Brand new venue, we booked in early March when the venue wasn’t even complete yet. A little nerve racking as a bride living in Houston who was on a tight budget and time frame. We wanted an August wedding mostly due to our budget and price of venues for the seasons. I reached out very last minute about a tour since we’d be in the area for a day looking at venues and wanted to add one more to our hunt. Amanda at Villa at the Vineyard responded immediately and was so helpful. She allowed us to come the next morning for a tour and was so friendly and accommodating. From the moment we met, throughout the wedding planning, leading up to the big day, she was responsive, assuring, flexible, and genuine. She went above and beyond for us and didn’t go unnoticed. This venue was perfect for us and our big day. 10/10 recommend.

My husband and I had our wedding here a couple of months ago. There are many aspects about this place that make it unique, which is why we chose it after a year-long search for the right venue. We couldn't have been happier with our experience. First and foremost, the Director, Amanda, went above and beyond to answer questions throughout our entire planning process (which is NOT standard but she has like a decade of experience in this industry and offers support anyway). Second, the location is incredible, it doesn't feel like Texas, it feels like a remote Italian villa, hence the name lol. The building is so beautiful that you really don't NEED a ton of decor for it to feel elegant. The vineyard, especially in the spring/summer months, is the most gorgeous backdrop for the outdoor ceremony site. Third, the bride and groom suites are unmatched. I had 30 people in my bridal party (crazy, I know ha) and we had plenty of room. The spaces are decorated with modern and chic elements that make the day feel that much more special. Lastly, it's the details for me! The restrooms are very clean, spacious and elegant looking. The fountain in the front (where we did our first look) is so romantic. The outdoor patio area with fairy lights is inviting. The landscaping was in perfect condition. The hideaway door/stairwell connected to the bridal suite for the bride to use was so convenient. The ability to bring in our own vendors helped us reduce our cost significantly. The flexibility of this space really allows you to make it your own for your event. Highly recommend!!!

It was a comfortable place to get ready in for my daughter’s wedding. The venue was beautiful and looking out over the vineyard made it even more special. I felt like I was in the Italian countryside.

Villa at the Vineyard was an amazing place for my daughter's wedding in October. The accommodations were impeccable and the venue was able to handle all the different areas of service for the wedding including great setups for catering to multiple bar setups on the patio. The landscape was gorgeous around the Villa. The road in and out was very easy to access for all parties as well.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Villa at the Vineyard. The space and grounds are gorgeous and Amanda, the venue director, was fantastic to work with. I can't say enough good things about her or the venue! The space itself is beautiful. Even though florals weren't a large part of our budget, I loved the minimal look of the choices we made in the big, beautiful reception hall! The vineyard outside was stunning and made a fantastic photo backdrop. The getting ready areas were comfortable, well-equipped, and well-lit, so we had a great time getting ready with our friends beforehand (and all the getting ready photos in that area were beautiful too). Even the drive out from Austin was beautiful and easy, which was nice for our out of town guests. I especially appreciated the flow encouraged by the event space's layout, with the ceremony area next to the patio where we had our cocktail hour and the dramatic staircase leading to the reception hall. None of the spaces had to be turned over to serve double-duty, which made setup easy and kept our guests flowing between spaces that felt natural. Also, just to rave a little bit -- Amanda was an absolute lifesaver when we had trouble with our original venue, mere months before our wedding date. Amanda and our planner worked magic to make it possible for us to make a smooth last-minute switch to Villa at the Vineyard. Making that change brought our joy back and transformed our event! I'm thankful that the stars aligned so that the space happened to be free on our date (a Thursday) and that Amanda was so on top of things and easy to work with. Between Amanda and our wedding planner, working with Villa at the Vineyard was absolutely effortless. After our experience with the original venue, believe me when I say -- that's not something I take for granted at ALL. While the space itself is new, it comes with Amanda's deep expertise in managing wedding venues and familiarity with local wedding resources, and I consider that a tremendous perk. I loved having our wedding at Villa at the Vineyard and I would choose it again in a heartbeat!
