Calling all future bride & grooms in the Austin, Texas area. If you’re looking for the perfect wedding venue surrounded by Texas hill country as well as the city. Then we’re telling you, Barr Mansion is your wedding venue! What an incredible place! Our Austin wedding band, Uptown Drive was thrilled to be the event entertainment for Kaitlyn & Bob’s wedding day this past June. Not only was the weather a dream with perfect sunshine and clear skies but also the wedding vendors knocked it out of the park. All in all, we are not exaggerating when we say it was an unforgettable night.
Southern Gem
We LOVE Barr Mansion for its beauty and historic charm! As an illustration, Barr Mansion is made up of Lush trees, serene landscape, and rich history. Our wedding band can say with great certainty that this Austin wedding venue is as unique as they come. The mansion has stood strong for over 100 years, which in that case makes this venue a southern gem. Not to mention, Barr Mansions 18th century ballroom was shipped piece by piece from New York. Does it get any cooler than that? Absolutely not! They are also, in fact, the first USDA certified organic venue in the country. Given these points, is there any question why Barr Mansion is one of the most sought after wedding venues in the area? We think not 😉
A Moment In Time
Angela King Photography was literally the perfect choice to capture Kaitlyn and Bob’s big day. You’ll love Angela for her organization, sense of calm as well as her friendly nature. Without delay, this Austin based wedding photographer captured all the magic of the wedding day right through her camera lens. She’s a total rockstar!
In addition to photography was an Austin-based team of cinematographers from ILC FIlms. They’ve been on the scene for over seven years and have captured more than 100 weddings. In case that doesn’t make you think they know what they’re doing enough watching them in action solidifies it. This team of videographers and editors are 110% pro-fess-ional on every level.
Intricate Details
Our Austin wedding band, Uptown Drive had the privilege of working together with Pearl Events. We can’t stress enough how much we love Pearl Event’s planning specialist, Lexi Perez. Lexi is indeed an event planning wizard who makes sure every intricate detail is never lost in the chaos. Similar to our Austin wedding band, Pearl Events sticks to a flawless wedding timeline. Therefore making us kind of secretly obsessed with this Austin based planning company.
Something that brings class and elegance to a bride and grooms big day is wedding bouquets and flowers. The crew at Bouquets of Austin, deliver consistent works of art through their flower displays and centerpieces. Also, the work of Adore Makeup Salon can’t go ignored. They were the masterminds behind the bridal parties hair and makeup. They are home of Austin’s first award-winning makeup bar and feature Austin monthly’s best makeup artist.
Celebrate
We loved how wild Kaitlyn and Bob’s wedding guests got! They spent the night getting down on the dance floor with glow sticks and contagious smiles. It was such a joy having our Austin wedding band, Uptown Drive playing everyone’s favorite dance hits. Particularly playing the best dance songs from Motown/Soul eras all the way through the hits of the ’80s, ’90s, 2000’s and today’s top 40. As a result, our Austin party band kept the dance floor packed for the entire course of the night.
Our goal is to ultimately curate the perfect entertainment from start to finish to execute our client’s vision. With this in mind, we’re quite positive we did just that. Altogether, our team has over 5+ years of Austin wedding band experience. Another key point is that our band leader and emcee work closely with your wedding vendors during the planning process. This helps to ensure smooth transitions and a timeline that moves efficiently.
Congratulations
As has been noted, the wedding vendors were out of this world. Each one brought their hard work and talents to showcase at this big event. It was a pleasure to be a small part of an incredibly fun and special wedding day. Thank you immensely, Kaitlyn and Bob, for having us!
