Whole Property Buyouts for Your Wedding at The Wayback

When you're planning your wedding, one of the biggest decisions you'll make is choosing a venue that can host more than just your ceremony and reception. For couples who value privacy, personalization, and the ability to relax and celebrate with their closest friends and family over an entire weekend, a complete property buyout at The Wayback offers something unique.

Not only would you have complete access to all eight cottages, but also the cafe, the back lawn, and every beautiful corner of our Texas Hill Country property for your wedding weekend. When the whole property is yours, the options are endless.

Total Privacy and Exclusivity for You and Your Guests

With a full property buyout, The Wayback becomes your private oasis for the weekend. No other events, no other guests, just you, your partner, and the people you love most. This level of privacy allows you to truly relax and be present throughout your wedding, from the moment your guests arrive for your welcome party to the final goodbye at your post-wedding brunch.

Your wedding party and closest family members can wake up steps away from where you'll say "I do," enjoy coffee on their cottage porch, and gather together without worrying about transportation or schedules. It transforms your wedding from a single-day event into a weekend retreat that everyone will remember for years to come.

A Customizable Experience from Start to Finish

When you have the entire property, you have the freedom to design every moment of your wedding weekend exactly as you envision it. Start with a welcome party on Thursday evening at the Wayback Cafe, where guests can arrive, settle in, and enjoy cocktails and appetizers prepared by our Wayback Cafe team. Host your rehearsal dinner Friday night on the back lawn under the stars, with customizable farm-to-table menus for you and your guests to enjoy.

Saturday, your ceremony can be on our back lawn overlooking Texas Hill Country, cocktail hour by the cabana, and a reception that flows seamlessly from indoor to outdoors across the property. Then, on Sunday morning, gather everyone for a post-wedding brunch on the cafe patio before sending your guests off with memories they will never forget.

The beauty of a complete buyout is that you're not constrained by time or space. Want to have a campfire during your welcome party? Done. Dreaming of a morning-after pool party before brunch? Absolutely. The entire weekend is yours to design.

Flexibility Across The Property

One of the most valuable aspects of having the entire property is the ability to move freely between The Wayback's different areas throughout your wedding weekend. Guests staying in the cottages can walk to the ceremony in minutes, eliminating the stress of coordinating transportation. When it's time to transition from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception, your guests move from one area of The Wayback to another without leaving the property, and really allowing your wedding weekend to be relaxed rather than rushed or complicated. The flexibility of the entire property being available means you can adapt to whatever your wedding weekend needs.

Why Couples Choose a Full Property Buyout at The Wayback

At The Wayback, we've watched couples transform our property into their dream wedding weekend. A full buyout is perfect for couples who want their wedding to feel less like just an event and more like a getaway with their favorite people. It's ideal for those who value quality time with guests, who want to eliminate the stress of logistics and transportation, and who dream of a weekend where every detail reflects their personality and style.

The investment in a full property buyout means investing in memories, not just from your wedding day, but from the entire weekend. It's the late-night conversations on cottage porches, the laughter during welcome party toasts, the quiet moments with your partner before the ceremony, and the joy of waking up Sunday morning surrounded by the people you love most.

Creating Your Perfect Wedding Weekend at The Wayback

When the whole property is yours, you have the freedom to create a wedding weekend that's authentically you. From customizing menus with our Wayback Cafe team to choosing exactly how you want to use each space, a complete property buyout offers possibilities that aren't available with a traditional venue rental.
