We coordinated a wedding here this weekend, and we're so pleased with how it turned out. We set up 26 reception tables outside, and it was so pretty with a view of Lady Bird Lake and those majestic live oaks on the lawn. The ceremony was held inside, and we fit over 200 chairs in the upstairs banquet hall. We could not be happier with the on-site staff and how friendly and helpful they were. The American legion is a nonprofit, so this place is a bargain. It's also conveniently located close to downtown.

We had our wedding at the Charles Johnson House October of 2017 and couldn't be happier with our venue choice! We held the ceremony outside and due to a unexpected cold front had the ability to move our reception inside and made that decision on our wedding day. The central Austin location, non profit element and indoor/outdoor space made this the perfect location for my husband and I. We wouldn't of had our wedding anywhere else! We highly recommend!

I booked this venue for my wedding reception and it was perfect! Beautiful exterior with a central location for all of our guests. We had about 100 people in the upstairs ballroom and there was plenty of room for a big dance floor. There is a private dressing area for the bride and groom and a big kitchen for the caterers. When we first decided that we were going to be having a reception I searched the internet for what seemed like three weeks straight to find a venue that was not charging exorbitant prices just for the building. I almost gave up because there are almost none in Austin!!! Then I visted the Charles Johnson House and after our first meeting I felt like I could actually pull this off!!! So glad I found this gem.
