The Full Wedding Weekend Package

River Yurt Village sits on 21 acres along the Medina River in Bandera, Texas, one block off Main Street and a quarter mile past the Beverage Barn. The weekend package hands you the whole property: the covered 40' x 60' pavilion that seats up to 150 guests, the enclosed air-conditioned reception hall, the catering kitchen, the covered walkway between them, and two nights across all nine yurts for up to 40 guests.

Friday afternoon your people arrive and check into the yurts instead of scattering to motels in three different towns. Each yurt has a private cedar hot tub in its own gazebo, an Argentine gaucho grill, air conditioning and heat, and all linens, pillows and towels provided. The rehearsal dinner happens indoors in the hall or outside under the stars, and the evening usually ends around the fire pit with somebody in a hot tub still talking at midnight.

Saturday is unhurried because nobody is driving in. The wedding party gets ready on site. The ceremony is in the pavilion, under the roof, so the forecast is not part of the plan. Dinner and dancing follow between the hall and the pavilion, linked by the covered walkway, which means guests move from cool room to string lights and back without ever stepping into the weather. Sunday is a farewell brunch under the oaks, then checkout.

Bring your own caterer, florist, DJ or band and photographer. The catering kitchen sits beside the hall on the same covered walkway, so your caterer works in a real prep space and plates travel under cover to the tables. The gravel drive runs up to the venue area for load-in and load-out, and having Friday on the property means setup does not have to happen in a rush on Saturday morning.

Vendors will ask about parking and unloading, the power at their station, and how much time they have on site either side of the event. Those depend on your date and layout, so call (726) 238-8188 and we will go through access, power and timing with you or directly with them.
