The Bur Oak is an independently run event venue in the heart of Atwood neighborhood. The Bur Oak Team did major renovations to the space bringing new life to the 96 year old, historic building. They exposed the barrel roof, brick walls, and hand laid tile. They used reclaimed wood specific to the era and added a viennese style stage to the Great Hall. The bartop is hand poured concrete and finished with a hard lacquer to capture an aged look. The remodel is new, but feels lived in and homey with a current capacity of 130 people. Whether you're gathering to watch local entertainment or to celebrate one of the most significant times of your life on your wedding day, the collective dream of this space is to bring all walks of life together for great conversation. We celebrate your freedom to express your true self, to make memories that will last a lifetime and most importantly, we hope to make you feel “at home”.
Come as you are, we already love you and we cannot wait to work with you!

The first time we visited Bur Oak, I mentioned to my other half it would be a beautiful site for a wedding... But at the time it was not accommodating for our then 200 person guest list. The wood detail, styling, lighting, was just our style. Once our wedding plans changed due to the pandemic, we knew who to call.
Ashlee and Andrew were a dream to work with. They were accommodating in working with our budget, making things happen on a short timeline, and super friendly to our family and closest friends. They went above and beyond in helping us play and pause our playlist on cue, as well as get the stage lighting just-so for our ceremony. They even assisted us in selecting our perfect tap list. We especially loved that our guests could come and go from the patio. As always, the venue was stunning and sparkly clean for our intimate gathering.
Thanks for making it a wonderful, memorable wedding day!
