Texas is the second largest state in the continental US and is famous for doing things on a grand scale. So, if you are planning for a spectacular wedding, you would not be wrong to plan your nuptials in the Lone Star State. Texas maintains a 72-hour waiting period after the license is issued before a ceremony can take place, but it can be waived if a partner is serving in the forces or when a pre-marital education class has been completed. Dripping Springs is considered the Wedding Capital of Texas, but do not be limited by this destination and explore your options. The state offers so many options to help you pick that perfect wedding venue - from sprawling luxury villas for elegant weddings and 100-ac (40.47 ha) ranches for rustic-chic events. Continue reading to learn more about the top Airbnb wedding venues in Texas, USA, when planning your big day.
