Best Decision ever made

I’m not sure where to start for this absolutely incredible experience. I love love love this venue! The location was ideal for those traveling from all directions. From beginning to end our experience was nothing but perfect. The venue is stunning. The furniture/reception tables were exactly the look we were going for. The catering kitchen was perfect for our caterers. The owners were so nice and helpful. I had forgotten batteries and the owner left to go get me some. Upstairs they have a locked closet for the bridal party to access their belongings and it was nice to know everything was kept secure. We have received so much positive feedback from our guests. I am so glad we chose The Graily for my daughter's wedding reception. I highly recommend this venue. You will NOT regret it.

Lorinda + Brad Yates have always had an interest in restoration and redesign, but their renovation of the old Bullard Heights School in Waxahachie, TX has been their most exhilarating project to date. Their daughter became engaged in May of 2021 and they began looking for a wedding venue. When they could not find a place they completely loved, the Yates decided to take the challenge and create a space that would allow their daughter to get married at their home church and have a reception nearby. The Yates orginally purchased the schoolhouse in January 2021 with a plan to develop the space into multifamily units. When they realized they could not make the plan work without bulldozing the old schoolhouse, they decided to let the building sit until they could find a good use for the land and buiding. It turns out that the schoolhouse was actually the perfect place for their daughter's future reception venue and a wonderful additon to the Waxahachie community for events!
