COUPLES ARE ASKING: We've got answers

What's included when we book The Laiken, and what will we still need to pay for separately?

The Laiken in Lago Vista, Texas, is an all-inclusive venue, so your rental covers planning services, your ceremony and reception spaces, a backup plan for bad weather, primary and secondary wedding suites, and a one-hour rehearsal. Tables, chairs, linens, cocktail tables and display easels are included, along with setup and teardown of your floor plan. What you'll add: a catering package, a beverage package and vendor services (think florals, photography and a DJ), plus a 22% service charge, sales tax and a refundable rental deposit.

Can we have both our ceremony and reception at The Laiken, or will guests need to travel between them?

Yes, it all happens on one lakeside property. The Laiken has two venues, Laurelwood and Lantana Lookout, and each pairs an outdoor ceremony with an indoor reception for up to 250 guests. At Laurelwood, you'll walk the aisle with Lake Travis behind you, then move into a ballroom with floor-to-ceiling windows. At Lantana Lookout, the lake-view ceremony terrace doubles as your cocktail space and leads straight into a ballroom with exposed beams and lake views.

If we already have vendors we love, can we bring them to The Laiken or do we have to use yours?

You'll use The Laiken's in-house team for catering and bar service, and no outside alcohol is allowed on the property. For everything else, you can bring your own vendors, as long as each one provides a signed indemnification agreement and a certificate of insurance before your wedding. Just know that every date at The Laiken requires a minimum vendor services purchase through Walters, which can cover florals, photography, DJ services, cakes and more.

What should we realistically expect to spend on a wedding at The Laiken, and is there a minimum?

At The Laiken in Lago Vista, Texas, venue rental runs $8,000 Monday–Thursday, $9,000 Sunday, $10,500 Friday and $15,500 Saturday. From there, you'll build your package: catering runs $33–$67 per person, beverage service $24–$52 per person, and vendor services $5,500–$13,900. Every date requires a vendor services minimum, and a 22% service charge, sales tax and a refundable rental deposit are added on top. Weekday and Sunday dates are the easiest way to save, and it's worth asking about seasonal savings, too.

Where would our out-of-town guests stay near The Laiken, and can you help with a room block?

Your crew can stay right on site. The Laiken has private Lakeside Villas, with Lake Travis views, and Coveside Villas, tucked toward a quiet cove. Each villa has four suites, and each suite has a king bed, a full bathroom and a private outdoor living area for two, so one villa sleeps 8. Accommodations package pricing is available, and a Walters representative can walk you through options for your wedding party and guests.

What makes The Laiken different from the other venues near it?

The Laiken pairs an all-inclusive wedding with on-site villas, all on a clifftop on the north shore of Lake Travis in Lago Vista, Texas. Planning services, wedding suites, your rehearsal and a weather backup plan are built in, and catering, bar and vendor packages come from one team under one contract. You can choose between two venues, Laurelwood and Lantana Lookout, each with a lake-view outdoor ceremony and an indoor ballroom for up to 250 guests. You're just over an hour from downtown Austin and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.
