As an interfaith wedding rabbi and officiant, I have had the privilege of officiating weddings in many memorable venues over the years. What made Hickory Street Annex stand out was its remarkable sense of authenticity.From the moment guests arrived, it was clear that this was not a venue designed to imitate industrial character. It is industrial character. The historic buildings, soaring windows, exposed brick, steel trusses, and original architectural details create a setting that feels genuine, distinctive, and full of personality.As someone who spends a great deal of time observing how a venue shapes a wedding experience, I appreciated the balance Hickory Street Annex achieves between history and flexibility. The space has a strong identity, yet it remains incredibly adaptable. Whether a couple envisions a romantic celebration, a modern gathering, or something entirely their own, the venue provides a beautiful canvas while maintaining its unique sense of place.What I remember most was the light. The massive factory windows fill the space with natural light throughout the day, creating an atmosphere that feels bright, welcoming, and alive. As evening arrives and the city lights begin to appear beyond the windows, the venue takes on an entirely different but equally beautiful character.The courtyard and views of downtown Dallas add another layer to the experience. Guests enjoy the feeling of being close to the city while still gathering in a space that feels private and tucked away. It creates a wonderful combination of urban energy and intimate celebration.The staff was professional, attentive, and a pleasure to work with throughout the event. Their experience and commitment to hospitality helped ensure that everything unfolded smoothly and allowed the couple and their guests to simply enjoy the celebration.I would gladly recommend Hickory Street Annex to any couple looking for a wedding venue that combines historic character, abundant natural light, and authentic Dallas charm. It is a place where history, architecture, and celebration come together to create an experience that feels both timeless and uniquely personal.

I just played a wedding at this place and it was really wonderful! Great acoustics, beautiful classy interior, a really cool 360° view of downtown. Seemed like there was plenty of close parking. And last but certainly not least, the people who work there were all very nice and very polite! Definitely worth checking this place out!

Beautiful venue not only for weddings but for any kind of work event, corporate event, party, marketing launch et cetera — it is available. This was for Windup Watch Fair March 2026, it provided a great backdrop for our SEIKO clock product. A few thousand folks came through, well organised outside in pulsing people through. Ask for owner Gary.

Planning our wedding from out of state could’ve been stressful, but working with Michelle at Hickory Street Annex made everything incredibly smooth. She is extremely responsive, flexible, and always clear in her communication. Her support took so much pressure off the process—we always felt informed and taken care of. The venue itself is beautiful and unique, which our guests loved. Michelle truly made the experience exceptional and helped make our special day the best night ever!

Hickory Street Annex is the perfect wedding venue! Michelle is nice, always has the answers and quick to respond. Her curated list of vendors accelerates the learning curve. Each vendor she recommended performed at the highest level. I loved the venue; huge windows, comfortable / relaxing and numerous touches that provide a home feel. I am looking for a reason to return.

I recently had my wedding at Hickory Street Annex and it could not have been more perfect! From the initial tour/booking through the wedding day, everything was better than I could’ve hoped for! Working with Michelle was awesome, she was super accommodating and happy to answer any and all questions that arose during the planning process. The space itself is phenomenal! It has a unique vibe that is still very much Dallas centric. We had multiple guests and vendors comment to us how cool of a space it was. If I had to redo the day I would pick Hickory Street Annex every time!
