Austin Micro Wedding & Elopement Packages

Austin micro weddings and elopements are becoming increasingly popular. At Red Ridge Receptions, we have over a decade of experience hosting small weddings and elopements at our venue near Austin, Texas, and we’ve helped couples book as few as two weeks before their wedding date!

Why should you consider Red Ridge Receptions for your Austin Micro Wedding or Austin Elopement?

Red Ridge Receptions offers the best blend of beautiful hill country views surrounded by nature, a climate controlled venue, and elegant grand room.

You’ll love our breathtaking panoramic views as you say your vows from one of our hilltop ceremony locations among the towering pines and full oak trees of the Colorado River Valley. You can choose between our ceremony lawn or the custom iron arbor, with both options providing a beautiful backdrop.

Following your intimate ceremony guests will continue your celebrations taking in the epic hill country views from our outdoor deck with bistro lighting and our elegant Grande Room with awe-inspiring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams.

We offer a full-service, all-inclusive experience for our couples planning your micro-wedding or elopement from start to finish, allowing you to fully enjoy your wedding without having to do any "work" on your wedding day. Our staff will make sure you have the time and peace of mind to truly enjoy every moment of your wedding experience.

You can still have a beautiful wedding ceremony and photos without the cost of a full wedding reception or the impersonal experience of going  to a courthouse or chapel.

Convenient location

Our location is close to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, making it easy for out of town guests to attend. Downtown Austin is just over 45 minutes away, allowing guests to experience all the history and charm of Austin while also enjoying the picturesque views of the Colorado River valley at Red Ridge Receptions.
