At the Diamond A Ranch, we know what it takes to host a wedding that’s both stunning and completely peaceful. Over the years, we’ve welcomed couples from across the DFW area (and around the world!) who are searching for more than just a beautiful ceremony spot. They’re dreaming of a place to slow down, soak in the moment, and turn their wedding into a full weekend retreat with the people they love most — exactly what the best wedding venues in Texas with lodging are made for.
As a luxury ranch wedding venue with accommodations onsite, we’ve seen firsthand how game-changing it can be to keep everything (and everyone) all in one place. From the rehearsal dinner to the last toast at brunch, our venue was designed to make each part of your celebration feel connected, personal, and effortlessly elegant.
Why Lodging Matters for your Texas Wedding
Gone are the days when weddings were just about “the big day.” More and more couples are embracing the idea of a full wedding weekend — one filled with quality time, meaningful connection, and moments that can’t be squeezed into a six-hour timeline. Choosing a wedding venue with lodging in Texas makes it easy to extend the celebration beyond the ceremony and reception into a days-long getaway with your loved ones.
There’s no need to coordinate carpools, book hotel blocks, or shuttle people back and forth. It’s one location for all your events, your closest people, and your best memories. You can kick off the weekend with a welcome dinner, wake up with your wedding party in the same space, and savor a morning-after brunch before sending everyone off with full hearts (and bellies!).
And if you’re dreaming of a Texas wedding venue with lodging that feels like a hidden retreat—and isn’t a chain hotel—you’re in for something special.
Let us introduce you to a place that truly has it all…
The Diamond A Ranch: The Best Texas Wedding Venue with Lodging
For couples dreaming of a full wedding weekend that feels immersive, luxurious, and completely stress-free, the Diamond A Ranch is the perfect place to say “I do.” With stylish onsite accommodations for 20 people and breathtaking views around every corner, it’s a one-of-a-kind option among wedding venues in Texas with lodging, turning your wedding into an unforgettable escape.
A True Retreat in the Texas Hill Country
Nestled on a secluded stretch of ranchland just outside of Weatherford, TX, Diamond A Ranch offers the kind of natural beauty that simply can’t be replicated. Picture rolling hills, wide-open skies, live oak trees, and sunsets that stretch for miles — it’s peaceful, private, and oh so charming.
Our ceremony locations are naturally stunning, from the ancient Live Oak Grove to the manicured Saloon Turf, which is green all year round. Whether you’re exchanging vows beneath the trees or celebrating inside our cathedral-inspired venue, expect a setting that is quintessentially Texas.
The Homestead Quarters: Stay in Style
Imagine waking up on your wedding day feeling calm, rested, and completely at ease. At Diamond A Ranch, you’re not just staying close to the venue. You’re on top of one of the highest hills in Hood County, surrounded by 2,000 acres of secluded Texas countryside. No neighbors. No nearby roads. Just wide-open skies, peaceful views, and the people you love most.
You’re just steps away from where you’ll say “I do.” That means no shuttles, no traffic, and no last-minute logistics to stress over. And with full weekend access to the venue, your décor and setup are already taken care of the day before. You can take your time getting ready, soak in the morning with your wedding party, and ease into the day.
That’s what you get with the Diamond A Ranch — one of the top wedding venues in Texas with lodging.
Our Homestead Quarters is a beautifully restored 1950s ranch home with 6,000 square feet of space and room to comfortably sleep up to 20 guests.

You’ll have everything you need to host a welcome party, rehearsal dinner, and farewell brunch without ever leaving the property.
