About The Kalla

Inspired by the Beauty of the Calla Lily

The name "The Kalla" is rooted in the elegance of the calla lily, a flower associated with faith, purity, and new beginnings. In the heart of Keller, we designed this venue to be more than a building. It is a sanctuary where families gather, celebrate, and create history together.

Our 15,000-square-foot facility on three scenic acres combines classic architecture with contemporary luxury. From the manicured outdoor ceremony grounds to the crystal-adorned ballrooms, every detail is maintained to the highest standard.

  • Personal Connection: You are not just a date on a calendar. We take time to understand your story and specific needs.
  • Transparent Communication: No hidden fees or surprises. Open, honest planning from day one.
  • Community Roots: We are a proud local Keller business. Every guest is treated like a neighbor.
  • Excellence in Detail: From the grounds to the ballroom lighting, every element is held to the highest standard.

Vendor Freedom

Your Day, Your Vendors

The Kalla proudly offers an open vendor policy. We believe your event should reflect you, not our preferred list. You are free to hire any licensed and insured caterer, photographer, florist, DJ, or production team that fits your vision and budget.

While we maintain a wonderful Trusted Vendor List you can draw from, that list is a resource, not a requirement. This level of flexibility is rare among event venues in the DFW area, and it is something our clients tell us they value deeply.

All vendors must provide a current, valid certificate of insurance and be confirmed with our team at least 30 days before your event.

  • Bring your own caterer (licensed and insured)
  • Choose any photographer or videographer
  • Select your own florist and decorator
  • Hire your preferred DJ, band, or entertainment
  • Access our Trusted Vendor List for recommendations
