Brittany S. Sent on 02/12/2022Beautiful, perfect venue!
Bella Oaks was the perfect venue for our wedding! We loved the different spaces that they offer, while still maintaining a cohesive feel. We had our ceremony underneath the big oaks at sunset and it was absolutely gorgeous. We used the space behind the groom’s suite for the cocktail areas and it was wonderful. Our guests loved the yard games, string lights and pretty white chapel for photos. The bride and groom’s suites are perfect for getting ready and hanging out before the ceremony. There is space in the bottom floor of the bride’s suite for the catering staging area and there is also room for a band green room in either the bride’s suite or the groom’s suite. The reception pavilion was the perfect size for our ~175 person wedding! If the weather is nice, there is the option to slide open the glass walls to have an outdoor feel. The venue spaces (including the restrooms) were very clean and our guests had a fantastic time! -

Venue was absolutely beautiful. Plenty of space for all of our guests to spread out. No issues before, during, or after. -

Meredith Sent on 01/07/2020Beautiful venue - staff helped ensure everyone was able to enjoy themselves
Antebellum Oaks is an incredible venue - beautiful outside spaces and wonderful indoor banquet hall. We used the upper courtyard for a chapel-style wedding and spread lawn games and the bar in the area surrounding the oaks for cocktail hour. Multiple guests throughout the evening complimented the venue to me - Not something you usually hear as the bride!
Additionally, my husband's father was unwell from cancer complications at the wedding, and the venue made special effort to accommodate him - opening up the groom's cabin for he and a few guests to lay down for a quieter celebration. They also helped accommodate a few guests who needed wheelchairs. These were all things we did not even realize during the event, but found out later from the guests who were helped. I highly recommend this venue and to book it alongside Austin Occasions, who as a great relationship with the venue. -

User2208662 Sent on 07/02/2015This venue is spectacular. The outside site for the ceremony and the reception hall are wonderful for an outdoor wedding. If this wasn't enough, the staff at AO went above and beyond! They only work with the best of the best, so the vendors they recommend are all great options. If you are considering booking at this venue, do it now. This place books up fast! -

User1906980 Sent on 11/05/2014Simply amazing! I can not say enough wonderful things about this venue and Diana the owner. My Mom had come in from out of town to visit and wanted to see the venue before the big day. Diana not only brought us through the entire process but was so kind to my Mom that it warmed my heart. Anyone that is kind to my Mom is an angel in my book. I had some trouble with my wedding planners and Diana was so comforting and supportive. I can't thank Antebellum Oaks enough! the place looking amazing on the day of and the decorations were beautiful.
Thank you again Antebellum Oaks, We love you!

I worked with Rebecca initially when signing with Antebellum Oaks, she was extremely responsive and kind. She even brought us a bottle of champagne when we signed our contract! The venue is stunning from every angle. There are two areas to get married, under the lit oak trees, or under string lights that come together at a small chapel. You can also get married inside the spacious venue should the weather not permit an outdoor wedding. They were very clear on contracts and rules about the venue, we never felt confused. We had a meeting closer to the date with Diana, the owner, who is also extremely nice and helpful. She helped compile a layout for the day of and review all final details. The day of the rehearsal and wedding day went off without a hitch and everyone raved at how beautiful the venue was. One feature we fell in love with was that the glass windows on the main area and stack back an open to the beautiful surrounding landscape...that was the selling point for us. :) -

Cari Sent on 05/21/2015As a bride who loves being outdoors, Antebellum Oaks was a dream come true. I had never imagined what my wedding would be like prior to getting engaged, but I always knew that I had to get married outside. Diana at AOV was a delight--wedding planning can be very stressful, but she made everything so easy and was willing to meet with us whenever it was convenient for us (we planned most of our wedding from 3 hours away) and always made sure to answer all of our questions. Initially my only complaint was with the flexibility with their preferred vendors. I totally understand why Diana had implemented a preferred vendors list, but there wasn't a wide variety of choices or a wide range of prices initially. Most of the caterers were around $40+ per person and you were required to go through DNA Events for bartending and some catering. If you've read some of the other reviews of AOV, you probably saw that DNA Events is a nightmare and my husband and I can fully attest to that. That's a (long) story for another day however, and thankfully about six months before our wedding Diana announced an expanded vendor list, which included more dining and bartending options. You CAN go through a vendor of your choice not on the list (which we did for our photographer and coordinator), you just have to make sure they submit all of their insurance information to Diana. We're going through an insane El Nino season in central Texas so it's been raining for weeks and I was terrified that our outdoor ceremony would get rained out (thankfully, it was sunny ALL day), but because of the various options AOV offered, we knew that we could easily move our ceremony inside if the weather was nasty; Diana was honestly prepared for anything. It seemed as if all of our 100 guests raved over the beauty of the grounds as well as the buildings. Overall, I would recommend Antebellum Oaks without hesitation.
