Hickory Street Annex
Industrial chicDramatic lightingModern couplesLoft receptions
Hickory Street Annex is the right answer for couples who look at a grand ballroom and feel nothing. Located in Deep Ellum — Dallas’s most creatively charged neighborhood — this converted industrial warehouse trades crystal chandeliers for exposed steel trusses and pristine walls for bare brick. The result is a space with genuine texture, history, and atmosphere that most venues can’t manufacture.
Photographically, it rewards couples willing to work with drama. The floor-to-ceiling windows create strong directional light throughout the day, and the contrast between rough industrial surfaces and refined wedding details makes for genuinely interesting images. Evening receptions under warm tungsten light against exposed brick are a proven formula here — moody, cinematic, and unmistakably Dallas.
With a 200-guest capacity for seated weddings and 250 for cocktail events, it has enough room to feel substantial without becoming impersonal. If you’re drawn to Deep Ellum’s energy and want a venue that feels like it has a personality of its own, Hickory Street Annex delivers.
Photography Notes
Exposed steel trusses, brick walls, floor-to-ceiling windows, Deep Ellum energy. Great for couples wanting dramatic lighting and architectural texture.
