    I love this space and those who run it! Everything is beautifully restored with gorgeous touches. It’s the perfect venue for any event, including the Austin Avenue Art Fair.

    Such a beautiful venue to host an event. Lauren & Lexi were so easy to work with. Food was great and we didn't run out of items. Highly recommend hosting an event here.

    Anthem Stories is an absolutely amazing place in downtown Waco to host an indoor wedding, or a roof top wedding. Lauren, the venue manager, and her team are absolutely amazing and the kind of people you want to work with. I would highly recommend booking your wedding here!

    Anthem Stories is truly a gem! From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, offering a perfect blend of elegance and charm that creates an unforgettable atmosphere.What truly sets Anthem Stories apart, though, is the legendary level of service provided by their team. Planning a wedding comes with countless moving parts, and our schedule seemed to change every time we blinked. Yet, the team at Anthem Stories handled every adjustment with grace, flexibility, and unwavering professionalism. Their ability to adapt while keeping everything seamless made all the difference.Every detail was attended to with care, and they went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. Their outstanding communication and genuine dedication made us feel so valued and supported.If you're searching for a venue that combines breathtaking beauty with world-class service, look no further than Anthem Stories. They turned our wedding dreams into a reality, and we will forever be grateful! Highly recommended!My wife and I would like to extend a personal thank you to Lauren Lund & Lexi Sharp for putting up with our barrage of questions and changes.P.S." I refer to everyone as chef because it's a sign of respect "Thank you Chefs#86

    Lauren and Lexi at Anthem Stories were amazing to work with to create an evening of celebration with family and friends for a wedding reception for over one hundred. The space itself lends the perfect ambiance with minimal decoration to mingle while nibbling incredible appetizers. Thank you so much for the perfect evening!

    Beautiful venue. Very classy. Serving staff was efficient and nice. This would be a great place for a wedding, reception, or any other event that you want a little bit of class. Wonderful wide staircase. Wood floors that would be great for dancing. Highly recommend.
