We had a relatively short engagement (about 8 months) and shopped for venues for a good while before deciding on Sunset Oaks. They try are the best for your money, so hands on and they are so transparent about their pricing and what they offer! Their decor closet is extensive! They had so much you can borrow for your big day for free and it was all actually cute/current things. The venue itself is beautiful not too rustic or modern a perfect canvas to hold your wedding day! We loved working with Coby she was so proactive and helpful and the big day went off perfectly.

We had a lovely wedding at Always Timeless Barn. Barbara was a wonderful host and her team worked hard in the background to make sure everything was as my husband and I wanted. The team was quick to set up and keep the area clean. The venue was immaculate and our guests enjoyed the natural beauty of the ranch during our springtime wedding. The bridesmaids loved getting ready in the bridal suite of the living space. It made for super cute getting-ready pictures before the ceremony. A great benefit of Always Timeless Barn is the flexibility to DIY various elements, so the team set up our indoor ceremony space early so that my family and I were able to put up faux flowers and such on the aisle chairs and archway. Would recommend Always Timeless Barn for your wedding!

Olde Dobbin Station

Montgomery, TX
  • Up to 450 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

Your Something Old & New! Olde Dobbin Station will provide a unique experience for its clients through the use of old structures built in the early 1900’s, restored to their original look and feel, while adding a vintage touch. The buildings were initially used by oil companies as a “pumping station” and later became a famous place of fellowship for those in the community due to its Artesian Water Well. It became the community “swimming hole” according to many of the locals and remains a historical marker for the community and its residents. Olde Dobbin has recently renovated its final structure and officially has made it into a chapel. The “chapel” was initially used in the late 1800’s as a pump house for the nearby trains' steam.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Space for a large guest list
  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Private area for the wedding party

Venue considerations

My husband and I had our wedding anniversary party at Olde Dobbin Station. You just can’t go wrong with this venue. The staff is knowledgeable, caring and dedicated. They are able to answer questions that will help you make the best decisions for your event. Everyone works well with the other vendors and that makes for a very smooth event experience. The venue itself is full of authentic history that you can actually see for yourself with the arches and the exposed steel beams. That type of aesthetic is not easy to replicate and gives ODS a distinct look and feel all of its own. The chapel is very versatile. There is not a right or wrong way to set up the space for a wedding ceremony. Added bonus: it also has a groom’s suite! Even the bridal suite is rich in history and as an original building, has been dedicated to brides and their wedding party as the ultimate place to get ready. The venue grounds are well kept and manicured. This leads to numerous outdoor locations for natural light photos. Not to mention, an outdoor ceremony location. This venue has it all! You will be very happy with your choice!

The Barnhill staff was so professional and our day was absolutely perfect! Alex did an outstanding job making certain to use the ballroom space efficiently. We had 130 guests, a full band with ample room for dancing, a full bar, cake and gift tables, and a buffet line. The reception was just perfect. The ceremony was in the Theatre which was accomodating for our limited mobility guests. Everything about the day was truly perfect.

I'm overjoyed to have chosen Ashelynn Manor for my wedding on August 31, 2024. From the moment I met Pam at the Bridal Extravaganza, I knew I'd found the perfect venue. The stunning pictures and warm welcome sealed the deal. We pulled off our dream wedding in less than a year! If you're on a tight timeline and planning a wedding in six months or less, Ashelynn Manor is definitely worth considering. We started looking at the venue in March and had the wedding in August. Pam and Gazi's down-to-earth, personable approach made me feel at ease. Their exceptional customer service and all-inclusive package sold me. With top-rated vendors and seamless planning, I could focus on enjoying my special day. Ashelynn Manor's beauty and amenities exceeded expectations. The venue's decorations were perfect, and I loved the photo booth, 360, and fireworks – our guests raved about them! Pam's outgoing personality, family-oriented approach, and availability for questions made planning stress-free. I highly recommend Ashelynn Manor for an unforgettable wedding experience. Thank you, Pam, Gazi, and the Ashelynn Manor team, for making my dream wedding a reality!
