Giddy with excitement, nervous about the monumental task of planning a wedding – many feelings come with being engaged, and we are here to feel those feelings with you! Finding the perfect venue of all the Houston wedding venues and setting your wedding date are the exciting first steps. Having a trusted Houston wedding planner provide guidance will give you peace of mind knowing exactly what to anticipate.
When we tour wedding venues with you, whether it’s somewhere we’ve designed in before or a brand new location, we are mentally jotting down what you love about the spaces, how it aligns with your vision, the features of each space, alternative ways we can transform the space, and the flow from one space to another to account for smooth transitions for your guests.
Seasons, temperatures, and humidity are important factors to consider when thinking about your wedding date and choosing your wedding venue in Houston. With the scorching Texas heat, our couples prefer having their wedding in the spring or fall when the temperatures are more manageable and enjoyable.
Outdoor weddings during Texas summers, from June through August, are less desirable with temperatures rising above 100 degrees. Instead, weddings indoors during these summer months would be the best way to keep you and your guests cool and comfortable. Because weather is unpredictable in Texas, it’s very important to know which wedding venues in Houston have the right spaces to accommodate your guest count when thinking about a weather contingency plan.
