The Little Chapel in the Woods is a hidden gem on the Texas Women's University campus. It is a…read morebeautiful venue, often otherwise known as a wedding Chapel. I toured the place and learned of it's history, which is pretty interesting. The place was built during the Great Depression as part of the National Youth Administration. Over 300 TWU students participated in its building and creation, even making the stained glass windows that adorn this architectural piece. It was named one of Texas' most outstanding architectural achievements. Ironically it was even designed by a Denton resident who is also a nationally recognized architect, O'Neil Ford. Now you ready for the coolest face? This place was dedicated and opened on November 1, 1939 by none other than First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, right here in Denton, Texas!

We went to a lively wedding last night at this venue…read more First the good, aesthetics were beautiful. Grounds were very photogenic and well kept. Parking was plentiful. They chapel was separate from the reception area. Very comfortable. The backdrop for the ceremony was sweet. After the ceremony, the guests walked over to the reception area on a nice paved walkway. The back lawn had turf instead of real grass so walking around that area was easy. We went into the building for cocktails and appetizers. Here's where I had issues. If you are not going to let guests sit down at the dinner tables, for whatever reason, provide seating elsewhere. There was no seating available in the cocktail area or outside. Have some conversation areas. Have a couple of fire pits for February weddings and events. Weddings have elderly guests. Elderly guests need to sit. One bar. When you have 150 people for a wedding, provide more than one bar. Standing in line is not a pleasant experience. Especially when after you get your drink and appetizer, there is nowhere to sit for an hour or so. Now back to the good. The food. I saw one of the servers had Patriot Pig on her shirt so I'm assuming that is where the BBQ came from. It was The Best wedding food we've experienced. The brisket was moist and fabulous. I asked the server in the buffet line for a piece with some fat and he didn't look at me like I was crazy. The green beans were flavorful. Mac and cheese was homemade as were the mashed potatoes. Desserts, little banana puddings, 5 stars. Little apple pies, 1 star, not done at all. I'm not sure where the naked wedding cake came from but it was delicious! The DJ kept things moving but like always in these large barn style venues, the sound was terrible. The staff was all very kind and helpful. The bartenders remained professional even with a constant line all night. Overall a lovely venue with just a couple of misses. Sorry, not many photos.

From a guest perspective its an absolutely stunning backdrop for a romantic and elegant wedding and also provides great space and accommodations for when the party really starts rocking. As a vendor this venue flows so naturally and allows space for all vendors to have their own operating area out of the way of guests and viewing area. The venue is a family owned and operated business and they are so involved and invested in their brides and guests - you simply can't ask for better service! This venue is stunning and any bride or guest lucky enough to get married or attend a wedding at this venue should count their blessings!

My daughter only had 6 months to plan a wedding so venue choices were very difficult! We stummbled into this gorgeous place and I had to pinch myself..DONE and DONE! Booked it as soon as I saw it.. Amazing things about this place 1. Daughter wanted all the wedding party to stay on site and basically have a love and Party fest.. Many many bedrooms accomodated EVERYONE and we had a lot in the wedding party! 2. The man cave/ BUNK HOUSE - pool ping pong and bunk beds.. we had several guests that were just a tad to party happy, so we escorted them to the bunkhouse.. The groomsmen played card games and had a wonderful time there.. Its a bunkhous that is just a few yards away from the mail house.. 3. The main house.. DROP dead gorgeous and we had 50 people for the rehersal dinner! Big cozy fireplace and an intimate gathering made everyone toast and tell wonderful stories about the bride and groom.. 4.OMG they have beautiful working hunting doggies! I am not a hunter, but they included a hunt for the groomsmen and their man friends..I enjoyed watching the dogs work..What a beautiful afternoon..and the hunters came home with a LOT of QUAIL! 5. NEW wedding Chapel was just completed and is just so so beautiful.. We had 130 guest and it was plenty of room for dancing and all the tables food and buffet set up! 6.

I just loved her..She was very special and so caring..She is truly a treasure! 7. The nature- not much decor needed here.. this place is on a lot of acreage and the chapel faces sunset.. so the natural beauty is peaceful and just lovely..

I parked the bus in the casino parking lot nearby. There are lots of things to do inside, and there was a lot of space to do it. Seriously, it could handle a huge crowd with multiple parties happening. There is a lot of space to walk and move. You pay for everything at a central location. The glow in the dark mini golf is 9 holes and has very thoughtfully painted displays. It doesn't look like an elementary student's diorama. There is also a place for someone to have a party gathering inside the glow room. Very cool. There are lots of bowling lanes and pool tables. There is a lazer tag area. I didn't play, but my students had a really fun time. I know there was a group of 15 that played together. The arcade was good, and I appreciated the amount of walking space among the games. It had several driving games and lots of ticket-earning games. One of the air hockey tables was out of commission. All the games required a swipe card, and tickets are saved to the card for redemption later. Food is available. Standard concession stand fare. Employees were helpful and easy to find.
