The Report:
Built in 1903, Station 3 is a historical Houston landmark. Known as “Stonewall,” it was one of Houston’s original fire stations. While it still features original brick, wood floors, concrete beams, and hand carved exterior stone work, much of the building underwent an extensive renovation to make it a modern wedding venue.
Woman Getting Married Says:
I really like the vibe of this wedding venue, and you CANNOT beat the downtown Houston location. I also love how much information they provide on their website. Take it from me…when a wedding venue is as transparent as possible about what they provide, they are definitely going to be easier to deal with than others.

Hi! Thanks for letting us know. We will reach out to them for updated info.
Hello! I was on the venue search journey the past couple of months and the info above is not updated. Its pricier (unfortunately) and their bar pricing is REALLY expensive. Had to pick somewhere else. However, it is beautiful!
Hey! I just wanted to let you know that I went to a wedding here (Station 3 in Houston) and the venue’s air conditioning did not work. It gets hot in the summer in Texas – it was so sad for the bride and groom… of course they were happy but the whole event was cut short and it was terribly hot. Like sweating bullets. I would never have an event here after that experience.
