Beautiful Bouquet Alternatives

Terrell Barn Wedding

Terrell Barn Wedding

Do you want a unique twist in your wedding? Maybe you’ve never been a flower person? There are so many other options for what you can hold walking down the aisle! You can even have your bridesmaids match by carrying similar things.

  • Do you love hand stitching and embroidery? Carry an embroidery loop! This can have your last name, a special word, or an image on it. One really great thing about these is that they can be a DIY project with you and your best girls, or you can even support a local artist.
  • If you’re having a vintage inspired wedding, you could have everyone holding lanterns as they walk down the aisle before you. You can either search for vintage ones, or find some online at places like Etsy! This will nicely tie your vintage theme together.
  • If you like green plants rather than flowers, opt for everyone to carry a succulent! A succulent in a basket or small macrame bag would be a unique and beautiful twist on a whole bouquet. Your bridesmaids, and you, will be able to keep them afterwards, as well! Everyone will get to think about your big day when they water the plants.
  • Lastly, if you want your dog to be a part of your big day, walk him down the aisle with you! This is a great way to have your furry friend be a part of your big day and avoid holding a bouquet down the aisle! With this one, keep in mind how your animal acts with new people and in general. If you have a crazier dog, this may not be the best idea!

The Establishment Barn is excited to see how you celebrate your day in every way, including with what you carry! Contact us with questions about what we allow at our venue.

Best venue EVER! Not only is it absolutely stunning inside and out with attention to detail, but the owner is so sharp and helpful! It is so new, so all the amenities are flawless. We were able to come in on Friday and set up all of our decorations and tables, which made it possible to have a very relaxing Saturday while getting ready. Sara, the owner, met with us one month out and gave us such great planning suggestions and help ease our last minute stress. After the wedding, all of our friends RAVED about how gorgeous the venue was! Also, the bridal suite is massive and so pretty! Perfect for a large bridal party! I would recommend 1000 times.

My daughter was married at the Establishment Barn on June 1. The venue is absolutely beautiful! The design is amazing. Sara thought of every detail to create a bride's dream wedding experience! The bridal suite is very large and beautifully decorated. The groom's room was awesome too. The entire venue is spacious and just amazing, inside and out! Sara has a very calming nature and is wonderful to work with. She really helped my daughter and I through the process by answering any question we had and sharing recommendations with us. If you're looking for a wedding venue, or any type of event, go visit! You will fall in love!

"My husband and I just had our wedding this past weekend and we couldn’t have chosen a better venue. Besides it being an absolute gorgeous venue, the service was spectacular. Everyone went above and beyond to make sure that our day was everything we’ve dreamt of and more."

- Haylee Cano

The owners, Sara & Austen are two of the friendliest people you’ll come to know! Their energy and passion for hosting dream weddings was evident from day one. Sara made me feel comfortable and valued during our first tour. She understood that weddings are EXPENSIVE and IMPORTANT! She accommodated to all of our needs and answered my questions throughout the planning process. On our wedding day, staff was available to assist us when needed. Everything went so smoothly and it truly was the perfect day in the most beautiful venue! Having an outdoor AND indoor option was especially important to us as well. You will have that here! The bridal suite is a MUST SEE. It’s spectacular!! Sara & Austen do honor first responders AND nurses by providing a discount on your big day. We would recommend this couple AND this venue over and over again!

"The space is absolutely incredible! You will definitely get your dream wedding and more here! Not to mention the owners are the greatest. They are organized, timely, and super creative. Best venue of the South!"

- Caylee Taylor

"My daughter's wedding was absolutely perfect! The Establishment Barn is a beautiful venue and Sarah, The Establishment Barn's owner was amazing! Sarah was so helpful and easy to work with...she ensured my daughter had the wedding of her dreams!"

- Jani Mansour

I would recommend Sara and her beautiful Barn in a heart beat. The venue is amazing and the bride/groom suites are unlike anything you have seen. It is a bit of a drive (we live in Dallas) but with the help of bus shuttles taking everyone out, it was perfect and so worth the drive. Sara was super sweet and helpful with her quick responses and vendor recommendations!

- Diana Knee

"Beautiful venue. Great owners and staff. Our day was better than I ever could’ve dreamed and a lot of that was thanks to the Establishment. I highly recommend this venue!"

- Claire Brewer

What can I say... this venue is a little slice of heaven tucked away in the woods. From beginning to end the process was professional and flawless, thanks to the Owner of the barn, Sara.

Sara went out of her way to have a friend run to get a Bundt cake when my cake girl was unresponsive and late. She let us use the barn and the bridal suite for my bridals which turned out beautiful. My guests RAVED about how beautiful it was. Close (11 miles) to some brand new very clean, nice hotels in Terrell - they even decorated our room the night of our wedding! I loved that I didn’t need to bring much decor because the barn’s beauty was enough! We were able to get there super early in the morning to start getting ready and relax in the upstairs oasis - it was just perfect. Can’t say enough - really.

- Lauren Barrett

The Establishment Barn and Sara (the owner) are so wonderful, it’s going to be hard to put into words how perfect and amazing everything was for our wedding. If you are looking for a great wedding venue, look no farther than The Establishment Barn. It truly is a hidden gem and I can’t imagine having my wedding any other place.

The Establishment Barn is a hidden gem just one hour east of Dallas. The property is beautiful and the barn itself is amazing. There is a beautiful and very large bridal suite upstairs and the groom’s suite is downstairs. There is a large kitchen for the caterer and a spacious area for cocktail hour.

Sara was so easy to work with and was very responsive anytime my wedding coordinator or myself had a question. She made herself available on a Sunday afternoon so my wedding coordinator and I could tour the venue together to discuss how everything was going to be setup. She was there during the setup up and our entire wedding, helping our coordinator if needed. She even texted me the day of my wedding saying congratulations and to savor the day because it’s going to be a day we will remember forever.
