This property is BEAUTIFUL. The grounds are well kept and so charming! We had our reception on the back lawn/porch area because of the beautiful backyard feel, not to mention the great view of the fountain/pond. The staff was incredibly helpful and kind! I cannot say enough good things about how help and friendly they were throughout the whole process. They set up all the big stuff and create a back up plan in case of bad weather. We got married on the terrace so knowing that we had a back up plan, in case of Texas weather, made choosing them all the more worth it! Our wedding photos came out beautiful and everyone who attended got great photos too! The bridal area was a spacious and comfortable place to get ready!

Garey House was the perfect venue for our small (~65 guests) wedding! You need to erase any downside in your mind of having your wedding at a park. The drive into Garey House is beautiful and sets you up for the rest of the evening. Kerbie, the venue coordinator, is incredibly knowledgeable, honest, and responsive. She will quickly give you guidance and suggestions for what works and what doesn’t. There are also plenty of options on how to use the venue and Kerbie will help guide you.
We initially planned on utilizing the entire venue (different areas for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing) but made some last minute changes due to warm weather the week of. Donna, the day-of onsite coordinator, was accommodating and gave recommendations when needed.
Highly recommend using this venue. You cannot beat the price!

Austin’s Hidden Gem! My experience getting married at the Garey House was nothing less than an absolute dream. Our day was so perfect that I still can’t believe it. The team at the Garey House is professional, friendly and most importantly understanding. They will work with you to make sure you’re day is everything you’ve ever imagined.

The venue is BEAUTIFUL. It has to be one of the most beautiful locations in the greater Austin area. For the price the service and venue are unbelievable.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience. Thank you so much to the Garey House team.

Beautiful outdoor wedding space – I have no idea how I found Garey house in my venue search but I went to the very first open house when they started doing weddings. The rate was a steal and I booked it immediately. Our wedding day weather was perfect for an outdoor wedding. The venue is so beautiful and dreamy. I’m so glad the Garey’s donated their home and land to the City. So many special days are being celebrated here.

Garey House was the perfect venue for our wedding of 100 guests. We worked closely with Kerbie for the year leading up to our wedding day and we are so appreciative of all of her help, advice, and multiple tours that she gave us of the venue. We used the Garey House grounds for our engagement photos as well which was a perfect introduction to the space. All of our guests couldn’t stop telling us how much they love the space and grounds and we are so grateful that we held our wedding reception there.

I had contacted and visited many venues for my vow renewal. I must say that I fell in love with Garey House the first time I saw it. If you want a romantic wedding with a Tuscan feel, this is the place. The outdoors are breathtaking ( perfect for a ceremony) and the house is so pretty. The price is excellent for what you get. The staff is very professional and attentive since day 1. I was amazed by the level of professionalism and responsiveness.
I’ll be forever grateful to everyone involved in helping me to execute/plan my dream vow renewal with no issues. Thanks, Garey House!

We had our dream wedding at the Garey House. The grounds are breathtaking and so is the architecture. You also can’t beat the price for the area. When your guests enter the park, they’ll already be impressed with the views and then the house just tops it off. The inside is a little bit smaller but at least this venue gives you a backup plan in case it does rain! Tips/more info: they prefer insurance from wedsafe, choose caterers from their preferred list (Courtney’s catering was amazing), you can buy your own alcohol but you need a TABC bartender, 10 hour rental that includes chairs and tables (3 different kind), keep in mind this is a park and other people will be within the vicinity but won’t have access to the house or your side of the pond. Altogether, I would highly recommend the Garey House to anyone, all of our guests loved it and the pictures turned out amazing. Thank you Garey House, we can’t wait to come back.

Garey House is a beautiful venue with indoor and outdoor space to fit your ceremony and reception needs. This venue is ideal for a wedding under 80 people. They do have a space that can accommodate up to 150 outside only, I believe. My ceremony was held in the terrace on and reception was in the great room. My guests loved the venue and kept commenting on how beautiful the house and grounds were. Our site manager for the day was Micayla she was helpful and friendly. If you are looking for a wedding venue, I would recommend Garey House.
