When looking for the ideal venue, you should consider whether the overall feel of the location will match your wedding vibes. If you’d like a modern and chic wedding, you should look around the Downtown area - the ballrooms, restaurants and hotel wedding venues there boast an upscale ambience that will perfectly match your vision. For rustic and boho weddings, we recommend checking out the neighboring cities - Alvin, Richmond and Tomball. The warehouses and modern barns there are nothing but beautiful and picturesque.

A general rule of thumb recommends doing it as early as you can. If you want to enjoy a long list of venues to choose from, you should start your hunt at least one year in advance. This will give you enough time to choose spaces that you like, contact the managers for an individual offer and compare the offers accordingly to your requirements. Also, it’s best to set a budget and decide on the size of your event before you start your search process. Why? It will help you rule out spaces that don’t match your number of guests and the ones that don’t fall within your price range.
