History

This original Texas Dancehall operated throughout the early 1900s. This venue hosted regular dances and town events until the 1950s. After its unfortunate closing, the hall was used for hay storage. In 2009, the Burris family took over this meaningful space and began to renovate it for their daughter’s wedding reception. Soon, the renovations were complete and Schneider Hall was back in business. Many of the original features of the hall were maintained to preserve its historic charm, but it has been updated to include water and electricity as well as men and women’s bathrooms.

Couldn’t ask for more!!

My husband and I got married at Schneider Hall last week and there aren’t enough words to say just how amazing the Hall was, and how phenomenal Amber, the wedding planner and co-owner, is and how she made our day so seamless and wonderful. We chose the all-inclusive package and not only was it a great value, but having Amber in our corner made what could have been a super stressful experience (I’m super Type B and a massive procrastinator) go so smoothly. We had compliments all night about how gorgeous the Hall was, and when I tell you I did none of the planning, I mean I literally did none of the decoration planning (did I mention I also never visualized getting married, nor what my wedding would ever look like? I just knew I wanted country chic. And that’s where my visualization ended lol). I gave Amber some centerpiece ideas and color ideas and she took it and ran. It was BEAUTIFUL. I didn’t want the night to end!

The BEST Wedding Venue

After touring several venues my fiancé and I were almost ready to settle for one we didn't love - until we found Schnieder Hall! We instantly fell in love with the venue and the owner, Amber. We chose the dream wedding package, which was the best package for your money compared to all the other venues we researched. Amber handled everything and made the process so easy and stress-free. All I had to do was tell her my preferences and she brought our vision to life!

I sincerely appreciated the way Amber honored my mom, who had passed recently. She reserved a chair in the front row with a portrait of my mom and my mom's favorite flower. She also made a beautiful memorial table for her at the entrance of the venue. I was so emotional at the aisle when I saw my mom's chair. I am forever grateful and so blessed that we found Amber and her venue.

The photos were taken by Haley Evans Photography - she is amazing! I highly recommend her

Best Choice Ever!

When we got engaged, my fiance and I struggled to find a venue that we both liked within our price range. When we went to look at Schneider Hall, we both felt that it was the perfect place to say our vows in front of friends and family. It is an intimate, relaxing atmosphere with beautiful, eclectic sights perfect for photos and all at a very reasonable cost. Amber made the entire process a breeze, assisting with wedding planning and decorations... not to mention calming me down during several panic moments when I felt behind in my planning! The day of was absolutely perfect; from waking up and getting prepped with all my bridesmaids in the lovely BNB, all the way to turning off the lights of the hall after all the fun was over. Amber and her staff helped make our wedding day run smoothly, even having a back up plan for potential bad weather. I highly recommend booking your wedding at Schneider Hall. We still have family and friends tell us that our wedding was the coolest, most relaxing, and fun wedding that they have been to! If I could, I would give 10/10 stars!

I would do it here again

I knew I wanted to get married at Schneider Hall from the first time I saw it. Amber and her team were amazing from helping set up the venue when the weather changed and to staying on schedule so our day went smoothly. Amber was so supportive from answering all my questions to helping me decide my other vendors. I would get married here again in a heartbeat.

Best Venue EVER!

You don't want to miss out on this secluded venue! The amenities are fantastic, and the service is nothing but top notch. I am so glad I found Schneider Hall when I was looking for my venue. The wedding coordinator, Amber, is amazing! She helps everything go off without a hitch. She made sure everything flowed properly and timely. She is an amazing "tool" to have on your big day! The venue is a beautiful place for all your pictures and her packages are hard to beat! Overall, I loved my experience there and I believe you will too!

Dream wedding

We went to a few venues near our home and they were beautiful but didn’t feel right. My husband found Schneider Hall and we decided to bring our daughter with us to tour it. As soon as we pulled up I just knew. Walking in and meeting Amber who told me she would make my wedding exactly how I want it. When we left I told my husband yes this is it. Amber was an amazing wedding planner, every step of the way. The day of the wedding was a dream, everything from the decor and centerpieces was absolutely perfect. I have had many family members and friends say how beautiful the wedding was, they all fell inlove with Schneider Hall. If you’re looking for a venue that includes an amazing wedding planner that takes all of your stress away. Choose this place! Thank you again for making my dream wedding come true!

Everyone keeps talking about how beautiful our venue was

Even with 2 covid rescheduled dates, Amber took my hodge podge of a "inspiration board" and turned it into something beyond what I'd expected. She handled it all and I couldn't be more thankful. Everyone still says they can't believe how beautiful it was out there.
