Although Barron and his wife Debbie are already married, the owners of Los Willows wanted to show their appreciation of Barron’s service and courage by giving the couple the wedding of their dreams. Barron delivered a surprise proposal to Debbie on September 26, 2011, at the Los Willows Estate, and planning soon commenced.

"Al and I are truly honored to offer Los Willows for a wounded warrior’s dream wedding," said Cathie Ransom, co-owner of Los Willows Wedding Estate. "There is not enough we can do for these young soldiers that have put their lives on the line for our nation."
