How to find a Quinceanera venue in Houston?

As you may already know, a sprawling and diverse city like Houston boasts fantastic venues for any event. In terms of the dining scene, you can’t skip Downtown or Montrose. There’s so much to explore in H-Town that you can sometimes pick the wrong venue just to get it done with. Moreover, there are plenty of things to take into consideration when picking a spot: the atmosphere, the venue capacity, the amenities, and the proximity, among other factors. To find a swanky or laid-back venue, you first need to consider the following:

Guest Size

Quinceaneras are grand affairs. Yet, the size of the event depends on the family size. Relatives and friends are those who are generally invited to the event. The more the merrier certainly rings true for these parties. While it is common to have over 100 guests, you can definitely break the rule and host a smaller event. If your daughter dislikes crowds, it’s best to keep it intimate for her not to feel uncomfortable during the event. In addition to that, you need to pick your court of honor, which can consist of both girls and boys. It’s totally up to the birthday girl to decide who she wants to be part of her Court of Honor.

Event Location

Once the guest list is finalized, start thinking about where you would want to host the event. For instance, if your caterer, baker, and seamstress are all in Montrose, it’s best to hire a venue in the same area. It’s also a good idea to rent out a space that’s close to your home and that of your guests. Try to pick a venue that is close to the church where the first part of the event will be held as well. Think airports, metro stations, and accessibility in general, to assess which location will suit everyone best. Finalizing the location will also make it easier to narrow down a list of potential venues.

Venue

Every venue differs in terms of style and atmosphere. As an adult, you may be inclined to pick a venue that suits your style, such as a lavish restaurant or space boasting minimalistic decor. However, it’s crucial to focus on the little miss when selecting a venue and not get carried away by your preferences. If your daughter adores a particular era, theme, cuisine, or decor, rent a venue that fits her tastes. Whether it’s a bright pink venue with funky decor or a luxurious venue with caged chandeliers, listen to the princess and fulfill her desires! The chosen theme should be in line with the venue’s vibe. Here are some venues to consider according to your event style:

• Classic: Fairy tales can come true if you throw the party at a historic spot, a sophisticated ballroom, or an elegant reception hall in a hotel.
• Modern: Hosting a Star Wars-inspired quince? Hire a pub or barcade for the afterparty. 
• Casual: Prefer a laid-back atmosphere? Rent a backyard or a patio for an more comfortable setting. 

Budget 

The budget is one of the primary things to be finalized before the party planning even starts. When working on the budget, there are several party elements to add up. The following are the must-haves for any party:

• Catering
• Entertainment-DJ/live band/dancers 
• Venue 
• Accommodation
• Dress 
• Party supplies 
• Decor such as floral arrangements 

Leave a buffer for other expenses, as you may always require some additional items that were not initially discussed. 

Amenities

The rental cost of your selected venue often includes other extra services such as catering. Make sure to check what’s included in the rental fee. You may ask for a list of prices for the additional services provided such as a la carte menu, decor services, entertainment options, and so on. Some venues will only provide the event space, so it’s important to check what is being offered in the package with the venue manager. 

Food/Beverages

From tamales to tortillas, everything needs to be flawless on your daughter’s milestone birthday. There are two effortless ways to ensure that the food served is of the highest quality:

• Hire a renowned caterer who specializes in your chosen cuisine 
• Rent a venue that will provide you with excellent catering services

The success of a party often hinges on the food. It’s a must for the host to guarantee that the meals served are scrumptious and adequate for the guest size. Beverages are cheaper if the selected venue allows you to BYOB, if not, pick the drink options carefully to minimize the costs or serve a limited amount of booze at the party. Remember not to skip the desserts!

Other things that can help you gauge the quality of a venue are- the assistance provided and the reviews. We hope our tips will help you choose the best party venue for the young lady!
