Perfect in every way! Had my daughter’s wedding, reception and dinner at 34 Events. Beautiful atmosphere and the food was amazing. Hope and Alex were great to work with and were so accommodating to me and all the guests. I highly, highly recommend the venue and would definitely consider booking another event in the future!

34 Events is 5 out of 5 stars!
Words cannot express how thankful we are for everything Alex, Hope and the 34 Events Staff did for us while planning for the wedding. Throughout the entire process they were incredibly helpful, patient, kind, and understanding. They are both truly phenomenal at what they do, and I cannot say that enough.
From the moment we first met until the moment we walked in on the wedding day, they immediately put us at ease and allowed us to truly enjoy every moment.
The wedding was absolutely incredible. We have received nothing but wonderful feedback about the venue, the food, and the amazing team behind it, among many other compliments.
Everything exceeded our expectations, and we could not have asked for a more perfect day.
We will always be grateful for the care and dedication poured into making our day unforgettable.

e would have a good experience based on that, but Alex and Hope really did treat us incredibly well! The food was amazing, both at the tasting and the actual wedding. The space is super cute, and they just renovated the bar shortly before our wedding. The photobooth was a big hit- we ended up getting our guests to use the photobooth as their guest book entries, too! Every detail, from the gobo projector, to the lighting, to the lanterns on the tables were beautiful and thoughtfully done. Hiring Hope as our day of coordinator was a game changer. Our wedding day was remarkably stress free, and a lot of it is because no one in the wedding party, much less myself and my husband, had to handle any of the logistics that day. I would highly recommend working with 34 Events for your wedding, school event, bat/bar mitzvah, or any other big event you have going on in your life!

I truly cannot say enough good things about 34 Events. Hope and Alex were genuinely amazing from start to finish. Our wedding was everything we dreamed it would be. If you are look...
ing to have a beautiful, elegant, intimate, yet breathtaking and equally stress-free wedding, then you should go with Hope and Alex at 34 Events.
The venue perfect. It was elegant and intimate with plenty of space for our guests to not feel crowded. The floors are gorgeous. The brick walls with the draped lighting and the suspended greenery make the venue warm and inviting. And the new bar acts as a gorgeous accent enhancing the elevated vibe of the room while also providing a great gathering area during the cocktail hour. Having the ceremony and the reception in the same room was absolutely perfect! Guests didn’t have to travel to a different location after the ceremony and everyone was able to just relax and enjoy cocktail hour while my husband and I took photos with Alex.
The food was fantastic! We chose the Chicken Marsala and the Chicken Parmesan along with the pasta bar, veggies and mashed potatoes. Our guests are still telling us how amazing the food was!
Alex was our photographer and he was truly a godsend. We used a photography group for our engagement photos and had them booked for our wedding day as well. Unfortunately, we had a terrible experience with the engagement photos and realized less than two months before our wedding that we needed a new photographer. Alex truly saved us! Not only did Alex step in to be our photographer, he far exceeded our expectations! His photos are truly stunning. I was in tears looking at them when he emailed the finished images to us (on Christmas Day, no less!) because they are so absolutely beautiful. Alex clearly has a natural talent enhanced even more by his dedication to provide the absolute best work possible. I am so grateful that he captured our wedding day. It gives me so much joy knowing that we'll be able to cherish our photos and the feelings of that day for many years to come.
Finally, the biggest reason our wedding was so amazing was Hope. I’m telling you now: pay for Hope to be your Day of Coordinator. She was quick to respond to all of my questions during the planning phase. And Hope was able to give us access the day before the wedding to help set up all of our DIY decorations. Hope was AMAZING! I knew going into the wedding day that everything was setup and in place exactly as I wanted it. Hope saved me so much stress, allowing me to only focus on getting married on the day of our wedding. And the day of the wedding Hope took such great care of myself and all of the little details. I didn’t have to worry about the schedule or timeline. Hope made sure everything was in place and everyone had what they needed. I ended up being sick with a terrible cold the day of our wedding and Hope went out of her way to do what she could to make me as comfortable as possible. Hope was absolutely fantastic. Words cannot describe how much I appreciated having her for such a big day.
Our wedding at 34 Events was absolutely perfect. And we have had numerous guests tell us the night of the wedding and in the weeks since, that our wedding is their favorite wedding they have ever been to. And three of the biggest things our guests loved were the food, the drinks, and the venue. Our wedding was perfect because of 34 Events, Alex, and Hope.

34 Events was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding. The space is beautiful and exactly what we envisioned for our day. We hosted both ou...
r ceremony and reception there for 150 guests, and it couldn’t have worked out better.
One of the biggest advantages of 34 Events is how much is handled in-house. From linens and flatware to special lighting, catering, and the bar, so much was coordinated through the venue, which made the planning process incredibly easy and stress-free. The food was prepared on-site and was delicious. We received numerous compliments from our guests.
We also utilized Hope’s Day-of Coordination services, and it was worth every penny. Hope is simply amazing. She made the entire day feel calm and effortless, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment. We are so grateful for her care, organization, and attention to detail. Both Hope and Alex were incredibly responsive throughout the process, and we genuinely enjoyed working with them.
If you’re looking for a stunning venue with outstanding service and a team that truly takes care of you, we cannot recommend 34 Events enough. We had a perfect day thanks to them.

We had our wedding here and wouldn't have it any other way. ;)
First off, the venue itself is beautiful and required very little decorating. (The Historic Downtown Plano location...
also made for a charming aesthetic.) We loved the look upon signing, but before our date, they installed new hardwood floors and an attractive new bar top that made it even better!
Every step of the way, Alex and Hope promptly answered questions and made themselves available anytime we had needs or wanted to visit the venue.
We also added Hope's day-of coordinator services, and believe me when I say THIS IS A MUST-HAVE. Thanks to her, my family and friends were able to relax and actually enjoy the wedding as she handled everything with professionalism and grace. You can tell that she truly enjoys her work and having her take care of everything on our wedding day was PRICELESS.
Another thing we loved was that we were also able to do our catering, bar, and photobooth all through 34 Events. The food is made on premise, so it's hot and fresh and the selection of items to choose from was so good it made it hard to pick. We received so many compliments on the food, and it was AMAZING not having to deal with tablecloths, dinnerware, glassware, etc., ourselves.
Overall, I cannot say enough good things about this place or of Alex and Hope. If you're thinking of having your wedding or event here, stop thinking and DO IT.

ce and dedication in making our son and daughter-in-law's wedding absolutely perfect. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond our expectations, ensuring every detail was flawless.
Their professionalism, creativity, and personalized approach made the entire experience stress-free. Alex and Hope were not only incredibly organized but also brought warmth and genuine care to every interaction. They listened to our vision, offered expert advice, and worked tirelessly to bring it all to life in a way that surpassed anything we could have imagined.
Thanks to their expertise, the wedding was seamless. Every aspect, from the décor to the timeline, was executed to perfection. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and their ability to handle last-minute changes with grace made all the difference.
A special mention goes to the food – it was absolutely amazing! Every guest raved about the delicious dishes, and it was clear that a lot of thought and care went into every plate.
We are forever grateful for the incredible service they provided, and we highly recommend 34 Events to anyone looking for a team that truly cares about making your special day unforgettable.

10/10 recommend 34 Events! If you’re looking for a wedding venue that does it all (& at a fair price), look no further. After getting engaged in Nov. of 2022, we started our search...
for a venue. We researched for days and narrowed our choices down to 3 which included 34 Events. After meeting Alex (the owner), we decided this was going to be our place. From the exposed brick, 140y/o floors, and great location, we were hooked! Alex made the entire process so easy and we utilized their day-of-coordination service which is done in-house by Hope (Alex’s wife)—talk about a dynamic duo! We utilized their in-house catering and bar services which were PHENOMENAL (huge shout out to their chef)! If you want a place that you can do your ceremony and reception without all the fuss, GO HERE! Finally, we wanted to give a huge shout out to Hope. She made our day so incredibly special and helped bring our vision to reality. If you have the budget, UTILIZE THIS SERVICE; you won’t regret it. Thank you to the entire 34 Events team for being so kind and taking such good care of us!

Hands down would recommend 34 Events to ANYONE who is looking for a beautiful venue in Plano, but especially those who are looking to plan an indoor wedding for any season. Given t...
hat we decided to plan our wedding in 2 months' time, we were SO lucky Alex and Hope miraculously had our date open, had several inclusive packages/upgrades to choose from, catering onsite, photobooth, lighting, and more. First and foremost, for peace of mind and ensure everything goes smoothly, do yourself a favor and make the investment to have the Day-of Coordinator, Hope, be your go-to gal. She is so organized, a natural leader, and flexible. The entire evening she was personally invested in making sure we had the best day of our lives, and we can't thank her enough! Second, you will NOT be disappointed by the food - all of our guests were RAVING about how this was one of the best dinners at a wedding they'd ever had (Chicken Parm and Pasta Stations). And the best part was they had options for every budget and guest count. We were thrilled with how simple, straightforward, dare I say... easy?! it was to plan a wedding on short notice and we owe it ALL... and I mean ALL to this fabulous couple who owns 34 Events. Go.book. now!

Our experience with 34 Events was stellar. We loved the look of the venue, with its exposed brick and hardwood floors, along with the lighting. When we reviewed options, we decided...
we wanted to take advantage of a complete package that included food, beverage service, lighting, photo booth, day of coordinator and appetizer. My husband and I are so glad we picked this package – it was a huge weight off of our shoulders. The food was amazing and there are enough choices for anyone to find something they’ll enjoy. Cost was reasonable for this package and so worth it. We appreciated the payment option. Service was excellent and Hope was so helpful as coordinator! For Texas weather, 34 Events is such a great option as everything is indoors. It rained and temps dropped dramatically on our wedding day, so we were so glad we chose an indoor venue. Transitions were orderly, and everything went smoothly. We’ve received so many compliments on the venue, the food, the experience, and the vibe and we ourselves had such a wonderful wedding that we really got to enjoy. I cannot recommend 34 Events enough, and I suggest the package for less worry. Hope and Alex won’t steer you wrong – communication with them was always so easy!

But back to Hope. She truly cared so much about me and my husband, and she truly wanted us to have the most incredible day. You can tell she puts in so much effort and really wants to do the best job possible for her clients. If you book this venue, BOOK THE DAY OF COORDINATOR!!! The way she set up the decorations in the venue was breathtaking, and I literally could not have imagined a more beautiful space for us and our guests to enjoy. Everything went on without any issues and we could just simply enjoy our time. We truly had the best day of our lives, with majority of the thanks going to Hope.
Hats off to this incredible venue, ran by caring and professional people who just want their clients to have indescribable memories for the rest of their lives.

I have been in event Planning for years, having done multiple Weddings, Anniversaries, and Quinceanera's; not to mention the multitude of corporate events and fundraisers that I ha...
ve produced. When I was asked to be one of one of two Event Planners for my Nephew's Wedding, naturally I said YES. We looked at several venues; but when he and his wife saw 34 Events, it was an easy decision. I could not make the initial site inspection; so, I met the owner, Alex, a few days later with a private tour. I was impressed by the space; but his professionalism, responsiveness, and clear knowledge of Event planning was what sold me. Not only was he super easy to work with; but he was flexible, organized, and extremely responsive. Coincidentally, I did not meet him again until the day of the event; so, all planning from that first meeting was via email. When we arrived for the rehearsal, he was there and prepared. He not only came through with all the promises he had made; but there was also not one single "surprise" as often is the case with venues of this nature. In fact, he went beyond what was even discussed and left me speechless with his gestures of grace and generosity. On the day of the event, he was there again for the setting up part; but then his wife, Hope, stepped in to run the event. Well, just as I thought things couldn't get any better, in was Hope with her charm, incredible personality, and spot-on focus. Throughout the night, she was always one step ahead of all of us. It was clear that she was a professional; and it just made my job all that easier. The guests wanted for nothing; and we just kept receiving raves as the night proceeded. The Staff from the Chef, the bartenders, and servers were just impeccable. In my world, I can turn any space into an amazing event; but it is people like the Staff at 34 Events who just make all the challenging work worth it. Trust me when I tell you, if you need a venue for any kind of event, look no further than Alex and Hope at 34 Events.

Absolutely wonderful! Start to finish. My daughter's wedding was May 2022. Hope and Alex are wonderful hosts. Hope in particular went the extra mile. Her team worked so hard. ...
You never even saw her team. They were so professional. The food was terrific. I call this one stop shopping. You have the venue, the food, adult beverages, lighting, ambiance, photo booth, and even table center pieces. We added more for a different look. They have alter rentals. We chose the Octagon which was just beautiful! They have a partnership with Aloft Hotel Richardson, which provided FREE shuttle to and from the event! I appreciate the professionalism and they made my daughter's day as well the parents day special and seamless. And I will say it was a good value with the entire package.

My now husband and I booked this venue in summer of 2020 and we worked with Alex and Hope for our venue, décor, catering, day of coordinator and photography. We picked 34 Events be...
cause we love the all inclusive packages they provide, rustic look, intimacy, and location that was close to the church.
We loved the convenience of having all inclusivity of the venue because it included the linens, utensils, servers, bartenders, parts of center pieces for the décor, and photo booth. They provide options for day of coordinator, catering, photography, videography so it made it easier to coordinate with fewer vendors.
We loved working with Alex and Hope because they were organized, responsive, reliable, helpful with suggestions, flexible (we had to postpone the wedding from 2021 to 2022). Being a small business, we felt much more personalized and connected with them as opposed to working with a large company.
The catering was delicious! They have many delicious options to choose from that we tried during the food tasting. We had appetizers for the guests which included, mac and cheese bites, spinach stuffed mushrooms, mozzarella bites. We had chicken cordon bleu and a prime rib station as our main course with veggies and mashed potatoes. We also added the coffee and tea bar option and the soda package. All were great!
Alex was our photographer for the wedding and he did our engagement pictures as well. He was awesome to work with and very knowledgeable. We loved that he directed us on poses for the pictures and his attention to detail for photography lighting .
Hope was our day of coordinator and she was wonderful! She is very organized, detailed oriented, and passionate about what she does. We communicated in person and through email all the details up to the day before the wedding and she was very responsive to reply. She set up and took down the décor. She also provides service to rent décor pieces. She went above and beyond with decorations, keeping to the timeline of the wedding day, and even helping with bustling my dress. She made sure we had plenty of time to eat and got drinks for us at the bar during dinner. The décor was beautiful and classy just as I had pictured for my wedding.
We definitely recommend 34 Events Catering for your wedding!!!

arge your items, a dining area with great spacing (which easily accommodated our 200 guests, but can fit up to 250 if needed), a dance floor with plenty of space down the center of the venue for people to lose all inhibitions as the rhythm of the music takes over them and not bump into things while doing so, and a photo booth area conveniently off to the side for guest access throughout the evening that does not detract from the general ambiance of the event. The venue provided wonderful mood lighting with their Edison bulbs strung across the venue and down the feature wall behind where we sat as well as uplighting for when the dancing started that set the perfect tone for a fantastic night! The menu selection has a wide variety for choices and the tasting of these items was superb (it was hard to choose just one entree)! The menu variations are exquisite with excellent combinations. Not to be biased in the matter but our food was the best meal I’ve ever enjoyed at a wedding and by the end of the night multiple guests were raving about the meal; complimenting the portion sizes and flavoring as well as asking if the venue catered to outside locations. Pro-tip, get the Chicken Parmesan. You will not regret it.
Alex and Hope were both very easy to work with: Alex as the owner of the establishment and Hope as our day-of-coordinator. They each helped make everything run smoothly and were very prompt with responses for emails/questions/concerns that we had. We loved their professionalism in everything they did and their flexibility with last minute adjustments/accommodations we needed to make. The location is very easily accessible and within walking distance of multiple parking lots/garages as well as right next to an exceptionally beautiful park where we did our Bride and Groom photos! They also recommended a hotel within a 5 min drive from the venue that had wonderful accommodations for all our guests. If you are looking for a place to book your event, then look no further because this place has everything you need and more! It is a shame we are restricted to 5 stars because they are clearly a 10 star venue!

34 Events is absolutely amazing! If you are looking for a stunning venue with excellent food and incredible staff this is the place for you! First of all the in house catering is i...
ncredible. We had a chicken parm dinner and our guests are still talking about how good the food was. The building itself is absolutely stunning. The red brick walls, hardwood floors, string lights and greenery chandelier are so beautiful that pictures don't do it justice. Finally, the staff is so friendly and easy to work with. The owner, Alex, is a great communicator and was so helpful. We actually had to postpone our event and Alex was very flexible and understanding.
Have your wedding at 34 Events, I promise you'll regret it if you don't!

g and easy to interact with. The venue is perfect for both the wedding and reception. Haggard Park just down the road provides a perfect backdrop for romantic photos. The price is extremely reasonable. Due to a last minute scheduling issue due to COVID and party size, we couldn't have the rehearsal dinner where we originally planned. Alex was flexible and allowed us to book the rehearsal dinner since we were already doing the rehearsal there.
Alex is also a professional photographer and he was stellar. We couldn't be happier with our experience! Priced fair just a beautiful venue!

The historic charm of 34 Events set the ambiance that we were looking for when we were searching for a venue for our wedding, but we got so much more. Alex & Hope are amazing and ...
every detail was handled perfectly. There staff was gracious and courteous to all of the guests and we had so many compliments on the food that was served, and it was all prepared by their chef in their own kitchen. The referrals that they were able to offer were invaluable as well. On a scale of one to ten, 34 Events is a 10+++.
We could not have been more pleased!

As the mother of the bride, I was very involved in the wedding planning for my daughters wedding. From the moment we toured 34Events, we were sold that this was the perfect venue....
Alex and his team were amazing. Food was excellent and guests enjoyed both the appetizers and dinner. Hope was the on-site planner and she did an amazing job setting up the venue, decorations, and attention to detail. On the day of, she quickly worked through challenges with with our other vendors and made everything run very smoothly. Alex was the photographer and I felt like he was very attentive to capture every detail. We all feel like Alex and his team were the dream team when it comes to the wedding chaos. Thanks for a wonderful event.

We had our wedding reception at 34 Events on Saturday & we couldn’t have picked a better place. I fell in love with this venue when I first visited. Alex, the owner, promised he to...
ok care of his brides & he delivered on his promise. In my months of planning if I had any questions I’d send Alex an email & he would respond quickly. If I wanted to see the space again as I was planning décor he was always willing to meet me there so I could take a look. Alex was able to help offer recommendations of vendors as well which was great. In addition, I hired Hope as a day of coordinator & that was the best decision I could have made. I literally didn’t have to stress about anything on my wedding day – Hope took care of it & ensured all of my vendors arrived on time. In addition, she was super responsive & helpful when I was planning timelines, etc. My guests loved the space as well & can’t stop talking about how great the food was! Big thanks to Alex & Hope for doing everything they could to ensure I had the wedding reception I always dreamed of - & it was just that!

d my expectations in every aspect. We met with Alex (the owner) several times prior to making our final decision and he was incredibly patient with us and always took the time to explain all the details. They did everything with extreme professionalism and class from the very beginning. Working with them was easy, they were always available for questions and totally polite. We had 34 Events handle our ceremony and reception which included tables, chairs, linens, serving pieces, catering, wait staff, cleanup and Photo Booth. They flipped the room quickly and discretely, served our guests with smiles, and took care of things as promised. Their catering is very high quality and we have gotten so many compliments on how delicious and plentiful the food was at our wedding. We highly recommend working with Alex and the 34 Events team for your next event!

Alex and the other staff at 34 Events did an amazing job for my wedding! The space is beautiful, photography was great (we hired Alex and a second photographer that he recommended)...
, and Hope was so helpful and thoughtful in keeping the day enjoyable and taking care of some things that could create added stress. Alex always made himself available to for questions and was flexible with us and the different things we wanted. After the wedding it took quite a while for us to get out pictures and we never received the complimentary photo album that he promised, but those are little things. I highly recommend 34 Events as a wedding&reception venue.

tos as well as our wedding photos and they turned out gorgeous. Hope is the appointment coordinator and was also amazing because she helped the whole day and night go smoothly as well as putting all of us at ease not having to stress about anything. The venue is beautiful and very intimate and we also loved how everything was in one place. We had our ceremony in the beginning of the night and then they flipped the room to turn the space into the reception area after the ceremony which was so convenient that no one had to drive to another venue for the reception. Overall we loved everything so much and we are so thankful that we found this venue! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an affordable and classy venue to hold a reception or ceremony!

We hired Hope, the day of coordinator, to help with decorations and coordinating our year worth of planning in one day, and I couldn’t have done this without her. Between Alex and Hope, this beautiful venue, and the food, our wedding completed the day of our dreams!

Alex and his team are a group of amazing people! They all went above and beyond to make our wedding day very very special and so beautiful! From the very first day we met with Alex...
, we knew this was the perfect place for our day. Alex was always very professional and friendly, and made us feel very comfortable! He was always available and answered all of our questions promptly, although I know I was an annoying bride, he was always very kind and responsive! Alex and his venue comes with many optional vendors, which makes it very easy and stress free! Our venue package came with wedding photography, engagement shoot, catering, photo booth, tables/chairs, table ware, centerpieces, water/tea...etc. It’s an amazing venue, and offers many things to make the planning easier! We had an amazing experience with Alex as our photographer! Highly recommend him as your wedding day photographer, and vendor for your venue!!! I wish I could give them more than 5 stars, because they helped make our day much more special!!! I’m forever grateful with Alex and his team!!!

ad both our ceremony and reception at 34 Events. There are so many cool places to take photos just within a block of the venue! Hope and Alex made our wedding planning process so stress free and easy. The venue provides so much that it makes it easy to plan your wedding and keep everyone on the same page without getting overwhelmed.
Alex is a great photographer and helped us make sure we had a variety of poses and backgrounds for our photos. He was very flexible with meeting times for when we did our engagement photos. He has invested so much in this business and he is really easy to work with.
I could not have made it through my wedding without Hope!! She is the day of coordinator that works with the venue. She an invaluable resource because she has access to the venue. Since she works with the venue she has seen so many weddings there and can help you decide what works best in that space. She went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I had everything we needed and kept us on track for the timeline. If you want a stress free & flawless wedding, you NEED her!
The catering service was AMAZING. Everyone commented on how excellent the food was when I talked to them after the wedding. We had passed appetizers as well as dinner served. The photo booth was a huge hit and everyone I talked to said it was one of their favorite parts since they got to take home the photos. The bar service did an excellent job and everyone was very happy with the drinks that were poured. The colored lights really transformed the room from an elegant dinner to a fun place to dance the night away.
If you want a good idea of what your wedding will look like, I recommend watching their videos online or going by the venue on the weekend just to see what the venue looks like with an active event. You can stand outside and see the event without bothering the event. This establishment is an excellent value and is easy to work with.
If there is ever a bad review for this establishment it should be taken with a grain of salt because it very likely wrong.

We cannot say enough good things about 34 Events as a wedding venue. If you have yet to tour the venue, you must. It is the most amazing space with exposed brick and beautiful ligh...
ting. Since our wedding day, every discussion I’ve had with a wedding guest included them commenting three things - how beautiful the venue was, how amazing the food was, and how smoothly the day went. Let’s talk about the food quick. At first we were nervous about using an in-house caterer but when we had our food tasting we honestly could not decide on which option to go with because they were all fantastic. It’s really a toss up if I got more compliments on my wedding dress or our food, and believe me my wedding dress was beautiful. Food = 10/10. Also - if you are a bride and you don’t want to have any stress at all on your wedding day - HIRE Hope (the day of wedding coordinator). Our cake didn’t show up to our wedding until about 15 minutes before our ceremony and I didn’t know any differently because Hope just handled it. She was a literal lifesaver. She fed our wedding party while we were getting ready, organized our ceremony, did all of the vendor contacts the week of the wedding, and most importantly she kept me calm. Without Hope I would have felt the wedding day stress and I honestly believe I was able to enjoy my day because she was there to handle everything. Working with Hope and Alex (owner) is a breeze. They are so accommodating and friendly and really care that your big day is everything you wish it to be. Believe me, that’s hard to find in a wedding space around DFW. Thank you, Alex and Hope - we couldn’t have asked for a better venue!

d work with us and make the process easier. Alex gave us an affordable package that included so much of what we needed. It took a lot of stress off of planning from afar. The venue is charming, and Alex is receptive to your ideas for setup, decor, and menu. The day of was great, and our friends and family seemed to really enjoy the venue.
One note to mention - It would be helpful to have some kind of event order to help keep track of the nitty gritty details and make sure client and venue are on the same page.
Alex also took our wedding photos - we love them! He captured some lovely shots and even brought in a second photographer to help catch different angles and moments.

34 Events was the absolute best venue for our wedding reception. I knew from the moment I walked in that it was THE place. With the rustic (yet not over done) decor, the romantic a...
mbience, and people helping; it was seriously the best part of the wedding. We held 200 comfortably in there having 2 bars, a dance floor, photo booth, and food buffet. Growing up in Plano, it made it special to be in downtown Plano in an historical building. Alex, the owner, was so accommodating, professional, and open to all our ideas. He made planning the reception easy by helping us with all the small things that no one thinks about. The reception would not have been as fabulous as it was without Hope, 34 Events’ DOW coordinator. She went above and beyond in her creativity and her help with everything. She was absolutely 110% worth it and so thoughtful. Again, I can’t say enough amazing things about 34 Events, the actual venue, and the helpful staff. Thank you, Alex, Hope, and the 34 Events staff for making the best day of my life absolutely perfect!

Our wedding was more than we ever could have hoped for and it's all thanks to Alex and Hope. Alex is a talented and professional photographer and business owner. We knew as soon as...
we saw the venue and met Alex that we wanted to have our reception there. A couple months before our wedding we realized we needed a coordinator and that's when Hope stepped in to help. She was worth every penny and we could not have done it without her. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing, she put our minds as ease and took care of everything. She took my very vague vision of how I wanted to venue to look and ran with it. It turned out so beautiful. Our package was for one photographer and a couple days before our wedding Alex said he was going to bring a second shooter along. Our engagement photos were incredible and Alex was fun to shoot with. Both Alex and Hope were extremely accommodating. They also had great recommendations for other vendors which made our decisions and planning much easier. W can't recommend 34 Events enough!
