The Barn
Established as a wedding venue in late 2020, the past owners wanted to share their beautiful property with others as covid hit, they wanted to allow people to celebrate quietly but respectful of others. The new owners as of August 2022 bought the property and have put in substantial upgrades making the property more desirable and laid out for a wonderful event hall. Renaming the venue as Magnolia Creek Ranch many have loved the transition. Since it opened with no marketing for past year there are many great early 2023 dates still available. Who needs a long engagement. They can easily put a wedding together in just a couple weeks if necessary.
Malkingham, LLC partners, chose a more finished look and couples are appreciating the additions they have made. Striving for a classy and more couture wedding market the new owners have a delightful vision for building Princeton as a wonderful wedding destination, close enough to the city but far enough for the privacy desired. The clients and guests love the experience and expertise the staff brings to the table making their events run smoothly and without stress, attracting couples wanting the rustic Texas charm in a barn or ranch wedding, but with luxury touches for all to enjoy.
