Weddings conjure images of blissful romance and a warm atmosphere where friends and family mingle effortlessly. All too often, though, they are overwhelming for the bride and groom and challenging to coordinate once the extended family make their way to town. Lajitas, The Ultimate Hideout a is wedding retreat drawn out of a fairy tale�a setting of unmatched beauty on the banks of the Rio Grande, an on-site wedding coordinator to ensure a well-planned event, and a perfect venue for every wedding theme�classic elegance; old-fashioned Western with a Chuckwagon barbeque, or outdoors among the West Texas stars.

From the wedding garden with a gazebo and beautiful grass lawns adjacent to the swimming pool at Maverick Ranch to the ranch-style Lajitas Pavilion to the spacious Honeymoon Casitas equipped with kitchens and private porches, Lajitas offers complete amenities for a wedding away. Exquisitely remote, Lajitas provides catering, pastry design, floral arrangement, accommodations, entertainment, and event coordination. Photographers and officiants may also be arranged. Lajitas offers several packages for small and large weddings alike, including The Lajitas Wedding Spectacular; Big Bend Bash; The Ultimate Wedding; and The Vow Renewal Package.

Situated remotely between Big Bend National Park and Big Bend State Park, Lajitas offers service on a fleet of Lear jets, seating six passengers each, for travel from all major cities in Texas in just about one hour. The wedding festivities begin on the runway as the wedding party is whisked away by our luxurious jets, which land just five miles from town.

Guests may do as much or as little as they choose during their stay at our 25,000-acre estate and the customary wedding events may be planned with ease through our wedding coordinator. Tee times on the Ambush�our world-class, 18-hole golf course�may be scheduled for the fathers and the groomsmen, while the bridesmaids� brunch may be enjoyed on the patio of the Candelilla Caf� overlooking the golf course. The bridal party may retreat to the Agavita Spa for facials and massages the day of the wedding, while the mothers may shop along the boardwalk for a moment of peace. The gourmet Ocotillo with a lookout bar and wine cellar is an ideal site for a rehearsal dinner or cocktail party.
