Great venue with lots of character and history

Wedding Dreams

This was the perfect venue for our wedding. Anna, the venue manager, was one of the kindest souls I've ever met. She gave us recomendations FOR AN AMAZING coordinator to help with the day of needs. As a teacher and graduate student, she made everything run so smoothly. It was a family affair, and Anna and her husband were like family that day. Our parents are still talking about the kindness and ethusiasm from both her and Brandy. I feel so blessed to have met her and have had her as our venue manager that day. If you're looking for above and beyond customer service from genuine kind souls, The Settlement will not disaapoint.

Amazing! Best outdoor venue in texas

If I could give 10 stars to this venue, I would. I cannot tell you how wonderful it was working with The Settlement, and especially with their new manager, Anna. The management changed shortly before our wedding and I was w bit nervous that Anna wouldn’t know what was going on. I could not have been more wrong. She went above and beyond to make sure everything went as planned. She helped find vendors when some of ours fell through, she set up all day with us, and she was an absolute joy the entire time. We had multiple vendors on site, s’mores at the bonfire, and we even had a Ferris wheel. The Settlement was the perfect location and size and I think they’ve found their perfect manager. Anna, Ben and I cannot thank you enough for making sure our wedding went as planned. I would recommend The Settlement and working with Anna to anyone looking for the best outdoor, rustic, barn wedding venue in Texas!

Beautiful, quiet and charming venue

We had a great time at our June wedding, the inside barn was great for dinner and dancing. We had always wanted to get married outside under a large tree and 1850 had the perfect spot!

The settlement circa 1850 or the 1850 settlement was amazing! We had our wedding 4/8/2017 on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon. The Settlement provided the most perfect setting for the guests to enjoy the gorgeous weather of San Antonio. I fell in love with a rustic chic barn wedding when I started planning, and this was the closest barn from San Antonio. Besides the convenience of location, the barn itself is amazing. The details of the original settlement and the record of the newly built barn really sets it apart from any other venues we visited. The owners could not be more friendly. They even bought out a surprise pony named miss Scarlett during our cocktail hour that won the heart of all the guests. Our parents could not be more happy with our wedding and our guest could not stop gushing over how nice and fun the wedding was! Picking this venue was the best decision we made. The best part is the owner is relentless in improving the facilities constantly. By the time we had our wedding, there were so many more nice surprise updates in the facility and the decor that weren't even present when we signed our lease a year earlier! i would definitely recommend this venue and perhaps come back for our vow renewals in the future!

We recently had our wedding at The 1850 Settlement, with rave reviews from all of our guests!
Working with Amanda was easy and she was very quick to follow up on emails and answer ALL the questions I had throughout the process.
I'd recommend The 1850 Settlement to anyone looking for a wedding venue! It was a great experience!

I was seriously so in love with my venue. It had everything I was looking for. It had this amazing rustic barn with old fashioned lights. It was snug in the hill country where it felt intimate but was not too far away from the city where it was too far of a drive. The color of windows on the old buildings inspired my wedding colors which was blush and aqua. It matched the theme amazingly. I would definitely recommend this venue to brides who want either a rustic theme or a vintage theme. Either way, it's one of the most unique and special places to have a wedding.

Gorgeous venue and wonderful staff!

My wedding happened during a a venue manager transition period. It was a little uncomfortable and confusing at the beginning but once Anna (the new manager) took over she made our experience so much easier. She was very helpful before and during the event. She played a major role in having a flawless wedding.
