Def Book the Gin at Hidalgo Falls!

We had my daughter's wedding at The Gin at Hidalgo Falls on 6/13/2020 and it was FABULOUS (even though it was in the middle of a pandemic, COVID 19)!
During the planning process, Laura and Carly were willing to let us pop in as needed when we had planning and layout questions and I cannot tell you how many times they updated the layout on "All Seated" to accommodate the ever changing environment and number of guest regulations due to COVID. That said, we rented the entire venue for Friday night which worked out great for the Saturday wedding. It allowed the wedding party to stay on site and we were able to start all our events for the weekend on time because of that convenience. The cottages are so cute and all the bridesmaids commented on how comfortable the beds were. There were plenty of plugs for all the girls to get ready for rehearsal and the wedding and our hair stylist and make-up artist also had plenty of room to work. The girls, and guys, loved hanging out and it provided time to "chill" before all the festivities began or in between events.
I cannot say enough about how easy Laura and Carly were to work with, especially during this ever changing climate. They were problem solvers and always willing to lift a helping hand, from moving chairs at the last minute to handling issues with guests to helping pick up any trash that may have been left behind due to decorating.
If you are looking for something different, something out of the ordinary, something that isn't a barn, a place that is relaxing and away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is your place.

We love the Gin!!

The Gin is a stunningly beautiful and unique venue on a gorgeous piece of property. Perfectly centered between College Station and Navasota for guests to book hotel rooms and spend the weekend there if they please! The staff at the Gin are so genuine, kind, great communicators, and are so flexible! From beginning to end, we felt completely welcomed and at home. We could not have asked for a better experience. 10/10 would recommend!!

Amazing Venue!

Absolutely gorgeous venue! We had out wedding here 10/2022 and everything was perfect! We still have our guests reeling over our venue. If I had to do it all over again, I would pick The Gin over and over.
1. The Staff - Nothing short of amazing. Carly is the best, very knowledgeable, confident, organized and has wonderful communication skills.
2. Venue - breathtaking, it's naturally beautiful so there is no reason to have to "over decorate"
3. Owner(s)- The best! I was always in the know and never had to question anything.
If you are on the fence, schedule a tour once you are there any doubt will fade right away. I still can't believe I had my DREAM wedding!
