From the reviews
OKAY this place is amazing. First of all, I want to thank Melissa, Holly, and Lynsey who were involved in my wedding. Y'all were so professional in all your communication both in person and over the phone.
I cannot say ENOUGH about this venue! I love this venue and those who work there!!! Not only is it absolutely gorgeous and one of a kind they go above and beyond to make your day special and memorable for you.
When we were shopping around for venues most of the tours we went on left us feeling like we had just interacted with a used car salesman. Holly was genuine and fun-loving, a sharp contrast to the other tours we had been on.
Melissa at Balmorhea is incredible! She really helped us understand everything we needed to do to plan for our wedding. We only had a couple of months to plan and Melissa's knowledge and expertise provided exactly what we needed to get everything accomplished. She was always very friendly and easy to talk to.
Getting married at Balmorhea Weddings and Events
Balmorhea Weddings and Events comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
