We got married here and can't say enough good things about this venue. Our planner, Lynda, was AMAZING. She truly cared about us and our wedding day and kept in touch throughout the entire planning process and the day-of. She was instrumental in making sure everything went smoothly. The venue was beautiful, the house is wonderful, and all of the vendors were top notch. Our guests had an amazing time and our day was so special. We would completely recommend this place!

*The Most Honest Review You’ll Read*

I would like to preface & say that my wedding day was amazing. The best day I could have asked for. This venue is perfect if you want something intimate for a good price. Catering was awesome & Lynda our planner made the experience so good for us. She communicated well, laid out all our options, and made sure we were happy with our choices. She is amazing, I loved working with her.
Make sure you keep an eye on what you are being charged, we got charged for 16 linens even though we only had 12 tables…still waiting on Bobby (owner) to explain that one.

The day was perfect, but if I could change anything or go back, I would NOT rent the lodge.
We were charged $2000 to use the lodge the night before our wedding, and for $2000 we were expecting much more.

Some of the rooms have a musty smell, we found mouse droppings in one of the closets, and the shutters in the honeymoon suite were too small for the windows, so there is that uneasy feeling of people watching you through them.
Light switches don’t work, the Keurig in the groom's suite was disgusting, extra towels for the pool? Lol, forget about it!
Did you forget something like your blow dryer, body wash, or shampoo? You’re out of luck, there is an HEB down the street. This place could have potential, but you can easily see that the owner wanted to go as cheap as possible. Again, for the price that is not okay. It’s a rip off.

$2000 is a lot of money to spend on ONE night, especially on a place that is not worth that much money. My family was so confused as to why this was never brought up in any of the other reviews, had I known I would not have rented it. Don’t spend your hard-earned money on this place when there are better options. Airbnb has so many options that are WAY cheaper & offer a lot more.

If you were planning on renting for the purpose of having your rehearsal or welcome dinner, don’t. Bobby rolled around the whole night watching us. Again, I didn’t pay $2000 to have the owner walk around and check on us. Huge invasion of privacy especially since it was in the home we rented.

All in all, the wedding was amazing. I loved working with Lynda & the other vendors, but it’s so clear that the owner is after your money and doesn’t care about the couples. I hope this helps somebody because I wish I would have had a review like this to ultimately help with my choice.

Where do we even begin? Our experience with Memory Lane Ranch and Lodge was absolutely incredible! From the moment we started planning, Bobby, the owner, was fantastic. He truly helped us bring our vision to life and went above and beyond to ensure our night was nothing short of magical. His recommendations—like the Beer Burros—were spot on and added such a unique touch to our celebration.
The venue itself is simply STUNNING. You can tell Bobby has poured so much love into every detail of the property and its rental items. The layout is perfect—it’s close enough that guests aren’t trekking across endless fields, but the separate spaces create a lovely flow from the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception.
One of the best decisions we made was renting the on-site lodging. It was so spacious and made getting ready with our bridesmaids and moms (9 of us total!) an absolute breeze. Hair and makeup were seamless, and the house never felt cramped—just a fun, relaxed atmosphere before the big day.
Their all-inclusive package was another game-changer. It took so much stress off my plate as a busy bride, and the optional upgrades let us tailor the experience to fit exactly what we envisioned.
We’re beyond grateful for Bobby and the entire Memory Lane team. If you’re looking for a venue that’s beautiful, thoughtfully designed, and comes with outstanding service, this is the one!

My husband and I got married here in November of 2020, and from start, to finish it was the best experience I could have ever asked for. The staff was so much more than helpful. This was my one-stop-shop. I got almost everything I needed for the wedding once I stepped in those doors. Without it costing me my whole life's savings.
The Lodging was impeccable! it was so perfect for us! We even made the decision to stay the night before the wedding (Just us girls) and it was like being in a fairy tale cabin!
Then after all this being perfection the actual wedding happened and let me just say it was FLAWLESS!!! I never felt stress or pressure about one single thing! The venue is BREATHTAKING and I cannot recommend this place enough. I would redo this all over again a million times!

Hi! I got married here over the weekend and it was AMAZING. Lynda was our coordinator and she is truly the best. She made sure everything was perfect and ran smoothly the day of. Bobby was great as well and made sure everything was set up properly. We did the all inclusive package + rented the lodge for the night before the wedding and I could not recommended it enough. There is NO WAY I couldn’t planned everything myself and coordinated all my own vendors. The food was amazing and the guests LOVED it. The tomahawk steak was probably the best we’ve ever had. I could not express enough how much I loved this place, the staff and vendors and they made our special day perfect.

We recently celebrated our wedding at Memory Lane, and it was a truly memorable experience! A huge part of that success was thanks to Lynda, our wedding planner. She was an absolute 1000/10—a true godsend on our wedding day. From our first visit to the venue, Lynda gave us the peace of mind we needed, working closely with me throughout the planning process and always being available via text for any questions or recommendations. Her dedication and expertise really made the day go smoothly.

The catering was another highlight—10/10! Our guests are still raving about the delicious BBQ from Thorndale Meat Market, and we can’t wait to go back for more!

However, we did have some issues with the additional lodging we booked for $2,000. Unfortunately, the lodge left much to be desired. The water had a strong sulfur smell, making showers quite unpleasant, and the honeymoon suite had a scorpion in the shower, with very few amenities provided—no extra towels or toiletries.

On the bright side, the venue itself is stunning, and the day could not have gone better. Lynda truly brought our vision to life! Just a note: the owner, Bobby, does live on the property and tends to be present during ceremonies and receptions. It didn’t bother us, but it’s worth mentioning for those who prefer more privacy.

Overall, we had a fantastic day at Memory Lane, with great support from Lynda and delicious food. Just be cautious with the lodging options!

I knew in February of 2021 when one my best friends got married at Memory Lane, that I would one day too. Well, that day was June 13th, when I had my dream wedding at this charming venue. Bobby, the owner, is fantastic, and Lynda, the wedding coordinator, is simply amazing! Lynda was incredibly easy to communicate with and immediately clicked with my family as if she’d known them forever. She truly went above and beyond for us. Corey, the DJ from the venue, was also fantastic! He was so easy to work with, listens to what you want and played some fantastic music. We opted for the venue’s bar service, which was excellent as well! I can’t recommend this venue enough!
