30 Dallas Wedding Venues That Are One-Of-A-Kind [2023]

Walking down the aisle of a unique Dallas wedding venue has been my dream since I was a little girl. Growing up in Texas and going to college in Fort Worth, I’ve always held a special place in my heart for Dallas.

Dallas is the perfect blend of uptown and downtown nightlife, as well as that authentic western feel that Texas is all about. Choose an uptown venue for trendy hot spots, a downtown venue for a classic vibe, or a venue outside of the city limits for something off the beaten path.

We’ve reached out to two top Dallas wedding planners for their favorite one-of-a-kind wedding venues in Dallas for your unique celebration. While choosing your venue can feel like the first step of a never-ending to-do list, PartySlate is here to help. Finding your perfect Dallas wedding venue has never been easier.
