Thurman's Mansion is a 7,000-square-foot, two-story native limestone building in Driftwood, Texas, named for the late Thurman Roberts, founder of the Salt Lick BBQ. Originally intended as the Roberts family home, the mansion was repurposed as a wedding and event venue and remains a member of the Salt Lick family today. Ceremonies take place overlooking the property's Hill Country vineyard, with couples exchanging vows as the sun sets over the surrounding hills. Wedding packages include use of the space for four and a half hours with a two-hour early arrival window for vendors, sixty-inch round tables set with white linens, bone china, and silverware, and draped tables for the gift, registry, cake, and head table. Couples hosting ceremonies on-site also receive use of bride and groom quarters beforehand, along with chair setup and an optional archway at the ceremony site. Catering comes courtesy of the venue's sister restaurant, the legendary Salt Lick BBQ, whose menu is available alongside custom options put together with the mansion's event coordinators. The mansion also hosts private and corporate events and rehearsal dinners.

Voodoo Doughnut's 6th Street shop sits on Austin's historic Sixth Street entertainment district, one of eleven Voodoo Doughnut locations across the country that doubles as a wedding chapel. The brand traces its roots to a small storefront between two nightclubs in Portland's Old Town, opened in 2003 by Kenneth "Cat Daddy" Pogson and Tres Shannon on a mix of hospitality and showmanship; the shop's inventive, offbeat doughnuts have since drawn national media coverage from outlets including the Travel Channel, Good Morning America, and Food & Wine. At the Austin location, couples can be legally married in ceremonies lasting three to five minutes, complete with a ceremonial circle of sprinkles and blessings from a Spirit Channeler. Packages range from intimate ceremonies for up to 9 guests to Sweet Celebrations for up to 40, and include custom doughnut centerpieces, newlywed dolls made in the couple's likeness, and coffee service. The shop also creates custom wedding doughnut catering for receptions of 10 to 200-plus guests, with all catering orders picked up in-store on the event day.
