    Magnolia Grace Ranch

    My daughter's wedding was held at Magnolia Grace Ranch on June 11, and we had a wonderful…read moreexperience! Some highlights: * I was initially apprehensive about the Texas weather, but the venue is well-equipped to accommodate all weather conditions. Thankfully, it didn't rain, but it was reassuring to know there was plenty of indoor space available. * The indoor venue is spacious enough to comfortably host 200+ guests, with room for a dance floor and even an indoor ceremony if it had rained on us. Round tables, chairs, decor and linens for FREE borrow included. * The outdoor ceremony area was lush, beautiful, shaded, and surprisingly breezy for a 5 PM June Texas wedding. My daughter called it a "Twilight movies vibe with chandeliers in the trees" haha * The bridal suite was large and secure, featuring a coded lock for privacy and amazing lighting for all the bridesmaids makeup vanities. The groom and groomsmen had their own separate space as well with private access to the fishing pond. * Parking was plentiful and convenient for guests. * Outside vendors were welcomed, allowing us to bring in our own caterer, DJ, and photo booth. The photo booth was a huge hit with guests of all ages! * The air conditioning was ice cold inside, which everyone appreciated during a Texas summer wedding!! * The venue was exceptionally clean, spacious, and organized. * One of the best surprises was the huge decor and linen closet available for couples to use at no additional charge. There were countless decor options available. * Having both indoor and outdoor bar areas was a fantastic feature for guests. * Pricing was very reasonable and affordable compared to many other venues. My only suggestion would be to add a few patio swings, benches, or outdoor seating areas for guests who may want a quiet break from the dancing and music inside. Overall, Magnolia Grace Ranch provided a beautiful setting for our daughter's special day, and we would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a wedding venue in North Texas!

    Posting here since they keep removing my reviews on G maps…read more Beware of this venue. I had not said anything because I frankly have not had the energy to. I have the energy now. Our experience wasn't absolutely horrible, but it definitely could've been better. Why you shouldn't book here: Lack of communication and not fulfilling contract obligations We booked MGR in Jan of 2023. Got married Oct 2023. Here's proof in case they try saying we weren't a client. We were promised, per the contract, I believe it was 200 lbs of ice. There was maybe 20. We had to ask the "on-site coordinator", which was really just a young adult and her boyfriend who not to mention were asleep when we went to ask, for more ice. We were not told upon signing the venue was being sold to new owners, which we wish we had known. We toured with Charmin Skipper, who like her name suggests, brought all the charm to this place. We were disappointed to find out she would not be the on site coordinator on our wedding day as previously discussed. The grooms suite was INFESTED with crickets. Of course for the time of year and location it is nearly impossible to keep them out completely, but it wasn't just 3-10. It was around 200 in the grooms suite, NO exaggeration. Did they not inspect the area prior to us entering??? The only other negative part of our experience was being extremely rushed to leave the building. I mean lights being turned off by the coordinators before we were even out the door. It felt like we were kicked out, left a sour taste on what's supposed to be a memorable night. Like I said, not horrible, but not great. What motivated me to write this review is because I randomly received this text from Karen, the owner yesterday. I constantly get posts on my Facebook feed regarding MGR because we're both in wedding groups, I simply haven't left the groups and they are looking for clients of course. Nothing wrong with that. In promotional posts they've made, or others posted by other people, I've made comments saying "we got married here, feel free to message me if you have any questions about our experience" or along the lines of this. Nothing negative just offering feedback about our experience! So to receive a threat from the owner to be pressed charges against over MY opinion that I'm ENTITLED to have because of course we paid to have our wedding here, is absurd. No wonder the recent reviews are so bad, and not surprised to hear they're up for sale AGAIN. You cannot silence people for having an opinion, Karen. I didn't even say anything bad, but again she couldn't bother responding when I asked what she was talking about.

    I'm writing this review from the perspective of a wedding guest at River Road Venue. I attended a…read morewedding here in early November and it was wonderful. The location in Anna, TX is remote enough to make it feel secluded. Set off a country road, there is plenty of open field parking. From what I could see, there was the main reception building and the outdoor wedding space was across the creek. Upon arrival to the reception area, very nice, top of the line golf carts were waiting to chauffeur guests to the outdoor ceremony area. The ceremony took place outdoors past a small creek where there was a quaint bridge. The seating was set up in neat rows where the centerpiece had a lovely antique chandelier. There was also a mic set up and outdoor speakers so the vows could be easily heard as well as music to bookend the ceremony. Our friends who got married are huge Anglophiles and they chose "London Calling" by The Clash to take their first walk down the aisle as man and wife. Great touch! For the reception, the building has lots of long tables and some round ones. There was also a dance floor space. The only thing I would say here, is I wish there were some noise abatement measures. While there were speakers to amplify the toasts and speeches, the large space was too boomy to hear with clarity. Other than that, the space was very nice. There are also rooms to the sides of the main room for the bridesmaids and groomsmen to get ready. The restrooms were also very clean and well maintained. Overall, I thought River Road Venue was a lovely place to attend a wedding and had beautiful grounds. I would definitely love to attend another wedding here again sometime.

    Beautiful venue. Venue grounds were very well kept and quiet. The chapel and reception hall were…read moreamazing. Very good venue for 150 guests or less. Our day-of host, Pete, was very courteous and helpful. We did have trouble getting management to respond to our emails and texts in the months leading up to the wedding. At one point, we didn't hear back for a full month. We also were told during our initial tour that the sound systems installed in the chapel and reception hall would be available to use, but were later told that we couldn't use the sound systems that are permanently installed, and rather we had to provide our own speakers and equipment. Other than the communication trouble and speaker situation, we really enjoyed having our wedding at River Road.
