Continuing with our theme of wedding venues, especially if you recently got engaged, I'm excited to share some fantastic wedding venue options just a short drive from the heart of Houston. Some of these we’ve planned weddings at, and others we just dream about! Let's explore five stunning venues that offer the ideal blend of convenience and charm.
Approximately 40 miles from Downtown Houston and tucked away in a picturesque community, Sandlewood Manor is one of my absolute favorites. This charming and luxury venue offers a serene escape from the city while remaining conveniently accessible. The beautifully landscape gardens, pristine chapel, and elegant ballroom provide the perfect backdrop for your dream wedding. See my POV from our last wedding of 2023, Allie and Travis’s big day, on TikTok.
2. Pine Lake Ranch- Montgomery, TX
Travel 50 miles outside of the heart of Houston and you’ll find Pine Lake Ranch, a rustic-chic gem ideal for couples seeking a taste of the countryside without venturing too far from the city lights. Say I Do beneath one of the most breath taking oak trees you’ll find anywhere close to Houston, and dance the night away in a beautifully restored barn.
3. The Woodlands Resort- The Woodlands, TX
If you’re more of a city girly at heart, then travel up I-45 and escape into a community underneath trees! The Woodlands Resort is a luxurious resort nestled within The Woodlands. It offers a blend of sophistication and convenience. Choose from various indoor and outdoor settings for your ceremony and reception, all while enjoying top-notch amenities.
4. The Springs In Cypress- Cypress, TX
Some will say I’m cheating since this European-inspired Chateau has a Houston address, but its just 25 miles from downtown Houston. The regal estate offers an enchanting setting with its grand architecture and lush gardens.
5. Madera Estates- Conroe, TX
45 miles north of Houston you’ll find the Spanish villa-inspired venue, Madera Estates. They combine the beauty of the countryside with the convenience of being within reach of the city. It’s stunning outdoor ceremony space and elegant Grand Ballroom are sure to leave a lasting impression.
By choosing one of these exquisite venues just outside Houston, you can have the best of both worlds – a convenient location for your guests and the enchantment of a destination-like wedding. These venues allow you to escape the hustle and bustle of the city while still enjoying all the amenities and services you desire.
