Stories

Stories is a historic, multi-level event venue in downtown Waco, Texas, offering distinctive spaces for weddings, conferences, corporate gatherings, galas, fundraisers and private celebrations. Its restored building brings several event settings together, allowing organisers to shape a gathering around one room or use different areas as the occasion develops.

The Showroom is the main space, with original hardwood floors, natural light and an open layout suited to ceremonies, dining and larger events. Above it, the Mezzanine provides a more intimate setting, with lounge seating and a built-in bar. The Brasserie, a lounge on the lower level, is designed for dinners, cocktails, live entertainment and dancing. An open-air rooftop terrace adds an outdoor option and views across downtown Waco.

The venue offers in-house dining and bar services, with menus ranging from passed appetisers to full-service meals. Tables, chairs, serviceware and layout setup are available as part of the event offering, alongside staff support and help with setup and clean-up. These features make the venue suitable for events where organisers want both a memorable setting and practical services in one location.

Couples can plan a wedding across the venue’s connected spaces, from ceremony and reception through to evening celebrations. Corporate organisers can enquire about conferences, retreats, team gatherings and formal dinners, while private hosts can book spaces for birthdays, anniversaries, showers and other milestones. Stories also has a bistro and coffee offering, but its event spaces and hospitality services are central to its offer for organisers.
