Cara Sent on 04/12/2022Our dream wedding!
Chateau Bellevue was the perfect wedding venue for us! It fit great into our budget, it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL (so many of our guests commented on it!), historical, and working with Amber was a breeze. She was so helpful anytime I had a small question through the planning, but especially in the last few days leading up and even a few days after blew us away with her service! She was super responsive and helpful and had great suggestions for things that worked well at the venue. We had a more intimate wedding (around 40 guests), and the space didn't feel packed, but didn't feel small either, and left us plenty of room to dance, so I highly recommend Chateau Bellevue if you've got a smaller guest count! And the food was awesome! It tasted even BETTER during the wedding than it did during the tasting. Pro tip: get the risotto balls for cocktail hour, everyone was obsessed with those haha. Their staff was also so sweet and helpful, and although I didn't actually make it to the bar myself all night, I heard their staff bartender did an amazing job and even improvised some cocktails when we started running out of ingredients. Overall, a great experience, and would highly recommend to any couples looking for a venue with a lot of character and history! -

This venue is absolutely stunning! They include catering and the food was also delicious and the chef catered to our dietary needs. No need for rentals and they even let us borrow a few things for the reception. Amber was an absolute dream to work with. And it was in our budget! Can't have enough good things to say about this place. -

I had my wedding on 6/1/2019 at Chateau Bellevue and it was the best day of my life!!!! From the first time I ever contacted them, everyone I spoke to was so professional, kind, and knowledgeable. It was love at first sight when we went to tour and made a decision to book that day and this was after touring 5 other venues (some even in Houston) but we felt so at peace with booking at Chateau Bellevue. I can't sing their praises enough because every staff member I encountered was amazing. They do all the catering which scared me at first but I went to the tasting and brought two girlfriends, we were absolutely blown away by everything we tasted. The food was sooo incredible it was hard to make a decision! I got to personally meet the chef that night and he made a hybrid menu for me to make sure I was able to include everything I wanted. When I went to have my alcohol and decor dropped off the day before the wedding, I met one of my bartenders (the in-house bartender) - I didn't have a signature drink and she offered to make one up for me (everyone couldn't stop talking about how good it was). Amber is the sales and events manager who I worked closely with and she puts her heart and soul into her job! She is one of the best people I've ever had the pleasure of working with and she made the whole process flawless. She went above and beyond trying to make sure everything was perfectly organized and truly made me feel so special. The venue speaks for itself in it's beauty, but the staff there is what truly made it all perfect. I could keep writing paragraphs about how wonderful Amber and everyone was. Thank you for the most perfect day - y'all made it all happen. -

Lesley Sent on 12/04/2018Perfect venue for us
We had our wedding last month at Chateau Bellevue and are so happy we chose this venue! We loved the classic style and felt that it was a great value for the price. The location cannot be beat-- our out of town guests were able to walk from downtown hotels. The food was great- we got so many rave reviews from guests. We had 90 guests, and the size of the venue was perfect. It felt cozy and intimate but not at all crowded. The staff was very responsive and accommodating. We were able to buy our own alcohol to bring in and then used their bartenders. This saved us so much money and really helped make our budget stretch. We are so thrilled that we found Chateau Bellevue and have the best memories of our wedding there. -
Jak Sent on 04/30/2018I hosted my wedding reception at Chateau Bellevue 10 years ago (2008). It was a truly extraordinary experience from start to finish. The property is stunning, the staff professional, food was delicious, and the location is perfect.
Fast forward to 2018. I wanted to do something special for our 10 year anniversary. I contacted Caitlin who helped me plan something wonderful to surprise my wife.
A decade later the Chateau Bellevue Austin Woman's Club continues to impress me.
Thank you Caitlin, Mandy, and Chateau Bellevue for your help! -

Jenny Sent on 11/27/2017Having my wedding at Chateau Bellevue was a DREAM. The location is perfect (in downtown, but you wouldn't know it just looking around. It looks so elegant, and you can't even see the more modern buildings around from the ceremony area!)
Mandy was the one we were in contact with, and she was always prompt with her responses, and more than accommodating. I had multiple instances where I had to change things after confirming it prior (such as an appointment to view the venue, then had to change the date a week later) and she was always understanding. The rest of the staff were very helpful and the price for this venue is fantastic.
The food was spectacular. I still dream about their potatoes and crab cakes. We also had the beef tenderloin and it was cooked to perfection. My guests were all very impressed with the food and the venue, and the pictures turned out so well! I wanted to get married in a location with a little history and elegance and this venue was perfect. I couldn't have asked for anything more. -

Nicole Sent on 06/23/2015Chateau Bellevue came up on my planning radar because of its location. We wanted a downtown venue for about 100 guests that had space for an indoor reception, and the free parking was an added bonus. We scheduled a tour with Mandy, and knew we were in good hands. Mandy was helpful and quick to respond--she even recommended our officiant when we were chatting with her about planning progress during our food tasting.
Speaking of food, yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. After tasting Jeff's delicious creations, I immediately contacted my planner to make sure she knew it was a priority to box up a meal to be sent to our hotel after the wedding. Our guests were wild about the buffet we served (apps--chicken salad sandwiches, risotto balls, sides-green beans, potato gratin, entrees--herb-crusted beer, pecan chicken), and my first post-reception action included eating potato gratin (from both of the boxes my planner sent with us--sorry husband).
On our wedding day, we knew we had a stream of storms heading our direction, and CB staff was so perfect with their weather radar apps to determine if an outdoor ceremony was possible--they knew exactly how much of a window we needed to put out chairs, seat guests, and get through our 18-20 minutes ceremony without soaking everyone. With a 7 minutes delay, we hit the window they calculated perfectly, got married under the sweet magnolia, and even had most of the cocktail hour on the lawn before CB staff gave us the 7 minute storm warning to get inside. 8 minutes later we were enjoying the torrential storm from our comfortable ballroom.
Additional notes:
-use the 2 hours of free bridal portraits
-upgrade to the Chivari chairs even if it hurts (they're really pretty).
-Invite us to your wedding. I need more potato gratin and risotto balls.
Chateau Bellevue was the perfect setting for our wedding. We'd do it all over without any changes.
