our
STORY
Originally built in 1881 in Bartlett, Texas, The Grand Lady began as a wedding gift for Mrs. Walton — a gesture of love and celebration that continues today. In 2019, we began a careful restoration to honor her historic beauty while creating a space designed for modern weddings. With the help of talented industry professionals, we’ve restored the mansion, built a modern event hall, and cultivated our on-site flower farm and floral studio — crafting one of the most distinctive wedding venues in the Austin area.
A wedding gift from the start: The Grand Lady, built in 1881 as a lavish wedding gift for Mrs. Walton, has been lovingly preserved and now graces Manor, Texas among 20 acres of oak trees and ornate details.
