A DESTINATION WEDDING, TEXAS STYLE
Your people are traveling for you. We make the rest easy.
When your guests are coming in from Dallas, Tyler, Oklahoma or farther, the venue has to do more than look beautiful. It has to be simple to reach, comfortable in any weather and unhurried once everyone arrives. That is what our family built on twenty acres in Celeste, Texas.
You get the whole property with one wedding a day, a 12-hour rental on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and a team that stays with you from your first tour to your final send-off.

“We wanted a place that felt like a 'peaceful retreat' for our guests, and we couldn't have picked a better place- you will fall in love the minute you arrive. The venue is easy to locate and breathtakingly scenic.”

“As the mother of the bride, I got to truly enjoy the day. Our wedding coordinator, Amber, set up the entire reception (and the staff cleaned up at the end). I shared a few ideas and they handled everything.”
MELISSA EWING · GOOGLE REVIEW
★★★★★
“Having both indoor and outdoor ceremony options was incredibly important to us given Dallas weather, and D&G delivers beautifully on both. … From start to finish, they made every decision feel easy and stress-free.”
