A Hidden Gem for Couples Who Love Rustic Elegance
Tucked away in the heart of New Braunfels, Allen Farmhaus is the kind of wedding venue that makes you feel like you've stepped into a country dream—with just the right amount of modern charm. Whether you're planning a laid-back celebration or an elegant rustic affair, this family-owned venue offers the perfect blend of Texas Hill Country beauty and warm hospitality.
As wedding photographers specializing in New Braunfels weddings, we’ve captured some truly magical moments here. One of our favorite weddings at Allen Farmhaus was Janna & Jace’s—a day filled with love, golden light, and a whole lot of fun. If you’re considering this venue for your big day, here’s everything you need to know (with some pro tips sprinkled in!).
The Perfect Location: Secluded Yet Convenient
One of the best things about Allen Farmhaus is its location. It’s just a short drive from downtown New Braunfels, making it easy for guests to get to while still feeling like a private retreat. The venue sits on a beautiful stretch of land with open fields, big Texas skies, and a mix of old-world charm and modern touches. It’s the best of both worlds—rustic, but without sacrificing comfort.
For Janna & Jace, this location was perfect. With family coming in from different parts of Texas, they wanted a venue that felt intimate but wasn’t too far off the beaten path. Their guests loved the easy drive, and once they arrived, they were completely immersed in the relaxed countryside vibe.
Ceremony & Reception Spaces That Wow
The Open-Air Chapel: A Breathtaking Backdrop
The open-air chapel at Allen Farmhaus is one of its most unique features. Instead of traditional walls, this chapel has open wooden beams that frame the landscape beautifully, allowing natural light to flood in. It’s the perfect balance of outdoor charm with a structured ceremony setting.
Janna & Jace’s ceremony here was pure magic. As Janna walked down the aisle, golden hour light streamed through the chapel, creating a breathtaking glow. (Pro tip: If you’re getting married here, try to time your ceremony for that dreamy pre-sunset light!)
The Reception Barn: Rustic Meets Refined
The barn at Allen Farmhaus isn’t just any barn—it’s a beautifully designed space with reclaimed wood, high ceilings, and market lights strung throughout. It’s spacious enough to host a lively dance floor but still feels cozy and inviting.
Picture-Perfect Photography Spots
As photographers, one of the first things we notice at any venue is the natural lighting and variety of backdrops. Allen Farmhaus delivers in every way.
Golden Hour Magic
The open fields surrounding the venue provide the ultimate golden-hour glow. Some of our favorite portraits of Janna & Jace were taken here, just as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, dreamy light across the grass. If you love sunset photos, this venue is a dream come true.
Rustic & Vintage Charm
From the barn’s weathered wood to the charming swing hanging from an old oak tree, there are countless little details that make for stunning portraits. Janna’s bridal shots on the wooden swing turned out absolutely stunning—simple, elegant, and effortlessly romantic.
Fun & Playful Moments
Allen Farmhaus offers more than just classic beauty—it’s also a great place for playful, candid shots. The wide-open space allowed Jace and his groomsmen to run full speed at the camera for a hilarious action shot. And yes, we fully support the tradition of lifting the bride and spinning her around for those joyful, in-the-moment captures!
Guest Experience & Amenities
Weddings aren’t just about the couple—they’re also about creating an unforgettable experience for guests. Allen Farmhaus makes that easy.
Comfort & Flow
Guests can move seamlessly from the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception without feeling shuffled around. The getting-ready suites on-site allow for a relaxed morning, and the open layout means guests can enjoy the celebration without missing a moment.
Indoor-Outdoor Flexibility
While the venue shines in fair weather, they also have covered spaces to ensure the party goes on rain or shine. (Though let’s be honest—this is Texas, so having a rain plan is always a good idea!)
