Shopping Wedding Venues Part 1: Around San Antonio 

It’s almost impossible to plan a wedding at a location where every single one of your family members and friends reside. That’s why we suggest looking at venues that are between big cities, so it’s easier for your wedding guests to attend your special day. To start you off, we have four gorgeous wedding spaces that are perfect – and conveniently located around San Antonio – just for you. 

Vintage Charm in New Braunfels

Just outside of the New Braunfels city limits, surrounded by 52-acres of pristine Texas hill country is The Allen Farmhaus. Adding to a majestic backdrop is a historic 300-year-old oak tree that perfectly frames your view of the rolling land for miles. Inspired by vintage charm, this venue offers an open-air chapel with hand-selected antique glass windows and church pews. A real church steeple from Alice sits atop the idyllic chapel. 

Take a look at their reception barn with sliding barn doors so that your view of the gorgeous outdoors is never obscured. If you prefer, you can have a fully outdoors reception with a dedicated outdoor bar encircled with grand pecan trees, or use the outdoor pavilion as a cocktail hour space. Either way, your guests will enjoy the glorious Texas sky and Edison lights strung from tree to tree. In addition to these traditional spaces are areas for the bride and groom to get ready in. 

Tie the knot at this picture-perfect venue! 

Breathtaking Views in Rockport

You really can’t beat the view – or the sunsets – at the beaches along Aransas Bay. Designed with you in mind, Pavilions at Rockport Beach provides unforgettable waterfront views, along with the convenience of having indoor spaces available. With four pavilions available – two of which are indoors, the other two outdoors – you and your wedding guests can experience your wedding day in addition to having free access to an amazing beach! 

Imagine being surrounded by mature palm trees, cabanas, umbrellas, and taking picturesque walks over waterfront bridges. Photos are sure to be unforgettable at this gorgeous beach, but you also have the option to use this venue as a honeymoon location instead (or in addition to your wedding destination!). Nothing beats drinking a pina colada beachside with two newlyweds.

Natural Beauty in Bulverde

Nothing is better than having a beautiful, natural backdrop. No effort is needed – the natural beauty of 12 Oaks Hill Country Venue allows you to be as minimalistic or extravagant as you wish when it comes to decorating your ceremony and reception. The white-framed gazebo is the ideal ceremony area, with white folding chairs flanking the stone walkway for your wedding guests.  

Your wedding reception is strategically placed throughout the property, giving the impression of an intimate escape into nature. The bluebonnet fields offer astonishing photographic opportunities, while the greenery and trees serve a solid foundation for a hill country styled wedding. But if you are hoping for an indoor reception, not to worry. 12 Oaks is currently working on an indoor reception hall!
