Whether your Central Texas wedding is a destination or practically in your own backyard, make it feel like a vacation for all of your guests!
- If most of your guests are staying at the same hotel, make a goodie bag of items that are true to Austin. A map, Stubb’s BBQ Sauce, the recipe to a Mexican Martini, Keep Austin Weird stickers, Tyler’s t-shirt, or a package of Kerbey Lane pancake mix are just a few ideas to help get you started.
- Have your rehearsal dinner at your favorite Austin area restaurant! The best thing about this part of Texas is the food, duh! BBQ and margaritas tend to rule this town, so take advantage of it and introduce your family and friends to a place they can’t find anywhere else. Here are a few of my fav’s:
o The Salt Lick
o Z-Tejas
o Threadgill's
o Moonshine
- If you know of guests that are arriving earlier in the week, send them a “Must See” list so they’re not just hangin’ out in the hotel all week! Send them down South Congress to check out the trailers, they can get their exercise around Lady Bird Lake, have dinner and a movie at Alamo Drafthouse, or even venture off into Wimberley for a wine tasting, incredible views, and fun shopping!
These are just a few of my favorites… if you would like to share your favorites with us and other Winfield brides, send me an email and I'll be sure to spread the word!! robyn.thewinfieldinn@gmail.com
Have fun!!!
