The Tower Club is one of Dallas’ premier wedding venues, and we love working there! The mix of classic ballroom space and the modern urban views out of the 360°windows create a unique feeling for events of all kinds. We chatted with the Tower Club’s top-notch private events staff, Vicki Welch and Ali Chandler, to learn more!

Tell us about the history of the Tower Club
Tower Club is located on the 48thfloor of Thanksgiving Tower. The club opened in 1982 with the grand opening of the facility and has become a permanent resident of the iconic tower. We’re a city club, which means we function similarly to a country club but with a strong urban and business focus for our members. We were one of the first clubs in Dallas with an open membership policy, fighting both racial and gender discrimination in the community.

What makes the Tower Club different from other venues?
Our level of service and attention to detail are a key part of our allure, allowing us to execute a couple’s every wish and making their dreams a reality – effortlessly! We serve up the best food in Dallas, featuring diverse cuisines ranging from American to Asian to modern. We have a wide range of epicurean delights included on customizable menus prepared by the Club Corp executive chef. The Tower Club offers an exclusive, one-of-a-kind experience, because we’re a private member club – the only way guests can experience our facilities is if they’re attending an event.

Care to share a sweet story from a recent event?
We have two! We recently had a wedding, and the couple was so special to us because they got engaged at Tower Club as well. The staff already knew them and their whole family because of the proposal. So they got to say yes and I do at the same place!
Our team also loves going above and beyond to make our couples happy. Recently, we worked with a bride who let it slip during a tasting that she loved Ranch dressing. But not just any Ranch dressing – her favorite comes from Wing Stop. As a surprise, one of our staff members went to Wing Stop on the wedding day to get the bride her favorite dressing – she was so surprised, and she and her husband had a great laugh with our staff!
