Brandt 1910 

5.0

Wallis, TX
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

Your event just got more sophisticated. When you book with Brandt 1910 you are adding historical style and class to your wedding, party, or private event. Built in 1910 by F.D. Brandt, the "Coca-Cola" building was originally constructed as a general store. Later, the building was split in two to make room for a pharmacy which complimented the nearby local doctor's office which was run by Dr. J.T. Mize, Physician, and Surgeon from 1920 - 1944. The general store, pharmacy, and doctor's office played an integral role in supporting the local commerce that was brought in by the Gulf, Colorado, and Santa Fe Railroad. In the 1960s the general store was sold and over the years played host to a number of restaurants and an antique store which was owned by Cal Ray Schluter who believed in preserving the old building for future generations. In 2022, Mr. Schluter sold the building to Joshua and Natalie DeJong with the purpose of restoring and preserving the building for its historic beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having my daughter's wedding and reception at The Barnhill Center was amazing! It was so nice and convenient to be able to have the wedding ceremony in the theater and then the guests just go upstairs for the reception. The theater is absolutely beautiful! We loved the historic feel and look. The ballroom is so elegant with gorgeous chandeliers and beautiful wood floors. Most of our guests were from Houston, Austin and Dallas and many told us they were so impressed with the venue. The pictures online do not do it justice. My daughter and her fiance' (now husband) looked at pictures of the Barnhill Center and thought it was very pretty, but when they saw it in person they fell in love with it immediately and didn't want to look at any other venues. It is truly the perfect wedding venue! Not only is the Barnhill Center amazing, so is the staff. Working with Alexandra Dill was incredible. She went above and beyond anything we could have expected. She was very professional, first class and so much fun to work with. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed working with her. We were able to give our daughter her dream wedding because of The Barnhill Center at Historic Simon Theatre. We couldn't have asked for a better, more memorable experience!

About wedding venues in Eagle Lake, TX

Why Is Texas an Exceptional Wedding Destination?

Texas offers an incredible variety of wedding settings across its diverse landscapes. You'll find everything from romantic Hill Country vineyards to stunning Gulf Coast waterfronts that provide perfect backdrops for your special day.

Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, you'll find Texas venues ready to accommodate your vision.

What's the Average Cost of Wedding Venues in Texas?

Wedding venues in Texas typically cost between $3,000 and $30,000+ depending on what you're looking for. The national average runs about $6,500-$12,000 which represents roughly 25% of your total wedding budget.

Texas couples typically book their wedding venues about 16 months (or 457 days) before their wedding date. November stands out as the most popular month for venue inquiries so planning early is essential if you're considering this timeframe. This advanced booking timeline helps you secure your preferred date since popular venues often fill their calendars far in advance especially for prime weekend dates.

Plus you'll have more time to work with venue coordinators to customize floor plans and discuss details that will make your celebration uniquely yours.

Food-focused couples should also consider Steiner Ranch Steakhouse in Austin where you'll enjoy spectacular views alongside premium cuts of Texas beef.

Avenida Brazil Churrascaria Steakhouse in the Houston area offers a unique Brazilian steakhouse experience with tableside carving and a festival atmosphere your guests will remember long after the wedding day.

How Can Texas Venues Support Remote Wedding Participation?

For couples wanting to include loved ones who can't attend in person, several Texas venues now offer more than just basic streaming services. Venues like Agave Estates Mara Villa and The Middleton Venue in Katy specialize in creating interactive remote experiences that make distant guests feel truly present. You can work with these venues to design custom interactive elements that go beyond passive viewing. Think virtual guest books where remote attendees can leave video messages remote toasts synchronized with in-person celebrations and even coordinated dance moments. These thoughtful touches ensure everyone feels included in your celebration regardless of where they're located.
