In 1880 Festetics married Lady Mary Victoria Douglas-Hamilton (11 December 1850, Hamilton Palace – 14 May 1922, Budapest), former wife of Albert I, Prince of Monaco. The couple had four children:

  • Prince György Tasziló József Festetics de Tolna (4 September 1882, Baden-Baden – 4 August 1941, Keszthely); who married countess Marie Franziska von Haugwitz.
  • Countess Alexandra Olga Eugénia Festetics de Tolna (1 March 1884, Baden-Baden – 23 April 1963, Vienna); who was married first to Prince Karl von Windisch-Grätz (brother-in-law of Archduchess Elisabeth Marie of Austria) and later to Prince Erwin zu Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Schillingsfürst,
  • Countess Karola Friderika Mária Festetics de Tolna (17 January 1888, Vienna — 21 January 1951, Strobl); who was married to Baron Oskar Gautsch von Frankenthurn.

On June 21, 1911, Count Tasziló Festetics de Tolna was made a Prince with the style Serene Highness (Durchlaucht) by King Francis Joseph I of Hungary. His grandson Georg (born 1940) is the current head of the house. He died, aged 82, at Festetics Palace, Keszthely.
