We got married in April here and it was amazing! The venue is beautiful and there is a lot of space. My planner, Madison, was very helpful during the process and would answer any questions I had. Our coordinators Janeen and Jackie were awesome! They helped make the day flow perfectly and if we needed anything they were on top of it! The DJ was great as well and was included in the package. The only compliant I have was that they ran out of food even though less people showed up then in our final guest count. We got the steak option and it was delicious but the portions they gave out were small and they somehow still ran out...

Fountain View Farm

Splendora, TX

As local residents, we felt our small, picturesque East Texas town of Splendora needed a unique attraction that would meet the wedding and events needs of our local and neighboring communities. Couples in our area have long been in search of an event hall to accommodate weddings of all sizes, without having to drive an hour (or more) to the next big city. When we first discovered this remote piece of property with the ideal-sized pond, we envisioned it with dreamy, flowing fountains that would create a romantic backdrop for the most memorable bridal/wedding scenery. This inspired our name, Fountain View Farm!

I got married on March 2, 2024, and my husband and I had the best experience at Fountain View Farm! Courtney was so communicative and easy to work with. She and Teresa were so helpful, sending out reminders about payments and always being available to answer questions and give assistance. I found their different venue packages to be great! It made my life so much easier to have certain vendors already included in the package we chose, so I didn't have to stress over having to choose too many outside vendors. The event coordinator, Amanda, was a wedding-day lifesaver! She kept things running smoothly and ran the day in a way that allowed us to enjoy every moment. I cannot say enough great things about the FVF team!

We celebrated our vintage goth inspired wedding at The Atrium back in October 2023 and couldn’t have been happier with the experience, atmosphere, and pricing. The venue’s floor to ceiling windows added beautiful natural light for the cocktail hour and beautiful reflections for the reception. We went with black chairs and table cloths to go with our theme (provided and setup by the venue). Arianna was absolutely amazing in helping me with timelines, setups, ideas, and organization with only 4 months to plan. What I loved most about The Atrium was that we were able to decorate the venue ourselves instead of using specified vendors. I was allowed to setup bistro lights in the venue to give it a more intimate feel. I also really liked that we had so much space - we had a dedicated room and section for the buffet, cake and desserts, bar, another room for the photo booth and quiet area, bridal suite, and grooms area. We had room for over 150 guests. 5 stars for service, atmosphere, and experience! Will definitely be hosting another an event here soon!

First of all this venue is beautiful. My wedding guests all loved it and kept saying “I feel like I have left houston and I’m on vacation”. Even though it rained on my day the venue was beautiful and it just added to the charm of the whole day. Now to the star of my wedding. The one who made it happen more perfect than my vision: STEPHANIE!!! She was amazing, all my wishes, my visions, what I communicated…. They just popped into life. Yes my other vendors helped but Stephanie was so amazing, she made my big day effortless. People kept coming up to me asking who my wedding planner was because the day went so smoothly and I said no one, my husband and I planned this wedding, Stephanie executed it all. This venue is worth it. The all inclusive packages are a steal. The cake was amazing, the flowers were all fresh and done in the most beautiful way possible it was divine. The DJ was phenomenal. They know what they are doing! I was so stressed things may not come together or things may fall apart but the Townhall team just handled it all. They are truly the best! Thank you all so much for the perfect execution of my dream wedding!

I hosted a wedding for my son and my new daughter-in-law last weekend. I am in awe of the whole evening. The venue was so beautiful. We had the wedding and reception in the same room. After the wedding, all the guests went out to the bar area for the cocktail hour. The room was magically transformed from a wedding ceremony to a reception within a very short time. The owners, Cathy and Brendan, were so easy to work with. They made us feel comfortable the first time we met. They answered all our questions and were very accommodating. Cathy, Brendan and Kelli, our coordinator, guided us through the whole process, from beginning to end. And the food! We elected to use The Lasagna House, which was fabulous! Their signature lasagna and the chicken fettuccine penne pasta was delicious. Every guest I spoke with enjoyed both the gorgeous venue and the dinner. I could go on and on about this fabulous place, but instead, just go see it for yourselves. They have open houses frequently. You can see the wedding venue and taste the different caterers’ food and cakes. I could not have asked for a better experience at The Heights Villa!

The venue itself is absolutely stunning and has such an enchanting, fairytale-like charm across the entire property. I also love how the venue is owned and managed by one family. You can easily see how much love and work they put into it all, to make sure these couples have the best wedding possible, and I really appreciate that. The value of the package we chose, definitely met our standards. We had access to the grounds for the entire day of the wedding (9AM-11PM), which was really advantageous, and there was even complimentary valet. The bride and groom both had their own separate quarters, which were very old houses with such ancestral and historic character that I really adored. The food was delicious and better than expected, since most weddings I've been to had very bland and disappointing dishes. The Chef on-site was very kind and helpful during the tasting process. Jose, the property manager, was very generous with his time and was very understanding and communicative with visits, tastings, and vendor schedules. There were a couple of times that there was confusion with contacts and miscommunications over phone calls/texts, but it was quickly figured out. As for the day of the wedding, the weather was highly unpredictable. It started off sunny and then it stormed for a few hours and then it cleared up just in time for the ceremony to still be held outdoors, and then it rained again for hours- shortly after the ceremony. However, Jose reassured me that they were all fully prepared to rearrange for everything to be indoors, if need be. The only qualms I really had with the night was when the food was being served, it got disorganized and confusing, since we didn't want a seating chart but had two entree options- so we tried to give everyone color-coordinating name plates, but it did not seem to workout too well. Everyone eventually got a meal, though. However, my husband and I wanted our dinners to be boxed up, since we were too anxious and excited to eat. We had told our coordinator this, and she said she would tell Jose to make sure it was done, but I guess the word never got back to him and the food was unfortunately thrown away. Similar situation happened with the cake, because we thought we were going to have the top tier saved for the 1 year anniversary tradition, but I think it was all served, which isn't really a big deal to us (I would rather my guests each have a slice of cake). When the wedding was ending after the grand exit, it got really hectic with packing and cleaning, because of the rain and everyone leaving at the same time, but Jose was really kind about us coming back the following day to pick up all the items that were left behind. Overall, the venue is beautiful and definitely worth it's value, all the staff are very friendly and exceptionally accommodating-I highly recommend it. We had a great time and everyone was happy, and I can't wait to go back to the venue for the complimentary, 1st anniversary bed and breakfast they offer!

I was originally planning for an outdoor wedding at the Event lawn. However, we had to make the last minute call to move it indoors the night before due to the expected rain the next day. I was initially disappointed but now I am so happy that we made that decision for our guests’ comfort. Carol and her team pulled through and had everything set up beautifully in the classrooms. ESPECIALLY adding the drapes on the ceiling which elevated the whole room. Luckily, we finished the ceremony early and was able to arrange our lion dancers to meet us out in the court yard lawn before the rain. I was able to get my favorite photo of all our guests with us and the lion dancers. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the space and said how beautiful that this piece of nature exists right in the Houston city limits THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!

This venue is beautiful! If you want the reception hall super decorated you will have to splurge and get an outside vendor. We went simple so the centerpieces they had were perfect. The venue is a ranch and just gorgeous for pictures. Night pictures were amazing due to the outside lighting and my awesome photographer. We had a beautiful day of weather so it was perfect day pictures and lighting. My coordinator wasn’t the best and barely knew any details from my meetings I had beforehand the wedding. I think that had she been more organized and attentive there would’ve been less confusion and chaos. Overall we enjoyed ourselves just was let down with the coordinator.

You'll find everything from romantic Hill Country vineyards to stunning Gulf Coast waterfronts that provide perfect backdrops for your special day.

Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, you'll find Texas venues ready to accommodate your vision.

Which Wedding Venue Types Are Most Popular in Texas?

Texas venues offer distinctly regional experiences that capture the state's diverse character. Hill Country locations around Fredericksburg give you gorgeous vineyard settings with beautiful limestone architecture and sunset views that will take your breath away.
