Jessica Sent on 06/09/2025The BEST venue experience in Dallas!
I have been a wedding vendor in Dallas for 10+ years and Michelle at HSA is always our favorite to work with! She is so friendly, makes it so easy for us to do our job (especially when we have unique installations!) and goes above and beyond to make sure its a great experience for all vendors involved, not just the wedding couple. I always get excited when I book a wedding at HSA because it is always the best experience! -

Myra Sent on 03/26/2025Amazing!
We had our first Dallas Windup Watch Fair at Hickory Street Annex! Michelle and her team were such a key component in making the event a HUGE success. Although HSA is "typically a wedding venue", the property itself has built in charm that provided the perfect backdrop for our enthusiast event. Thank you HSA for being so amazing! -

Nelly Sent on 03/25/2025Amazing Service and Beautifully Appointed Venue
Michelle and the whole team at Hickory Street Annex was amazing! My team and I organize the Windup Watch Fair, which we hosted in Dallas for the first time in March. Michelle and her team were amazing during pre-production arrangements, throughout the event, and as we were loading out and closing our contract. Michelle was especially helpful to us in figuring out how to arrange the logisitics for our event which is open to the public (I gather most events hosted there are by invitation only).
The event space is well appointed, beautifully updated, airy, bright, and spacious. We were able to utilize both the parking lot at the venue, as well as the gated (and guarded!) lot across the street. Additionally, Michelle helped to arrange coverage from the Dallas Police Department to help us with extra security for our event.
Michelle and her team were awesome and went the extra mile for us! We hope to be back in the future! -

The Perfect Venue!!!
Absolutely in love with this venue!! Michelle was so easy to work with and quick to respond to all my questions throughout the wedding planning process. When looking for a venue I knew I wanted a more industrial, modern look and this venue has so much character and created the perfect romantic vibe for our wedding. We got SO many compliments from our guests about the uniqueness of this venue. I was initially a little worried about the layout and flow of the night with the freight elevator in the middle of the space, but everything flowed perfectly and the elevator created the most dramatic grand entrance. Could not recommend this venue more!! -

The BEST in Dallas
Stop looking this is the best venue in Dallas. Our wedding in July could not have been more perfect thanks to Hickory Street Annex and the team there. Michelle is the site manager and is very responsive and helpful! She recommended fabulous other vendors that knew the space well. She even had an eye for color and decor, she helped us pick out linens and more.
My guests had nothing but wonderful things to say from easy flowing spots for catering and bar availability, beautiful hanging installments that were possible from the beams, and the views of downtown Dallas! The vibe of the space is warm and inviting. It is laid out perfectly! It held 160 of our guests comfortably! We had cocktail hour downstairs with the patio that was perfect. There are multiple bathrooms for guests.
The best part of all was the room upstairs for the bride and groom to keep their stuff, and we even had a private dinner in that space. We truly had it all! And topped it off with a beautiful sparkler exit!! I can’t recommend Hickory Street Annex enough! -

Dallas hidden gem!
Having our wedding at Hickory Street Annex was so amazing!! It's truly a hidden gem in Dallas. Communicating and planning with Michelle was wonderful, and we got so many complements from our vendors and guests on the layout, look and vibe of Hickory Street Annex. It has such great getting ready areas, beautiful vine wall for photos, great space for dancing and the reception, and entry shelves that was so fun to decorate with special items. Love love love this place!! -

My husband and I got married at Hickory Street Annex June 2023. Not only is this venue beautiful top to bottom, it is at a prime location in Dallas. Our guests were raving about the Edison lights, the natural greenery, and the industrial yet chic style of the venue. Michelle and her staff were very organized in documenting everything we wanted and made adjustments as needed. If you are searching for a stunning venue with the best staff, look no further! -

Emily Sent on 06/04/2024We love this venue!
We absolutely loved having our wedding reception at Hickory Street Annex! Michelle was a great communicator, very flexible, and super easy to work with! This venue is so beautiful and has lots of character with amazing Dallas views. Our guests gave us so many compliments on how cool and unique this venue is. There is also a great "getting ready" area that we were able to use the morning of our wedding. Our photos there turned out beautifully, especially with all the spring flowers and greenery. We can't recommend this wedding venue enough! -

Logan Sent on 04/18/2022My Dream Venue
Hickory Street Annex was my dream venue - it is intimate, cozy, and had everything we needed. The bridal suite is HUGE, which was a huge plus for my nine bridesmaids and all of our makeup and hair artists day-of. Michelle went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable and secure for our wedding day. The price point was perfect for us and we could not be happier with how our entire wedding day went. -

John Sent on 07/05/2020A band-leader raves about Hickory Street Annex
As fellow wedding vendor (leading my party band Special Edition), I cannot rave enough about Hickory Street Annex. We have performed at this place dozens of times and Michelle and the staff are always easy to work with and professional and courteous. Hickory Street Annex has a distinctive, "throw back" vibe, with modern amenities, and a great view of downtown Dallas. -

Victoria Sent on 10/15/2018Excellent and unique venue
The venue allowed for optimal natural lighting during the evening, and once turned to night, the adorable lighting options turned the venue into a romantic ambiance. I found this venue perfect for me as I've never been a fan of hotel ballroom or barns, and this completely reflected my tastes and personality. The venue is so beautiful bare, not much decoration is needed to dress it up. There was plenty of room for activities and I actually really enjoyed how easily the upstairs transformed from ceremony to reception. The bridal suite that dualed as the cocktail hour space is just ADORABLE. I was so happy to be in such a well-decorated and comfortable environment while getting ready for my special day and then later to chat with friends shortly after the ceremony. The Hickory team was very patient with me as a clueless bride-to-be and answered all my questions within the day or next. I had a custom backdrop for the ceremony that my father created and they provided me all the details I needed to ensure I could fit the backdrop into the venue. They allow tons of lighting and furniture rental options that really complement the venue’s look. Overall, this venue is different from any I've ever seen, but I think it captured my and my husband's taste perfectly. Thank you for letting us use your gorgeous space for our special day! -

Bailey Sent on 09/12/2018The venue really makes or breaks an event and this is the perfect space. It allows for the ceremony/reception/cocktail hour to be in the same place which is exactly what we were looking for. We also loved having the groom and bride space to allow everyone to get their finishing touches done before the wedding started. There were so many photo opportunities and I loved getting to take pictures outside. The ceremony and reception area allow for an intimate and unique setting which is the environment we wanted. We were able to meet with Tori and Michelle before the wedding to get linens picked out, floor plans set, and all of our questions answered. They made the wedding planning process so easy. Also, this venue is in a great location if you have a lot of out of town guests who want to explore and stay in the heart of Dallas.

Cathy Sent on 03/03/2015A beautiful venue. If you are searching for the most unique and beautiful setting for a wedding, this is it. The lighting, huge white paper lanterns, city view and photo opportunities make HSA a fairy land.
Our guests were amazed. The food from Gils Elegant Catering was not your basic catered food. Plenty to eat. Plenty to drink.
And every part of the evening went off without a glitch. Of course, I have to thank the wedding assistant Amanda Taylor for directing our perfect night. -

Shannon Sent on 06/26/2012For the laid-back, artsy bride! Not only is the venue itself beautiful with a modern, industrial twist. The staff was very helpful, had great communication throughout the process and was great to work with. Everyone still raves to me about how much they loved my wedding venue! -

Christina Sent on 01/31/2012We had our ceremony and reception at HSA. It was absolutely perfect! Michelle was so easy to work with. She was also a great resource because she helped us find many of our other vendors who were also amazing. The space is so unique. Many of our guests have commented on how unique and beautiful the venue was. We liked that all tables and chairs were included in the rental fee and we could bring in our own alcohol, which saved us some money.
If I had to do it all over again, I would not change a thing. -

Rashida Sent on 07/21/2009LOVE, LOVE, LOVE HSA! I couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect place for our wedding ceremony and reception. Michelle is by far the best to work with. If you are looking to do an eco friendly wedding and/or reception this is your place! I highly recommend Hickory Street Annex, especially if you are not having children at your event! -

Brittany Sent on 11/16/2022Blown away
I had my wedding at Hickory Street Annex last October and it was everything I could have dreamed of. First off, Michelle is incredibly responsive. She was ALWAYS available for me to ask her loads of questions (since I've never planned a wedding before!) and she answered back within a day, sometimes within a few hours! Her responsiveness was so helpful. Second, she is beyond organized and a well-oiled machine. She will guide you through all of the details and I never once worried about whether she had everything under control. Third, She also did our lighting and linens rentals, and it was all just so beautiful. I can't say enough about how amazing Michelle is and how stunning HSA is. That place just GLOWS as the night goes on. I had several wedding guests tell me how cool and gorgeous the venue was. Lastly, I thought her pricing was very fair. She walks you through all of the quotes and doesn't hide the ball from you when it comes to invoicing. She was very transparent, which I think speaks a lot about her. She just cares so deeply and made my day PERFECT! -

Laura Sent on 05/15/2013My husband and I adored Hickory Street Annex the moment we walked in! It was exactly our style and the look we were going for for our wedding. Amanda and Michelle were great to work with from the very beginning. We were able to tour the venue several times and they were both quick on responding to emails and questions. There are so many things that you can do with the space, it's a little overwhelming! They do have a list of approved caterers, but we were able to find one that fit our taste and budget that we really liked (Eddie Deen's). You're able to choose your own florist, DJ, etc. Something that was a little shocking right off the bat was the price of renting the venue, plus some extras (cleaning, security, etc.) that really added up. We bit the bullet because we loved the space, but we definitely had to scale back on other aspects of the wedding. It was definitely worth it though :)
I can't wait to see our pictures from our ceremony and reception, they are bound to be stunning in such a beautiful venue. There are also several really unique places outside of the venue to take pictures as well! I think hands down the best money that we spent though was hiring the wedding coordinator, Amanda Taylor, through the venue. She was AMAZING. She contacted all of my vendors to arrange arrivals and details and made sure that my wedding day was perfect. She responded to late night emails and answered all of my questions, big or small. Great venue (and coordinator!) and I would highly recommend this unique space for a wedding or any other event! -

Whitney Sent on 11/22/2011I searched and searched and could not find a place that I really wanted to have my wedding reception until I came to Hickory Street Annex. I actually changed my wedding date so that I could have my reception here. It is unique and has the vintage vibe to it. Michelle is the person that I worked with for everything and she was wonderful. She always responded the same day I sent an email out, and let me come down and look at the space whenever I needed to. She was very helpful with decorating suggestions and tips, and also working with my wedding planner. She is awesome!!! Hickory Street Annex is a great and fun place to have your wedding recption. I highly recommend using it for any bride that is looking for a different and fun place to celebrate there marriage.
