Texas Barn Weddings: Finding Your Dream Wedding Venue in New Ulm

Written by The Vine | 08 April 2024

Choosing a wedding venue can feel like a daunting task as you tour one space after another. Knowing what type of event you want will be a perfect start to your venue search. Once you know you want to tour wedding barn venues in Texas, these tips will help you choose the best venue for your ceremony and reception.  

Versatile Spaces

One of the most important determining factors when choosing a venue is its size. Look for a wedding barn venue in Texas that will match the number of guests you plan to invite. Venues will vary significantly in size, accommodating as little as eight to ten guests or well over 500 wedding attendees. Some venues offer increased flexibility by having multiple spaces that can accommodate different wedding sizes. 

The Vine boasts seven indoor and outdoor private venue locations that are perfect for weddings of all sizes. Couples looking to invite 50 to 500 guests will find the ideal space for an intimate wedding experience. The Union Bell Chapel is a beautiful space with a vaulted ceiling and large windows that allow the light to flood in across the reclaimed wood floor and padded pews. For couples looking to exchange vows under the expansive Texas sky, the banks of Brunwine Lake are the ideal outdoor setting. Neal’s Garden and Janet’s Courtyard are perfect outdoor spaces for an intimate cocktail hour before or after the ceremony. The Barrel Barn is an ample indoor space that creates a rustic yet elegant reception venue. 

Bride and Groom Accommodations 

In addition to event spaces, the best wedding barn venues in Texas also consider the bride and groom. Ask the venue if they have dedicated private spaces where the bride, groom, bridal party, and parents can get ready for the wedding. Getting ready on site will make the day calmer and more enjoyable for everyone. 

The Vine offers cottages for the bride and groom to have a private and relaxing space to get ready for their big day. The Wild Rose Cottage features a full salon with everything the bride and her bridesmaids need. The Lonestar Lounge features a kitchen, lounge, and yard games for the groom and his groomsmen. 

Scenic Surroundings

You want your wedding to transport you to a magical place that feels like the world is celebrating your nuptials. This means choosing a venue that is private and peaceful and doesn’t allow for outside distractions. Wedding barn venues in Texas offer this by having a country setting and plenty of acreage to create a buffer around your love bubble. Tucked between Austin and Houston, The Vine is close enough to be convenient and secluded enough to be peaceful. Couples can choose the perfect setting for the ambiance and atmosphere they want to create for their wedding. At the Tine Vine, they can select a lakeside, chapel, garden, courtyard, or barn setting. 

Professional Staff 

The best wedding barn venues in Texas have staff that delivers five-star service. It is your wedding day, and they should want to make it memorable for all the right reasons. Ask the venue how many staff will be working on the day of and during your wedding. Find out what services the venue will provide and what is not included. 

Before you choose a venue, read reviews from others who have previously booked it for their event. The Vine has a strong track record of five-star reviews, with guests mentioning the friendly and accommodating staff. 

Charming Details

What makes one wedding barn venue in Texas stand out from the others? It is in the details. The little details add the extra magic and charm that will make your wedding day truly special. At the Vine, you will find these details in each of the seven event spaces. The chapel has reclaimed wood beams and vintage chandeliers. The courtyard has comfortable seating, a large stone firepit, outdoor games, and romantic string lights. The barrel barn has an oversized real-wood stone fireplace and authentic wood barrels that were once used for aging wine.
