The weather in Houston can be unpredictable, keep that in mind when hosting a bridal shower in a garden party venue. Aim for spring or early autumn to enjoy the milder temperatures. Choose venues that offer both indoor and outdoor options in case of rain. For example, Verandas Events in Independence Heights offers a charming garden setting with versatile indoor space. Decorate with light, airy colors to complement the natural surroundings, and consider providing fans or shade if it’s a warm day. Keep the guest list small, as most garden venues accommodate smaller gatherings, and plan games or activities that suit an outdoor setting, like lawn games or a DIY flower bar.
On average, garden venues charge between $125 and $400 per hour, while some venues offer a full-day rental ranging from $500 to $3,000. For venues charging a minimum spend, you can expect to pay between $4,000 and $7,000 per session, which includes the cost of food and beverages. Event spaces with party packages typically charge around $25 to $50 per guest. (All data from Tagvenue).
