Commodore Perry Estate

Commodore Perry Estate: Historic Mansion & Garden Wedding Venue | Austin, TX

Commodore Perry Estate is a treasured Austin landmark at 4100 Red River Street, reimagined by designer Ken Fulk with modern glamour. Part of the Auberge Collection and a Two MICHELIN Key hotel, the Estate sits in a private, walled compound of nearly 10 acres on Waller Creek, in the heart of the city and about a 20-minute drive from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The grounds include a 10,800-square-foot mansion, a chapel and formal gardens, set up in the style of a historic country estate. For couples, it is a rare chance to exchange vows on the steps of one of Austin’s most significant architectural landmarks.

What sets the Estate apart is the privacy and variety of its spaces. Couples can host the whole celebration on one property, from welcome drinks to farewell brunch, without repeating a setting:

The Chapel: A restored non-denominational chapel with stained glass windows, vaulted ceilings and stone floors. With 1,581 sq. ft. indoors and 1,300 sq. ft. outdoors, it seats up to 129 guests and has state-of-the-art audio-visual capabilities. Doors open to the gardens, making it suitable for ceremonies, receptions and cocktail parties.

The Sunken Gardens: The Estate’s largest venue, with 11,088 sq. ft. of manicured grounds and the Mansion as a backdrop. It holds up to 175 guests for ceremonies, receptions or cocktail hours, with or without a tent.

Lutie’s Garden Restaurant: An 850 sq. ft. garden restaurant named for Estate matriarch Lutie Perry, holding up to 75 guests. It can be reserved after the ceremony for an indoor-outdoor reception or after-party, with modern, chef-driven menus built on local ingredients.

The Garden Nook: A 160 sq. ft. space for small gatherings.

The Mansion: Rooms including the Library, Dining Room, Solarium, Living Room and Loggia are available for smaller celebrations and events.

Stay: The Estate has 54 guest rooms and suites, in the Inn and the Mansion. Couples can request a room block or a resort buyout, but a room block is not required to host an event.

Inclusive Venue Fees: The Estate charges one flat venue fee for events of any size. For larger celebrations of more than 50 guests, the fee covers exclusive use of the selected event spaces, custom dining tables and chairs, lounge furniture and bars, glassware, china, silverware, napkins, setup and breakdown, and event staffing. Weddings of 50 guests or fewer receive a similar package.

Planning & Music: A dedicated event manager assists with venue details, and a wedding planner is required for all weddings, involved at least three months ahead. Amplified music from a DJ or live band is allowed inside the Chapel or on the Chapel Terrace for receptions, and acoustic music is permitted on the outdoor lawns.

Guests also enjoy Lutie’s custom menus with Texan flair, the spa suite, and experiences such as chef-prepared picnics.
