Inside Scoop

Our venue is surrounded on all sides by beautiful, rolling ranch land, where Black Angus cattle are raised.  Our guests get so excited when the curious cattle come close to our fenceline for group photos!!

Venue Features
The scene:
Our venue is situated on 8 acres, surrounded by 100s of acres of ranchland where cattle roam. Our historic barns are nestled in a pecan orchard with incredible sunsets and gentle breezes. White rail fencing frames the property and you and your guests experience an authentic taste of Texas.
This area is steeped in Texas history and is located near the birthplace of Texas. Our area's roots go back to the Texas Revolution and Independence.
Design:
After a year of renovations, our farmstead estate and its farmhouse, cottages and barn were lovingly restored and updated. Our bride's cottage and groom's carriage house were once residences of farm managers and they are charming and very spacious!

Our all inclusive packages are a huge hit. They include parking attendants, golf-cart shuttle, day-of-coordination, venue manager, staff, set-up and clean-up.

2017's Most Stunning Barns Across The USA
There’s something pretty wonderful about a wedding at a barn. You’re often away from the city, hidden from the world, and surrounded by nature. The sun stretches its beams in full during the ceremony and the moon watches over the festivities of the reception. It’s a really good deal. We love all kinds of barns, from peaceful forest scenes in the Pacific Northwest to sprawling lawn offerings in the South. There’s a storybook quality to them and it always seems like the most welcoming atmosphere and spirited celebration around. That’s why we put together the latest edition of this annual collection. Make sure to check out the previous editions of our favorite wedding barns in America as well, because it seems like that’s where the best times happen.  By: Jake Kilroy
