Luxury Wedding Planner in Irving and Las Colinas
Who plans luxury weddings in Irving and Las Colinas, and what the venues there publish.
Who plans luxury weddings in Irving and Las Colinas? Poppy Planning does: Emmy Byers founded the Dallas studio, and Irving sits between Dallas and the airport. Hackberry Creek Country Club lists 220 guests and Astoria Event Venue lists over 700. This guide gives each venue’s figure, the page it came from and the day we read it.
Why Do Couples Choose Irving and Las Colinas for a Wedding?
Guests flying in are the main reason. Dallas Fort Worth International Airport borders the city. When the hotel and the ballroom share one property, guests park the car on Friday and leave it there. Omni Las Colinas also faces Lake Carolyn, which gives its courtyard a water view.
The choice of room is wider than Irving’s reputation suggests. Irving has a resort hotel, a golf club and a standalone event hall. Each sets its own rules on capacity, outside vendors and hours.
How Large Can an Irving Wedding Get?
Larger than most couples expect. Astoria Event Venue prints a main hall of more than 12,500 square feet that seats over 700 guests for a sit-down event. Omni Las Colinas prints up to 600 for its Las Colinas Ballroom, which covers more than 10,000 square feet and divides into six sections. Hackberry Creek Country Club prints up to 220 in its clubhouse ballroom, with a dance floor.
That range covers a 200-person club wedding and a 500-person party that few Dallas hotel ballrooms could seat.
What Guest Capacity Do Irving and Las Colinas Venues Publish?
These are the guest figures three Irving venues print on their own pages. Astoria prints “over 700,” so the table shows 700 as the minimum.

The three figures count different things. Omni prints the most guests it can accommodate at a reception. Hackberry Creek prints a ballroom with a dance floor. Astoria prints a seated figure for a hall that scales. Ask each venue for the seated figure with your dance floor and buffet or plated layout.
Which Venue Fits Which Guest Count?
Each row uses the largest figure that venue prints. A venue marked No for a guest count prints a smaller number.
| Venue | Largest figure | What it counts | 100 guests | 200 guests | 300 guests |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Omni Las Colinas Hotel | 600 | reception in the Las Colinas Ballroom | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Hackberry Creek Country Club | 220 | clubhouse ballroom | Yes | Yes | No |
| Astoria Event Venue | 700 | sit-down event in the main hall | Yes | Yes | Yes |

| Month | Rain (inches) | Days with 0.10 inch or more |
|---|---|---|
| January | 2.53 | 4 |

Irving’s lakefront and courtyard ceremonies depend on dry weather. May is the wettest month at 4.78 inches over 6.4 days. October follows at 4.37 inches. July is the driest at 2.08 inches over 2.9 days, though it is also one of the hottest months.
A couple who wants an outdoor ceremony and a cooler day is choosing between a wetter spring and fall and a drier summer. The ballroom at each venue above is the backup in every month.
Does Poppy Planning Coordinate Events in Irving?
Our published guide to Dallas and Fort Worth coordination names Irving, and our locations page describes weddings, corporate programs and social celebrations across the Metroplex. The Irving reference in our guide is about corporate work, a leadership summit. We have not published a client wedding in Irving.
What Does Poppy Planning’s Corporate Experience Add to a Wedding?
Large Irving rooms are often booked for corporate events, so a wedding in one shares a building with that world. Our team plans both. Our Galderma program at the Beverly Hills Four Seasons ran several days, with a main stage, breakout sessions, an outdoor hosted dinner and an anniversary celebration, and we handled staging, hospitality and the run of show on a retainer. The SHM Architects event took place at SHM Dallas HQ.
The overlap helps a couple. A hall that hosts company dinners already has staging and service routes, and our planners know what to ask a venue about them.
