From our passionate and experienced wedding planning staff, to every day-of service included in our wedding packages, no detail will go unattended.

Getting married at Red Ridge was the easiest and best decision I made for our wedding! I was sold as soon as I had a tour and reviewed the multiple package options. The whole staff is so accommodating and pays close attention to detail. I was able to structure out the entire wedding ceremony and reception months before the Big Day. Then, on my wedding day, they were flexible and met my every need. All of my guests have told me how much fun and how beautiful everything was. I highly recommend Red Ridge!

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married at The Wildflower Barn - The Meadow Barn in September. I could not have had a more perfect day there. Andrea, their Day of Coordinator, was worth every penny and then some. The owners are amazing, answering questions along the way, providing recommendations, they truly contributed to making our day as perfect as it was. When it was time for Andrea to step in and help out, she helped out with every single detail, from tweaking our day of timeline, plan the layout of tables, ceremony site, absolutely everything. She turned my months and months of planning and vision in to reality exactly how I had pictures our day to be. I can’t recommend the venue and Day of Coordinator package enough. You will be taken such good care of by them all.

We had our Indian wedding in March of 2024 and it was a dream come true thanks to Hotel Viata. We had multiple events spread over a couple of venues but Hotel Viata hosted our guests the entire weekend as well as several of our events. We had a LGBTQ Indian wedding and they truly rose to the occasion. Our main contact Kelsey was FANTASTIC, but we truly received top notch service from everyone-from the folks that welcomed us at the desk to the bartenders and servers at our events. They went above and beyond to learn about our traditions and make each of events special. Honestly, we felt like extended family and our guests raved about the experience. The love, openness and celebratory affection they radiated our entire weekend…well that was priceless. Within their ability, they truly tried to make all of our wishes come true. One example of their kindness was when Kelsey went above and beyond and grabbed food for one of our best friend’s young kids…just because we wanted to make sure she had something that she would definitely eat. We’ll always remember our wedding with love and fondness….it was such a special time. And we’ll always be grateful to Hotel Viata for making our 20-year long dream come true. Highly recommend them for any of your special events.

We had our wedding welcome party at Pinthouse Brewing on South Lamar and it was the perfect location for it! We rented the upstairs space that had its own bar, seating, and a view that overlooked both the downstairs section and part of the brewery. Throughout the event, we had our own bartenders upstairs that could serve drinks as well as a buffet made by Pinthouse for the event–each and every one of our guests raved about the food and beer! Leading up to the event, Stephanie was immensely helpful in answering our questions and getting us through the paperwork. She very kindly responded to our often extensive emails and talked with us on the phone whenever we needed additional clarification. The night of the event went off without a hitch thanks to the team there and we are very grateful to them for helping us put on such a fun night. We would highly recommend this Pinthouse for events!

We've worked with Cakes ROCK!!! for many years, which is now located inside the wonderful new Rose Haven Bakery & Event Venue. Rose Haven is such a unique venue, as it has the custom cakes & retail bakery onsite, and also several event spaces, all surrounded by antique rose gardens. Combining the event venue with the bakery is such a great idea, as there are so few spaces in the Austin area for non-wedding events, like birthday parties, rehearsal dinners, showers, corporate events, etc. So it's an amazing event space with amazing cakes desserts in-house!
