  • Best Intimate Venue On The Northside

    •Verified review
    •Rebecca Pope•Dec 16

    The Lytle House is a fantastic wedding venue that I highly recommend. Their communication style is clear, timely, and helpful, making the planning process seamless. The quality of their work and overall value is superb - the indoor and outdoor spaces are well-appointed, functional, and incredibly photogenic. The venue lends itself perfectly to an outdoor ceremony and cocktails, with a cozy seated dinner and small dance area indoors. The space is also perfect for social and corporate gatherings. The amenities include room for a food truck, their photobooth trailer, and a rentable condo above the venue for an exciting and convenient experience. As a women and queer-owned business that prioritizes the local community (working with local vendors, supporting the arts etc), this venue is a favorite!

    The Lytle House was perfect for our wedding! We loved the look and feel of the space, especially the outdoor courtyard and all the natural backdrops and greenery. What really made this an easy decision for us was Robyn's approach to wedding planning. This is a small family business, and you only work with Robyn or Michelle--they both believe in flexible planning options and keeping wedding planning stress free. They made it easy to find the right vendors and stay within our budget.

  • Above expectations!

    We had our wedding this past Summer at The Lytle House. Everything we had planned was inspired by the beautiful space and it all exceeded our expectations, and was even more beautiful than we had imagined it to be. It was such a unique, intimate venue to celebrate with our loved ones. Robyn and Michelle were both so accommodating and held our hands through the whole process as we chose our vendors and everything beyond. I truly didn’t stress at all, which I feel must be quite rare for wedding planning. Our guests were in awe of the Lytle House and my sister in law, our photographer, is already eager to recommend the Lytle House to her friends and clients.

    We got married at The Lytle House in June 2024. We had a guest list of 75, and this was a the perfect intimate venue for us. Robyn and Michelle were wonderful to work with. They were quick to respond to questions and readily available for all our needs leading up to wedding day. They were able to accommodate special requests for lighting and decor. Our guests raved about the ambiance, and are still talking about all the cool features of the venue. The indoor/outdoor vibe of this venue is warm, inviting, and truly magical.
