Amazing venue!!

I got married at The Orchard in September. The venue was perfect and the team was amazing to work with. They answered all our questions and were so helpful throughout the planning process. Many of our guests commented on how fantastic the venue was. We rented the Lodge and Cabins and they were AMAZING! I would recommend booking The Orchard for any weddings or events!

Dream Wedding Venue!

The Orchard was our dream wedding venue!
The whole team was such a pleasure to work with and so accommodating to everything that we wanted/needed for our wedding day. Our family and friends loved staying on property at the lodge and cabins. It made for a weekend full of love and celebrating! The pavilion was a perfect spot for our barbecue rehearsal dinner that gave our guest the true Texas summer experience. The ceremony space was a picture perfect lush outdoor space and everything my husband and I dreamed of for our wedding day. The reception area was a perfect size for our 200 person guest count for everyone to dance all night! Shaina, Lacey, and the whole orchard team were so kind and helpful throughout wedding planning and made the whole experience stress free!
