Mayfield Park Elopement

Elope Among Austin’s Most Charming Gardens

If you’re dreaming of a romantic garden wedding without the stress of a traditional ceremony, Mayfield Park is one of Austin’s best-kept secrets. Tucked away near Lake Austin, this historic park is known for its winding garden paths, towering trees, colorful flowers, tranquil ponds, and its famous free-roaming peacocks. 

Whether you’re planning a private ceremony for just the two of you or celebrating with a handful of your closest loved ones, Mayfield Park offers a peaceful setting that feels miles away from the city while remaining just minutes from downtown Austin.

A little preparation goes a long way. Here are a few tips for making the most of your wedding day: 

  • Weekday mornings often provide the most privacy. 

  • Spring and fall offer especially beautiful gardens and comfortable weather. 

  • Comfortable shoes are recommended for walking the garden paths. 

  • The peacocks are part of the park’s charm, but they’re wild animals and may wander into your photos – or become an unexpected highlight! 

We’ll help you create a timeline that maximizes the best lighting and minimizes crowds for a relaxed, enjoyable experience.
