    Beautiful Venue!

    We cannot thank Station 3 enough! We received multiple compliments about the charm of the venue. Everyone loved the antique/modern atmosphere and the view of downtown Houston from upstairs. Paula was extremely helpful, flexible, and responsive throughout our wedding planning. Paula and the rest of the staff were very attentive on our wedding day making sure we had everything we needed (our dinner plates and cups were full and ready to go so that we could quickly eat and start talking to our guests, dance floor was cleaned immediately after a spill, etc.!) and everything was in order including decorations and vendors. Station 3 is a smaller venue, but it made the night very inviting and intimate-even with 130 guests. We are very happy we had our wedding at Station 3! Thanks! :)

    A Perfect Unique Wedding Venue

    I genuinely cannot recommend Station 3 and Paula enough. My husband and I were expecting around 80-100 for our wedding. We found Station 3 online and immediately loved it. It’s eclectic and quaint, but the black light fixtures and industrial/modern touches made it perfect for the city wedding we were wanting. When we toured, Paula is what sealed the deal. She is comforting and easy-going, but she also made a couple a bit out of their comfort zone planning a wedding, feel so at ease. Throughout the entire planning process, Paula was quick to respond. She connected with almost all of the vendors we used (because we had no idea what we were doing and would ask for recs) and all were absolutely perfect and affordable. The planning process with Paula was a breeze. I could not have been more thankful to work with her throughout it. And on the weekend of, Paula’s patience and thoughtfulness to our large/loud family at the rehearsal was beyond expectations. She made everything seem simple and just reminded us to enjoy. I felt like everything was in the best of hands with her. And the wedding…WOW. It was beautiful and EXACTLY what we wanted (better than we could want!). The views of downtown and the way our colors worked with the black and brick was sublime. We were blown away, our guests were blown away! Station 3 is a beautiful, memorable place to get married that isn’t one of the cookie cutter new venues. It’s historical and special, and we are so thankful we chose it. And Paula…she’s absolutely amazing, so experienced and patient. We can’t recommend Station 3 and Paula enough.

    A joy to work with!

    I worked mostly with Paula from Station 3 and she was an absolute joy to work with! She was always very accommodating and very responsive. She also helped to decrease my anxiety about being a COVID bride. Station 3 is definitely a unique and fun venue - the upstairs area is for eating, the downstairs for dancing and the outside courtyard for quiet area during dancing/cocktail hour. I loved this separation but it may not be for everyone. It also worked out well for COVID because we had less people and so the area didn’t feel so empty but if you’re planning on having a big party this may not be the best place. My husband and I loved the history of the building and I loved the industrial look. I had a ton of ideas and a lot of interesting requests - I was very organized but the team at Station 3 was so great and getting everything just right. In fact they even added on some decorations/ideas that were pleasant surprises on the night of. Loved our experience so much!
