We had our tiny family only wedding here and it was the most perfect morning! The events team is a dream to work with; friendly, responsive, and genuine. My coordinator told me she was very impressed and hoped to work with the museum again in the future. We had tons of space to get ready in and everything ran smoothly. The museum itself is such a gem; it has been carefully renovated and has beautiful light with so many great photo ops. As a museum it’s obviously a super kid friendly venue and our nieces and nephews had a great time exploring, along with the rest of our guests. Truly cannot recommend the museum enough!

800 Congress is a downtown Austin event venue located on historic Congress Avenue with views of the Paramount & State Theatre’s and the Capitol building. The space features an open warehouse look that’s industrial yet polished with original exposed brick and foundation walls, covered street-level terrace, and state of the art A/V system. 800 Congress is your urban Austin event destination!

I looked at a ton of different venues throughout Austin for my wedding and I KNEW 800 Congress was the one. It delivered on every front. The space is absolutely gorgeous and ready to take on the energy of your event. The location is breathtaking at night in such a gorgeous area of downtown. Make use of the projector screen in the corner of the venue as it can’t be pulled out of sight- we aired a black and white movie during the reception and it added such a flair to the entire event. Everyone was easy and professional to work with, and I had the best wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Fast Friends Beer Company 

5.0

Austin, TX
  • Up to 500 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,000

We built Fast Friends on the values of creating positive change and inspiring people to DO/good, LOVE/big, and LIVE/now. Tucked away from the bustle of traffic, Fast Friends sits on three and a half acres of lush green space just south of downtown Austin. It’s part oasis, part retreat, and all about fostering human connection over good food and good beer. We combine craft brewing, farm-to-table culinary, wellness and philanthropy into a unique hospitality experience that's unlike anything else in Austin. Stop in, say howdy and enjoy a breezy afternoon under the canopy of live oaks. There's something for everyone here, and we've never met a stranger.

My wife and I had our wedding party at Fast Friends in November and it was amazing! David and Brandy were so easy to work with and flexible with pretty much anything we were wanting to do. Their downstairs has a unique aesthetic with a beautiful bar and cool speakeasy room. They have a music system to set the tone which they set to our preferred genre/favorite band. The inside is a huge space which opens up through a garage door to a patio with a garden and streamed lights. It’s truly a gem and we’re so lucky we got to have our party here. We had around 80 guests and there was room for many more! They even hooked us up with discounted merch for give aways. Highly recommend!!!

We chose The Ranch because it had everything we wanted! There is a gorgeous outdoor ceremony area with Longhorns grazing behind you. Then the reception area has a covered stage, which worked amazingly well for our band. There was enough room for everyone to dance all night long and the set up with the bar location was perfect. The owners of The Ranch were incredibly easy to work with - super flexible and quick to respond to any questions I had. They didn’t have required vendors so we were able to bring in our own band and her own food truck and caterers. When we saw this venue, we thought it was going to be perfect and we could not have been more right. We got nonstop compliments on the venue from our guests as well. I highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for a lovely gorgeous outdoor ranch style wedding.
