Gorgeous, Special, Charming, and Intimate

Your wedding venue search is OVER! I toured at least 9 wedding venues in the Austin area but didn't even need to see the entire property of The Hummingbird House before I knew we'd finally found our venue. The gardens are truly breathtakingly beautiful. The trees offer great shade during cocktail hour and the reception hall is air-conditioned and gorgeous, which could also act as a nice "Plan B". Because of the stunning gardens, we felt like we saved a lot of money in the floral budget because of how naturally beautiful the venue was. It is so secluded, quaint and quiet. We felt like the whole world around us paused just for our wedding. The bridal suite and groom suite were very clean, organized, and the perfect size for both groups. It is such a special and charming place. What adds to it being so charming and special are the owners. While we didn't get to meet Danny's partner, we had several vendors talk very highly about the two. Danny was an absolute blessing. From the moment we met during our venue tour, to the grand exit on our wedding day, he was there for us ensuring we were taken care of. We hired him for the wedding planning service and decor set up which was the best decision we made. I can assure you that the service and personal touch that Danny offers is not found at any other local venue. He went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was perfection. As the bride, I was able to have an stress-free wedding day, trusting that Danny was taking care of everything. We feel honored to have been able to make our lifelong promise in such a beautiful space.

The Perfect Place

HH could not have been more perfect! From within minutes of our tour, my now husband and I knew it would be the place. It is private, spacious, has amazing accommodations including grooms suite and bridal house, and the gardens are so beautiful, they don't require anything extra to still be incredible. We had a very minimalistic style which fit perfectly since this venue is so gorgeous on its own. The cherry on top was getting to work with Danny and Kelsey for planning and day of coordination as well. They truly made our day what it was and we could not be more thankful for them!

Get married in a secret garden

Since the first moment we saw Hummingbird House, we knew it was where we wanted to get married. The venue is a beautiful secret garden with so many great spaces for guests to mingle and play games. The Hummingbird House team maintains the grounds so well that you hardly need any decorations - it is so beautiful on its own! Our photographer and videographer both commented on how easy it would be to shoot/film at Hummingbird House because there are so many spectacular spaces. The pictures we’ve gotten so far are breathtaking and seem like they were taken in some magical forest.
Even in the Texas summer, our guests still wanted to be outside sipping drinks and hanging out in the garden during the reception. The air-conditioned tent was a wonderful respite from the heat during our June wedding. The floor to ceiling windows and the white drapery make the tent magical.
Danny Hatt (the owner) is incredible! He was so patient with our incessant questions and accommodated many of our requests. Danny has such positive energy and helped ensure our day was exactly what we wanted it to be. We could not recommend Hummingbird House enough!

I highly recommend Hummingbird House for weddings. It is a beautiful setting that appears to be in the country, yet very close to the City of Austin.
