Barn Wedding North Texas

You know all the vendors that you need when you’re planning your big day, but what about the beauty appointments? Your favorite North Texas barn wedding venue has all the tips about the appointments you need before your big day!

• Make sure to get that manicure and pedicure appointment chosen and figured out just a day or two before your wedding day! You don’t want your fingernails to have time to grow out between getting them done and your wedding day. On the same wavelength, you don’t want your toenail polish to have time to chip off, either!
• About a week before, have a wax appointment scheduled. A week will give your body proper time to heal. This will also avoid any ingrown hairs while still not being grown out.
• Around a month before your wedding day, schedule a hair appointment to get a trim, touch up color, or anything else you need or want done! This will give you time to get used to whatever changes you make, and will allow time if you need anything fixed. Whoever is doing your hair on your wedding day will also be able to practice on what your hair will really be like if you make changes far enough out.
• Lastly, schedule a teeth cleaning and whitening a couple of weeks before. This will make sure your pearly whites are pearly white on your big day! You’ll be smiling huge all day long and you’ll want your teeth to be beautiful and shiny. You’ll thank yourself in twenty years when you’re looking back at pictures, as well.

You are so beautiful without any of these appointments. With that, let your choice of what beauty appointments be just that, your choice! We are so excited to see you looking beautiful for your wedding day at our barn!

Premier DFW Barn Venue

Have you always dreamed of huge, beautiful dress on your wedding day? But on the flip-side want to dance all night long without being exhausted from your heavy dress? It is becoming more of a trend to change parts of your wedding day outfit from the ceremony to the reception. There are a couple of ways that it is easiest to do this, and our premier DFW barn venue wanted to share them with you!

• The biggest change would be to switch your dress out for a different one! With this, you can keep a long dress that is just less fabric. This will keep you from being weighed down while you’re partying. You could also change to a shorter dress, or even a colored dress! Choose one that you still feel beautiful and comfortable enough in to dance the night away with your closest friends and family.
• For a smaller change to your wardrobe, go for a shoe change! Take off those heels and put on some of your favorite shoes instead. Whether you go for a pair of Converse or your favorite sandals, comfort wins out. Keeping dancing shoes on will make sure you don’t step in anything that falls on the floor, as well! If you go with this change, be sure to tell your tailor about it so that they can prepare your dress properly.
• Lastly, if you had your hair down for the ceremony, consider changing your hair to a simple updo. This will keep your hair from getting too sweaty and keep you a whole lot cooler all night. You will not regret this decision!

Whether you want to do a quick change between ceremony and reception or stay in the same outfit, we are so excited to have you at our barn! If you’re looking for your perfect venue, contact us for more information.

Dallas Barn Venue

It is the weekend of your wedding at our Dallas barn venue and you’re going to get your nails done with your best girls! What should you get, though? We have a few ideas for you to make your nails be as neutral as you want or make them stand out as much as you’d like!

• If you want something subtle, go for neutral pinks or skin tone colored nails. Not only will these be subtle, but they will be incredibly elegant, as well. You can do gel on your natural nails, or add some length to them.
• Going a little further than fully neutral, champagne colored nails are another great and, overall, subtle choice. These get into the gold and rose gold colors and can compliment a cream colored or ivory dress incredibly well. If you want to make a color like this a little more fun, you can do a glittery version of these, too. They will catch the light just right and everyone will love them.
• Having trouble finding a something blue? Make your nails your something blue! Choose a light blue or a pale blue and it will be the perfect something blue for your wedding day.
• Lastly, there are so many nail artists that can do intricate designs on nails. If you want ombré nails or unique French tips this is the way to go. Even if you want some artwork or your favorite modern art piece on your nails for your big day, find a nail artist to go to! These will really stand out for your big day and everyone will be wondering where you go them done.

Choice Texas Barn Wedding

Wedding trends come and go, but The Establishment Barn really hopes that this trend stays! As a hint, it is something that millennials just can’t get enough of: brunch. Brunch weddings have become immensely popular this year and have not gone out of style yet. We wanted to share with you why you should consider having a brunch wedding at our choice Texas barn wedding venue.

• One plus to a brunch wedding is being able to serve brunch food. Whether you have fruit salad offerings, waffles, or breakfast tacos, everyone loves a good brunch menu. There are endless options to choose from for food at a brunch wedding! This also includes brunch drinks. Have mimosas as your speciality cocktails, or even a mobile coffee bar!
• Another plus is being able to have your wedding in the daytime and have a chill rest of your day as newlyweds afterwards! You will not be rushing home or to the airport at 10pm, but rather, will be able to spend a solid amount of the evening and night just the two of you.
• A brunch wedding is the perfect wedding for a couple who is more low-key. There most likely won’t be a huge dance party mid-day (unless you want there to be!). It is perfect for the couple who wants a more casual, laid-back wedding. Brunch weddings are also great for couples who want to have a tea-time vibe to their wedding day!

There are so many more reasons to have a brunch time wedding, and we would love to talk to you about them! Contact us to talk about your future wedding’s date and time today! We would love to be able to tell you what we have available in our booking for you and your fiancé.

Dallas Barn Wedding Venue

Choosing your wedding colors shouldn’t be intimidating! As your favorite Dallas barn wedding venue, we have some tricks for you to use to choose the perfect colors for your wedding day. There are so many ways to create that perfect palette. The Establishment Barn wanted to help and narrow these options down for you so that it would be easier for you to figure out from.

• Take inspiration from nature! Nature’s color palettes complement each other so beautifully already, so take colors from this. For example, use the colors of a forest! A few shades of green, a light blue, and some natural creams or browns would create a beautiful, forest-y palette. This same principle can be used with anything in nature. It has already done the color palette for you.
• Look to your favorite colors for inspiration. If your favorite color is pink and your spouse’s favorite color is blue, look to different shades to see which would go together to create the perfect color palette! This will make the colors of your wedding extra special when you look back on it in years to come.
• Lastly, take inspiration from the season you’re having your wedding in! For a fall wedding, use burnt oranges or rust reds. For a winter wedding, use navy blue. For a spring a summer wedding, bust out the brighter colors and the pastels. Nothing is wrong or basic about using the current season as inspiration for your color palette inspiration.

Are you still in the beginnings of planning for your wedding and looking for a venue? The Establishment Barn would love to talk to you about open dates that we have for the next few seasons! Feel free to contact us today to get the conversation going about your dream wedding.

Premier DFW Barn Wedding Venue

Are you trying to figure out your guest list at our premier DFW barn wedding venue? We have the best tips for you to build your guest list like a pro! Keep reading to see how we can help you.

To start, make your dream list of all of your guests. Don’t worry about how many are on this list. You will be able to narrow it down and make separate sections later on. For now, you have to only make the dream list!

Now that you have your dream list, its time to organize your potential guests into different lists: A and B. This will help you to organize who you definitely want at your wedding and who you would be alright with not being there. Once this is done, you can send out invitations to list A, and when you begin to get cannot attends, you can take from your list B who you want to fill in. This will make it easier on you to keep everything and everyone organized.

Know that you don’t have to invite everyone! Just because you have one coworker that you love doesn’t mean that you have to invite all 20 of your coworkers. The same goes with extended family. Your wedding doesn’t have to be a family reunion, either. Even if your grandmother insists on inviting all of your third cousins, you don’t have to. It is your wedding and your guest list. Keeping this in mind will help you to lower the guest list and be realistic about who you want to come and who you do not want to come.

If you have questions about how many guests our venue can hold or available dates, we would love to talk with you! Contact us today.
