    What People Say

    I Love This Venue

    It was affordable compared to others and you could do all the food/alcohol and deco however you wanted. I am in the food business so we brought in all of our preferred caterers, flowers, cake people, DJ we wanted etc. If you want a venue who will list it all out for you this place may not work for you but be prepared to pay way expensive somewhere else. The venue turned out beautiful and I loved how I could do my ceremony down stairs then reception upstairs. You get 2 visits beforehand to work on your layout and also have the venue from 9am-2am. Follow all rules on the agreement and you will get your deposit back. Easy as that.

    The Perfect Wedding Venue

    The Houston Heights Fire Station was the perfect wedding venue for me and my husband! We had a wedding of ~100 guests, so we used the downstairs area for cocktail hour, the upstairs for dinner, and the downstairs again for cake & dancing. Dewayne Ross, the new coordinator at HFS, was a joy to work with - so responsive to every question and tour request. We even ended up booking him to handle our linen and furniture rentals. The venue itself is clean and beautifully maintained - the perfect vibe for our classic wedding. The best part is the venue is BYOB - we could buy alcohol from Total Wine and have our caterer serve it - which helped us easily customize our bar menu and save A LOT of money. Highly recommend!

    Beautiful Historic Venue

    This is such a beautiful historic venue and my new husband and I had a blast at our wedding here. The venue host, Dewayne Ross, went above and beyond for the entire year we were planning our wedding to help us make sure everything was in place for our special day, and was so responsive to all of our messages and (many) changes. As others have said, this venue is very DIY, so be prepared to either hire full service planning or do a lot of your own research. If you’re up for this, the end result is SO worth it. It is really a beautiful place. Thank you Dewayne and Heights Fire Station!!
