My daughter’s wedding is just around the corner, and I already feel so grateful we chose The Bowden as our venue. From the moment we toured the space, we were blown away by how stunning and well-maintained everything was. It’s elegant, timeless, and has the kind of atmosphere every parent hopes for when imagining their child’s big day.
The staff has been nothing but kind, helpful, and extremely organized throughout the planning process. It’s clear they care about making each wedding personal and stress-free. I’ve watched my daughter plan this day with so much excitement, and knowing it will take place at The Bowden gives us all peace of mind—and a lot of joy.
We can’t wait to celebrate in this beautiful space next month. Thank you to the entire team for helping us feel so taken care of already!
I’ll never forget the moment we toured The Bowden. As soon as we walked in, I saw my fiancée’s face completely light up — and I knew this was the place. The venue is absolutely stunning, and since that day, she hasn’t stopped raving about how smooth and stress-free the whole process has been. The staff has been professional, kind, and on top of everything. Seeing her so excited and at ease has made me even more confident that we made the right choice. We can't wait for our big day!
As the mother of the bride, I couldn't be more pleased with The Bowden so far. From our first tour to now, the staff has been incredibly kind, professional, and responsive. They’ve answered every question we’ve had (and there have been many!) with patience and clarity. The venue itself is absolutely stunning—elegant, clean, and welcoming. We’re so excited for my daughter’s wedding in May 2025 and feel very confident that she’s in excellent hands. Highly recommend!
We are getting married at The Bowden in Keller on May 25, 2025, and so far, the experience has been absolutely incredible!

My experience at the Bowden as a guest was amazing! The venue was beautiful and professional! I would definitely recommend to others.
The Bowden has been great for our wedding venue! Love the look and the large space. Speakers built into the chapel is a game changer for coordinating with DJ. Staff have all been super nice too. We’re excited to get married here :)

I booked my wedding with The Bowden in December, and although the event has not yet taken place, my experience thus far has been great. Their pricing is competitive for the services they provided . Every staff member I have interacted with has been courteous and helpful, Additionally the quality of the food is very good. I am confident I made the right decision choosing this venue.
The Bowden is a stunningly beautiful venue. Phoebe and Kelly have been a dream to work with while planning my fiancé and I’s wedding. They are so quick to respond and are eager to help. I am so excited for our big day!

The grand ballroom, stunning chandeliers, and beautiful chapel create a breathtaking atmosphere. The staff has been incredibly helpful and accommodating, ensuring that every detail is taken care of. If you’re looking for elegance, class, and top-notch service, The Bowden is the place to go!
“My daughter is getting married here in a few weeks and we are very excited. When we toured the venue over the summer, we loved how beautiful it was even without any decorations.”
The communication with the venue has been great for the bride. Kelly, Shelly, and Phoebe have been wonderful ladies for her to work with. We are excited for a beautiful wedding
We are getting married here in a few months and the venue has been pretty easy to work with so far. We are excited to have the best wedding at The Bowden
The Bowden has been a great experience so far. The venue is naturally gorgeous and the staff are fantastic!
We are so excited to get married here in a few months. From the start the staff has been really detail- oriented, helpful, and attentive. Any question we’ve had, they have fully answered and we couldn’t be happier with our choice in venue.

Very great venue. Highly recommended. Great amenities
Very great venue. Highly recommended
Great looking venue for our daughter's wedding. Its nice to have the offered amenities and catering all at one location. The food from the catering team looks great too. Excited to attend later this year!
We will be attending our daughter's wedding at this venue later this year and we are very excited. The venue looks beautiful and from what I hear, the staff is extremely helpful and accommodating.
My god son is having a wedding here in December and he has been telling me his experience with The Bowden. He has given them nothing but good praise. He is very particular with his plans and The Bowden has done nothing but help along the way. I am sure the wedding will turn out great for him and his fiancé.
Working with The Bowden has been a nice experience. The venue is well kept with rules set in place to keep up that reputation. The Bowden continuously finds paths to help their customers make a wedding more affordable such as attending wedding conferences and holding Wedding vendor meet and greet while offering discounts. Kelly and Phoebe are both nice to work with and help accommodate our plans no matter how complex it may have gotten.
We’ve booked the Bowden for our December wedding and we’re so excited to be working with the team! The venue is gorgeous with huge glass windows and plenty of natural light which would be perfect for photos. Both Kelly and Phoebe have been helping us throughout the year providing us with answers to all our questions (we had a lot!), accommodating our vision for the day and also offering discounts wherever possible. Can’t wait for wedding day to watch all this planning come to life!
The Bowden was perfect! Truly everything you could ever want with great staff, yummy food and drinks, and a beautiful & safe venue!
So excited to watch my best friends wedding dreams come true at The Bowden. She has talked on and on about how stunning the venue is and how wonderful staff has been to accommodate to her every need!
Great spot for a wedding in north Texas, the venue has everything you need and easy to work with from start to finish!
When I first walked into The Bowden, I immediately knew that this was going to be my dream venue. From the moment I arrived for my tour the staff was incredibly inviting and informative. Every day leading up to my wedding day the staff could not have done anything better to help make my dream day come true. I cannot say enough good things about how beautiful the venue is, how incredible the staff is, and how amazing a wedding day that me and my now husband had because of the work of everyone involved. I would recommend this venue to anyone and anybody and can't thank The Bowden and its staff enough.
We have loved working with the Bowden. The venue is beautiful and all of their staff is so helpful and patient with all the questions we have had.
Shelly was great to work with on the front end to book the venue. We were on a time crunch and she was very helpful in getting us booked. The location is great to avoid the far drive for other venue options up near Little Elm. Having the chapel and reception space in the same area with plenty of parking was a huge plus. Personally, we're big fans of natural lighting so that is a huge plus with the Bowden.
Phoebe (catering services manager) has been great to work with - very responsive and proactive. There are a ton of functional items included with the rental that we intend to use: Very broad lighting customization, projectors in the reception space, TVs in the cocktail area, audio built in to the chapel, etc! It'sworth a tour if you're in the market for your wedding. We'll be having ours in July!
My daughter immediately fell in love with the Bowden during our first tour there. We both loved the simple yet stunning feel of the chapel. In addition we loved the different features of the bridal suite. Shelly Kitchens and Phoebe Williams have been so wonderful to work with us in the planning process. We are so excited to host our daughter and future son-in-laws wedding their this coming December.
The Bowden was one of the first venues that I looked at because of its ability to provide both a stunning chapel as well as elegant ballroom. I immediately fell in love with the chapel. It was one of the few affordable venues in DFW that had this combo to target the vision I had for my wedding day. It has been such a wonderful experience working with Phoebe their catering services manager and the team at the Bowden. They have been so helpful to work with me and my budget in the planning process to help bring my wedding day vision to life. My fiance' and I are so excited to have our wedding at the Bowden come December!
The Bowden has been great to work with. The venue is beautiful and the staff is very professional!
All staff that facilitated the use of The Bowden for our campus' graduation ceremony were professional, extremely communicative, and great at anticipating our needs. We hope to use them again.
Hands down the best decision was to have our wedding here. They are a well-oiled machine and I felt at ease the entire day. Knowing they had everything handled, made my nerves during the day minimal!
I got married here 9/2023 and it was nothing short of spectacular!! The Bowden is absolutely beautiful and the staff was great to work with. Also so many things are in-house that it takes a lot of stress away from the planning side. Highly recommend!
We had a great experience at the Bowden! The catering and set up team did a fabulous job setting up for a dance team and parents totaling almost 150 people. We appreciated how organized everything was beforehand and at the event itself, including working with our vendors, decor and AV set up.
The Bowden was the perfect location for our wedding! All the staff was so enjoyable and easy to work with. My now husband and I live out of state (I am originally from the area with family still local) and they were amazing about accommodating us having to travel in for meetings or communicating via email/phone. Special shout out to Heather as she was always so prompt with getting back to me on any questions I had.
My daughters wedding was completely stress free thanks to amazing staff could not have been more accommodating from start of planning till finish wonderful experience
My daughter got married here in December. Wow! Everything was impeccable! The staff went over and above. The day was perfect for my daughter and son-in-law. The Chapel at sunset hit her veil and it just sparkled. With the windows in the chapel it felt like you were outside. The reception was so spacious, fun and beautiful. The elegant chandeliers in the ballroom and the beautiful fountain in the back transport you to another place. The food was out of this world. Our guests said it was the best wedding food they had eaten. I can't say enough amazing things from sales, detailing, venue coordinators and service staff. The Bowden is a gem in such a convenient location.
Beautiful wedding venue!
The bride and groom were so beautiful in the Holly Chapel and the ballrooms were set to perfection. My husband and I attended a wedding in December, every detail was perfect.
The food and staff were fantastic!
Love The Bowden !!!
Food and service is five ⭐️
Best venue in North Texas!
Service and food was impeccable!
Amazing event. It was well run and beautiful. Food was good too!
I attended a wedding here last month and the chapel was beautiful especially at sunset. The cocktail hour and reception were a lot of fun and the service was amazing. They were so friendly and the food was great too!
I attended a wedding here and it is one of the most beautiful ceremony sites as well as ballrooms, I have ever been to! Their servers were so nice and efficient and the food was delicious! I wanted to get married again just so I could have it here!
The Bowden was the perfect place for us to get married! The whole space is breath taking but the attention to detail throughout the property is incredible. From the moment we signed to the week of the wedding, Heather was with us and answered all of my questions with kindness and a genuine care. The food was delicious and the banquet team was fun and welcoming on the day of. I loved my experience with The Bowden and our guests had the absolute best time. Thank You Heather and the rest of The Bowden team!
The Bowden was the perfect venue for my July wedding. When looking for venues, we wanted something that would accommodate 250+ guests and would allow everything to be indoors. The Bowden was beautiful and the space was exactly what we needed. Every staff member we communicated with was friendly, professional, and timely. The food catered through the bowden was also delicious and we got lots of compliments about it. At my wedding, my grandma had an accident and fell and the bowden staff went above and beyond to help her and put my family at ease. I can’t recommend this venue enough!
The Bowden is in a league of its own. The natural lighting and sheer beauty of the venue provide a backdrop for a stunning, show-stopping wedding; a few fresh flowers is all you need. There is ample parking, the groom and bridal suites are well appointed, and the reception area faces a well-manicured, beautiful setting. The menu selection is loaded with options and is beyond standard banquet fare. The event staff is approachable and on top of all correspondence; they operate seamlessly, are attentive to details, and are just good at what they do. Our wedding experience with The Bowden was phenomenal.
The Bowden was wonderful and so beautiful! The people were so friendly and helpful from our first tour until we left the venue the night after the wedding. They were so great, so helpful and so accommodating! We were extremely pleased with our experience and our family gives them the best of the best reviews and will recommend them any chance we get.
Our experience without a doubt was better than we could imagine. Everyone at The Bowden helped with professionalism and kindness.
Our wedding at the Bowden was a memorable occasion! The venue is absolutely beautiful and the chef’s food is very delicious! We worked with some great people along our planing process. It is a good venue to consider for any bride looking to have a classic and beautiful wedding!
My husband and I heard of The Bowden through a friend and we immediately went to go tour the venue. We loved the beautiful chapel with large windows allowing natural sunlight for our ceremony, the dark wooden beams above us, and the ample amount of space for our guests. The reception hall is next door to the chapel which was very convenient!
Indian weddings require coordination, teamwork, professionalism, and most importantly, good timing. The Bowden, the employees, and the lovely day of coordinators worked so hard to ensure our day was perfect. Our family and friends enjoyed the tasty food, great drinks, and dancing the night away!
We would recommend this venue to our family and friends! Beautiful venue:)
