Looks like the routunda at the Texas State house.  What is it?

I agree with Bob that it is the rotunda in the Texas State Capitol.

I was hoping that it was a place setting for state dinners - however, it is in fact the rotunda of the Texas State Capital.  Incredible architecture... a ton of history.

I;m guessing it is a dome ceiling in a special building but I do not live out that way.  How did I do?

Ryan, I was going to say a rotunda - and it definitely looked like it was in a government building - the wedding part threw me off, I thought maybe it was a church? But it didn't fit, so I confess to being a bit confused! Great photo :)

Monica - Pretty close.

Debbie - It was a business trip - KW Mega Agent program, NAR Tech Program, a speaking engagement and a little bit of fun.  Austin is a wonderful town - wish I had a week there.

Sharon - You made a bit of assumption on the wedding part.  It is used for state receptions.  It is a fantastic building with lots of great history.

Looks like the dome in the state capital building to me.  But then I've never been there so it's a wild guess.

Only the dome of the Texas capitol would have such a giant star at the center.

Richard - You nailed it.

Jim - The star should have been a dead giveaway.

Myrl - Maybe you are correct - the star is probably their symbol

Ann - The tags are a dead giveaway.  However, when I was taking it, I kept thinking that it looked like some fancy place setting.  They say people hear what they want to hear.  I guess people also see what they want to see.
