The Lone Star Mansion does not rent out rooms to our brides/grooms or guests, but we are more than happy to refer you to some nearby hotels. Some of these hotels offer a shuttle service to ensure that your guests can get to the Lone Star Mansion safely and on time. 

Our team has multiple options to move your wedding indoors to keep you and your guests dry. All of our weddings are planned with a contingency plan for this purpose, to make sure that your special day has no unnecessary headaches. 

Yes, they are! The Lone Star Mansion team understands that pets are family, and as such, are more than welcome to be a part of your big day. However, we do have breed and size restrictions for safety purposes, and they will not be allowed to be inside any of the buildings. For more information, reach out to our team!

Never! The estate is reserved for you. No one is allowed on the property the day of your wedding except for staff, your guests, your vendors, and of course, you!
