Barr Mansion, Ballroom, and Farmstead

Barr Mansion was the wedding venue of my dreams and safe to say rain or shine it was a dream come true! Barr Mansion is a full service venue in the Austin metropolitan area and the cost of the event included my catering and bar services - a dream for coordinating your big day because it means less outside vendors to deal with. (They also now partner with their sister company Stems Floral on events, so truly you could have a majority of your key vendors covered for the day of the wedding if you also chose to go with Stems for your flowers!) Having catering and bartending in house provided an assurance of quality because all food was cooked on site and all bartenders and servers were familiar with the venue space. My friends cannot stop raving about the food, which is wonderful because it was so important to me that it was high quality. They also had kids meals which were perfect for our little guests the day of! The ballroom was everything and the ivy has grown back on the inner window making it such a dreamy space. We had our ceremony in the farmstead and it was so wonderful in the cold weather with the space heaters for guests to stay warm. All spaces were also ADA accessible which was very important to me as I had a guest in a wheelchair. I cannot rave enough about the ease of planning with the AMAZING venue manager Zachary. I truly loved working with him and he answered all my questions quickly, kindly, and professionally. It was such a magical day. My parents loved the venue and I will be raving and recommending Barr Mansion to anyone who asks!

As a photographer and videographer, I find this venue to be an absolute gem. The abundance of natural light creates a perfect setting for capturing stunning photos and videos. Every shoot here benefits from the beautiful lighting, enhancing the overall aesthetic. Beyond the visual appeal, the staff consistently provides outstanding service! The food here is also exceptional and I always look forward to my "vendor" meal in the Mansion. I highly recommend this venue to anyone seeking a location that combines visual beauty, excellent service, and top-tier eats.

I love Barr Mansion! As a wedding photographer I have photographed many weddings here and each one has been so beautiful. There isn't a "bad" location to take photos anywhere on the property. I love that the bride and groom getting ready areas are in the same house and well decorated with plenty of natural lighting. So often the groom is put into a basement or a closet to get ready but not here, it's gorgeous inside of both rooms! Not to mention the reception also has incredible natural lighting. Highly recommend Barr Mansion!

We recently got married at the Barr Mansion and couldn't be more thrilled with how the day turned out! We knew the how stunning the property was but it has a certain extra glow on the wedding day that cannot be described!! The Barr Mansion team was incredibly professional during the planning process. They attentively listened to our questions, assured us with any concerns, and were SO accommodating to any creative request or curiosity we threw at them. Zach was amazing to work with and we are so grateful for his support! On the day itself the entire Barr Mansion staff was FANTASTIC. Every member of the bar and wait staff was so friendly and our guests continued to compliment us on how good the food and drinks were! Our guests kept complimenting us on our "flower drinks" that they were greeted with at the cocktail hour which we later found our were the just the Hugo Spritzes we served via our bar package but they made them extra special!! Truly the best of the best!! We are so happy we decided to go with this venue 🙂

Barr Mansion is a magical place and the people who work there are simply the best (especially Hollie and Hailea)! From the first time we toured the space, my husband and I were in love. The mixture of history, outdoor space and beautiful gardens were everything we didn't know we were looking for. The chef was amazing at helping to curate gluten free options for our celiac guests and create a stunning GF cake for the end of the night! Every single crazy and complicated request I made, Barr Mansion came through. And the millions of emails I sent were always addressed with patience and kindness. On the day of the wedding, everything was handled with such professionalism and precision! Thank you for making it the venue of our dreams! The bar staff, the wait staff, the furniture rentals, the mansion, the drinks, allowing us to bring in late night... literally every aspect was amazing and I am so grateful and lucky to have worked with them.

Barr Mansion was absolutely magical. The venue was perfect for my daughter’s wedding on June 15, 2024. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The food was absolutely amazing. But best of all, the grounds were the perfect backdrop for a late spring wedding! It was the perfect location for us.

Cool wedding venue with a rustic charm and indoor/outdoor offerings. The large yard is great for weddings under an enormous oak tree. Ivy lines most of the structures making everything seem perfectly balanced with its natural area. The indoor reception areas are smaller than the photos on the website make them seem, but they are still lovely areas that will make any couple happy. The food is solid and generously portioned. Overall a good spot for a wedding.
