When planning a wedding at Villa Antonia, couples are often captivated by the breathtaking hill country views, romantic courtyards, and open-air charm. But tucked beneath the main level is one of the venue’s most beloved, and beautifully unexpected, features: the Wine Cellar.
While some couples choose the Wine Cellar as a backup in case of inclement weather, many others make it their first choice for dining. And it’s easy to see why.
A Romantic, Air-Conditioned Retreat
The Wine Cellar offers a cool, comfortable space for your guests to dine in style, especially welcome during the warm Texas months. With climate-controlled air conditioning, stone walls, and intimate lighting, this space creates a refined and cozy atmosphere for your reception dinner. It’s ideal for couples who love a more moody, elegant vibe for their celebration.
Perfect Flow from Ceremony to Reception
Conveniently located just steps away from the Foyer Bar, the fountain, and the Butterfly Garden, the Wine Cellar allows for a seamless transition from cocktail hour to reception. Guests can sip a signature drink outside before moving indoors for dinner service.
Dine, Then Dance in the Chapel
One of the best features of using the Wine Cellar for dinner is the built-in event flow. After the ceremony, guests enjoy cocktail hour while exploring the property, then they enjoy their meal in an elegant, serene space, and move to the Chapel for dancing. This multi-location experience makes the evening feel layered and dynamic, with a natural rhythm to the celebration.
Not Just for Plan B, It’s a Hidden Gem
While many venues offer indoor options solely as a backup, the Wine Cellar at Villa Antonia is a gem in its own right. Whether you’re envisioning a summer Tuscan-inspired dinner, a cozy autumn gathering, or an elegant winter wedding, this space adapts beautifully to a variety of styles and seasons.
