Killer Austin Wedding Venues
First things first: the backdrop! Austin's got some seriously gorgeous wedding venues, and I've been lucky enough to snap some happy couples at a bunch of them. If you're dreaming of that romantic Hill Country vibe, Messina Inn in Wimberley is a total gem with views for days (and their coordinator, Cherri, is a sweetheart!). For a touch of old-school elegance, ColoVista Mansion in Bastrop is hard to beat. Closer to the ATX action, Springdale Station is all kinds of cool with its industrial-chic feels, and Chapel Dulcinea is just the sweetest spot for an outdoor ceremony. Nature lovers, you'll swoon over The Green House at Driftwood and Addison Grove – seriously enchanting! And for something a little different, Wish Well House has that quirky Austin charm. Trust me, these wedding venues near Austin are all winners!

Let's be real, wedding planning can get a little crazy. That's where these amazing Austin wedding coordinators and planners swoop in to save the day! Adaobi with Events in a Crunch is like a ninja of organization, handling every detail like a pro. You already know I love Cherri at Messina Inn – she is the in-house coordinator for Messina Inn, and makes everything seamless. Lindsay with In Her Shoes Coordination brings a super chill and organized vibe, and Ashley with Ashley Nicole Affair creates seriously wow-worthy events. And a big shout-out to Nichelle with Becka Laine for being so on top of everything! Having a fantastic wedding planner in Austin (or nearby!) means you can actually enjoy being engaged. Score!
Awesome Austin Wedding Officiants
The ceremony words? Super important! I've witnessed some truly beautiful moments thanks to awesome Austin wedding officiants like Scott Payne, who brings so much heart to every ceremony. And Evelyn with IDO 4LOVE is another fantastic choice – she creates such personal and Nancy Woods who provides meaningful services for couples all over Austin and Central Texas. Finding an officiant you connect with makes your ceremony extra special.


Gorgeous Austin Wedding Florists
Flowers = instant pretty! And Austin's got some seriously talented wedding florists. I'm always blown away by the magic that Posey Floral, Marion Events Floral, Native Botanicals, and Wild Bunches Floral create. These Austin florists have such unique styles and can bring any floral vision to life, from super romantic bouquets to the coolest modern installations. They're basically flower masters.

These Austin bakeries will make sure your wedding cake (and other goodies!) are a total hit.

They were part of that dream team!) are just incredible. And Rachel Hill Makeup is another fave for her beautiful and natural artistry. These Austin beauty pros will have you and your crew looking picture-perfect!
