“We couldn’t be happier with the Chapel at Palacios! We had already looked at several venues before we discovered this one. Upon arrival, we met Audra. She was absolutely wonderful with the touring and booking process. She worked with us and kept us within our budget. She made us feel like we were her only clients. She alleviated all of our concerns and fears with planning our wedding. Once we booked our date we were paired with the amazing Payton who is our venue coordinator. She made everything so easy, from planning seating charts to meals and everything in between. She is calm and laid back making everything such a breeze. We are absolutely in love with this venue. The Chapel at Palacios is like a little Italian destination wedding in Texas. The pictures are going to be a dream, who would think our wedding is taking place in Texas and not somewhere in Europe!”
