We can't say enough good things about Hummingbird House and about Danny. We had a perfect day, and so much of that was due to the beauty of the venue and the coordination. Let's start with the venue. A lot of places we toured were either hotels or ranches - very Texas themed. But Hummingbird has a beautiful garden vibe: super green and lush with so many different kinds of flowers and trees and bushes. I don't think pictures really do it justice; you need to experience the calm and beauty of walking around in the garden. Hummingbird is huge, and all of the spaces in it are very well done. The bride's suite is huge, and we used it not only for the bride's people, but also as a general congregation area for family and the wedding party during pictures. The groom's suite is recently renovated and is the nicest one we've seen. The gazebo area in the heart of the garden provides such nice framing for the ceremony and pictures, and it leads effortlessly into the cocktail hour space. All around the gazebo are lots of green spaces where we set up games during cocktail hour, encouraging people to roam around. The reception area is very big and very comfortable; we had lots of room to dance and none of our tables felt claustrophobic. Finally, the backup ceremony spot in case of rain is surprisingly bright and airy; I was expecting it to be an afterthought space, but it seemed like a lovely place to get married. Next, we have to talk about how amazing Danny is. He owns the venue and also acted as our month-of and day-of coordinator. Danny is the most organized, on-top-of-it person I have ever met, while also being one of the most chill people I've ever met. We'd visit him at Hummingbird and there would be 20 different contractors working on the grounds, and he'd just be chilling in his office. We left every conversation with him feeling more confident and comfortable, and believing that everything was going to work out. We had a rain scare on our wedding day: it rained all week, and then it sprinkled off and on throughout the day. Up until minutes before the ceremony we weren't sure if it was going to be outdoors or indoors (it ended up raining for 2 minutes right after our guests sat down, and then the sun came out and we got to stay outdoors), but the whole time Danny was cool as a cucumber. On the wedding day, we didn't need to have a thought in our heads, because Danny was on top of it, communicating with vendors, setting up our lawn games for us, and making sure all of our personal items were in the right place at the right time. He even anticipated problems, like swapping the cake table and the sweetheart table because the cake was too heavy. And between the ceremony and dinner I think he offered to get us a drink probably 4 times. I really can't stress enough how impressive Danny is, and how much stress he took off of us, which really helped us enjoy our day. Put simply, when Danny's in charge, everything just works like it's supposed to. Finally, I'll note that Hummingbird worked so well with all of our vendors. The venue itself worked well because it was a perfect backdrop for all our flowers, and there were so many options for ornamentation. And Danny worked well with our vendors because they all know him and love him. I'll say it again: when you go with Hummingbird, everything just works like it's supposed to.

You can already tell from photos but I promise your first visit in person will blow you away. Not only is it the prettiest and most intimate venue in Austin, Danny & his team have thought of everything. From the exceptional rental options, to a phenomenal list of preferred venues, to the overall flow of your event, we had the most perfect wedding ceremony and reception at the Hummingbird House. If you're looking for a venue where minimal decor is needed, you have multiple ceremony location choices and a STUNNING bridal suite, this is the place for you. There's ample parking for locals and so much shade. I had several friends ask if they could get married here during our rehearsal - its just that perfect. Plus, Danny is a delight!! 12/10 would recommend.
