There are no words to describe how Arrowwood and Brie made my wedding dreams come true on such a magical level. For context, my dream has always been a very nature centered, intimate, informal, romantic wedding in the winter. So if that’s not your dream, I understand. But from the get, even during wedding chaos and curveballs- even DROPPED balls- Brie held my wedding together with her bare hands to make sure I had the best day of my entire life. She is just such a badass and caring and strong and organized and sure footed woman. My groomsmen were stupid and forgot they had to setup? She got did setup without asking until I screamed at the men to get down there. I was running late? She told me to breathe and slow down. I needed my vape during rehersal? She held it IN HER HAND for when I needed it. People left my wedding early cuz they thought it was over? She held that together and told me to do whatever I wanted. Boys got too drunk? Whatever, it’s my wedding, do whatever activities I want to. She kept me so centered and held it down. The grounds are beautiful, the amenities are adorable, the bridal suite overnight was perfect (well the TV was missing remotes but we made it work) and I will always always cherish my wedding day at Arrowwood. If you want a magical, nature centered wedding, please do yourself a favor and choose Arrowwood!! Even the cleaning lady was so sweet and I’m so sad I forgot her name!!!! ️️️

Hera's Haven is such a beautiful venue with a wonderful staff and gorgeous spaces to hold your events. As a wedding planner, I can tell you that the wedding day is always stressful. No matter how organized you are, how big of a team you have, how supportive the people around you are, something can always go wrong. When this happens it's difficult to keep from panicking, but Lauren swooped in and helped me level everything out, knocking my stress level in half. She was so helpful, supportive, and just an all-around delight. I've recommended this wonderful venue to all my brides, my friends, my family, and even strangers in wedding Facebook groups. Bonus for any Greek mythology buffs - The chandeliers are shaped like pomegranates and for our Greek Mythology themed wedding they were PERFECT.

  • No venue-provided food services
We have only positive things to say about the Pines of Alvarado. There was ample parking. With the gazebo, two pergolas and multiple blooming plants, the approach to the building was very attractive. It was 99 degrees when we arrived at the venue, but the room was cool and comfortable. The catering kitchen worked well (our caterer loved it) and included a freezer, which was really nice since we served ice cream for our groom's treat. The kitchen also worked very well as our bar, with a convenient place to put a large frozen margarita machine. We loved having the ability to provide our own alcohol and appreciated the Pines providing the (required) security officers. We did put one row of pipe and drape up so bar goers didn't see the catering work going on behind the drape. The room was large enough to seat 130 guests for a dinner buffet - with adequate space to move about. There was also room for multiple "specialty" tables and a dance floor. There are giant barn doors that were perfect for entrance of the wedding party, as well as for the sparkler send off. A large window at the far end of the building let in ample natural lighting. The building was spotless every time we were there and they had ample tables, chairs, and cloths to meet our needs. The building is rustic in design, but became really pretty with minimal decorations - especially once the strings lights were turned on. Kylie was great to work with. She was flexible, responsive and attentive. Her knowledge and suggestions (when solicited) were invaluable. We are so glad we found the Pines of Alvarado. It was definitely worth the short drive from the metroplex.

Melanie & Miranda were an awesome team! They answered all our questions & gave suggestions to help us fulfill our dream vision. They were so patient & kind when my daughter had trouble making up her mind. They kept at it until she was satisfied. They really worked hard to help us stay in budget while getting the look we were going for. The buffet food was delicious and moist! Not easy for a buffet! The cake from Jenny Lane exceeded our hopes & expectations. We sent a photo and Nabil did an even better job! The flowers were great & the moon gate was beautiful! It was bigger & grander than we expected. The champagne tree was a big hit with everyone! It was such a pretty sight to see as entering the outdoor ceremony space!

My wedding was 9.27.2024 . It was amazing! The venue is beautiful, it’s so different from any wedding I’ve ever been to. Everyone loved how unique it is and the owners went above and beyond for us. They were truly wonderful. They literally built anything I wanted for the ceremony, they attended to the children while they made s’mores, they really went above and beyond. Pictures don’t do this place justice it’s absolutely beautiful!

We toured about 6 other venues around DFW before we visited the Pearl. My husband visited the Pearl at their open house in January 2022 while I was on a work trip and he knew this place was something special. We made an appointment with Connie and Barry for a few days later to go together and as we walked through the venue, we couldn't imagine any place else we wanted our wedding. Barry gave us the best venue tour we had been on and asked us questions about how we wanted our wedding to look to better help us see how our day would be. Throughout the planning process, I probably emailed Connie a dozen times and she was always so quick and happy to help with any suggestions or questions I had. They do a great job of thinking of all the details you need. On our wedding day on March 18, 2023, we couldn't have had a more magical and perfect day. All of our friends and family thought the venue and the wedding were amazing. I can't recommend the Pearl enough and highly encourage you to attend their open house if able or if not then book a tour as soon as you read the review.
