Absolutely amazing. It was perfect for our smaller, more intimate wedding of around 65 close friends and family.

My wife and I absolutely loved Magnolia Terrace from the moment we stepped foot on the property. We had a spooky October wedding and it was the perfect canvas for us to sprinkle in bits of Halloween and other festive decor.

It's tucked away near downtown Frisco and you'd likely never notice it if you were just driving through. When you enter, everything is enclosed in greenery, which seems to weave its way throughout the entire outdoor area. The ceremony area is covered with either plexiglass or another type of transparent plastic so that light still shines through and keeps everything bright, but there's enough tree cover so that the sun is never shining too harshly on you. The decor of the venue by default pretty much meant that we had to do minimal work to get it ready for our wedding, as everything was already beautiful right out of the box. The owners and coordinator were responsive and attentive to our needs, and worked with it to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it to be. The bride and groom suites weren't overly large, but they were the perfect size for our needs. Everything was clean and well kept, and pretty much every corner of the venue is great for photos.

I am not sure what else there is to say about it. We had looked at plenty of beautiful venues, but most were just out of our price range for what we'd be getting, but Magnolia Terrace was easily the best value we came across. Honestly, I felt Magnolia Terrace was just a prettier venue than all of the pricier ones we looked at, and we could've decided to not decorate a single thing and it would've still be perfect. Also, shout out to our coordinator Betsy; she was great and made sure we had everything we needed and that we didn't get side tracked :P

Go visit this venue and see for yourself, but we definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a slightly more intimate wedding with 100 guests or less. 10/10

The Magnolia Terrace is the PERFECT venue for a fairytale wedding! Chandeliers, twinkle lights and all!

It is truly a hidden gem and I’m so happy we found it! It’s filled with charm, romance and beauty! The grounds are gorgeous so you really don’t need much decor. The chandeliers and twinkle lights made it feel like we were in a fairytale.

I loved that we had everything in one place! A garden wedding with an indoor reception and plenty of space for 100 guests to dance the night away or chill in several intimate areas of the venue ! The staff was amazing! Betsy, the manager, had great communication and everything flowed! Becky made all of my dreams a reality with my seating chart and we are forever grateful!

People cannot stop talking about how beautiful it was and how magical it felt! I hiiiiiiighly recommend the Magnolia Terrace!

The Best Decision! 10/10

From the minute we walked into Magnolia Terrace, I *knew* it was the one. It's truly a hidden gem tucked away in the heart of Dallas. The moment you step into the gardens, you're transported—lush greenery, gorgeous landscaping, and the most peaceful water features that create such a dreamy, tranquil ambiance. It’s the kind of place that feels magical without even trying.

Betsy, the wedding coordinator, is nothing short of amazing. She is one of the most thoughtful and caring people I’ve ever met. From our first visit to the big day, she made us feel supported, heard, and celebrated. She genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in every single detail. Betsy is the kind of person you *want* in your life—warm, kind, and so good at what she does.

One of the things that makes Magnolia Terrace stand out even more is the incredible value. The pricing is unbelievably reasonable, especially considering it includes linens, tables, chairs, AND the setup. There were no hidden fees or last-minute surprises—just honest, excellent service and support.

The gardens themselves are absolutely stunning. We were lucky enough to have honeysuckle in bloom during our wedding, and some of my favorite photos aren’t even of the flowers we brought in—they’re of the venue’s natural beauty. That says everything.

I truly cannot recommend Magnolia Terrace enough. We’re already planning a second reception for a larger group of friends and family, and we’ll 100% be coming back here. When you find a venue and a team that make your day feel this special, you don’t let them go. Thank you, Magnolia Terrace (and Betsy!) for giving us the most beautiful memories we could have asked for.

Couldn't have been better!!

Magnolia Terrace was a magical space for our wedding! From the very beginning, Betsy was incredible - making sure every detail was organized, helping me think things I had never even thought of, and working with Angela on the day of put me at ease. I didn't have to worry about anything other than getting married. The bridal suite was phenomenal, plenty of space for my girls, lots of mirrors and a nice kitchen to have some snacks. The team is wonderful, and they pulled off my dream wedding, I literally couldn't be happier with their attention to detail and help calming me through the stressful moments. HIGHLY recommend!!!

We had the wedding of our dreams at Magnolia Terrace!!!!

My husband and I were married at Magnolia Terrace on March 1, 2025 (reception only as we had our ceremony in a Catholic Church). We could not have asked for a better venue to celebrate our marriage. The venue itself was beautiful and very affordable. MT has a huge closet full of decorations that you can use which helps save so much money and allows you to have everything you hoped for on a budget! We were pleasantly surprised with the recent renovations to the bar area, getting ready spaces, and the new photo wall!! The bar package at Magnolia Terrace is super affordable and so worth the spend! All of our guests complimented the drinks and service all night long and of course it saved us the trouble of calculating drinks and bringing our own! We loved the flexibility that Magnolia Terrace provided with the use of the space. We utilized the ceremony area for extra seating since we had our ceremony somewhere else. The secret garden is gorgeous and my husband loved being able to have a cigar bar for his friends out there! The outdoor vineyard is stunning as well! Lastly but certainly not least, Betsy Clark is AMAZING!!! She is a life safer! She knows what she is doing and makes all of your visions come to life!! I absolutely couldn't have done it without her!! She was so patient with all of my questions and requests, so helpful in facilitating everything during the wedding and of course the set up. We are so thankful for her hard work which made our day so perfect!!!!

Magnolia Terrace - Beautiful Wedding Venue

Magnolia Terrace in Frisco, TX, truly exceeded all our expectations for our special day! The venue offers both indoor and outdoor spaces, featuring a beautiful evergreen garden, chandeliers, and soothing water features. Our guests enjoyed mingling in the beautiful surroundings, both inside and out.
The venue has numerous picturesque locations for photos, ensuring that every moment is beautifully captured. One of the best aspects of Magnolia Terrace is that the decor is included in the wedding package, which alleviates a lot of stress and cost. This allowed us to fully enjoy the day without any worries.
The staff at Magnolia Terrace was incredibly friendly and helpful, particularly Betsy, our day-of coordinator. Betsy's years of experience and warm personality made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free. She truly brought our vision to life and made our wedding day fun and memorable.
We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we're so grateful to Magnolia Terrace for making our wedding the BEST DAY EVER!

The MOST magical venue

If you’re looking for a slice of cozy in Texas, Magnolia Terrace is for you. From the staff, to the venue, to the twinkly lights, you’ll feel like you’re in your own secret garden. We had our wedding right before sunset & o to the evening so we could enjoy the venue at night. The staff makes you feel valued & cared for and handle any and all potential stressors. As a bride, I had the best day ever. My (now) husband found this venue with me in mind, and he was spot on. I’d HIGHLY recommend this venue.

Stunning Space & EXCELLENT Coordinator!

We loved Magnolia Terrace from the moment we saw it! (In fact, before stumbling upon this hidden gem, we were set on going to the Dallas County Courthouse!) The lush greenery, romantic lighting, and airy greenhouse space helped curate the exact vibes we didn’t even know we were looking for! While small, the space is perfectly laid out and utilized. We also appreciated that we were able to pick and choose from the venue’s beautiful decor options. (The venue’s decor and linen options saved us literally thousands in the long run.)

However, the BEST thing about this venue is its wonderful coordinator, Betsy Clark. Our experience would not have been as special, memorable, and remarkable without Betsy’s calming presence and personal touches. I’m certain that Betsy has seen it all in her career, yet she made us feel like our wedding was THE most important thing in her orbit. (Which is laughable, considering she effortlessly manages multiple events a week!) Nothing felt impossible with Betsy at our side. She answered my many, many questions and calmed my nerves and concerns. She was always game for my “what if” round of anxious questioning. If it was within her power and purview, it was handled. Betsy also helped us navigate a few changes with the venue prior to our wedding. (The venue had undergone an ownership change in the months before our event.) Betsy was fair, honest, clear, and helpful in her communication. She made sure we were well taken care of throughout our time with her. Betsy gave the best gift a couple could ever hope for: Peace of mind.

Magnolia Terrace feels like an other-worldly gem that you’d never expect to find in a Dallas suburb. We’re glad we did!

Fairy Tale Spring Wedding with Magnolia Terrace

We had an above and beyond experience with Magnolia Terrace! They took on three of some of the biggest challenges in wedding planning with us in strides - small budget as a young couple, communication across a 7-hour time zone difference, and a rainy wedding day!
Our theme was garden party and although we wanted to do something simple and whimsical, we also wanted to feel like we were getting married in a fairy tale! We knew Magnolia Terrace was perfect for us just based on a FaceTime call, but the venue was everything we dreamed of and more in person. Betsy was always quick to respond with a helpful answer to any questions or concerns and was very accommodating, all the way up to and throughout the wedding day! We even got every bride's nightmare - a storm which lasted all day - on the day-of. Not only were we completely covered for the whole night, but we even got compliments from all of our guests about how much the calming rain added to the dreamy atmosphere of the garden greenhouse ceremony!
If you want to have one of those weddings where you can say, "no matter what went wrong, it was a perfect day," look no further.
