THE SHOOTS
The Venue
HIGHPOINTE ESTATE
Our content day will be held in Texas’ beautiful Hill Country at HighPointe Estate. Here's a little about their gorgeous venue:
Our indoor spaces feature chocolate-brown trusses, stunning chandeliers, and loads of natural light streaming through large doors and windows. Outdoors, you’ll discover comfortable porches, beautiful gardens with water features, and plenty of room for outdoor fun! For outdoor ceremonies, we feature gorgeous natural spaces around our beautiful estate…many of which overlook the San Gabriel River Valley.
Evoking an old country church with an updated and modern vibe, our Chapel is a perfect indoor ceremony venue featuring shiplap walls with arched trusses and windows. The Gathering Room, with its 35-foot ceiling, is designed to offer you dramatic space and tremendous flexibility for the layout of your wedding reception or event. Both spaces accommodate up to 300 guests, and can be elegantly “dressed up” or maintain their casual farmhouse style.
