For Vendors
The venue shapes everything that follows: your guest count, your design, your timeline and even your photos. As a luxury wedding planner in Houston, Épris Events has designed weddings and events at some of the most beautiful venues in Texas and beyond. Here are a few we love, and what makes each one special.
Chateau Nouvelle – French Romance in Houston
A white French-inspired chateau with a fountain courtyard and manicured grounds. It suits couples who want a fairytale feel and dramatic portraits, and its interiors take bold design beautifully, from deep burgundy editorials to grand celebrations with towering florals.
The Grand Galvez – Historic Glamour in Galveston
Chandeliers, palm-lined grounds and a ballroom with real history. The Grand Galvez is ideal for coastal elegance and classic black-tie palettes, as in Mitra & Aliakbar’s black, white and red wedding.
McGovern Centennial Gardens – A Garden Ceremony in the City
Lush gardens in the heart of Houston, perfect for an outdoor ceremony framed by florals. Pair it with a nearby reception venue for a two-location day, as Kofi & Alanna did.
Sandlewood Manor – Southern Estate Charm
A white-columned estate with sprawling oaks, made for garden weddings, long tablescapes and vintage cars. See our Sandlewood Manor editorial.
The Junior League of Houston – Elegant Daytime Events
Refined interiors that work beautifully for luncheons, showers, tea parties and fundraisers, like our blue and white tea party.
How to Choose the Right Luxury Venue
- Start with your guest count, then confirm the room works for both ceremony and reception, including a rain plan.
- Ask about vendor policies. Some venues require in-house catering or approved vendor lists.
- Visit at the time of day you will marry. Light changes everything.
- Think about guest experience: parking, hotels nearby, accessibility and flow between spaces.
- Bring your planner to the walkthrough. We spot logistics issues that are easy to miss.
