Want to visit The Allan House? You can call or email us to schedule an appointment for a private tour.

The Allan House began as the private residence of Scottish immigrant and educator John T. Allan. As one of the few remaining Victorian homes in the downtown central business district, The Allan House offers a truly unique place for people to gather.

We have taken great care and effort to restore the home to its original grandeur. The Allan House is now available for corporate and private functions.

The Allan House is ideally suited for weddings, receptions, corporate functions, and charitable events. The gated grounds include a charming stone patio with native Texas blossoms under a canopy of century old majestic oak trees.

The elegant interior space accommodates formal wedding ceremonies up to 100 people and is suitable for approximately 80-100 people to enjoy a seated formal dinner. Using our courtyard for your ceremony, we can seat up to 250 guests. For casual cocktail parties, we can accommodate up to 350 guests, with seating for 200. For our special events and weddings that require seating for every guest, we can accommodate 250 using the indoor space and verandas or 200 using only the courtyard. We have hosted many intimate garden brunches and luncheons celebrating graduations, bridal showers, baby showers, engagement parties and bridesmaids lunches, just to name a few.
