Kell House Museum Overview

Enjoying a centralized location at the corner of 9th and Bluff Streets in downtown Wichita Falls, the Kell House Museum provides a beautiful historic setting that is practically brimming with Southern charm. Built in the late 19th century, this historic manor was once the family home of Frank Kell, a man who was essential to developing the city that sits before you today. The Kell House is beautiful for intimate ceremonies and events. Or choose the lovely formal gardens for a distinctly romantic ambiance for larger events, and create a singularly charming setting for an outdoor ceremony or reception. A white columned pergola is nestled among the shady trees and flourishing flowers of this delightful garden, providing an elegant dining and dancing area for celebrating your union. The nearby Carriage House provides everything that you need for your once-in-a-lifetime event, from the caterer’s kitchens to the beautiful dressing rooms. Holding your wedding at the historically and architecturally significant Kell House Museum places your wedding into a long-lasting Wichita Falls tradition that your guests won’t soon forget!
