They made everything so easy when booking with them! By far the nicest people- from answering all of our questions, to booking last minute (I m a bad procrastinator), affordable, being super helpful and working around our schedules to make sure we got everything done for my niece s Quinceañera. Everything was far beyond our expectations and beautiful. Don t know what we would ve done without them! 20/10 recommend for any event you have coming up!

Great little venue. Clean, friendly staff, and what we needed for a graduation celebration. Theres a small commercial kitchen, multiple stall restrooms, good amount of parking, an outside area that is fenced, and what you need for audio, etc.

We are so glad that we went with the James for our venue. They have a beautiful versatile space and 5 star customer service! Their venue can work with so many different aesthetics depending on how you decorate/ time of day. Toni and Angie are amazing and committed to helping you execute your event perfectly!

Beautiful property, wonderful owners I couldn t ask for more! Toni and Angie are so kind and fun to work with. They have a spacious courtyard that I personally love for ceremony, but it s also a great cocktail hour spot. There s a beautiful tree down the path that is another awesome outdoor ceremony spot - it offers so much shade! The inside feels modern and clean, ready for whatever design and decor people are ready to dream up. Two spacious suites for wedding party to get ready in, which is always such an amazing perk!

We hosted a large wedding reception at The James in October and everything went flawlessly because of Angie and Toni! They were so insightful, creative and helpful and worked hard to make my daughter s vision come to life. Angie and Toni went above and beyond to accommodate us in every detail. We will definitely be hosting any future events at The James!

The James is absolutely beautiful! The six acres that this venue is nestled on (right outside of Fort Worth,) makes you feel like youre in the Hill Country without actually having to drive (three hours) to get there. We have hosted several events here and the owners/management team are very professional and kind. I love the accents and decor in the private bridal suites. It is an open canvas, as far as the event space goes and at the same time... elegant without having to do much. You have the freedom to make your event, your own style. I highly recommend this lovely space for your next special event.

I was tasked by my family to find a venue to host an engagement party for my daughter and her fiancé. There were a lot of moving parts for the party with people not only coming from out of state but out of the country as well. For the record, I am not at all experienced in planning a party with the size, scope and ambition as this engagement party would require. Still, my daughter gave me a list of potential venues and I crossed my fingers as I set out to find one that could cater to our unique needs. I absolutely hit the jackpot in finding The James Event Center. From the outset their staff have been impossibly professional as they held my hand to guide me through the process. Any emails I sent were quickly and enthusiastically responded to, any questions I asked were addressed promptly and if the staff didnt have a definitive answer at the time they would look into it and come back to me as soon as they had one. I felt at home the moment they emailed me back. I felt welcomed and any concerns of mine were put to ease immediately. Their staff were infinitely helpful. I got a very personal touch from both Angela and Toni at The James. From day one they listened to what we were looking to do for the party and came back to us both with answers as well as something my daughter loved to hear; OPTIONS! Angela and Toni came up with ideas that we didnt even know existed but once we heard them we knew they were perfect for the party. That was one of the things I really loved about The James, their input enhanced the party far beyond what we first had imagined. Anything they suggested from the food to the entertainment to even the lighting, color scheme and tents seemed to compliment what we originally had in mind. No detail was overlooked because these ladies really know how to throw a great party. Another thing I really like about The James was how customizable the space can become. I have been to far too many cookie cutter venues where there is literally no differentiation between one party to the next as they use the same menu as well as setup whether youre there for a wedding, an engagement party, a graduation party or what have you. Not so at the James as the space gave us an incredible amount of flexibility to design exactly what we wanted. If we wanted more options than what were originally given to us the ladies would go out and find us more until we were satisfied. The words thats all we offer was never said by the staff of the James. I never felt like I was pressured to use people from their preferred vendors list. If we wanted to see what else was out there, Angie and Toni helped me find vendors who were specific to our event. They were invaluable to us in this capacity which was greatly appreciated. The fact that The James is so customizable made the space much more interesting. Originally we were thinking that the party should be an elegant affair which could be easily achieved inside. However, as most of the guests are coming in from major metropolitan areas and are stuck indoors all day we decided to switch gears and have the event staged outdoors. As beautiful as the interior of the James is the view in the back is heavenly. Rolling praries as far as the eye can see with a direct view of a Texas Sunset in the evening. Once I saw that view on the tour I knew the James was perfect for us. The price for our party was very reasonable as the staff went over each and every line item so there would be no confusion. I appreciated the level of detail the staff took in explaining it over as I know a lot of venues dont do this with customers who are then surprised when theyre hit with dreaded hidden costs when its time to pay the bill. Not so at the James where I was told about every amenity that came with the venue and any additional costs we were incurring. Unfortunately our event needed to be cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control: elopement. Still, I cant recommend the James enough as the level of customer service I got from Angie and Toni just set a new standard for excellence.

Everything was PERFECT throughout the whole process. From the first time we stepped into the venue I just felt comfortable. Angie and Toni both made the whole process so easy and stress free. We could could not have asked for a better wedding venue and people to work with!

We had a Celebration of Life for my sweet wife at The James. The James is a beautiful, spacious and very clean venue. The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to make sure our Celebration went as planned. I will not hesitate to use The James again if I have the need for a venue.

I hosted an event at The James. From first contact Angie and Toni were so helpful and professional. The bridal suite is beautiful! The indoor area is spacious and open so it was easy to accommodate our event. My favorite was the outdoor area. Beautiful at sunset!

The James is a MUST for any special occasion! This venue is beautiful and offers several amenities for your next event! The venue offers three options for your event: inside, courtyard or the amazing Grand Ol Lady Oak tree! I have had the pleasure of working with Angie and Tony during several weddings and a couple open houses. Their willingness to go above and beyond for each client is amazing. They really get to know the client to ensure they meet each and every need. I look forward to each event I have had the pleasure of photographing at The James Event! Pictures taken from recent weddings or event hosted at The James!

I hosted an event at The James last month and couldn t have been more pleased. Although I live in Fort Worth, it was an easy and pretty quick drive being that it s so close to the Chisholm Trail Parkway. The parking is close snd easy snd there is plenty of it. And I appreciate that the venue is such a short walk from the parking lot. I love the entry to this event center. It s welcoming but grand. Then it s wonderful to have the huge indoor space and the cozy outdoor options as well. I had a great experience working with Angie and Toni. They communicated very clearly and were there to help all my big ideas come true- and I had a lot of them Their chairs and tables are elegant but the chairs were also super easy to move around- which I really appreciated. I also loved the tall beautiful cocktail tables. I loved having our music playing throughout the venue as well. It s a clean, beautiful venue where you can really put on a dream event! I will definitely plan more events there in the future!

I spoke with a lady on the phone a week ago and she said it was $375 an hour for the venue. Went to look at it today and all the sudden it s $450 an hour and I had to rent everything. I wish places were more honest. Found a great venue at The Modern Barn in Burleson. Very honest. I suggest The Modern Barn for wedding venue, for sure!
