About

The Texas Rock House is a barn & farm wedding venue in San Marcos, Texas, that provides a rustic setting for wedding events. If you are searching for a venue that can do justice to the countryside wedding you have always pined for, this might just be the choice for you.

Facilities and Capacity

Comprising five main areas, this venue has the 1940's Rustic Barn, an outdoor ceremony site, our new Ranch Building, the Country Cottage and the Rock Farm House. Fusing the natural elements of its provincial surroundings with the cozy interior of its two indoor spaces, the Texas Rock House combines the best of both worlds. Having your reception in the venue’s garden means you can enjoy the estate’s own one-acre landscape. It also gives you plenty of room for your guests to sit while you and your intended tie the knot. The barn & ranch building, complete with round tables, can each accommodate 100 people, while the deck alongside it gives extra standing room for those keen to mingle.

Services Offered

Venue is complete with a movable buffet/bar and tasteful mood lighting (both inside and out). Outside, couples can find colorful flowers planted here and there as well as rustic benches - great for photo opportunities. What’s more, for larger wedding parties, you can rent out tented covering as an additional space. Plus, they provide all-important services of cleanup, setup, plenty of chairs, and tables. Texas Rock House also works with a variety of outside vendors. It can recommend companies to you for any services you might need.

Accommodation

The farmhouse itself can provide couples with the option to stay the night on site, meaning less hassle attempting to book accommodation elsewhere. When the night is over and the happy couple wants to slink away to toast their marriage in private by the fireside, the house allows for that. In fact, with three bedrooms, the extended wedding party can stay the night, too. The Country Cottage is equipped with a sleeper sofa, TV, bar, refrigerator, bathroom facilities and Xbox (if requested), and is available to rent overnight also.

History

Originally built in the 1940's, the venue has managed to retain its authentic feel and tone over the years. Passed down through the family from grandfather, to daughter, and on to the current proprietor (granddaughter), there is plenty of history at this venue - and your wedding could be the latest chapter.

The most magical and fun place to have your wedding!

If you’ve ever driven by Texas Rock House, especially at night, you know how captivating the magical and beautiful scenery looks. The landscaping, cottage and house, rustic barn, and beautiful trees created the perfect scene for our outdoor wedding ceremony. The rustic barn matched our theme and looked so beautiful inside and out. It had plenty of room for our guests to eat during the reception, as well as the ideal dance floor size. We barely needed to add decoration since the environment itself provided such gorgeous ambiance. At night, each tree is wrapped with lights, completing the magical atmosphere, as well as creating some of the most gorgeous pictures you could ask for on your special day.

Also, I could not have asked for a better day-of coordinator. Erin, the venue owner, went above and beyond to make sure our day ran smoothly. She held meetings with us both in person and on the phone, to go over the timeline and every detail of the wedding day. The day of the wedding, we were ready to adjust to any unforeseen setbacks that may occur, as they do for large events, but due to Erin’s meticulous preparations leading up to the wedding day, and foresight the morning of, the whole day really was PERFECT!

She was so helpful, professional, thoughtful, creative, and fun. I don’t know what we would have done without her. She made sure we had everything we needed to help make our day flow exactly as we envisioned it, made sure everyone in our wedding party was where they needed to be, and gave our photographer some helpful tips about great wedding shots. She even took some great photos of our wedding guests while we were off taking pictures which really completed the perfection of the whole day.

I recommend Texas Rock House as THE best place to have your wedding.
I recommend Erin as THE most outstanding wedding coordinator for her unparalleled services.

From helping with the timeline, to serving cake, Erin was on it! She is amazing to work with, Friendly, and truly passionate about what she does which is exhibited in any event held here.

Amazing Rustic Venue!

I loved the Texas Rock House! I drove by it everyday for 2 months before looking at their website and what they had to offer! The micro package was a perfect fit for what I wanted, a small intimate wedding! Erin was very communicative from the get go! She was very helpful leading up to the day, making sure we had the best day ever! On the day, Erin and her staff were amazing! Erin made sure everyone knew what they were doing. There were some changes to the original plans that were discussed when I met with Erin prior but she went along with those changes and had no problem with it! It really was an amazing day! Erin constantly made sure that my husband and I were doing okay, asking about drinks and food, taking pictures, giving tips to the photographer for the picture spots on the property. She helped throw the plates away from the guests. Erin and her staff even had to deal with a little mess from my nephew but it was all okay, the party continued! My family loved this place and everything it had to offer! It worked for us and was perfect for us! I couldn’t have found a better place! I definitely recommend TRH, we had a tremendous experience! If I plan on having another event, this is where I want it!

Amazing experience!

Erin did a greater job than I could have ever imagined. Her team went above and beyond all expectations. Although the day was so stressful, it would have been impossible without Erin! She helps with so many small details that you never would think of, and it makes all the difference in the world. She is ten steps ahead and sometimes almost seems like she can read your mind, she will see your vision through! I’m not sure how she did so much on the day of- but she did. She was there keeping everyone on schedule, making sure the bride and groom had drinks and food, taking pics, giving great ideas to the photographer, and I could go on.
I’m so glad we chose her and TRH to get married at, it couldn’t have been more perfect. I really can’t say anything but positive thing about her and if we ever have another big party, that is where I want to have it!

Wow, just wow

I don't even know where to begin with how thankful I am for the people at Texas Rock House!! The venue is absolutely stunning, Erin is incredibly helpful, & the staff was attentive, all of these things made for the PERFECT day!! The staff did amazing setting up & breaking down, Erin helped keep the flow of the night on track & smooth, I just couldn't be more happy with how everything turned out. The Bridal space to get ready was perfect lighting for hair & makeup, & plenty of room for the girls & I along with cute decor that was great for photo ops. The groom space was a great hangout spot for the men to relax in & play games while waiting on us lol. Thank you again to Erin & her AMAZING team, she even provided behind the scene photos which are priceless!! If you're in need of a venue, this is it!!

Absolutely amazing!

We had our wedding at TRH this past weekend. This not being our first marriage, we opted for the micro wedding package. We ended up adding on the groom's cottage for us girls to get ready and hang out until it was time for the vows. Erin was super helpful from beginning to end of our entire process! She knew what we needed before WE knew what we needed! Her skills at making the day flow smoothly are top notch and I couldn't have imagined how it would have gone had she not been there. Much love Erin, and thank you for all that you did for us on our special day!!! Carlton & Kirsten Niemeyer

The best venue

I cannot express how much I loved this venue. There were two major things that helped us make our choice on a venue and what reassured us during the entire time that we made the right decision. First off the owner Erin, she was absolutely wonderful helping us make our day perfect. She helped with the details we didn’t even think about or completely forgot the day of. She knows her stuff and makes sure you get what you want. Next the venue itself, absolutely gorgeous. The history behind this house makes you feel very much at home. The house was wonderful to have for getting ready but the barn, lighting, and atmosphere she has created on this property is what really draws you in. Everyone was able to space out if they wanted to or they all gathered on the patio/barn for dancing and drinks. The icing on the cake, the cows. We had about 5 little ones at our wedding and they were obsessed. It definitely kept them occupied for a while until we got things rolling.

Hal’s Memorial-Celebration of Life

Although it wasn’t a wedding it could’ve been one. It was a Memorial-Celebration of Life for my 61 yr. old husband. The setting was rustic and tables were covered with white tablecloths inside and outside the barn and the trees and deck were decorated with white lights. We were provided a bartender. My guests loved the Memorial and the setting. They had nothing but kind, admiring words to say about the memorable Memorial due largely to the setting. The green grass, the barn, the 2 friendly cows in the background, all contributed to make this a very special occasion. I can’t leave out the air conditioned restrooms, that was icing on the cake for me. I would have an event there again in a heartbeat. Erin and her associate wer most helpful, accommodating and friendly.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
