“So Red Ridge is a 10/10! Bethany and Chris are seasoned pros. Their preparation and organization paid off for the wedding. They kept the bride and groom on schedule, ensured their choices were followed for every option, and Cari got ensured their vision came to life. This is truly an all inclusive venue with so many beautiful additions. They mentioned the sunset would be beautiful and the views on the hill would be stunning. Every view was gorgeous both inside and out, and honestly they undersold the looks. The pictures are amazing. Bethany oversaw everything to ensure a magical evening. The staff working on the night of the wedding were so prepared. The food was fantastic and plentiful. The bar under the covered patio created such a fun environment. They encouraged the bride and groom to create specialty cocktails which added a fun flair. One special touch was to respond very late at night to find the missing wedding certificate which was extremely appreciated! We would trust them again and highly recommend them to anybody.”

“Ashelynn Manor was the perfect venue for our wedding day. The team communicated very minimally but was clear and covered every detail we needed to know, which made the planning process easier. The property itself is stunning and the price point is hard to beat compared to other venues we looked at. Our guests loved the beautiful space and had an amazing time. One thing to note is that we wouldn't recommend their bartending services, our guests were served warm champagne drinks and the white wine wasn't chilled when it should have been. I highly recommend the caterer on their list, T&M! My sister’s baking company, Wally and Whisk, made my beautiful cake also definitely recommend! Overall, we're happy with the venue itself!”

Olde Dobbin Station 
Rating: 4.8 (6 reviews)
Montgomery, TX
  • Up to 530 guests

Your Something Old & New! Olde Dobbin Station provides a unique experience for couples with restored early-1900s structures that blend an authentic historic feel with a vintage touch. Originally, oil companies used the buildings as a pumping station. Later, the property became a famous place of fellowship for the community due to its artesian water well. It even served as the local swimming hole for residents and remains an important historical marker today. Olde Dobbin also features a beautifully renovated chapel. This unique space originally served as a late-1800s pump house for nearby steam trains, but today it offers a one-of-a-kind setting for your ceremony.

  • Space for a large guest list
  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Private area for the wedding party

Awarded Best of Zola
“My husband and I had our wedding anniversary party at Olde Dobbin Station. You just can’t go wrong with this venue. The staff is knowledgeable, caring and dedicated. They are able to answer questions that will help you make the best decisions for your event. Everyone works well with the other vendors and that makes for a very smooth event experience. The venue itself is full of authentic history that you can actually see for yourself with the arches and the exposed steel beams. That type of aesthetic is not easy to replicate and gives ODS a distinct look and feel all of its own. The chapel is very versatile. There is not a right or wrong way to set up the space for a wedding ceremony. Added bonus: it also has a groom’s suite! Even the bridal suite is rich in history and as an original building, has been dedicated to brides and their wedding party as the ultimate place to get ready. The venue grounds are well kept and manicured. This leads to numerous outdoor locations for natural light photos. Not to mention, an outdoor ceremony location. This venue has it all! You will be very happy with your choice!”
