Hotel Van Zandt delivered beyond even our high expectations.

Our April wedding at Hotel Van Zandt was incredible! We had 220 guests and used the 2nd Floor main Ballroom for both our Ceremony and Reception. The outer foyer was also perfect for the Cocktail Hour in between while the HVZ Banquet team worked quickly and quietly to transform the space. We comfortably fit 20 round tables (8-10 people each) and a very long head table (35 people) in the ballroom, including HVZ's Stage and 20' x 20' Dancefloor. It was great that we did not have to rent much else other than we opted for different linens, changers, and silverware. The top 2 compliments we got from our guests were how nice the modern aesthetic of the hotel was (including the grand staircase and lobby which photographed beautifully in our group photos) and the quality of the food. Also - the HVZ bar staff was well equipped to handle a large number of guests (and I should mention they also worked the bar for our Friday night Welcome Drinks at the 'Bar 605' Coffee shop attached to the lobby). Allison at HVZ was great to work with and let me come to tour the space 6-7 times in all for various vendor visits and décor planning. She probably did more to help than our main coordinator, and the Hotel Van Zandt delivered beyond even our high expectations.

Perfect Wedding Weekend!

We had planned to get married at HVZ in October 2020 but postponed for all the obvious reasons. We rescheduled and got married on 4.29.23. I worked very closely with the HVZ team and they worked incredibly hard to make our wedding everything we wanted it to be. Rachael, the event coordinator, was my main point of contact. She was responsive, knowledgeable, organized, and warm at every turn. She made us feel like VIPS anytime we were onsite for planning and especially the weekend of the wedding itself.
Erin and Abby handled the room blocks and they were so accommodating to all our guests, making sure they had quiet spaces away from any Rainey Street noise and that everyone was comfortable and had what they needed. I mentioned to Erin that I like a good batt and she made sure we had a soaking tub in our room every single time we were there!
Joaquin was super thoughtful and hands on in all his catering/service management! When he sensed we were both a little stressed before the rehearsal, he brought me a glass of champagne and my groom a glass of bourbon to take the edge off a little. What a gem!
And the front desk staff was always kind and helpful to me and all our guests.
The setting of the hotel is elegant, modern, music forward and a little moody - which is why chose it. But the care and support the HVZ team provided at every turn is what made all the difference in giving us the absolute best wedding weekend from start to finish! We are so grateful for them.

Dream Venue

We did our due diligence when selecting our wedding venue, but knew we were home when we set foot in Hotel Van Zandt. The hotel is the perfect balance of unique sophistication and elegance. We used a variety of spaces including the main ballroom for our Indian ceremony and reception, the Meriwether ballroom for our rehearsal dinner and the pool area for our evening western ceremony. The team at the Van Zandt is knowledgeable and helpful - they have your best interests at hand and incredibly responsive, and they make you feel welcome every step of the way. We were so lucky to work with both Molly and Samantha throughout the last year leading up to our big day in November 2021. Our families still talk about lovely the team was and could see them working hard to ensure there we no hiccups to our day. The decor is breathtaking, and the chef + team will curate a menu that will leave you reminiscing for days after your meal. The service staff will greet you with the biggest smiles and somehow make your day extra special. If you have the opportunity to get married in heart of downtown Austin, look no further than the Hotel Van Zandt.
