Here are two more variants:

# large Entry widget
from Tkinter import *

master = Tk()
e = Entry(master)
e.pack(expand=1, fill=BOTH)
b = Button(master, text="get")
b.pack()

master.mainloop()

# nested Frame widget
from Tkinter import *

master = Tk()
panel = Frame(master)
panel.pack(expand=1)
e = Entry(panel)
e.pack()
b = Button(panel, text="get")
b.pack()

master.mainloop()
