Put Your Wedding Guests on The Island

Private resort villas in Lago Vista, minutes from The Laiken and the North Shore's wedding venues, with a private room-block code so every guest books their own stay at the wedding rate.

Getting married in Lago Vista or anywhere on the North Shore of Lake Travis? The Island on Lake Travis hosts weddings itself, and it is the closest thing the area has to a wedding hotel. Say “I do” on the resort grounds and your guests walk back to private villas, or stay here for a wedding at a nearby venue and share the pools, spa, restaurant and marina of a gated resort on its own peninsula.

North Shore Vacation Rentals manages dozens of villas at The Island, from studios for a couple to three-bedroom villas for a family. We already host wedding guests and wedding parties for the area’s venues, and we would love to host yours.

How the wedding room block works

  1. You ask for a code. Tell us the venue, the date and how many guests need a bed. We set up a private code just for your wedding (it cannot be guessed, so strangers cannot use it).
  2. You share it. Put the code and a link to this page on your wedding website or in your invitations.
  3. Guests book their own stay. Each guest picks a villa, chooses Rate: Wedding Block, types your code and books online at $50 off per bedroom for stays of two nights or more.
  4. No contract, no attrition. Unlike a hotel block, you never pay for rooms your guests do not book.

Why The Island works for a wedding weekend

  • One address for everyone. Guests find each other at the pool instead of driving between hotels.
  • Close to the venue, or at it. Married at The Island? Guests walk home. At The Laiken? About 15 minutes away.
  • A resort without a lobby. Pools, a spa, tennis, a restaurant and a marina on site.
  • Real kitchens. Families cook breakfast together the morning after instead of hunting for brunch for 40.

The wedding party

Above about eight people, two or three neighboring villas beat one big house: more bathrooms, more kitchen space and a quiet place for the early risers. Read our guide to hosting your wedding party at The Island, or build your group with the Group Stay planner.

Ceremonies and receptions at The Island are booked with the resort and held on the resort grounds. Our villas themselves are lodging only: no ceremonies, receptions or parties inside the rentals, and The Island’s resort rules and quiet hours apply to every guest.
