Chateau Bellevue was the perfect venue for our wedding. We had around 60 people and it was the perfect size. The location of the venue was perfect and next to quite a few hotels, and also captures the history of Austin which makes it even more special. Food was included as part of the venue and it was INCREDIBLE - we received so many compliments from guests. Kate did such a wonderful job working with us to make sure everything was as smooth as possible (even being new to the venue and transitioning from a different person). I would absolutely recommend Chateau Bellevue if you’re looking for a smaller wedding and want a super intimate and elegant experience for your wedding.

Chateau Bellevue was the perfect wedding venue for us! It fit great into our budget, it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL (so many of our guests commented on it!), historical, and working with Amber was a breeze. She was so helpful anytime I had a small question through the planning, but especially in the last few days leading up and even a few days after blew us away with her service! She was super responsive and helpful and had great suggestions for things that worked well at the venue. We had a more intimate wedding (around 40 guests), and the space didn't feel packed, but didn't feel small either, and left us plenty of room to dance, so I highly recommend Chateau Bellevue if you've got a smaller guest count! And the food was awesome! It tasted even BETTER during the wedding than it did during the tasting. Pro tip: get the risotto balls for cocktail hour, everyone was obsessed with those haha. Their staff was also so sweet and helpful, and although I didn't actually make it to the bar myself all night, I heard their staff bartender did an amazing job and even improvised some cocktails when we started running out of ingredients. Overall, a great experience, and would highly recommend to any couples looking for a venue with a lot of character and history!

This venue is absolutely stunning! They include catering and the food was also delicious and the chef catered to our dietary needs. No need for rentals and they even let us borrow a few things for the reception. Amber was an absolute dream to work with. And it was in our budget! Can't have enough good things to say about this place.

I had my wedding on 6/1/2019 at Chateau Bellevue and it was the best day of my life!!!! From the first time I ever contacted them, everyone I spoke to was so professional, kind, and knowledgeable. It was love at first sight when we went to tour and made a decision to book that day and this was after touring 5 other venues (some even in Houston) but we felt so at peace with booking at Chateau Bellevue. I can't sing their praises enough because every staff member I encountered was amazing. They do all the catering which scared me at first but I went to the tasting and brought two girlfriends, we were absolutely blown away by everything we tasted. The food was sooo incredible it was hard to make a decision! I got to personally meet the chef that night and he made a hybrid menu for me to make sure I was able to include everything I wanted. When I went to have my alcohol and decor dropped off the day before the wedding, I met one of my bartenders (the in-house bartender) - I didn't have a signature drink and she offered to make one up for me (everyone couldn't stop talking about how good it was). Amber is the sales and events manager who I worked closely with and she puts her heart and soul into her job! She is one of the best people I've ever had the pleasure of working with and she made the whole process flawless. She went above and beyond trying to make sure everything was perfectly organized and truly made me feel so special. The venue speaks for itself in it's beauty, but the staff there is what truly made it all perfect. I could keep writing paragraphs about how wonderful Amber and everyone was. Thank you for the most perfect day - y'all made it all happen.

Amber at Chateau Bellvue was a dream to work with. She helped with every step of planning and gave great suggestions on how to use the venue best to meet our needs. We looked at many historic venues where we would have gone far over our budget renting things that were standard at Chateau Bellvue. The food was wonderful, the building is breathtaking, the staff caring and competent and the food was amazing!

We had our wedding last month at Chateau Bellevue and are so happy we chose this venue! We loved the classic style and felt that it was a great value for the price. The location cannot be beat-- our out of town guests were able to walk from downtown hotels. The food was great- we got so many rave reviews from guests. We had 90 guests, and the size of the venue was perfect. It felt cozy and intimate but not at all crowded. The staff was very responsive and accommodating. We were able to buy our own alcohol to bring in and then used their bartenders. This saved us so much money and really helped make our budget stretch. We are so thrilled that we found Chateau Bellevue and have the best memories of our wedding there.

I hosted my wedding reception at Chateau Bellevue 10 years ago (2008). It was a truly extraordinary experience from start to finish. The property is stunning, the staff professional, food was delicious, and the location is perfect.

Fast forward to 2018. I wanted to do something special for our 10 year anniversary. I contacted Caitlin who helped me plan something wonderful to surprise my wife.

A decade later the Chateau Bellevue Austin Woman's Club continues to impress me.

Thank you Caitlin, Mandy, and Chateau Bellevue for your help!

Having my wedding at Chateau Bellevue was a DREAM. The location is perfect (in downtown, but you wouldn't know it just looking around. It looks so elegant, and you can't even see the more modern buildings around from the ceremony area!)

Mandy was the one we were in contact with, and she was always prompt with her responses, and more than accommodating. I had multiple instances where I had to change things after confirming it prior (such as an appointment to view the venue, then had to change the date a week later) and she was always understanding. The rest of the staff were very helpful and the price for this venue is fantastic.

The food was spectacular. I still dream about their potatoes and crab cakes. We also had the beef tenderloin and it was cooked to perfection. My guests were all very impressed with the food and the venue, and the pictures turned out so well! I wanted to get married in a location with a little history and elegance and this venue was perfect. I couldn't have asked for anything more.

We got married at Chateau Bellevue in the romantic courtyard under the magnolia tree. Our ceremony was very intimate in the courtyard and we felt so connected to our guests. Following the ceremony, the upper lawn is the perfect place for guests to mingle during cocktail hour. If you have already toured this place, you know it is absolutely dreamy and I am sure you can imagine yourself as a princess in your own fairytale.

Beyond the charm and naturally romantic ambiance that embodies this gorgeous late 19th century chateau in historic downtown Austin, the staff that comes with it is equally as wonderful. While it may give you hesitation at first to not be able to select your caterer, do not worry! Both ourselves and the guests were gushing about the food! The head chef, Jeff, allowed us to customize our menu to exactly what we wanted, which was spiked with fall flavors. We even got to do a french fry bar during cocktail hour and I must say, they were some of the best fries of all time - and I am a fry aficionado! Aside from the food, the overall planning process with Mandy was so easy! She is super friendly and helpful and never made me feel like I was pestering her with the millions of questions I asked.
 
Last, and important to note, are two things: 1. We live in Houston and most of my family and friends live on the east coast, so it was a destination wedding. Chateau Bellevue is located centrally and is nice for those getting their first taste of Austin to be able to explore and have hotels so close by. 2. I avidly researched upwards of 25 venues in and around Austin. Chateau Bellevue hits every mark - it is reasonably priced versus comparable venues such as Allen House and Barr Mansion as well as venues further out like Camp Lucy and the Winfield Inn. However, you don’t sacrifice having a stunning wedding here!
 
I would wholeheartedly recommend CB to any prospective brides with confidence, and am so happy with the choice we made for our special day!

This is a great location especially if you have never planned a major party before, Mandy the event manager was very helpful in guiding us through the process and putting us in touch with really good vendors, plus the food is fantastic and the bartenders took the recipes we gave them and made up some great cocktails that our guests love. Plus the venue itself is a really beautiful piece of old Austin that is very close to downtown.
