The Grand Lady
The Grand Lady just outside of Austin, Texas is a historic wedding venue perfect for weddings of all seasons. Built originally as a home in 1881, the Grand Lady has been preserved and transformed into a dream venue for those envisioning a luxurious, elegant wedding in Central Texas. We at Cloud Craft Studios have captured countless weddings at the Grand Lady, and we have nothing but good things to say about this highly desirable wedding venue.
The first thing to note about the Grand Lady is its dedication to history and helping you have the best start to your own unique story. The venue goes above and beyond to cater to you and your needs for your special day, and the unique aspects of the historic home and its stunning property easily suit the vision of all brides. All couples can enjoy the mansion as they get ready for their ceremony, and they can use the eight beautiful rooms for photos, brunch, cocktails, and other pre-ceremony events.
One characteristic that sets the Grand Lady apart from other wedding venues in Central Texas is the half-acre flower farm on the property. Every couple has the privilege of having flowers directly from the farm for the floral arrangements at their wedding ceremony and reception. There are various options for your wedding flowers, including two specific packages you can choose from for either a big wedding or a small wedding. Couples can also enjoy the garden for unique, lively photos and other events as allowed by the Grand Lady. Our couple Isabeau and Brady used a variety of white flowers for their wedding day florals, and Isabeau’s bouquet captured the full potential of what the Grand Lady’s flowers can do.
For your outdoor wedding ceremony, the lawn at the Grand Lady is the perfect location. You have the choice for a natural background of gorgeous oak trees, or you can choose to have the white historic mansion behind you as you exchange vows. Our couple Jenae and Emre chose to face away from the mansion for their outdoor ceremony. They added a stunning wedding altar featuring stacked half arches, disco balls, and gorgeous flowers from the Grand Lady’s own flower garden. Another Cloud Craft Studio couple, Darby and Garret, took advantage of the covered breezeway on the property because of rain on their wedding day. Rain or shine, this covered ceremony space makes for a wonderfully shady spot to start your forever.
The reception hall on the property of the Grand Lady is a modern building carefully built to be the best wedding reception venue close to Austin, Texas. With large windows that run from the floor to the ceiling and space to fit up to 250 guests, the reception is an ideal spot to host your wedding guests on your special day. The guests at Sam and Jose’s wedding had more than enough space to break it down to the wedding DJ’s playlists, and the decorations at Emily and Connor’s wedding blended perfectly with the chic minimalism of the venue.
If an intimate wedding in a boutique wedding venue is the kind of event you imagine for the best day of your life, the Grand Lady is the Austin wedding venue for you.
