Arlington Hall at Turtle Creek

As a wedding planner, you can't beat Arlington Hall! It's such a gorgeous venue with endless possibilities, exquisite food and exceptional service. One of our favorite places to work in Dallas by far! Most recently we worked with Alex and my clients were over the moon happy from start to finish.

The team at Arlington hall truly made our wedding the special day it was. The food is absolutely five-star restaurant quality and the service is everything you would expect from a luxury venue. We had Dana as our bridal captain and she thought of EVERYTHING before we could even think to ask! Fernando and the rest of the foodservice team were so great too. Our entire family and friend group commented on how attentive everyone was and of course the venue itself it just gorgeous. We used some of the outdoor space for the cocktail hour and the fountain area is so classic. Arlington Hall is a great place to have all of our pictures and wedding memories and we are so happy that we used them for our wedding. We did both our ceremony and reception on-site, which made it easy and seamless for our guests. I also want to mention that we hosted this event during the COVID-19 era, and I felt so comfortable with how seriously their team took cleanliness and safety of us and our guests. Truly a perfect location!

My husband and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at Arlington Hall. From beginning to end they were extremely helpful. Upon our first meeting, we were simply gathering information and comparing venues. When throwing out different times of year we were thinking about having our big day, the Director of Catering and Planning (then Mary, now Alex) suggested wedding dates and times to make sure we stayed within our budget yet had the day of our dreams. While we were excited to plan our day, my husband and I did somewhat procrastinate as we started planning right before the holidays, but when we finally did kick it in gear (the week in between Christmas and New Years) Arlington Hall was there and waiting! We often said that we were sure we drove the staff there crazy with our calls and emails, but they always appeared willing to answer any questions we may have and put us at ease. All in all, we planned our wedding from beginning to end in 2 1/2 months tops and it was truly the most beautiful day of our lives. The day before our wedding, the City unexpectedly came out and irrigated the land that we planned to have our ceremony the very next day...holes everywhere! Alex jumped in and made sure there was beautiful turf to cover the space and with no additional charge to us. Finally, the bridal attendant (better known as the "fairy godmother") is truly worth her weight in gold! Whenever my husband or I literally had a thought or desire (ex. water, champagne, flats!) she was there as if she were in our head! The staff, the venue, the food...all of it amazing! You will not be disappointed!

If you are looking for them to take responsibility when things go south don't count on them I am the father of the Bride. My daughter's wedding took place this past November of 2018. They recommended that we get a tent erected to accommodate our guests for the reception. They promised that the tent can be made weather proof - in the sense, in case of rain we won't be interrupted. It costed ovr $18K and over $50K for food. The tent was put up without the side panel to prevent the rain. At least they had the top. The tent construction is done by just one firm. They had contracted with that company to build. But was not adequately supervised, to ensure that the side panels were put up. The invoice had a line item for the side panels and also in the contract with the tent company. thunderstorms rolled in as predicted for few days during the reception. We contracted them to give two wine pours. First pour was done and the main course was being served the thunderstorms came and disrupted the rest of the program. No second pour took place. They did try to serve food inside, but quite a many of the guests could not eat because it was plated dinner needing fork & knife and there weren't enough tables. The $18K+ for the tent was a total waste also nearly $8K of decorations & accoutrements were a waste. They took no responsibility. They pretty much said SCAT happens and blamed us saying the contract was between us and the tent company. The manager who later claimed to have been at the wedding but didn't even bother to introduce himself - quite the liar. It is a den of thieves, as we found out. While we were discussing how they would compensate us for the economic damages, they put through a charge for $37+K thru the credit card company, fraudulently charging my credit card we used to put up the deposit a year earlier. Always cancel your card after the deposit. I mistook them to be honorable, but they are frauds & thieves. We did not even get a chance to review the final bill. Additionally they did not even return the security deposit of $1,000 they took a year earlier - which was supposed to be returned. I am talking to Dallas county prosecutor's office to press charges.
