Why Serana

More than a place for the ceremony.

A wedding at Serana unfolds over the full weekend. Your closest people stay on the property, meals become part of the celebration, and the spaces in between give everyone time to settle in and be together.

01

The whole weekend, in one place

Host the welcome dinner, ceremony, reception, and morning after without moving guests between hotels and venues.

02

Your closest people stay with you

Nine private cabins give up to 18 guests a place on the property, while celebrations can include up to 30.

03

The setting does not need much added to it

Oak trees, open prairie, quiet paths, and thoughtful architecture create a natural foundation for the weekend.

04

You can make it your own

Bring the planner and vendors who understand your vision, without being tied to a required catering, bar, or décor package.

Location

Where Serana is.

Set in Central Texas near Paige, Serana feels removed from ordinary pace while staying reachable for a hosted weekend.

40 min

from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport

45 min

from Austin

1.5 hr

from Houston and San Antonio

3 hr

from Dallas

Close enough for easy arrivals, private enough to feel like a retreat.

Drive times are approximate and can shift with traffic, but the location is intentionally practical for Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas guests.

Beyond the wedding

A place to stay awhile.

The spaces at Serana are meant to be enjoyed throughout the weekend, from coffee in the lodge and walks on the land to afternoons by the pool and time in the sauna.

  1. Arrival

    Check in and settle on property

    Guests arrive, settle into lodging, and begin the weekend without leaving the property between moments.

  2. Morning

    Coffee, movement, and slow preparation

    Wedding-day hospitality can begin with coffee, movement, sauna, cold plunge, pool time, or quiet preparation before the ceremony pace begins.

  3. Celebration

    Nature, vows, and a private reception

    The ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty, and guest transitions all stay within the same private 53 acres.

  4. Send-off

    A slow departure

    The weekend can close with one more morning on property instead of a scattered hotel checkout.
