Lovely and professional

This venue is absolutely stunning. From the indoor reception area to the outdoor ceremony space, every detail is spectacular. We searched high and low for a venue that checked all of the boxes. We wanted to stay away from the country barn style, but wanted a little touch of rustic charm. Keeping the catering and other venues within the budget also made a huge impact on our decision. Having Creekside in charge of everything made our day so much smoother. All I needed to worry about was decor, a timeline, and showing up to the alter. I stayed in the guest house the night before with my bridesmaids, and it was perfect! It has three bathrooms, several closets, five beds, mirrors, galore, and a kitchen. I used this space as the bridal suite, and it was everything I wanted. All of the amenities are great, but the owner's kind and honest demeanor was what sold us. From the beginning, Dan had everything organized and put together. We were provided a complete breakdown in price so we knew what we were paying and what we were going to receive before signing the dotted line. Complete transparency was not something we often came by on our search for the right venue. It was a breath of fresh air. When Covid-19 hit, Dan was understanding and allowed us to rescheduled. Our wedding party dropped off by 50%, and he was accommodating. It wasn't quite the turnout we anticipated, but they provided us with everything we needed and more. My photographer (Nowlens Photo Co.) was blown away by the creekside shots. I have to agree, it's stunning! Thank you to the Creekside staff for helping my family clean up after a wonderful evening. My husband and I both know a couple friends that have also married at this venue, and we highly recommend them, too!

Best venue, best price, best people

Creekside was amazing. My husband and I were looking for a venue that would work with us well. We were planning our wedding in the Austin area from out-of-state. Dan worked with us every step of the way. We had a meeting where we hammered a lot of details out. The rehearsal went well, and the wedding day was amazing. I felt like everything was taken care of and the day ran smoothly. The food was outstanding! We had Texas BBQ. The DJ did a great job at managing the reception time well.
I would say that everyone should book their wedding here. It was all around a great place to be at.

Guests loved the space and the food

Dan was great abouy walking us through all the options and aspects we should consider. He gave us great feedback and guidance. Staff was helpful and nonintrusive. We chose fajitas and they were a huge hit. The outdoor space is lovely. Manu options for where you want to have the officia ceremony on the grounds. Great value because most of the basics (tables, chairs, glassware, dishes, linens, bartender and food) available within contract.

Creekside is a gorgeous backdrop for a wedding. My daughter loved the chandaliers inside and all the greenery outside. Having the house to get for hair and make up was perfect. Dan and his staff are absolutely the best and are with you every step of the way. Awesome experience!

Amazing Venue!

I am so happy with my choice to have my wedding at Creekside. From the very beginning Dan was a pleasure to work with. He was patient in working with us and answering all of our questions, and really I could not have asked for a better venue, service-wise. Not to mention the fact that it's a beautiful venue with a large capacity, and multiple options for ceremony location.

The value is exceptional too. They offer one-price everything included for up to 150 guests, and you pay per guest after that. We chose the BBQ dinner and it was fantastic! It's also BYOB which helps to cover some of the alcohol expenses.

The day of, they really provide you with everything that you need, you could really do without a coordinator with everything that they provide.

The only reservation I had about this location is the distance from Austin city-center, and knowing that people were drinking and needed to get home. Because of this I provided bus service for my friends and those staying in town, which worked well, but added a little bit of an expense.

I would not hesitate to recommend Creekside to anyone looking for an outside venue around Austin.

I cannot say enough good things about Creekside. Dan was amazing and his BBQ was absolutely delicious. He even put on his chef hat and helped serve the amazing food! The room is beautiful. It has beautiful chandeliers that made the room look very elegant. Our wedding was everything I could have dreamed of and more!

Dan and his team are TOP NOTCH. It rained on the day of our wedding and his team had my entire venue moved indoors in plenty of time, and the final set up still looked amazing. His staff was incredible and made the night go by seamlessly, allowing my husband, my family and I to relax and just enjoy the day. I cannot recommend this place enough! The wedding package that he offers can't be beat for the price, and the food provided is delicious. We had an absolutely amazing experience and am so glad we chose Creekside to host our wedding!
