    Witmer Wedding

    We recently had our wedding with the Chapel and our day was perfect. The services provided, the venue itself, and everyone we worked with help make our day so special. We are so grateful for Michael and Joel for helping from the moment we signed the contract to the end of our wedding.

    Guest attending The Chapel at Gruene

    The staff were very friendly, helpful, and nice. I had a problem with my car battery the day after the wedding and Joel was very helpful in my time of need

    A Must for Your Wedding!

    My husband and I decided to have our wedding out of state, from Maryland. Michael was very responsive and gave us a Facetime tour of the place to help us visualize the layout. My favorite and my savior was their Bride Guide. I referenced that guide so many times until the big day.

    On the day of, I felt so welcomed by the staff. Shout out to Joel for being so friendly and down to earth! We were able to tour during the setup and it was absolutely gorgeous (we had the wedding mid-October and the weather was perfect). Every part of the venue, including the four cottages and the bridal suite, was amazing! There are no faults in booking with Michael and The Chapel at Gruene. It meant a lot that Michael personally came by when I was heading to the ceremony. I had the best time here and I highly recommend it here!

    Perfect Venue

    I toured a lot of venues and none of them felt right until the Chapel at Gruene. All the other venues I looked at had so many rules and didn’t want to work with what I envisioned. When I first went to the Chapel at Gruene I was greeted by Michael the owner and he is so friendly and flexible. He truly wanted the day to be what my husband and I wanted. There’s a feeling when you go to this venue that takes the stress of all the planning away. It’s truly so special. Our wedding day went perfect and the pictures couldn’t be more beautiful. I highly recommend!🤍

    Absolutely incredible!!!

    Our wedding at Chapel at Gruene in Gruene, TX last weekend was nothing short of MAGICAL! From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to make our special day flawless. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking—picture-perfect settings, beautifully maintained grounds, and a warm, inviting atmosphere that made our guests feel at home.

    What truly set this venue apart was the exceptional staff. They were professional, organized, and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. Every detail was handled seamlessly, from the initial tour to the final send-off. Each space at the venue is already so elegant on its own, and the venue staff will set up the tables and chairs for you ahead of your arrival. All that was left was the actual decorating of the dinner tables. We added a nice tablescape mixed with some of the greenery and classy decor items that the venue provides from their decor store (all free) mixed with the floral arrangements and stems that we brought with us. It was perfect, and so easy to execute. Their coordination, communication, and attentiveness to our floor plan and requests meant that we could just come in, set up the table decor, relax, and enjoy the rest of the day without a single worry.

    If you’re looking for a wedding venue that combines elegance, charm, and top-tier service, look no further than Chapel at Gruene. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will cherish the memories made here forever. Highly recommend!

    The Perfect wedding venue

    The Chapel at Gruene was the MOST PERFECT VENUE to get Married at! We got married March 31st 2024 and let me tell you everything from the Beautiful venue to the staff was absolutely amazing. They also have an amazing decor collection that is completely included with the venue! The Chapel at Gruene team are one of the mostly sweetest people you will come across, since the moment we booked they would reach out to make sure everything was in line to make our day perfect and they where always so helpful. Thank you so much Michael Tompkins and The chapel Team for making our day absolutely perfect!

    The Best Wedding Day Experience

    Our wedding at The Chapel at Gruene was so perfect. The venue itself is so naturally beautiful, especially during the springtime. The staff were so sweet, professional, and helpful. The provided decor collection is perfect and saved us from spending a lot of our budget on decor. So happy we booked with The Chapel at Gruene.

    Best value venue a bride could ask for!


    We had the most amazing experience at The Chapel at Gruene. It was the perfect venue for our intimate destination wedding of 90 guests. Everyone loved staying in Gruene, and the cabins were perfect for our local guests. The property was beautifully manicured, and the wildflowers were abundant during our March wedding! We had a more formal, sit-down, plated dinner. I was going for a whimsical, garden-party vibe, and I was initially worried whether the venue could provide the more formal atmosphere I was looking for. It totally did! It is not just for brides looking for a rustic venue! We had a magical night and our guests could not stop raving. Michael and his team did an excellent job ensuring that our night was perfect. Plus, we saved so much money because of the excellent decor collection! You won’t regret booking this venue!

    Choose this venue if you want to live out your dream wedding

    Michael and his staff are absolutely amazing. They care, they want to make it special and they are professional and fast! I couldn’t have imagined a better place to have our wedding. Staying onsite was a huge bonus and if I could I would redo it a million times! It’s the most fun outdoor & indoor venue. Give it a tour at the very least, you will fall in love!

    Loved it here!

    We had such a great time and experience with The Chapel at Gruene! From our first walk through consultation all the way to the day of. Beautiful venue, cute cottages, amazing decor! Great communication from staff and owner. The day of our wedding they checked in with us how things were going throughout the event. It really felt like we were treated like family. I highly recommend this venue, unbelievable experience!

    The most perfect day

    This venue was so perfect for us! They were so accommodating and helpful. Our questions were always answered quickly and they were quick to solve any problem we had. My most favorite part was that the cottages on the property came with the price for the venue so my family could stay the night of the wedding for no extra cost. Also they had a décor collection that we could borrow from (at no extra cost) that saved us a ton of money! The venue was just so beautiful and well kept and fit our vision perfectly. I highly recommend to anyone who is considering this venue to go with them. I have no complaints.

    The most beautiful and amazing venue in the San Antonio/ Austin area!!!

    Hello y’all! I just want to do a quick and honest shoutout to the Chapel at Gruene!! We had our wedding here on 01.28.2024.
    The owners and property manager responded very quickly to any questions, and to set up tours. (I work the night shift and they were still responding to me in the middle of the night lol!)
    They are very upfront about the prices (honestly very affordable!!)
    The venue itself is always beautiful. They just planted new flowers before my wedding. The grass is always green and landscaping is just amazing.
    Our day of coordinator- Micheal- was super helpful and flexible. We last minute needed more tables and a change of candles, and Micheal handled it immediately. He also balanced dealing with any requests from other bridal party members and always referred to me. He really understands that this is one of the most important days of people’s lives and respects that.
    Overall, I was so grateful to have the venue of my dreams, with literally zero hiccups. What an amazing crew of people to work with.
    (We also got lots of compliments about our venue!!)
    -be advised price includes overnight cabins for over 30 people!!!

    The perfect wedding venue

    Our wedding at The Chapel at Gruene was nothing short of magical! The setting was absolutely stunning and the charming cabins that added a unique touch to the entire experience.
    What made our day truly special was the incredible service provided by the venue's team. From the beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. The event staff were not only professional but also passionate, making us feel like cherished guests rather than just clients.
    The cabins were a highlight, providing cozy and fun accommodations for us and our wedding party. Having comfortable lodging on-site added a wonderful, intimate touch to our wedding weekend.
    In summary, we highly recommend The Chapel to couples looking for a dream wedding venue. The stunning setting, attentive staff, and delightful cabins create an unforgettable experience. Our wedding day was everything we hoped for, thanks to the amazing team.

    The most accommodating wedding venue out there!

    We had the most wonderful wedding at The Chapel at Gruene, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. The hosts were exceptional, and their warm hospitality made our special day even more memorable. The property's beauty is breathtaking, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how wonderful and beautiful the venue was. The team at the chapel was incredibly accommodating and kind, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our wedding. Thank you, Chapel at Gruene, for making our day so magical! It rained on our wedding day, however, the TCG team were so incredibly hospitable and accommodating that I completely forgot it was raining. If you were thinking about choosing them as your venue, don’t think twice, and just book them!

    Amazing and beautiful venue

    Amazing and beautiful venue! Exactly what I wanted for my smaller wedding. The rustic vibe and decor matched exactly what I was looking for. The fact that you get the cottages the night of the wedding and their decor line included is amazingly helpful. I cannot say enough good things about this venue but it exceeded my expectations. The owners were so helpful throughout the planning process with timely responses and great hospitality. Highly recommend!

    Location of venue is exceptional. Atmosphere / Ambience exceeds wedding expectations. Communication was excellent. Venue provided decor is priceless. Chapel is picture perfect. Vendors worked well with venue coordinators. Simple set up and clean up. Would recommend for 100 guests or less.
