    The Perfect Place

    HH could not have been more perfect! From within minutes of our tour, my now husband and I knew it would be the place. It is private, spacious, has amazing accommodations including grooms suite and bridal house, and the gardens are so beautiful, they don't require anything extra to still be incredible. We had a very minimalistic style which fit perfectly since this venue is so gorgeous on its own. The cherry on top was getting to work with Danny and Kelsey for planning and day of coordination as well. They truly made our day what it was and we could not be more thankful for them!

    Get married in a secret garden

    Since the first moment we saw Hummingbird House, we knew it was where we wanted to get married. The venue is a beautiful secret garden with so many great spaces for guests to mingle and play games. The Hummingbird House team maintains the grounds so well that you hardly need any decorations - it is so beautiful on its own! Our photographer and videographer both commented on how easy it would be to shoot/film at Hummingbird House because there are so many spectacular spaces. The pictures we’ve gotten so far are breathtaking and seem like they were taken in some magical forest.
    Even in the Texas summer, our guests still wanted to be outside sipping drinks and hanging out in the garden during the reception. The air-conditioned tent was a wonderful respite from the heat during our June wedding. The floor to ceiling windows and the white drapery make the tent magical.
    Danny Hatt (the owner) is incredible! He was so patient with our incessant questions and accommodated many of our requests. Danny has such positive energy and helped ensure our day was exactly what we wanted it to be. We could not recommend Hummingbird House enough!

    As the mother-of-the-groom this past weekend, I was not directly involved with all of the venue details as were my lovely daughter-in-law and her family. I didn't know what to expect!! When we showed up for the rehearsal, HH literally had everything under control. The coordinators working with the wedding party were professional and personal exuding a warmth that went beyond their job. Then, the next day, as the rain stopped and the sun broke through the clouds HH again made the day easy, stress-less, and fun. The decor was just as we had all dreamed it would be -- from my vantage point, there was nothing left undone. From ensuring that our bride was out of sight from most early arriving guests and the groom, to gently making sure we were all where we were supposed be when we were supposed to be there, HH was there for us. Each one of the coordinators was discreetly present each step of the way gently moving us and reminding us of our time line while at the same time allowing the spirit to move us all toward an amazing celebration of marriage to be remembered. I highly recommend HH to all prospective brides and grooms!!

    The French Summer Garden Brunch of our Dreams!!

    We chose this venue because of the natural beauty of the grounds. Danny was so kind and helpful and ansered all of our question. The venue was gorgeous. The two suites on the property for getting ready were amazing. We also loved that there were chairs, tables, and a climate controlled tent included in the rental! This made our rental process weven easier. We did silk a couple silk flower garlands, but didn't need to allocate a ton for florals since the venue was decked out in plants and flowers already!

    Absolutely Loved It

    I'm so thankful I had my wedding at the Hummingbird House! Danny was an amazing coordinator and point-of-contact the whole time we worked together. He was so kind, calm, and fun and really helped me in every way he could. We planned our wedding quickly, and even despite the quick turn-around he was a dream come true!

    The venue was gorgeous as well, even during the off-season! The grounds provided great photo opportunities and we were so cozy in the tent. It served us so well and our guests loved it! Nothing but praise and thanks for Danny and the Hummingbird House!

    Whimsical venue

    My husband and I had our wedding on October of 2021 and it was such a beautiful day. From start to finish Danny was there, helping us along the way before the big day. He was so wonderful to work with and helped so much in making sure everything was perfect. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with all the floral, it just felt whimsical, makes for beautiful photos. I definitely recommend to get married here!

    Magical Place Looks Great in Photos

    A magical place to match a magical day! I was so happy that we selected Hummingbird House as our wedding venue. Danny was so friendly, and helped us pick the perfect date for our wedding. He was quick to respond, and let us come to the venue to do walkthroughs a couple of times. The venue is so beautiful and they do a great job of making sure everything looks nice. My wedding pictures are amazing, and I give this venue five stars for anyone considering of picking them for your big day.

    Perfect garden wedding!

    It was such a pleasure working with Danny at the Hummingbird House to make my wedding vision a reality! Danny was my wedding coordinator, and I couldn't not have asked for the day to have gone any better! The entire day went seamlessly! I would not have changed a thing! The Hummingbird House was so gorgeous with all the beautiful botanicals! The entire day was completely stress-free! Danny also did all the table arrangements which looked absolutely gorgeous! He set everything up the day of and I didn't have to worry about anything! I could not have asked for a more perfect wedding day! Thank you Danny and the Hummingbird House for providing me and my husband such wonderful memories of our wedding!

    It’ll take your breath away!

    This wedding venue is the best in Austin. It feels like a breath of fresh air upon walking in and feels like a floral oasis. It is absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way. I loved that there was so much space for guests to venture out into during the reception and how it didn’t confine guests to one space. The ceremony area is so gorgeous that we didn’t add many extra decorations. The AC in the reception area is the best touch during a summer wedding in Texas. Danny was our on-site manager and was the best and most fun to work with. He always met us with high energy, helpful suggestions and solutions. He was professional at all times and made our wedding vision come true. I would not change a thing about our special day being held at Hummingbird House.

    Austin’s best venue

    Amazing venue and Danny was such a pleasure to work with! He was always available to answer questions and help guide us through everything. Was also very helpful through our covid cancellations and rescheduling. Reasonable price as well!

    Dream Come True!

    If you are undecided, look no further. I think the easiest way to state what sets Hummingbird apart is that, if we had our wedding elsewhere, it wouldn’t have been nearly as beautiful and perfect. I know the trend is barns but I was someone who absolutely did not want to get married in a barn and I was thrilled when I found this place!

    Hummingbird House’s outdoor garden as a ceremony space for our February was gorgeous!! I purposely added very little floral because I felt like the location alone was already beautiful and I still stand by that decision. Then you add the top to bottom glass windows with the beautiful tent shaped draping with a couple of chandeliers? Oh it was just perfect!

    Along with that, Danny was an absolute joy to work with from planning to picking up our gifts and things the next day, I enjoyed every conversation. Let’s not forget what a lifesaver he was on our wedding day! For everything we wanted, he was all over it. For everything we forgot, he was all over it. He did everything from bring me hot water for tea to help my mom bustle my dress.

    My friend’s husband is one of those habitual groomsmen who seems to be in everyone’s wedding including ours haha and he said it was the most beautiful venue he has ever seen. He, and so many others, were so impressed. I can go on and on but flip through the pictures. I tried to add pictures from different parts of the venue to give you an idea.

    Fairy tale atmosphere with the best Coordinator on the planet!

    This place was incredible. I am going to break it down into key parts:
    1) The ceremony space: When you think of a fairy tale wedding this is what you have in mind. Our ceremony was on July 5 at 5:30pm. The temperature was 95 degrees...and all the guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the venue was. Not one person complained about the heat! Based on the time all the seats were in the shade despite the venue be very open and spacious. Seeing people's reactions when they walked in was so exciting!
    2) Reception tent/area: Very nicely air conditioned and was plenty spacious for 190 guests. The dance floor was large but still close to all the tables to make it easy for everyone to dance. There is a great outdoor area next to the tent where we set up yard games which were a huge hit!
    3) Coordinator: Courtney is completely amazing! The words I am about to write won't do her justice. There is an extra fee to get her day of support but my wife and I couldn't imagine executing this event without her. She had every detail for every vendor on point. She tracked people down for specific events (cake cutting, the Horah, receptions exit, drone photo, etc.) . Everyone tells you that your wedding day is about you and your bride/groom but in reality it often feels that isn't the case. I can tell you that Courtney makes you feel like that day is about you. She made sure we had food, that we got drinks, that I didn't have to worry about anything besides dancing. In almost every case she had things taken care of before I had to ask her. I had 100% confidence that she was going to make the event successful and she delivered. Even our guests couldn't believe how good she was. She absolutely made our day amazing.
    4) Tips for the venue: The venue comes as-is with no catering, bartending, DJ, speakers, musician, etc. This was a plus for us because it gave us the freedom to hire the best vendors possible and to not have to use ones from a specific list. Truth be told we ended up using some of their preferred vendors (catering, string music, flowers, etc.) only because they were so good! We also save a TON on alcohol! We had top shelf liquor from Specs (MacCallan 12, Grey Goose, Hendrick's, etc.) and beer and wine for 190 people for around $3000. All the vendors we chose had worked at Hummingbird House at some point and all love it! It made working with multiple vendors much easier because they know the space. One additional benefit is that you get the venue for the entire day! No one else is having a wedding before or after yours so the flexibility of when to start and end is significant. Please note, or venue cost was for 13 hours!!!!
    After looking back at our wedding there isn't one thing we would change. This venue and Courtney are incredible!

    Best day of my life

    My husband and I got married at the Hummingbird House on May 11, 2019 and I cannot say enough good things about it. Of course, the venue itself is gorgeous. The grounds are pristine and everything is tastefully done. But that is not what sold us on this place, it was the customer service. From the moment we toured the venue, we were treated with warmth and respect. The owner, Danny, was professional yet fun and showed us that he truly cared about our day. We worked the coordinator Courtney some as well and she was equally as amazing. Danny was our coordinator for our day of because Courtney was out of town and he absolutely blew us away. He put me so at ease, had an answer to all of my many questions, and just had every little detail taken care of. Booking this venue was the best decision we made for our wedding.

    Beautiful!

    We had our wedding at the Hummingbird House on March 15th and couldn't have been happier with the venue. Our guests were extremely impressed with how beautiful the venue is and how many locations within it were ideal for pictures. Danny is amazing and was very easy to work with during the booking process and Courtney was ridiculously helpful in the lead-up to the wedding and on the actual day. The location is great and they'll even let the guests leave their vehicle at the venue overnight if they've had one too many. I highly recommend Hummingbird House for your wedding!

    Natural, Whimsical, Bohemian

    Everything about this venue is absolutely amazing. From the natural aesthetics to the add-on packages.. we were thoroughly in love with doing business with this venue and thoroughly in love with how our wedding day turned out. Courtney was a godsend. We couldn’t be happier with how beautiful our day was.

    Hummingbird House is a fantasy venue straight from our dreams with a staff that is marvelous to work with. We discovered this venue online and setup a tour right away. The venue speaks for itself, with a beautiful garden that doesn't need much decoration at all, especially for the ceremony. We had our wedding at the end of March and the gazebo was fully flowered and our guests made so many compliments about the venue. Not only that, but Danny and Courtney were amazing to work with! Danny was kind and made us feel welcome right away on our tour, and Courtney, our day of coordinator.... no words can describe how helpful she was on our big day. From coordinating with our vendors and making sure everything went smoothly, to mitigating surprises that inevitably come up on a wedding day, she made our day perfect and made things that could have been disastrous funny memories.
    They also are a really flexible venue that allows you to pick the vendors that will make your day special, but they don't leave you in the dark and do provide awesome preferred vendors as well.
    Cannot recommend this venue enough!

    This venue is amazing! I looked at several venues in Austin but nothing compared to the natural beauty and amazing outdoor/indoor space for our wedding. Courtney, the wedding coordinator, is super responsive and willing to work with you on any questions that you have in order to make your wedding day perfect!

    We looked at countless wedding venues in and around Austin, but each venue we visited was missing something. When we finally visited Hummingbird House we knew immediately it was going to be the venue for our big day. The venue itself is absolutely magical, from all the exotic flora and fauna, to the pool and the little architectural touches around the property. The plants at Hummingbird House are beautiful and there are so many of them you don’t really need to get as many flowers for your big day as you would have at most other venues. Standing on the wedding grounds you are surrounded by so much breathtaking nature. The staff were amazingly friendly and a true delight to work with. Courtney (coordinator) and Danny (owner) really went out of their way to take care of us. We even had some of our vendor contacts email us to tell us what what an amazing job Courtney is doing as our coordinator and what a pleasure she is to work with. Our big day went off without a hitch and we couldn’t have asked for a better backdrop for the pictures or setting for the big celebration with family and friends. If you’re on the fence or just trying to figure out where you want to get married, visit Hummingbird House and experience the magic for yourself!

    Hummingbird House checked off ALL of the boxes for a wedding venue for us! I was starting to lose faith we would find a venue that didn't have a secret clause that we would discover after we got home and reviewed the contract.
    Hummingbird House was completely transparent with us and worked with us to make our day everything we wanted from day ONE. And let me say, the beautiful gardens in the venue helped us save a lot of money in decorations. Who needs to bring in floral arrangements when you have beautiful mother nature tended so beautifully? Courtney was lovely to work with for anything logistical we needed and Danny keeps the venue looking like a fairytale! When our wedding photos came back, I thanked my lucky stars again that I picked Hummingbird House, the lush green backdrops were so gorgeous! I highly recommend a visit to the venue, you won't find a better match in the Austin area!

    We are so happy we chose Hummingbird House to be the place we celebrated our special day! Hummingbird House was the first and only venue we visited and that's all it took. I knew I didn't want to waste time looking anywhere else because I fell in love with it the minute I saw it. Not only is the venue breathtaking but Courtney is amazing. The minute she took over, a load was lifted off my shoulder and I knew I was in good hands. I'm still told how beautiful the wedding and place was. You won't regret choosing Hummingbird House!

    If you are trying to decide whether or not to book this venue, DO IT! This was by far the best choice I made when planning my wedding. Courtney is beyond amazing and I would have been completely lost without her the day of the wedding. Not only is this an amazingly beautiful place to have a wedding, but Courtney goes above and beyond, making this venue well worth the money you will pay for it.

    Hummingbird House was our first venue to tour and we wish it had been our last. We went to one other venue appointment because we did not want to be rude and cancel an hour before. That second place never stood a chance. Hummingbird House was our venue from the moment we got into the Bridal Suite and met Danny. I remember emailing him from the parking lot of that last venue asking him to send us the contract. We couldn't dare let anyone grab our date by wasting more time with other places. Even our puppy Vladimir loved it!

    We may be five months behind in our review, but my husband, Kai, and I had a better day than we could have ever imagined for our wedding. The weather was amazing, (I'm giving Courtney that credit) the venue was set up and arranged perfectly, and we never missed the important moments of our wedding thank to Courtney's ninja-like day of coordinating skills. She knew just when to be there to help us and when to let us sit back and soak it all in.

    Thank you to the amazing team. As a coordinator myself, I don't know how they do this with the small staff that they have. Goes to show that it's not about the number of staff members, rather, it's about the quality and heart of the people who work there. They do the work of 10 people on a daily basis and are in the business of ensuring perfection for their clients. We hope to call them friends from here on out and cannot wait until we have the opportunity to visit HH again.

    Love,
    -Heather, Kai, and Vladimir

    We had our wedding here on June 18th and are officially obsessed with Hummingbird House. Courtney was AMAZING and made sure every detail was perfectly in place. The venue is magical - all of the greenery and flowers make it feel like an enchanted garden. The small details such as the succulent walls and string lights add a lot too - it is intimate, romantic, and beautiful without any added decorations. My day went perfectly with Courtney's help coordinating. I can't thank Hummingbird House enough for our great wedding! All of my guests raved about how amazing of a venue it is, and I have nothing but great memories of our wedding.

    I can't say enough about how beautiful the Hummingbird House was on our wedding day. Courtney and Danny were amazing. The day-of I was able to relax and enjoy getting ready, while Courtney oversaw the decorations and directed the vendors where to go. All of our guests kept telling us they couldn't believe how gorgeous the venue was. It really was the wedding my husband and I dreamed of. Thank you!
