Loss of an Austin Landmark

The Barr Mansion's Artisan Ballroom burned down this morning after a lightening strike. This is the place Kevin and I had our wedding reception. It's the place I knew I wanted to celebrate my marriage even before we were engaged and the place we called and booked minutes after Kevin popped the question. It holds some of my very best, most beautiful memories. There really was no other place like it.



I'm sad that it's gone and that so many couples who loved the place as much as Kevin and I did will not be able to celebrate their special day in that beautiful room. But the McAfees are such a wonderful family and such great business people, I know these couples will still have the most beautiful weddings on the Barr Mansion grounds and in the house.
