We LOVED this location. After our first visit we just knew this was the right place for us and we quit looking at other options. We wanted an evening cocktail party reception and the Ruby House was perfect all around - right size, right vibe. Our ceremony was on the deck and although it rained the night prior and that morning, it cleared and we didn't have to move indoors but we would have fit if needed. We used the deck benches for the first rows to help separate/identify family seating and the hotel had chairs to rent for the rest of the seating. It all worked very well. After the ceremony, the staff cleared those chairs and returned the regular deck seating and tables which was perfect for the reception. We rented audio equipment for our officiant but used the in-house Sonos system to play our music for the rest of the reception. We put together several Spotify playlists that they loaded for us and gave us control to pick what to play and when.
For food, we did heavy hors d'oeuvres which gave everyone a chance to mingle all evening. No one left hungry! The options available gave us a chance to meet the dietary needs of everyone from vegetarian to celiac. We were also able to work with the bar to put together the drink menu and package we wanted.
Lastly, to keep the cost within reason, we opted for a Thursday evening rather than a weekend. The minimums were lower and no commitment for hotel rooms this way. For our guests from out of town, they stayed at the hotel and enjoyed the excuse for a long weekend in Austin. We also stayed at the hotel the night prior and night of which was convenient for getting ready and gave us extra time to visit with those friends. We were really happy with our choice to do it this way and all around, it was easier to schedule vendors and kept costs under control.

WOW!!
What an amazing hotel and party venue!!
The Ruby Hotel was our host hotel and is where I held the Welcome Party for my family and friends for my daughter's wedding - 6/8/22 - 6/10/22.
From start to finish, it was a great experience, considering I starting the process in January 2022 and the wedding was 6/9/22. Heaven was so helpful during the entire time!!
We had 16 rooms booked for the event and EVERYONE loved every moment of it. The property is so beautiful!! The staff was so professional and attentive to all of our needs.
Special shout out to Brian and his crew that worked the party!! Chef Jacob and Chef Joseline for the food!!
It was perfect!!
Thank You !!!

This beautiful boutique hotel was the perfect venue for our small, intimate wedding. The staff, service, food and drinks are of the highest quality. The grounds of the Ruby are exquisite, Matt and the staff felt like friends. Our day was perfect because we choose The Ruby Hotel.
