The Oaks of Ever After is a picturesque indoor/outdoor wedding venue located in the center of 90 acres in the quiet and secluded countryside near Marion, TX. This live oak grove sits between New Braunfels and San Antonio, making it easily accessible for any out-of-town guests. Family-owned and operated, this property is ideal for intimate celebrations of love.
At The Oaks of Ever After, your milestone day begins in the cute Bridal Hideaway and separate Groom's Lounge before you embark on that walk down the long aisle of crushed granite lined with solid oak church pews with seating for 60 that leads you to the base of the 250+ year old Big Oak Tree. The lawn has plenty of space for additional seating, in case your guest list is larger. Once you've exchanged vows, make your way to the Patio for cocktail hour and the rest of the celebrations. Here, you can make the most of the stunning surroundings. A refurbished round metal grain silo functions as a full bar at the edge of the patio, while "the Grove" open air metal structure shaded by live oaks is ideal for dinner. To-be-weds who have envisioned an indoor celebration will be delighted by the vintage barn. With large windows, an open entryway, and sliding barn doors, this space is filled with natural and twinkling lights and is where your DJ or live band can set up for the party, dancing, and celebrating.
The team at The Oaks of Ever After will go the extra mile to help you make your wedding dream a reality. They understand that no two weddings are the same, and offer personalized services to support you. The venue has everything you need with packages tailored just for you. A variety of items are available to rent to put the finishing touches to your setup including an assortment of china, glassware, and silverware as well as arbors, a large wooden cross, and decorative accents such as candle holders, vases, lanterns, charcuterie setups and antique or rustic pieces.
The Oaks of Ever After is a beautiful hidden gem. Our entire experience from start to finish was exactly what we'd dreamed of. The grounds alone are stunning with old oak trees, rustic barns, strings of lights, cool silo area for cocktail hour, and multiple areas for great photo ops. It has everything you need for a perfect wedding. On top of the place itself, the owners made our day incredible. Kind, extremely helpful, attentive and full of good insight, Wim and Rob were amazing! They think of everything and were so kind to all our guests, vendors, family...adults and kids alike! We had such a great time just exisiting in that beautiful space with folks who felt like part of the family. Overall a wonderful experience and cherished memories. Reviewed on 19-11-2023

We can’t say enough about this wonderful venue! From start to finish we had an amazing experience for our daughter’s wedding this past weekend. The venue itself is a gorgeous outdoor space that is rustic and charming, surrounded by trees and natural beauty. The crown jewel is the majestic Oak Tree that was the perfect centerpiece for the wedding ceremony. We loved the wooden church pews for our guests too! Our wedding party had plenty of space to prepare for the day with the charming Bridal Hideway and separate Groom’s Room. The reception area had covered pole barn for music and dancing and a cute silo bar. Our caterers had a great space to prepare the meal and serve it in the beautiful open air structure we used for the dining area. Because it was a bit chilly, we opted for a tent within that area and kept our guests warm and cozy. The owners, Wimberly and Rob could not have been more gracious and accommodating to our every need. They were with us from start to finish and provided support and guidance wherever needed. We are thrilled we chose this venue! Reviewed on 16-11-2023

I have worked at a lot of venues in my time as coordinator and this is by far one of my favorites . It’s has such a classic southern appeal and charm about it, pictures do no justice : the owners are amazing and take great pride in the beautiful place they have created. It’s a hidden treasure and has so much potential to fit any special occasion. A must see and once you do you can’t help but fall in love with it . . Reviewed on 12-11-2023

I am going to start this review raving about the venue owners. Book your tour with this venue. Pictures cannot fully show all the beauty this venue has to offer. Words cannot well enough describe how amazing the venue owners are.The venue is SO beautiful and unique but also has the most amazing owners to work with. Rob and Wimberly are so kind, genuine and really care about you and your wedding. She responded to every single text, when I had questions throughout an entire year of wedding planning. She has so many unique decorations to use that she sets up the morning of. They stay present throughout the entire wedding and constantly are available and make sure everything is going well. They even moved a few items after the ceremony to set up for the reception during cocktail hour. Other vendors from my wedding loved to work with the vendor owners as well. Wimberly also recommended many vendors that were amazing and who went above and beyond!The venue itself is truly amazing. You can tell Rob and Wimberly put so much thought into the design and care of the site. If you are looking for an outdoor wedding site, I highly recommend this venue. There are many beautiful venues out there but not many also have the amazing support the Rob and Wimberly provide. All of the wedding guests were BLOWN away by the venue. Reviewed on 09-10-2023
Our daughter was married here recently and the celebration was all she hoped it to be. This venue is SO beautiful and peaceful. The owners worked with her on plans and ideas, then created a stunning setting with all they discussed. As one of our guests said, “it was right out of a Hallmark movie”. Each aspect of the wedding celebration had its own space - the ceremony under a majestic oak tree, dinner within a “wall-less chapel”, and dancing in a lighted barn. We could not be happier with the entire planning and executing process. We highly recommend the Oaks of Ever After! Thank you, Wimberly and Rob, for your kindness, attention to detail, beautifully carried out event, and the encouragement to our bride and groom throughout the planning and day of the celebration.

Sharon Carrillo(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-04-2023 I got married yesterday and this venue..just wow.Wimberly and Rob are incredible: they went above and beyond to ensure our day was special. After I expressed how much I disliked my bouquet, Wimberly got fresh flowers from her garden and fixed it for me creating the most beautiful bouquet I would have imagined! Both Wimberly and Rob were attentive, caring, friendly, and overall a joy to work with.Aside from them, the venue is incredible. Getting married under their oak tree is a thing out of a fairy tale: the venue name is well deserved. The dinner area and dance floor were separate so it made the entire event flow smoothly.10/10 recommend. We will likely celebrate a keystone anniversary here in the future! Reviewed on 16-04-2023
Ashley Boldt(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-03-2023 What a dream of a wedding! The venue is absolutely stunning! Rob and Wimberly made sure everything ran smoothly and flawless! This was the most special and stress free day of our lives! I can’t express how enjoyable the planning process was with them. They are quick to answer questions and offer advice, they take tremendous care of the property, and they truly care about their clients. They 100% executed the picture I had in my head! Schedule your interview with Rob and Wimberly today. You ABSOLUTELY will not be disappointed! The beautiful pictures do not do this venue justice. You must see it in person! Reviewed on 07-04-2023
Jayci Rhein(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-10-2021 There is no photo that will do this venue justice - stepping onto the property and feeling the serenity of the space took my breath away!
