Lone Star Riverboat Cruises operates a fleet of environmentally friendly, electric-powered vessels on Lady Bird Lake in downtown Austin, offering narrated sightseeing tours, seasonal sunset bat-watching cruises, and private charters for weddings, receptions, and other celebrations.

Swift's Attic occupies the second floor of a historic downtown Austin building at 3rd and Congress, originally built in 1905 as the home of the Swift's Premium Food Co. The space pairs its original exposed brick and timber with modern touches, giving group dinners and private gatherings a distinctive backdrop above the street. The kitchen serves modern American shareable plates with a farm-to-table focus and a rotating menu that draws on global flavors, making it well suited to group dinners where guests sample a range of dishes together. The bar complements the food with 14 draft beers, an extensive bottled beer and by-the-glass wine list, and a craft cocktail program that includes an ice tap and ice ball cocktails. While Swift's Attic does not have a dedicated private room, it accommodates intimate dinners and larger celebrations — from birthdays and anniversaries to corporate functions and executive dinners — in its Lounge and semi-private sections, with options for full restaurant buyouts.

Capital Cruises has operated on Lady Bird Lake in Austin since 1991, docking at the Hyatt Regency on Barton Springs Road. Its fleet ranges from the flagship M.V. Pride and Joy II, a 75-foot double-decked yacht with a climate-controlled lower deck, down to intimate electric Myachts and self-driven Donut Boats, giving planners a boat sized to nearly any group. Cruises take in views of the downtown Austin skyline, Zilker Park, limestone bluffs, and the Congress Avenue Bridge bats, and the company's private charters are built around that scenery for weddings, rehearsal dinners, bachelor and bachelorette parties, and corporate outings. Guests can bring their own food and beverages, arrange plated catering, or add a margarita machine, band, DJ, or casino night, and boats can be decorated for the occasion (excluding confetti, rice, and similar items that could harm the lake). Attire on board runs from black tie to Austin-casual summer wear, and most vessels include a stereo system so hosts can set their own soundtrack.

The Oasis on Lake Travis is a lakeside restaurant and event property built into the bluffs above Lake Travis in the Texas Hill Country outside Austin.

Spaces range from the loft-like Starlight Terrace, which accommodates up to 400 guests, to smaller rooms like Sunset Villa and Lakeside Terrace suited to business meetings and rehearsal dinners.

Ranch Austin is a wedding and private events venue in Southwest Austin, about 15 minutes from downtown, where longhorn cattle graze in the pasture and a windmill anchors the ceremony grounds. As the venue describes itself, it's "beautiful without her makeup on, stunning when all dolled up" — designed to suit both rustic and elegant styles rather than one look alone. The property combines a climate-controlled indoor banquet hall, seating up to 160 guests, with an outdoor space spanning more than 10,000 square feet of patio shaded by large oaks wrapped in white lights. Ceremonies can take place at the windmill or beneath the covered stage, and the outdoor patio includes a covered bar and a covered gas fire surround for cocktail hour and receptions. The venue provides two separate dressing rooms for the wedding party, a catering prep kitchen, and a 12-hour event access window, along with tables, chairs, and a preferred list of approved vendors for catering, rentals, and other event services.
