boutique wedding and event venue
Not all weddings fit into the same traditional mold. And we love that.
19704 Hog Eye Rd. | Manor, Texas
A wedding affords an opportunity for the intimacy of love between two people to collide with an entire room’s love for them.
Our mission is to create an uniquely inspired space where those beautiful collisions of love can happen.
We believe your wedding should be as unique as your tribe.

Who We Are
The Grand Lady team is composed of three families - architects, designers, friends - with a vision for what weddings can be. Weddings are a celebration of your "whole family" - your grandparents, cousins, siblings, AND your co-workers and college roommates.
For us, weddings are about people and shared lives, so we believe that where this celebration happens should be intimate and memorable. And
intentional.
Your wedding is a celebration of partnership, family, and friendship, and we believe the place where this happens matters deeply.

This is your chance to add your wedding story to her rich history.

what we offer...
A space that is flexible
Weddings may not be one size fits all, but we have developed a venue that can fit all sizes. From micro-weddings to full-blown events, we can scale to size and meet you where you are.
A space that is welcoming
We value you and your experience, so we will meet you where you are. We aim to make you feel seen and heard, and we show that through our attention to detail and willingness to help make your experience the best.
A space of your own
The Grand Lady is one of the only venues you can find that not only offers a 24 hour rental with ceremony and reception spaces, but also overnight accommodations for the newlyweds.
What Makes Us Unique
01
The historic home
Centered around an architectural masterpiece, The Grand Lady’s craftsman features and ornate details offer the perfect touches of history for your wedding photos and story.
02
Your 24-hour rental
When The Grand Lady is yours for the day, you won’t have to spend half of your wedding day sitting in an impersonal hotel, waiting until you can head to the venue. And you won’t have to head to a hotel afterwards, either. Our newlyweds are welcome to stay the night in their own room.
03
Our intentional design
We’ll never box you in to a “one size fits all” package. Our team of architects and designers have worked together to create an intentional space designed to improve flexibility and minimize disorganization for your event.
Originally built as a wedding present and passed on to brides for over 100 years, The Grand Lady proudly stands on 20 acres of land only 14 miles east of Austin. This centenarian is far from a rehab project. She has been lovingly cared for throughout her entire life and has never once fallen into disrepair. Her handcrafted stained glass windows and custom milled details cannot be replicated in any venue of today and make the perfect backdrop to your wedding day.
