My new husband and I had a great experience with Station 3 for our wedding ceremony and reception earlier this month. Everyone that we dealt with was kind, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the whole process. We dealt with mainly Paula throughout the planning process but day of Sarah was incredible. Really helped our whole night go as planned and kept us hydrated and sane! Would definitely recommend this venue for any type of party or gathering you’re looking to have.

My fiance and I both tried to get a tour here for our wedding and were told by the receptionist twice that we would get a call. We never received a call. We decided to take our business elsewhere. A piece of advice to this venue: Start setting a professional tone for your business or word of mouth by other brides will deplete your clientele, and eventually, you won't have a business. This isn't a good way to gain new business or retain current business. Good luck.

Wow! Paula and her staff are amazing!! We worked with Paula for over a year to execute my daughter & her firefighter husbands perfect wedding! Paula & Station 3 were the only person/venue we looked into. Paula worked with each of our vendors and gave us priceless tips on a flawless floor plan and Looked over our timeline to make sure it would work with the space. I would describe Paula as a powerhouse, firecracker! She kept things moving the night of and was on top of everything. Right down to helping my handicapped, elderly grandparents and getting an unwilling toddler to eat. Thank you Paula for everything!

Our Granddaughter and her fiancé held her wedding and reception here! It was warm and inviting, but most important, both my husband and I are handicapped and Paula and her staff took such good care of us, seeing that we got upstairs before everyone else so we could take our time and making sure my husband’s oxygen was plugged in. Everyone had a wonderful time!

Not only is the venue absolutely stunning, but Paula and her team took the best care of us from day one of our experience! Paula really knows how to keep an event running smoothly and take care of the bride and groom. So many guests commented on how well organized the wedding was and how well the night flowed, and Paula deserves so much of the credit for that!

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.

Station 3 was wonderful. Paula knows how to party and is so great to work with! She was always very accommodating and very responsive. She takes care of her venue and her brides. She always answered any questions we had very quickly. My husband and I loved the industrial look of the venue. We knew many of our guests may not travel to Houston, so the size of the venue was perfect. It ended up being about 75 people and it felt perfect, although we had originally planned for 100 which the venue would still have been perfect for. Paula made many helpful suggestions to pull all of our ideas together and the wedding was amazing. Thank you, Paula.

**DO NOT BE FOOLED by the exposed brick and smiling faces when touring this venue**We put a deposit down for our wedding prior to covid being a thing. Before even having to cancel the wedding because of the pandemic, Paula was always very slow to respond to emails and often required multiple emails to get a response. I won’t even talk about them keeping the deposit- but certainly there are other venues to consider before resorting to this one. Lastly, do your research on this place - the web has some interesting things.

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!

Using Station 3 as our venue was one of the best decisions I made the whole wedding planning process. I was a little worried about the price as the open bar package was more expensive than some other comparable venues in the Houston area, but the level of service absolutely justified the cost (which after adjustments for kids and guests who weren't coming was much more bearable). Planning a wedding through a pandemic is hard enough but Paula and her team were very responsive and helpful with every issue we had. Whenever I needed to reschedule? No Problem. They even had it so that I could get my final guest count a week before rather than 2 weeks due to people dropping out last minute from COVID worries. The inclusion of a day of coordinator also elevates the whole experience! I was constantly given drinks and water throughout the night, our food was prepped for us first, and they did most of the clean up/ filling up water during the event so that my family didn't have too much to do at the end of the night! I can't recommend them enough and if you're having your wedding in Houston, seriously consider having it here!

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 plate 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-we did not feel crowded even with 130 guests. We are very happy we had our wedding at Station 3! Thanks! :)

My husband and I are native Houstonians living in Brooklyn. For our wedding, we wanted to give our guests the most authentically Houston-esque event possible. When we found out about Station 3, we knew there was no other option for us as far as the reception was concerned. The beauty of the space goes without saying, but anyone considering having their event at Station 3 should also know that the event managers (we worked with Kerri & Hayley) are all so helpful, organized, and very communicative. We did not give them an easy event (sudden, torrential downpour + lots of outside/independent vendors + fire inspectors, oh my!), and they handled it like champions. Needless to say, our guests (the majority of whom are in the wedding/events/restaurant business) were blown away. Thanks again for hosting everyone in safety and in style!

All of my out of town guest from California (and my local guests) were amazed by this stunning location. The staff was great contacting me via email, or by phone when needed, and keeping me posted & making sure everything was ready for my big day. Great Venue, Great Service, Wonderful Experience. My wedding was AWESOME!

While my experience at Station 3 was less than stellar, the owner of Station 3 is making efforts to \"make things right\" after the fact.

We knew from the moment that we saw their website that Station 3 was the perfect venue for us; the historic charm and beauty of the firehouse are incredible. The exposed bricks, wood floors, and beautiful lighting make it a great space. Kerri, Ashton, and Hayley were incredibly helpful from the moment that we first contacted them; they almost immediately answered any questions that we had. One of the things that we loved the most was the ability to make our wedding completely our own in terms of vendors and decorations versus a more \"standard/packaged\" deal that we saw other places (i.e. the pick one of these three centerpiece type locations). Our guests were full of compliments about Station 3 - it is truly a beautiful and memorable space. Thank you for everything!

After visiting a few other venues around Houston, Station 3 was our last stop. We almost didn't go because we thought we had already found one we liked. Well after a short tour and talking to Kerry, we immediately knew this venue was the one for us. Kerry was incredibly friendly and down to earth. She was responsive in answering our many questions. The venue was beautiful, small but intimate and exactly the look we were going for. We had our ceremony and the reception there and are so glad we didnt make our guests drive anywhere. The location is a short distance from downtown so it was very convenient to have an afterparty close by on Main St.

We absolutely loved Station 3! I fell in love with this venue the moment I stepped into it and didn't look back. They hadn't even finished all of the remodeling and weren't even hosting venues when we committed, if that lets you know how much I loved it. Kerri, was so fantastic to work with. Very prompt with returning emails and very flexible in letting me come by and just \"look again\" since it was such a long time between signing and our actual wedding date. She even just let me come by, so she could tell me everything was going to be ok. Planning weddings, are stressful you know. This venue was so beautiful, with the original brick and wood as well as the huge glass windows. It also held a special place in mine and my now husband's hearts as his dad used to be a Chief with HFD, so we loved the fact that it was a fire station. I can't wait to see how our pictures turn out from our Halloween wedding at this beautiful location.

I fell in LOVE with this venue the moment I walked in the doors! It's beautiful and full of character. We hardly needed any extra decor, because the building itself is just so beautiful. The staff is wonderful as well. I am completely new to weddings, and having to plan my own without a wedding planner was a bit hectic at times, and the station 3 staff put up with all my questions, concerns, and mistakes flawlessly! They went above and beyond and theres nothing but good things to say about the entire event. I would recommend this venue to anyone.

Fell in love with the place, and the staff were fantastic! As helpful as they could be! My guests loved every bit of it. They felt it was very unique, and the aura was spectacular.\r\rLogistically, a little more difficult than expected. You are only allowed to set up an hour before your event which meant I had to pay for people to set up. I also had to pay extra for the time my people needed. This incurred cost not originally planned. (Some venues, if they have no other events booked, let you come in and set up earlier). Also, their drinks package changed during the year from when I first saw the place which made it more expensive and less drinks were available than expected. You really need to have a coordinator or someone other than your fam helping for this one.

We love Station 3, Kerrie, and the girls there! They did an great job and our wedding was perfect. As soon as we saw the venue we knew it was the one for us. I loved the idea that it's pretty much open to whatever decor idea you can dream up, plus getting to chose your own vendors is great. From the get go Station 3 was more than helpful in answering in and all questions, and letting us meet vendors at the venue when we needed. Working with them was easy and I wasn't worried about a thing. Everything worked out perfectly and the day of our wedding was a success. I had SO many wedding guests say how much they loved the venue and everything about it. We did too! Thanks Station 3 for making our wedding day so special. We couldn't recommend you more!

Not only is Station 3 a unique, memorable and captivating venue, but the service and staff made my wedding planning experience that much better! We worked with Kerri from beginning to end, and she was nothing short of amazing. She was extremely helpful, prompt, responsive and a joy to work with! From choosing a date down, to my bridal session, and then execution on the day - it was all fantastic! The venue is not full-service, which could easily be very stressful, but she helped provide us with trusted preferred vendors, including my wedding planner, to help make everything go as smoothly as possible. Also, the upside of not full-service is the ability to have a very unique and custom wedding! Kerri was very flexible in helping us make our plans work in the space perfectly! She worked with my planner on the layout and other aspects of the night to make sure my reception went off without a hitch - which it did :) All my guests continuously commented on the beauty and uniqueness of the venue as well - definitely not your typical hotel ballroom or run-of-the-mill private space. The exposed brick, lighting and all of the detail that has gone in to Station 3 has truly made it a remarkable and memorable space. It also has a very nice patio that can be utilized along with views of downtown. For me, there was no where more perfect than Station 3 for my wedding reception, and I would highly recommend it!!

My husband and I got married during mid-September and had the wedding we will cherish for many years to come at Station 3. The venue package comes with the services of the venue Coordinator, Kerri Smelek, who is extremely professional, responsive, and the person you want to have on the day of your wedding. Luckily for us, we were able to book the date of our wedding many months in advance and secured our spot on the calendar. The venue caters to smaller groups, our wedding was right at about 130, which was perfect for the venue. The venue uses a web-based seating chart that allows for easy seating arrangements. Kerri will provide suggestions on what may work best, what she's seen done in the past, etc. Further, we were able to utilize the venue for bridal portraits which was a very unique spot as the venue is pretty much a blank canvas. The venue also allows you to bring in outside vendors, which was exactly what we were looking for as we didn't want the constraints like other venues. Because of Kerri, we had a stream-lined wedding with happy vendors, happy attendants and a happy couple! I could not rave enough about this spot. It is a hidden treasure that is unique to Houston that won't be a secret very long!!
