    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!

    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!

    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.

    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 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 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 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.

    Amazing inclusive venue

    This venue was stunning. They provided so much it was an excellent value. Beautiful tables and chairs, decor items, sleeping arrangements, bridal suite, chapel, uplighting, bar area so much. I am sure I am missing things. It was really perfect for our wedding of 112 people.

    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!

    Memorable experience beyond words

    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.

    100% recommend! Absolutely wonderful!

    We cannot speak highly enough of this amazing venue! We live in Washington and planning a wedding in Texas was a potentially overwhelming idea, however, the team at Chapel at Gruene made it so easy. Their “Bride Guide” is a LIFE SAVER!! We found all our vendors and had all our questions answered in one easy place. They thought through things I didn’t, had amazing communication and timelines, and were so friendly and helpful along the way. I have been a part of quite a few weddings and they staff truly made it seamless for us, I’ve never experienced anything like it! The chapel and reception hall were PERFECT and the cottages were just what we needed. Everything was decorated and clean and organized. The most beautiful backdrop for all our photos.

    HIGHLY recommend this venue, you will not be disappointed!

    Beautiful venue, exceptional service

    We had our daughter’s wedding at this venue on June 10, 2023. Not only was this a beautiful place to have a wedding, but the owners and manager were very friendly and exceptional in providing ideas and guidance during the planning. They always responded immediately to any question I had. The service they provided was top notch. Everything ran smoothly that day, because of the way they run their business. The reception hall was decorated beautifully with the décor that they provide. The four cottages that they have on the premises were so convenient for family to stay and continue the party. I give this place an A+++ and highly recommend it to anyone planning an intimate wedding.

    Highly recommend

    We Highly recommend The Chapel at Gruene. It’s budget friendly and family oriented. Any questions I had they answered promptly by text, email or phone call. We also loved that the cottages were included with the venue. They also had decorations you can use if you wished. They were modern and very well organized with an online catalog you can pick from . The chapel is beautiful, along with the reception hall. The bridal suite is also a dream to get ready in. It had the perfect amount of Mirrors and vanities.
    Thank you again The Chapel at Gruene for having us. Also Thank you Shelby for your help and hospitality!

    Kids and adults can have fun here!

    Book this place. Ownership and Management are very attentive. The decorations included with the venue rental were the perfect accents and offered us a less stressful set up day. It’s beautiful. The kids were able to run around the complex safely while mom and dad were bustin’ a move on the dance floor.

    Amazing Experience

    This venue cannot be recommended enough! The Chapel at Gruene staff was so amazing. From the moment we first contacted them they were excellent communicators and also very informative. Their Bride Guide is an essential piece of planning. The decor collection they provide is absolutely stunning. The way they worked with us to have all the decor we needed was truly above and beyond. We were in awe at how beautiful the venue was during the wedding, the lights outside the venue made it a dreamscape. Their chapel is romantic, and their reception hall is intimate and very modern. To top it off their cottages are very comfy and allowed us and our guests to have an after party where we could just unwind and celebrate with an intimate group. We could not have asked for a better day, and The Chapel at Gruene was a big part of it.
