I came a little late, so there was a row of chairs in the very back. It offered a first glimpse of the bridesmaids and bride walking in. The inside is simple gorgeous, yet at the same time quaint and beautiful. Lovely bright windows make it perfect for a morning, afternoon or evening wedding. It can be dark if it was on a day without natural lighting. The grounds are gorgeous, and I cannot imagine how much more beautiful it would be on a summer day. We went to a winter wedding in January, but the garden area was still very nice with metal arches and some foliage around. The event space is perfect for anyone who loves glass windows and light. It pours through into the dining area and offers a lovely outdoor view. I can see it might be challenging in the summer with the heat from the windows, but it was simply perfect for this event. There's a long hall that is perfect for a buffet or dancing that offers some privacy from the dining area. I like how you can split up the activities so there is not so much crowding or awkward people watching during the buffet table and dancing. I would highlight recommend any prospective brides or event planners to check our this space. There's a lot you can do with it, despite being a little far from town.

BRIDES BEWARE. At first I was so excited to have found this venue. The chapel, reception space, and…read moreon-site accommodations seemed too good to be real when I signed the contract... boy was that true! The price is affordable, but the manager (Pedro) sent me 2 different invoices trying to charge me different prices AFTER I signed my contract. I had to forward him our previous emails with the contact and then screenshot and re-send the prices listed on the venue's website in order to make sure I was getting the correct price. When we did our final walk thru we talked about having the decorations (fake flowers, candelabras, table, etc.) in the chapel removed and Pedro told me that was no problem. He did not mention any additional price for the removal, nor was that listed in the contract but THE MORNING OF MY WEDDING he strong armed my father out of $250 for him to have someone take them off the stage. The kicker was he didn't even have all of the decorations removed! The candelabras and table were still there and my bridesmaid had to do it for us. During the initial consultation I was told that we pay a fee and that covers the beer, wine and bartender and everything over that fee we settle at the end of the night. During the final walk thru my fiancé asked about liquor being served. Pedro told us if we purchased our own liquor he would be able to serve it. Due to the increase of guests (now over 100) the bar fee would increase from $500 to $795. Again, THE MORNING OF MY WEDDING, Pedro tells my fiancé that there is no beer or wine because he claimed we would be bringing the entire bar. When asked what the $795 for the "bar cost" on our invoice included Pedro said it covered the plastic cups, ice, and bartender. We had to have a family friend go to Costco 3 hours before the start of our wedding to get the alcohol needed so our guests could enjoy an open bar. There was a line item for "coffee and soda" on our invoice, which was supposed to supply separate soda from the bar. The only soda available was poured from un-refrigerated liter bottles and was used for both non-alcoholic and alcoholic soda servings. We were charged twice for sub-par refreshments and couldn't do anything about it because it was the day of our wedding. The accommodations are convenient, but include zero amenities. There were not enough towels for everyone, dead cockroaches in the Rectory House, sticky floors, poor plumbing, no cooking utensils or items (e.g. pans, baking sheets, pot holders, etc.), no coffee machine, and poor lighting with burned out or almost dead lightbulbs. We gathered our trash, but didn't have enough trash bags or any cleaning supplies to tidy the place before check out the next day at 9:00am. There is no welcome binder or information for what is expected at the end of the stay nor where to take the garbage. While we were packing up another bridal party was arriving to a dirty house, which begs the question of whether or not the sheets on the bed, houses, kitchens, and bathrooms were even cleaned before we got there. During the wedding reception, Pedro was the bartender not a hired professional like he implied. He made lewd comments to a few female guests and also proceeded to sell the venue's beer (which he originally claimed had no alcohol) for cash even though we had brought alcohol for an open bar. Cash tips were also paid out to Pedro since he was the bartender. Overall, I couldn't recommend this place for an afternoon brunch let alone a whole wedding. Our special day was marred by the unprofessionalism and crude behavior we experienced.

Just inside the iron gates are several patio areas and the facades of old-timey general stores and such. Inside the dance hall itself is a large dance floor, amply picnic seating (on two floors) Texas flags and sparkly celing lights and plenty of wall kitsch like posters of John Wayne. The bar is fully stocked and you can hire your own caterers. The hosts of our party had hired Bill Miller's BBQ to cater and they did a great job. The bartenders were quick and friendly and the bathrooms were clean. But the real centerpiece of awesome is the stage and stage bar. Our hosts hired a great band who kept us dancing and invited plenty of group participation, like having all the ladies take the stage and sing along to "Mustang Sally" and during "Sweet Home Alabama" they even got the bride up on the stage bar, which was then lit on fire, and had her dance on the bar and the flames danced at her feet. Seriously - Best. Wedding. Ever.

Look, the venue is absolutely beautiful and come time I walked down the isle everything was…read morebeautiful and perfect for pictures. The venue itself is not the problem it's who's running it. They wanted to nickel and dime you for any little thing or try to add something on the total and hope that you just pay it. And I say this because it's almost impossible to get a response from anyone here. Come my wedding, like the 2 weeks before, I needed questions answered but never got a response from anyone. I called, I texted, I emailed, and if I could smoke signal I would have, and still got nothing. My mom at one point tried calling as "new potential client" option on the phone & that's when they would answer. But after awhile they stopped answering all together. I didn't even have a bunch of questions or was even a bridezilla. The only time they would reach out by txt AND email was when they needed you to pay. I mean they just came off as greedy. They even tried to charge me an extra $1K for nothing. Like actually nothing, and I eventually got it taken off but that is so suspicious. Come day of wedding they didn't bother helping at all for anything. We had to bring everything off the trucks and set my reception up. The "free coordinator" was really only helpful to rush me the entire night bc we had to be out by the hr before we are supposed to leave. So that hr was money wasted, bc every hr we stayed later was $600 an hr. But yea the coordinator just rushed us the entire night and my husband & and I barely had time to relax. I mean I know that a wedding is supposed to be stressful, not "my day" bc whoever tells you that has never gotten married, but we barely got time to relax. The icing on the cake tho was that they closed the buffet super early and then threatened us that if we didn't leave before our time was or if there was ANYTHING they had to clean up, we wouldn't get our $500 deposit back. 3/5 because the only thing I actually enjoyed was my ceremony and the little food I got to eat. We also never got an announcement to do cake cutting. Like no one got to see us cut it, very depressing.

One thing that I did forget was a backpack, we got so much literature and other misc items, it was weighing us down. If you can convince your honey to come with you as well, that makes it a better experience in my book. I saw a lot of ladies alone there without their guys/significant others and I think that it helps to have the other half's opinion on everything you see to set a better direction. You will be very sick of cake and BBQ by the end of it, we got there at about 1ish and made him stay til the very end where they draw the prizes, that is the whole point in going as well....you could win up to $1,000 as the grand prize. My name scrolled by and they picked the person two names after for that, such a tease! But many women leave before this, so the chances are much better than winning the lotto that you will win these door prizes. I took a notebook with me as well to take notes, and took pictures as I could...some vendors say you can't take pictures. It was very helpful to talk with all of the wedding invitation vendors, if you are planning on doing your own invitations like I am...you get a few good ideas. Sign up for all of the drawings, I won a 50% discount on a photobooth for our wedding! So very happy days on that. The bridal bucks that they give you ($500 worth) can be used at select vendors, but they usually extend the deal to the next few weeks...so don't feel pressured to go with them the day off. We shopped around quite a bit for wedding photographers before deciding on one that we met at the show, it was nice to meet everyone and feel out their personality then and there. We were able to more effectively narrow down who we liked to schedule private meetings with them to go over the details better. The same applies for the caterers and bakeries. You will have to follow up with them though since so many people come through for the event, you have to be proactive. There are always deals to go here, I got in for free being the bride so it was basically a 2 for 1 deal. Don't ever pay full price for the ticket. I also encourage you not to give your name and number to the sponsors of the show because you will probably get spammed, I opted not too so the mailings have not been that terrible yet. Have a plan, we started on one side and made our way to the other side going up and down the rows...it will be very overwhelming and a mental drain on you but it is so very helpful in the wedding planning process to go to one of these shows. I do believe the January show is always the bigger show so just something to keep in mind if your planning schedule allows.
