Summer wedding at Mae’s Ridge

I had my wedding at Mae’s Ridge summer of 2024 and it was absolutely perfect! I loved the layout of the venue with multiple options to chose from for your ceremony, the outdoor cocktail area, bride and groom getting ready suite and the huge reception room. Every detail they’ve added to the venue is thoughtful and perfect. I also loved working with Abby as my day of coordinator and the owners, Rick and Joelle, are the best. Would highly recommend having your perfect Austin hill country wedding at Mae’s :)

My Dream Venue

I am so happy that I chose Mae's Ridge for my summer wedding! I thought it would be hot but this venue is up on a ridge which was shaded and had a cool breeze. The backdrop of the Hill Country was a stunning backdrop too!
The reception area was perfect for me to be able to create my vision which was very minimal with lots of greenery and the white building made it really pop so we didn't need much in decor.
I can't say enough about this amazing venue- I highly recommend it to all the couples searching for their dream wedding venue!

The perfect hill country wedding venue

We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding venue! From the moment we arrived, it was clear this space was exactly what we were looking for—modern, stunning, and thoughtfully designed, while still embracing the natural beauty of the Hill Country. Every detail felt intentional, and it created the most beautiful backdrop for our special day.

Abby, the wedding planner, was incredible to work with—organized, attentive, and truly invested in making our day seamless and stress-free. We cannot thank her enough for going above and beyond! The owners were equally wonderful: so kind, accommodating, and a genuine pleasure to work with. It was clear they truly care about their couples and their venue.

If you’re looking for a modern, beautiful Hill Country venue paired with an amazing team who will go above and beyond, this place is truly something special. We are so grateful we chose it for our wedding day!

Mae’s Ridge: Fabulous Venue!

Joell and Rick were extremely accommodating and professional every step of the way during our wedding experience! The venue itself was in perfect condition from the exterior spaces and grounds to the bride room and groom room and main space. I cannot name one thing that didn’t go perfectly. The total cost ended up coming in under our budget, surprisingly. Mae’s Ridge has great relationships with such fantastic vendors, including the following 2 that made the event super excellent:

The Most Incredible Views!

I knew this was THE SPOT from the moment we drove through the beautiful gated entrance, up the hill and saw the most incredible views! The manager, Abby, showed us around the stunning property covering all the details we needed to make our decision. Mae's Ridge has everything we could possibly need for our special day including the most amazing bridal suite and huge Groom's building. We are getting married next year but so far the communication and helpful lists are making it super easy to plan- WE CANNOT WAIT!!!
