The Ultimate Wedding Venue Checklist: What to Look for (and How Tuscan Oaks Exceeds It)

Choosing your wedding venue is one of the biggest decisions you'll make during the planning process. It sets the tone for your entire celebration—style, flow, experience, and even your photos. But how do you know what to look for in the perfect venue?

At Tuscan Oaks Estate, we’ve helped countless couples turn their dream weddings into reality, and we know exactly what separates a good venue from a truly exceptional one. So before you book, here’s your ultimate wedding venue checklist—along with how Tuscan Oaks checks every box.


1. Is It Beautiful Indoors & Out?

A stunning backdrop is a must—not just for your guests, but for your photos and videos that will last a lifetime. Look for:

  • A ceremony site with natural charm

  • An elegant reception space

  • Beautiful landscaping and architectural features

Tuscan Oaks Delivers: Our 12-acre estate features oak trees, fountains, stone pathways, manicured grounds, and a stunning ballroom—offering multiple photo-worthy settings throughout your day.

2. Does It Offer Privacy?

No couple wants to share their wedding day with strangers or fight for space with other events. Privacy ensures a more intimate and relaxing experience.

Tuscan Oaks Delivers: When you book with us, the entire estate is exclusively yours. It’s your own private villa for the day (or weekend).

3. Are There On-Site Accommodations?

If you have out-of-town guests, or just want the ease of waking up and getting ready in one location, overnight lodging is a huge plus.

Tuscan Oaks Delivers: Our fully furnished 10-bedroom estate sleeps up to 20 guests, allowing you to host a full wedding weekend with ease.

4. Is There a Dedicated Getting Ready Space?

Getting ready photos, bridal prep, and quiet moments before the ceremony all require a well-lit, comfortable space.

Tuscan Oaks Delivers: We offer two large getting-ready suites—perfectly designed with wedding mornings in mind.

5.Can It Accommodate Your Guest List?

Not all venues comfortably fit larger weddings. Be sure your venue has ample space for both the ceremony and reception—indoors and outdoors.

Tuscan Oaks Delivers: Our estate comfortably hosts up to 150 guests, with room to dine, dance, and celebrate in style.

6. Is It Weather-Flexible?

In Texas, weather can change quickly. Having indoor or covered outdoor backup options brings major peace of mind.

Tuscan Oaks Delivers: Our spacious ballroom and covered patios provide elegant alternatives in case of rain or high heat—without sacrificing your aesthetic.

Whether you want full service or just the space, having customizable options can make all the difference.Tuscan Oaks Delivers: We offer both all-inclusive packages and day-only rentals, so you can plan your wedding your way—with support when you need it.
