Ceremony & Reception Spaces & Costs at The French Farmhouse
At The French Farmhouse, couples have access to multiple ceremony sites, including a woodland chapel, an 18-foot enclosed patio, and a covered turf area ideal for cocktail hour rain or shine. The venue also includes a porch overlooking the woods and an expansive indoor reception space adorned with curated antique details.
From pre-ceremony portraits to your last dance, you’ll have the entire property from 9 a.m. to midnight, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the day with your guests. Rehearsal access is also available the night before, if the space is open 100 days out.

Food & Beverage Costs
One of the standout features of The French Farmhouse is its vendor flexibility, which allows couples to bring in the caterer of their choice. This level of freedom can be a huge cost-saver—especially if you have a favorite local chef or family-style meal in mind—but it also means couples will need to coordinate more logistics themselves, including rentals, staffing, and clean-up.
Catering
The French Farmhouse does not require a preferred catering list, so you’re welcome to choose any licensed caterer. The pricing flyer doesn’t include sample menus or cost estimates, but based on average rates in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, you can expect:
- Buffet-style catering: around $75–$100 per guest
- Plated, full-service meals: $110–$150 per guest
- Add-ons like appetizers, dessert stations, or late-night snacks will increase costs
Keep in mind that many caterers do not include tableware, linens, or staffing in their base price—so be sure to ask what’s included and budget for any rentals or service staff you may need.
Bar Service
The alcohol policy is a hybrid: couples may purchase and provide their own alcohol, but all bartending must be handled by the venue’s exclusive partner: Professional Partiers.
- This allows couples to save on beverage markups by buying alcohol wholesale or at retail.
- Bartending staff, service ware (cups, ice, garnishes, etc.), and setup are typically covered in the bartending package, though you’ll want to confirm exactly what’s included.
- The bartending company may also set minimum hour requirements or charge additional fees for large guest counts or specialty cocktails.
How much could your total wedding cost be if you got married at the French Farmhouse?
Given the minimum requirements and regional averages, a full wedding at The French Farmhouse with 150 guests will likely start around $60,000. This estimate includes the venue fee and assumes a food and beverage spend of approximately $100 per guest, which is typical for the North Texas region.
When you factor in everything — from venue fees to vendor costs — Tulle Together’s Cost Forecast Tool projects that the total budget of a wedding at the French Farmhouse could land around $60,000, depending on your guest count (this estimates the spend based on 150 guests on a peak-season Saturday), design scope, and other vendor selections. This estimate factors in a range of typical wedding expenses beyond the venue & catering itself, helping couples get a realistic view of what their wedding might actually cost before making any commitments. Of course, someone could spend more or less than this (especially if you go with off-season pricing and less guests!) – but it’s an average estimate for what that total wedding cost could look like.
The Cost Forecast Tool is just one of Tulle Together’s budgeting resources. On the website, you’ll find a variety of budget tools designed to help couples plan out their total wedding costs before they book anything. Whether you’re estimating expenses, tracking your spending, or looking for real venue pricing, Tulle Together’s tools provide a transparent approach to wedding budgeting—so you can plan confidently and avoid unexpected surprises.

Final Thoughts
Couples love The French Farmhouse for its secluded countryside charm, flexible vendor policy, and thoughtfully designed spaces like the chapel-in-the-woods and custom farmhouse furnishings. While it’s more of a bring-your-own-vendor venue, its natural beauty and built-in character make it a favorite for couples who want a personalized wedding without starting completely from scratch.
Just be sure to get a clear breakdown of what’s included in each package—and budget for the “extras” like taxes, rentals, and gratuities. Touring the space and speaking with the team is the best way to determine if it’s the right fit for your wedding vision and budget.
