Delightful!
This place is magical! The moment we arrived, we were, “greeted” by a mama doe and her three tiny fawns! My granddaughter’s wedding was the sweetest, most perfect day - even in mid-July’s heat. The crew in residence couldn’t have been more accommodating and kind. Sallie Reid took such a personal interest in the day. I’m anxious to see how the future of this haven unfolds as the Lord fulfills His plans!

The best experience ever!
Bluebird Haven is the most beautiful spot we found. From trees located everywhere on the grounds to the beautiful pond, water fountain and waterfall. We were happy because my son (getting married in March) and soon to be DIL loved not only the venue but LOVED the grounds. It is the perfect location as they both have family and friends coming from Dallas and Houston. Bluebird Haven is located right between the two cities. Another thing to add, the bridal suite is to die for! I was very impressed with the rates considering what Sallie has to offer. Sallie thought of every little detail to make your day special. She also offers a huge piece of your beautiful day to take with you. I’ll let her share that with you. We couldn’t be happier! As a mother wanting to make their child’s day not only perfect but special....I would highly recommend Bluebird Haven.
