Yes if it were graded more evenly. Keep it green however.

We considered having the ceremony on the lawn but the propane tank is not nice to look at and the hill slopes too much. We considered setting up some games over there, too, but the slope is tough for that. All that said, I think there's plenty of space for people without it being totally useable.

We loved having this area for large family photos at our wedding. The natural area combined with the "parkitecture" of the building gave us the feeling that we were in a park and not a wedding venue.

The only addition I could see would be a bench under the tree. It is perfect as is.

Depends on execution. I personally liked having a yard area for pictures that did not include other furniture or deck, etc.

Would a dedicated "Green Room" where a bride or groom could get dressed and prepped or other "back of house" area improve the function of the Zilker Clubhouse as an event venue? Please slide the response to how strongly you feel.

If you want an expensive, perfect place for a wedding that has a dedicated green room there are dozens of expensive options for you in this city. The clubhouse was a uniquely Austin experience that doesn’t have all the fancy bells and whistles and that’s exactly why we liked it and why it should be left as is.

Probably a good idea. Maybe it could be added or built separately so as not to disrupt the existing large and historic spaces.

Updated bathrooms would be nice.

Even though we live nearby we rented an Airbnb to get ready in. This cost an additional $600 because of the 2 night minimum. We did use the the rental for other things, but a bridal ready space would have been worth paying extra at the venue. Also, getting to the venue dressed with nobody seeing you but feeling relaxed is basically impossible.

I have only used the venue for company parties, but this green room would still help to serve as a place to put belongings/coats/etc.

The Clubhouse is a historic facility and therefore is not air conditioned in the Main Hall. Based on your experience in the space, please position the slider to identify how strongly you feel between these two options.

There is a grassy lawn on the north side of the building. Would improvements to this lawn area enhance future experiences at this site?

When considering the kitchen area, what is the most critical feature that could be improved?
I think more prep space is needed. It feels and looks very cold and dirty now so new flooring would help.

An exterior entrance would be helpful for loading materials & removing trash
Reply2 Agree4 years ago
Larger refrigerator would be nice.

More counter tops to cut/prepare things

It needs a more efficient stove
