Avalon Legacy Ranch is a beautiful venue for a wedding!…read more Came into McKinney for a wedding at this spot and the weather was really showing off this day. We had a shuttle take us from the Downtown McKinney area to the venue and it was a short-ish ride through ranches and open spaces. Once we arrived, the venue was beautifully laid out. We walked through where the reception would be (an indoor and outdoor concept) and went to where the ceremony was held. The wedding was held in the afternoon at the perfect time where it wasn't too hot and had a nice breeze rolling through the trees. The space where the ceremony was in relation to where the reception was isn't too far of a walk and, although not heel friendly, it wasn't too bad. There are many great spots to take photos at and to also hangout in between the ceremony and reception. The staff working the event was super nice and helpful the whole night. The venue itself was such a beautiful space for such a special life event.

We attended a wedding here last night and still can't stop smiling at what a beautiful venue this…read morewas! It had a beautiful open air chapel with fun sliding barn doors at the entrance. Walk back on the compressed gravel trail to the main building and the reception was on the huge covered porch. There were space heaters mounted up above and put out just the right amount of heat on a coolish but beautiful evening. Great lighting on the patio, room for the double sided buffet line, tables and chairs for the reception attendees and just the right amount of room for the DJ and dance floor. I'm not sure how many guests were in attendance but I would guess around 150 or so. The inside powder room was adorable, complete with a pull chain to flush. Outdoors in the patio were more bathrooms for the cowboys and cowgirls in attendance. The overall vibe was comfortable- rustic and romantic, like you were in a beautiful wooded private space. Close enough to the city, but so fun to drive in and see cows in the field right next to the entry road!

Inside the reception building they have comfortable seating in one area they have an area an inside that can be set up for you to have a meal area also there is a bar section. One downfall is there is only ONE bathroom which to me is an issue. When you have 50-150 people there an there is one bathroom an people have to wait for it that's no go for me. Second downfall for me is that I'm disabled an trying to walk from parking lot to the sidewalk is rough, all the little stones makes walking with a cane difficult. Beside that the staff is polite an are accommodating. Sorry I missed getting pictures of the actual chapel it's super cute.

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.

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.

We went to a lively wedding last night at this venue…read more First the good, aesthetics were beautiful. Grounds were very photogenic and well kept. Parking was plentiful. They chapel was separate from the reception area. Very comfortable. The backdrop for the ceremony was sweet. After the ceremony, the guests walked over to the reception area on a nice paved walkway. The back lawn had turf instead of real grass so walking around that area was easy. We went into the building for cocktails and appetizers. Here's where I had issues. If you are not going to let guests sit down at the dinner tables, for whatever reason, provide seating elsewhere. There was no seating available in the cocktail area or outside. Have some conversation areas. Have a couple of fire pits for February weddings and events. Weddings have elderly guests. Elderly guests need to sit. One bar. When you have 150 people for a wedding, provide more than one bar. Standing in line is not a pleasant experience. Especially when after you get your drink and appetizer, there is nowhere to sit for an hour or so. Now back to the good. The food. I saw one of the servers had Patriot Pig on her shirt so I'm assuming that is where the BBQ came from. It was The Best wedding food we've experienced. The brisket was moist and fabulous. I asked the server in the buffet line for a piece with some fat and he didn't look at me like I was crazy. The green beans were flavorful. Mac and cheese was homemade as were the mashed potatoes. Desserts, little banana puddings, 5 stars. Little apple pies, 1 star, not done at all. I'm not sure where the naked wedding cake came from but it was delicious! The DJ kept things moving but like always in these large barn style venues, the sound was terrible. The staff was all very kind and helpful. The bartenders remained professional even with a constant line all night. Overall a lovely venue with just a couple of misses. Sorry, not many photos.

My daughter only had 6 months to plan a wedding so venue choices were very difficult! We stummbled into this gorgeous place and I had to pinch myself..DONE and DONE! Booked it as soon as I saw it.. Amazing things about this place 1. Daughter wanted all the wedding party to stay on site and basically have a love and Party fest.. Many many bedrooms accomodated EVERYONE and we had a lot in the wedding party! 2. The man cave/ BUNK HOUSE - pool ping pong and bunk beds.. we had several guests that were just a tad to party happy, so we escorted them to the bunkhouse.. The groomsmen played card games and had a wonderful time there.. Its a bunkhous that is just a few yards away from the mail house.. 3. The main house.. DROP dead gorgeous and we had 50 people for the rehersal dinner! Big cozy fireplace and an intimate gathering made everyone toast and tell wonderful stories about the bride and groom.. 4.OMG they have beautiful working hunting doggies! I am not a hunter, but they included a hunt for the groomsmen and their man friends..I enjoyed watching the dogs work..What a beautiful afternoon..and the hunters came home with a LOT of QUAIL! 5. NEW wedding Chapel was just completed and is just so so beautiful.. We had 130 guest and it was plenty of room for dancing and all the tables food and buffet set up! 6. The staff... although I was dubious at first as I only saw one sweetheart of a lady.. She was amazing and was so very accommodating! I just loved her..She was very special and so caring..She is truly a treasure! 7. The nature- not much decor needed here.. this place is on a lot of acreage and the chapel faces sunset.. so the natural beauty is peaceful and just lovely.. All I can say is this place is wonderful and offers so much for the dollar.. Our older guests were comfy sitting by the fire in the main house and drinking wine ,while the young kept the party going on late into the night.My daughter described it as a dream wedding!
