Feel free to decorate the space for your event! However, please note that you are not allowed to use tape, nails, glue, or anything that may cause permanent damage or discoloration to our walls, floors, ceilings, etc.

We are pleased to provide five 8-foot plastic rectangle tables and 50 black folding metal chairs for your event at no additional cost. However, you must return them to their original storage location precisely as you found them. Our supply room, located behind the kitchen, is where these items are conveniently stored. Failure to return the tables and chairs to the supply room in the exact same way you found them will result in a $200 fee. Alternatively, you may bring your own tables and chairs to avoid this rule.

Yes, you are allowed to hire a DJ for your event. However, if your event is booked in the evening, you must ensure that all music stops by 11pm and that the venue is vacated by 12am.

Your booking includes four reserved parking spaces located right in front of our venue. These spaces can be used to park up to four vehicles or as outdoor space for extra seating, a bounce house, or food vendors. The four parking spaces are guaranteed. However, we cannot guarantee that the rest of the reserved parking spots will be available for your guests, as the majority of the reserved parking lot belongs to another business. If that business requires their spaces, you will not be able to park in them. Your guests must park on the street if the rest of the reserved parking lot is not available.

Yes, absolutely! You can book a tour with us by clicking "15 minute tour for Appreciation Venue".

If you're not ready to take a tour yet, our website has loads of pictures and a cool virtual tour. It's almost like being here in person, and it could help you decide before booking.

Yes, kids are allowed in our spaces.

As much as we love animals, pets are not allowed at any of our studio or event space locations. If we find evidence of a pet being in the space, we will charge a $500 fee.

Please note that this venue does not have an elevator. The second floor can only be accessed via stairs. The main event space area is located on the ground level, and there is a restroom available on the first floor. To access the secondary restroom and additional room, you will need to use the stairs to reach the second floor.

The Appreciation Venue is 1800 sqft, with 1450 sqft on the first floor and an additional 350 sqft upstairs. The upstairs room can be used as a photo booth, storage area, VIP section, or bridal room.

Yes, there are two restrooms at the venue. One is located on the first floor and the other is upstairs on the second floor. Both restroom are accessible for your event.

Early entry into the venue is prohibited. You will only be allowed to enter the space at your official event start time. Set up and breakdown activities should be completed within your scheduled event time reservation.

All cleanup must be completed during your scheduled event period. This is necessary because we may have another event booked immediately after yours or the following morning.

Our venue is situated in a quiet area with low traffic in the Dallas Design District. Ample street parking is available. There is a large reserved parking lot in front of the venue, but only four of the reserved spots belong to us. These four spots are the only ones we can guarantee for your event, which you can use for parking or as outdoor space. We cannot guarantee parking in the rest of the reserved lot for your event, as it belongs to the large office tenant next to us. If your event is scheduled after standard business hours or on the weekend, you might be able to permit guests to park in the lot. However, if the office tenant is using the lot, guests cannot park there, as they may be towed.

Please note that we don’t provide any monetary refunds in case of cancellations. However, we offer credits that you can use toward booking a future event. The credit amount is determined by how far in advance you cancel your booking: If you cancel 60 days or more prior to the event, we will grant you 100% of your payment as credit towards a future event. If you cancel between 59 and 30 days prior to the event, we will grand you 50% of your payment as credit towards a future event. If you cancel between 29 and 15 days prior to the event, we will grand you 25% of your payment as credit towards a future event. If you cancel less than 15 days prior to the event, no credit will be granted. Please note that these credits are only valid for future events and cannot be converted into cash refunds. The credits will expire after 180 days if not used.

Our policy does not allow direct rescheduling of events. If you wish to change the date of your event, you will need to cancel your current booking first. Upon cancellation, you will receive a credit according to our cancellation policy, which you can then use towards booking a new date. Please refer to our cancellation policy FAQ for more information on our credit system.

Our kitchen appliances may be used to warm up food, but you are not allowed to cook food as we want to avoid oil splatters.

Proof of insurance is required at least 7 days prior to your event. The specific event requirements will be included in your confirmation email after booking. You are responsible for obtaining general liability insurance that protects our space from damages, as well as additional coverage based on what you plan to do and provide during the event. For instance, if you will have alcohol at your event, you must add insurance covering alcohol-related incidents.

Our maximum occupancy for the property is 75 people.

Yes, you can! We offer a flexible payment option where you can pay a 50% deposit to reserve your event date. This ensures that the date is held exclusively for you. The remaining 50% of the total event cost is then due one week prior to the scheduled event date, allowing for a smooth finalization of all event arrangements. This split-payment structure is designed to ease the financial commitment and help you manage your event budget efficiently.

We appreciate your intent to maintain cleanliness! However, the cleaning fee is mandatory and cannot be waived. This fee covers the cost of professional cleaners who will vacuum, mop, and restock items to ensure the venue is pristine for every event. While we have professional cleaners, renters are still expected to take out their own trash and leave the space in a respectable manner - exactly how they found it. This policy helps us maintain a high standard of cleanliness and readiness for all our guests.
