For weddings, Hawk's Shadow hosts rehearsal dinners for up to 40 guests in its limestone barrel cellar, with ceremonies held on a stone terrace overlooking the rolling hills. Larger receptions can spread across the tasting room and patio, which offer indoor-outdoor flexibility and sweeping Hill Country views.

Mayfield Park - Cottage and Gardens is a 23-acre historic property in Austin, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its centerpiece is a white cottage built between 1860 and 1880 and purchased in 1909 by Allison Mayfield, a former Texas Secretary of State and Railroad Commission chairman, whose family added the cottage's porches and a stone-and-wood pergola patio. Just under two acres of walled garden surround the cottage, with water lily and lotus ponds enclosed by antique rock walls, 32 volunteer-tended garden beds, and the largest stand of Sabal Texana palm trees north of the Rio Grande. Free-roaming peafowl, descended from birds gifted to the park in 1937, along with herons, koi, and turtles, share the grounds. The property hosts small private gatherings, including weddings, baby showers, proposals, and memorial services, as well as meetings, lectures, classes, and small retreats. Up to 45 guests may gather inside the cottage, with a maximum of 100 guests total across the cottage and gardens.

The Creek Haus is a family-owned destination wedding and retreat property tucked into a secluded valley in the Texas Hill Country near Dripping Springs, just outside Austin. Rather than renting out for a single day, The Creek Haus books in multi-day weekend stays, giving couples and their guests a full destination experience rather than a quick turnaround. At the heart of the property sits the Barn, a reception space with moody industrial charm — Edison bulb lighting, a custom fireplace, and an indoor bar stocked with keg taps and a margarita machine. A covered open-air pavilion extends off the Barn for cocktails and conversation, while ceremonies take place outdoors beneath mature oak trees, with weather backup built in for peace of mind. Overnight lodging is part of what sets The Creek Haus apart: the Main Haus, Barn Haus, and Honeymoon Haus sleep up to 70 guests between them, so wedding parties, family, and friends can stay right on the grounds for the whole celebration. The property is a sister venue to Vista West Ranch, located less than a mile away under the same family ownership, and beyond weddings, The Creek Haus also welcomes wellness retreats and family gatherings drawn to its creekside, valley setting.

Built in 1949 on a 280-acre homestead in Sunset Valley, just 10 minutes from downtown Austin, the Brodie Homestead barn spent nearly 50 years housing cattle, horses, and donkeys before its 2011 purchase by Daniel and Vicki Ross, owners of Austin's Allan House. After an extensive renovation, the family-owned venue opened for events in 2014, and its 38-foot wooden gambrel roof, original cathedral-like ceilings, and large stone walls remain from the historic structure. Six crystal chandeliers, rafter uplighting, and Edison bulb globe lighting illuminate the barn wood and white limestone interior, while custom white draping can divide the more than 4,200 square feet of indoor space into smaller areas. Brodie Homestead hosts weddings, corporate events, holiday celebrations, and non-profit fundraisers, accommodating up to 350 guests standing or 250 seated for a reception, with rentals including exclusive use of the space for 10 hours, two private loft changing suites, a catering prep kitchen, and a stone wall hook system for hanging greenery and florals.
