At Barr Mansion we believe in creating a space where every moment is remarkable.
We are a wedding and events venue located in the heart of Austin, just northeast of downtown and fifteen minutes from the capital – seven acres of organic gardens, beautiful landscapes, and thoughtfully designed buildings.
Barr Mansion captures the essence of contemporary, organic beauty – offering unparalleled settings, full service coordination and exceptional, farm-to-table cuisine.
Our Food
Our history
A property with three unique settings and a rich history spanning centuries.
Our story begins with our charming, Victorian Mansion built in 1898 – a true piece of Texas history. In 2000, our story continued when we added an 18th century Artisan Ballroom to the property - shipped piece by piece from New York. And in 2014 we expanded further, added the farmstead – a contemporary take on an open-aired pavilion. Three settings surrounded by acres of gardens giving unparalleled options for hosting weddings and events.
Weddings
Okay, you caught us. People love Barr Mansion for weddings (can you blame them?). We believe that weddings should look and feel amazing and actually be fun, not stressful. Save yourself a drive to a Dripping Springs venue some developer from California started and stay at home in Austin with a crew that actually gets it. Our full-service wedding staff handle the details, you can relax knowing you are in good hands.
Events
It’s not our place to tell you how to take advantage of 29,600 ft2 of breathtaking space. We might suggest an unforgettable gala, a retirement party for a boss you actually like, a groundbreaking product launch or an intimate festival that changes the face of music – but, again, we’re not in charge.
