About

Waterfront views open beyond a stone footbridge while wrought iron balconies frame a courtyard straight out of the Spanish countryside. As a Fort Worth wedding venue in Westlake, Texas, Chapel at Palacios blends Spanish villa architecture with genuine waterfront beauty.

Reflecting the elegance of a European wedding venue in Texas, Chapel at Palacios pairs a light-filled chapel with an oversized turf courtyard strung with lights for open-air ceremonies. Cocktail hour then unfolds on wrought iron balconies overlooking the water and stone footbridge. Your reception fills a ballroom framed by stone and Spanish villa detail, seating up to 200 guests.

Your celebration is carried by spacious getting ready suites for a calm start, dog-friendly ceremony spaces that welcome your whole family, flexible vendor packages built around a curated wedding experience, and white glove planning services that keep everything on course. Lawn games for guest entertainment and ample parking round out the day. Packages are also available with flexible add-ons for catering, bar service, entertainment, florals, and more.

Preparations unfold in the suite, the waterfront stretching beyond the stone architecture outside. The chapel ceremony begins as light pours through tall windows and wrought iron accents frame the space. Cocktail hour draws guests onto the balconies, footbridge and water as the backdrop. The reception then fills the ballroom, the celebration picking up pace beneath rustic wrought iron chandeliers.

Chapel at Palacios has been honored as a 2-time winner of Wedding Wire's Couples' Choice Award, most recently in 2026. For more than 20 years, this team has kept raising the bar for the couples it serves. Backed by 40+ reviews from couples across the Fort Worth area, Chapel at Palacios continues to earn strong recommendations.

A Wedding Dream Brought to Life by Whitney Rosimini!

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)

When it came to planning our dream wedding, my husband and I were fortunate enough to cross paths with the incredible Whitney Rosimini. From the very beginning of our wedding planning journey, Whitney's dedication, professionalism, and creativity shone through, turning our special day into an absolute fairytale.

Whitney's attention to detail is truly unparalleled. Every single aspect of our wedding was flawlessly executed, from the stunning floral arrangements that adorned the venue to the meticulously planned timeline that ensured our day flowed seamlessly. Her ability to capture our vision and bring it to life surpassed all our expectations.

Communication with Whitney was a breeze. She was always just a call or an email away, ready to address any questions or concerns we had. She listened intently to our ideas, making us feel valued and understood throughout the entire process. Her expertise and guidance were invaluable, helping us navigate decisions with ease and confidence.

One of the standout qualities of Whitney is her unwavering calmness, even in the face of unexpected challenges. She radiates a sense of assurance that instantly put us at ease, allowing us to fully enjoy our wedding day without worrying about any behind-the-scenes hiccups. Her ability to adapt and problem-solve on the spot is a testament to her professionalism and experience.

What truly sets Whitney apart is her genuine passion for her work. It's clear that she's not just an event coordinator, but a true artist who takes immense pride in curating experiences that will be cherished forever. She has an eye for design that translates into breathtaking aesthetics, creating an atmosphere that left our guests in awe.

Our family and friends are still raving about the magical evening Whitney orchestrated. From the charming entrance to the heartfelt speeches and the energetic dance floor, every moment was a reflection of the thought and care Whitney put into the planning process.

If you're looking for an event coordinator who will go above and beyond to make your dreams come true, Whitney Rosimini is the one to trust. Her dedication, creativity, and genuine warmth are a rare find, and we feel incredibly blessed to have had her as a part of our wedding journey. Whitney, you turned our vision into a reality, and for that, we're forever grateful. Thank you for making our day so spectacular!

With heartfelt appreciation,

Yves Mafumba and Chancelle Fuzuka

Beautiful Eurpoean style, water front venue for making wonderful memories.

I am crying happy tears thinking about my daughter's wedding at Chapel at Palacios. From the time we first walked in the venue, we knew this was the place she would be married to the love of her life. It is beautiful and elegant, while affordable.

Chapel at Palacios is European-style, water front, and romantic. It also has such a fun vibe. Our guests loved it. Everyone had so much fun!

We had an amazing sit down dinner, outside and inside open bars, and awesome, friendly staff. In addition, the outdoor grass area was perfect for cocktail hour with appetizers and our special guest, Highland cow, Hank Williams Jr.

What else makes Chapel at Palacios so special? Kelsye, our coordinator and her team were wonderful. We remained stress free, many thanks to Kelsye. Also Payton and Hector were right there, helping with anything we needed.

If you are looking for a venue that can do everything at an affordable price, I highly recommend Chapel at Palacios. It is centrally located and close to DFW airport, hotels and great restaurants.

As my daughter said, her wedding was everything and more than she had dreamed it would be.
Thank you Chapel at Palacios and Walters Wedding Estates. We are forever grateful for a venue that helped create so many special memories.♥️

Great venue and coordinator

My daughter got married here on August 31, 2025. Brenda did a fabulous job in making every thing run smoothly that day couldn’t ask for a better coordinator! Even when we had a boutonnière issue she went and was able to throw one together for us.

Definitely recommend!!

I am getting married at the Chapel at Palacios here in a month and this process has been so beautiful. I helped my sister plan her wedding and it was so incredibly stressful but with this venue being all inclusive it has taken so much off my plate. From our wedding consultant Nick taking plenty of time with us between all the venues to my planners Payton and Brenda I could not be more thankful. Brenda has truly had our back through the whole planning process and been such a joy to work with. I cannot wait for my wedding day!!
