues. We are a tight knit family and would do anything for family!
We arrived about 20 mins late. We apologized to Jim, who is our tour guide. He is so professional and patient with us. Upon arriving to the Villa Antonia, there is some anticipation. You get there and the views, the estate is breath-taking! But having Jim there really help us imagine a wedding filled with fantastic moments our family is about to part-take in.
There are so many places to take pictures. I think that was what made our tour the longest. lol Villa Antonia is absolutely hands down, one of the best venues in Austin.
We are narrowing down the dates! We can't wait to experience Villa Antonia! Make beautiful memories! It is like you are in Europe!
Thank you Jim for taking the time to give us a great tour! It ruined it for all the other venues we saw that day! We saw a total of 5.
