Villa Antonia is a dream come true! I knew the first time my husband and I visited, it was the only place I wanted to get married. There are many spaces throughout the venue to accommodate indoor and outdoor events and the venue makes it feel as if you are in a completely different country. The staff is absolutely amazing and treated not only us (bride and groom), but our guests like family! Chris Spady is such a joy to work with and it was like having a wedding planner. She was on top of every single detail of our wedding and it truly showed, because our day ran so smoothly! Maria is one of the sweetest people we have ever met and was a huge help on the day of our wedding. She took care of my entire family and we are so thankful for all she did. Chris and Maria worked so hard and made sure no one had to worry about a thing except to enjoy the day. Our day was perfect and we cannot thank the Villa Antonia team enough for making our day everything we wanted and more! –Kathryn G.
We knew we wanted to do a fully DIY wedding but still needed a beautiful backdrop to serve as a canvas. As soon as we arrived at Villa Antonia, we were speechless and taken aback at how beautiful the venue was. It’s atmosphere was romantic and magical at the same time. With so many options, you can be creative with how unique you wanted your wedding to be. The staff was just as amazing and was completely accommodating. We actually had to postpone our wedding during covid and they were so helpful with making something so stressful, so much easier. Chris was spectacular and a superstar. With her help and our coordinator Koehne Barlow, they made a miracle out of a wedding that was almost, just almost a last minute disaster especially with the wind. –Lorreda S.
Where do I even begin? Villa Antonia is seriously stunning from the interiors to the gorgeous exteriors and landscaping. Also, how do I even get over that view?! Amy is absolutely wonderful to work with and so professional! If you’re looking for the perfect venue with european flair and amazing views, then book Villa Antonia! -Amy K.

Securing the Villa Antonia is like having cheat codes to having the best wedding possible. I don't think there is a nicer wedding venue this side of being a celebrity or millionaire. And even if you were, you would still want to book this place. Although your mind makes you want to think it's hard to get to, nobody had trouble finding the place, and once there, the setting around the venue, and every detail of the venue itself provided an absurdly enchanting experience. The staff that they had helping us out, mainly Chris Spady, was a superstar standout. I'm so glad we stuck with this venue. It was a hit. The pictures are fabulous. And my memories of my night there will be cherished for as long as I am around.

The most stunning venue imaginable. Sensational views, with a romantic tuscan vibe. What's really great is the venue includes an on-site coordinator day-of. We lucked out with having Chris there to run the show while we enjoyed our wedding with friends and family. She took care of all the details so we didn't have to worry about a thing!

Man, oh man. I'm a wedding photographer and this is one of my absolute FAVORITE venues in Austin. You truly feel like you've escaped to Europe. It is so unique - there is nothing else like it in Austin. The interior of the bridal suite has the most magical lighting - as does the terrace where the ceremony takes place (around sunset). There are so many photogenic nooks and crannies at this venue - it's a treasure trove for a photographer. I can't wait to work here again in June of 2021 and hopefully many, many more times!

Villa Antonia is absolutely magical! Everything about this venue is so perfect, from the Italian villa vibes, the view overlooking Lake Travis, and all of the different spaces you can utilize at this venue. Chris Spady, the venue coordinator, is such a joy to work with and was incredibly helpful in answering all of my questions (which was a lot since I was planning an Austin wedding from Dallas). Our friends and family could not stop talking about how beautiful our venue was, and I really believe pictures don't do this place justice. This was the only venue we looked at because I knew before we had even parked the car for our tour that we wouldn't find anything as breathtaking as this venue. I am forever grateful that I got to marry the love of my life in such a magical setting!

The best wedding venue you'll find in the Austin area. Looks way more expensive than typical venues, but it isn't! Also comes with top of the line staff - lead by the one and only, Ms. Chris - to help make your wedding day run smoothly. Guests said it was the best wedding venue they had ever been to. No regrets whatsoever.

This place is gorgeous, it was great experience (speaking as a guest of a wedding) to take in, lots of space and many different areas to take pictures and get high quality videos. The ambience of this place was very much enjoyed, noone wanted to leave this place after the event. Definitely would recommend this venue to anyone looking into a place for wedding, reunions, parties, ect.

If you book this venue you won't regret it! It is sooo amazing!! This is one of the most high class venues I have ever been to! It is not only beautiful for photos but do yourself a favor and add video to your package! It's a joy just to walk around in this venue so if there is an open house do yourself another favor and at least visit this venue! On top of all of that you will fall in love with the venue manager/coordinator Chris, she is the cherry on top of this venue! I can't say enough good things about her, if you are stressed out, her calm nature will mellow out even the most tensed brides.

My review and 5 star rating is based on our tour of Villa Antonia. We are from Houston. Our little brother and his fiance' are military living in Maryland and could not fly out to visit wedding venues. We are a tight knit family and would do anything for family!We arrived about 20 mins late. We apologized to Jim, who is our tour guide. He is so professional and patient with us. Upon arriving to the Villa Antonia, there is some anticipation. You get there and the views, the estate is breath-taking! But having Jim there really help us imagine a wedding filled with fantastic moments our family is about to part-take in.There are so many places to take pictures. I think that was what made our tour the longest. lol Villa Antonia is absolutely hands down, one of the best venues in Austin.We are narrowing down the dates! We can't wait to experience Villa Antonia! Make beautiful memories! It is like you are in Europe!Thank you Jim for taking the time to give us a great tour! It ruined it for all the other venues we saw that day! We saw a total of 5.

Lovely venue, worth the trip. Transports to Italy said my friend. To me, it has an authentic rustic feeling you don't find nearby my location. The parking attendants were Not nice, not helpful. I was in red dress high heels, no offer to give me a ride downhill. I was the first wedding guest... they were not busy at all.

Villa Antonia is a dream come true. There are many hidden gems and unique spots here that you can really make it work for you in so many fun ways. Chris, the venue coordinator, is absolutely incredible and extremely accommodating. We felt like we had two wedding planners because she did so much to help us. We wanted our wedding to be outside and she worked with us and our planner to come up with creative ways to use the space. Also, when we had to schedule due to covid19, the ladies at Vill Antonia worked with us for weeks until we found a new date and refunded us for what we had previously overspent on. Love this venue!!!
