4 West Texas Venues with Personality
Kristin Rodin
Perhaps one of the most important decisions to make when planning a wedding is the venue. With so many considerations to keep in mind, choosing the right venue can be time consuming. For couples looking for flexibility, a unique atmosphere, and something close to home, here are four locally owned venues for weddings of any size:
Tin Top Gin
Located just down the road in Slaton, Texas, Tin Top Gin is a unique small-town gem. Featuring two venues on the property, The Pearl stands out as the favored wedding venue, accommodating up to 650 people with its indoor and outdoor spaces. While it underwent an elegant makeover, this historic building still has its original character and is perfect for a West Texas wedding.
Sophia’s Place
There’s no place like Sophia’s Place for an intimate celebration. This historic downtown building features exposed brick walls, large windows and rustic chandeliers for a modern yet rustic venue. It accommodates up to 250 people, is an open vendor location, and offers a full kitchen, bride and groom suites, and a small patio to enjoy West Texas evenings.
Historic Baker Building
For a refined and timeless celebration, look no further than the Historic Baker Building in downtown Lubbock. The building’s old-world architecture makes for a stunning backdrop and the venue features a bridal suite on the second floor, a full bar, and seats around 200 guests. Plus, with over 23 years of event planning experience, you can rest assured your wedding will go off without a hitch!
Prima Vista Venue and Event Center
Go big or go home, right? No party is too big for Prima Vista Event Center, and that includes weddings! This veteran-owned event space has a capacity for 1,000 seated guests, parking for 300 cars, and offers a full bar and lounge, private dressing rooms, and professional light and sound systems. The property welcomes outside catering, and with equipment provided to help with decorating this massive space, there’s no limit to your imagination.
While Lubbock has much to offer, these locally owned venues stand out for their unique character and accommodations. There’s no doubt you’ll have an unforgettable celebration at any of these locations!
