    Wedding reception

    My daughter and new son-in-law’s reception was held in the pavilion and foyers at The Arts District Mansion. It was a beautiful evening, all vendors had access in ample time, the food was delicious, the staff was so helpful and professional. All in attendance thought the venue was perfect.

    Arts District Mansion's reply:

    Thank you, Coleen! We really enjoyed hosting Melissa & John's special night! I hope everyone had a wonderful time!

    Great location for a great time!

    The Arts District Mansion team did a great job! They let our team decorate the mansion just the way we wanted it to look. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The Arts District Mansion is a wonderful place for a wedding reception!

    Amazing Venue - Went Above and Beyond

    We hosted our son's rehearsal dinner at the Arts District Mansion followed by and after party for out-of-town guests. Such a classy and historic venue, the staff went above and beyond to make our event memorable. Food was amazing (we had appetizers followed by 3 food stations and a plated dessert), champagne toast, open bar. Kevin and Dawn were so easy to work with and made the evening seamless and special.

    SO glad we hosted our wedding reception here!

    We truly had an amazing experience having our wedding reception here! Our priorities were great food/service, a large space, and somewhere that was elegant but still comfortable, and the Arts District Mansion nailed all three. The food was AMAZING! we had so many people compliment it, saying it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Dawn and her staff made it a really fun and personal process at our tasting, and helped us figure out a way to offer fun, delicious food stations to out 300 guests. The servers were all amazing and the bars never had a line!!! We truly had the best experience in this beautiful venue and I cannot think of one thing they missed the mark on. I am so thankful we made the choice to host our reception here and wish we could do it all again!

    The Arts District Mansion was simply SUPERB

    Just held our Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration at this venue and we could not be more pleased. In particular we'd like to recognize Dawn Finley, Director or Catering and Sales. Dawn was so professional and so accommodating...a dream to work with. A shout-out to staff members Arturo, Juan, and Michael These guys did an amazing job. We will definitely be recommending this venue and this team to our friends. I think that those in attendance were duly impressed.
    With regards,
    Denise and Bart Bookatz

    Best Choice for Wedding Venue!

    We stopped touring venue places when we met Dawn and toured the Arts District Mansion (Belo). It was obvious what we were getting, and they delivered every step of the way. We are shamelessly meticulous; and they not only welcomed that approach, they matched it! If you want detail-oriented, organized, intuitive, and pure care -- use Dawn and The Arts District Mansion for your wedding!

    Could not have picked a better location for our wedding!

    We had our wedding this past January and we could not have picked a better location!!

    Aside from the Arts District Mansion being beautiful, everything was top notch! The food, the accommodations, and all of the support we received throughout the process.

    Dawn was incredible to work with! She answered our million emails and made the process fun!

    Outstanding venue and catering services

    The entire day exceeded our expectations!
    The venue looked amazing and the service was impeccable. The staff is the most professional and attentive that we have seen.
    The quality of the food was outstanding. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented, from our lunch at the Belo bridal suite to the "melt in your mouth" steak at dinner.
    Our questions throughout this process were addressed in a timely manner throughout the year long process of planning. Dawn was a fabulous in every way, professional, approachable, and courteous.

    Betsy Winkle Mother-of-the-Bride

    Our daughter’s wedding reception at The Belo Mansion was fabulous from start to finish. Dawn Finley (Catering & Event Manager) worked seemlessly with our wedding planner (Rachel at As You Wish Events) to create exactly what we envisioned. The beauty, history, and hospitality at The Belo - along with the delicious food - made our wedding celebration a special & unforgettable evening!

    Great Venue with Great People

    My wife and I were married at the Belo Mansion and it was such an amazing venue. The Mansion is beautiful and all our guests had never been to a wedding in such a unique and beautiful location. We worked with Bri at the Belo Mansion and she was AWESOME! She was so responsive and helpful. We live in New York and planned our wedding from there and Bri made it so easy to plan from states away. She was always available for meetings whenever we were in town and she was always very prepared and had great ideas for ways to incorporate our wishes. I cannot say enough good things about Bri! And the Mansion itself is such a perfect venue, not to mentioned the food was some of the best food our guests had ever had at a wedding.

    We worked with Dawn at the Belo for our wedding reception and truly couldn't have been happier! We had our reception in the historic side and it was so beautiful and exactly what we were looking for - enough space for cocktails, dinner, and dancing all in different areas of the house. We were also allowed to get ready upstairs which was so lovely. The food and service were amazing - would highly recommend!

    Every experience with Bryan from start to finish was incredible. He took so much time with us with every detail, and we felt very accommodated. The tasting was supremely Fun with such variety and the food is exquisite! The passed appetizers were outstanding, especially the artichoke and the scallop! We even did pre-boxed mini pizzas at the end of the night and put our personalized sticker on it and it was a great treat for everyone! The service during the dinner and the cake/coffee service was very timely, and made our guests feel very accommodated. We received such great responses from them! Thank you Bryan and staff!

    Classic Dallas Wedding Reception

    The Belo Mansion is the best choice for a reception venue! We SO enjoyed every minute of our reception there, from the incredible food and drinks to the dedicated staff. The Belo was a perfect location for bridal portraits, our First Look and family photos - a beautiful southern backdrop in the heart of downtown Dallas. Dawn Finley and team are experts when it comes to receptions and events. Look no further than The Belo!

    Working with Jonathon Greer was an awesome experience. He helped with the dry rehearsal run as a wedding coordinator, he planned the menu, positioned photographs, candles, candelabras and other items throughout the historic mansion to make it look more like a home. He stayed on top of all the vendors and was very professional and fun to work with. The food was outstanding, particularly the appetizers at the cocktail reception, Ahi Tuna, Lamb Chops and Crab cakes!! Seafood station, Prime Rib all were excellent.

    Having the Belo as our reception location was our big splurge but it was well worth it. You cannot beat the location or the architectural beauty. The food was also great, and working with Bryan was a pleasure.

    Beautiful venue, professional and excellent staff

    Loved having a cocktail hour/reception venue that tied together one of the most historic places in Dallas with a very beautiful and practical ballroom in the back. Dawn and Kevin were so lovely to work with, and they made sure to answer all of our questions quickly throughout the planning process. Would highly recommend -- the food was amazing, too! Steak and sea bass 10/10.
