Questions

Wedding weekend FAQs

Can we hold the wedding, rehearsal or a party at the house?

No. Ember & Oak is a quiet home in a residential community: no parties or events, a maximum of 6 guests, and quiet hours from 10:00 PM – 8:00 AM. It's a place to stay, get ready and rest between the celebrations.

How far is the house from the wedding venues?

Most Granbury venues are a short drive, the historic square is about 10 minutes away and Glen Rose about 15 minutes. Times to country venues vary; check your route before the big day.

How early should we book for a wedding weekend?

Spring and fall Saturdays fill first. Check the calendar as soon as you have the date; there is a two-night minimum.

Can a larger wedding party split across two rentals?

The home sleeps 6. For a bigger group, book Ember & Oak for the bridal party and ask Jennifer & Joe for nearby recommendations for everyone else.
