Weddings at the Canyon West Golf Club
Friendly concepts built into the course show in the greens, fairways, sand traps and lakes which are built to keep the ball rolling onto the green or fairway instead of into a hazard. A ball that ends up in a sand trap, most likely prevents the ball from rolling into the lake, or even worse, out of bounds. Canyon West’s course design also includes surprises along the cart path (which is decorated every 50 yards with a red sculptured brick design) like the heart shaped tee boxes for the women on #2 hole; the heart shaped sand trap on #8 in the middle of a huge figure eight shaped green; and rustic fences constructed out of cedar posts to protect the native prairie grasses and wild flowers bordering the course.
Prickly pear cactus, cholla, live oaks, mesquite, wild plum thickets, and a few big native pecan trees dot the course and protect the deer, quail, raccoons, bobcats, pumas, opossums, occasional skunk, and other wildlife.

Shonda Donegan, a proud resident of Tolar, Texas, where I cherish life with my two delightful children, Coco and Tripp. Boerne, Texas, is where my roots lie and where I attended Boerne High School, a place that nurtured my early creative sparks. Creativity runs in my family; my father is a nationally acclaimed artist, and my late stepfather was a celebrated builder of luxurious homes. My lifelong affinity for horses has led me to my heart's calling: Team Roping. Not only am I deeply passionate about this sport, but I also actively compete, honing my skills and embracing the thrill of the chase.
The world of arts and design has always been a significant part of my life, evolving and growing with each experience. In the early 2000s, I captured life through the lens as a photographer for the Express News in San Antonio, Texas. My career path has been diverse, including stints at major advertising agencies, which I balanced with my dedication to Team Roping. This journey eventually guided me to the western, horse, and livestock industry, where I found a synergy between my professional endeavors and personal interests.
In 2019, I planted new roots in Tolar and furthered my academic journey at Tarleton State University. My family's creative legacy has always been a guiding force, leading me to dabble in interior design and the broader spectrum of creative arts. My Western lifestyle, infused with the rich heritage of North Central Texas, has endowed me with a unique perspective that is an ideal match for Canyon West Golf Course.
With a refined sense of style and a comprehensive background in design, marketing, and photography, I am poised to bring elegance and a fresh creative vision to any event. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to contribute to the vibrant community at Canyon West Golf Course, enhancing each event with a blend of tradition and innovation. Let's create unforgettable experiences together!
