Celebrate the next chapter of your love story from the sixth floor of the Marriott Marquis Houston at the Altitude Rooftop and Pool area. The 60,000 square feet of space encompassing The Event Pavilion (accommodating up to 400 guests), The South Event (accommodating up to 425 guests) and The West Event Lawn (accommodating up to 800 guests) can be transformed to execute reception and banquet-style celebrations. The space also features a Texas-shaped lazy river pool, an infinity pool and several bars (where you and your guests can enjoy cocktails and mocktails).

The Terrace at Lyric in Houston, Texas

Exchange vows surrounded by up to 200 of your closest friends and family at The Terrace at Lyric. When you host your Houston rooftop wedding here, you'll receive panoramic views of downtown Houston's Theater District. Regardless of how you choose to celebrate, you can expect a modern, yet elegant atmosphere with some of the best rooftop dining in Houston, catered by Lyric Bar and Lyric Market (of which there are eight restaurant concepts to choose from).

R24 Rooftop Lounge at Hilton Americas-Houston in Houston, Texas

Host a wedding cocktail reception at R24 Rooftop Lounge at Hilton Americas-Houston with up to 250 guests. The space has room for up to 160 guests for a seated dinner.

The Grove in Houston, Texas

For a unique Houston rooftop wedding venue in the heart of downtown, The Grove is an excellent choice. Say "I do" from The Second Floor space at the Treehouse Deck before heading inside the Vista Room (which features floor-to-ceiling windows and views of Discovery Green Park) for dinner and dancing.

The Bowery House and Gardens at 7 Oaks in Katy, Texas

The third floor of The Bowery House and Gardens at 7 Oaks is home to The Rooftop Terrace. Although the rooftop is the key draw for many couples, this industrial loft-style venue (which we can't forget to mention sits atop historic land dating back to the 1940s) features exposed brick and additional indoor and outdoor celebrating spaces, including The Gallery, The Courtyard and The Garden Deck. Regardless of how you celebrate, this venue can accommodate up to 300 guests, depending on how and where you choose to utilize the space while saving money on your wedding venue.

The Westin at the Woodlands in The Woodlands, Texas

Celebrate your love on the rooftop The Westin at the Woodlands. Located about 30 miles from Houston in The Woodlands portion of this southern state, the hotel's rooftop pool deck can accommodate celebrations with up to 200 guests. You and your guests will enjoy views of The Woodlands Waterway while celebrating and enjoying cuisine catered by the hotel's culinary team. Just make sure to note that regardless of the wedding package you choose, you'll need a day-of wedding planner by your side—it's a venue requirement.

Le Meridien Houston Downtown in Houston, Texas

Tie the knot at the rooftop terrace at Le Meridien Houston Downtown for 360-degree views of downtown Houston. Although the capacity for weddings on the rooftop of this luxurious Houston hotel is smaller at 100, it is a strong option if you want to find a wedding venue to host a more intimate celebration. With a starting price of $11,700 to reserve this venue, this falls just below the average wedding venue cost of $12,800, which was found as a result of an internal study The Knot conducted in 2023.

Aperitivo at Le Tesserae in Houston, Texas

If you want to make it official at a rooftop bar in Houston, look no further than Aperitivo at Le Tesserae. This 5,000 square-foot hybrid rooftop patio bar features suspended light fixtures and elevated bar and lounge seating that can be reorganized for your special day. It's worth mentioning its sweeping views of the Houston skyline and the Buffalo Bayou—make sure to let your wedding photographer know ahead of time so they can prepare to take the best shots.

Outpost at POST in Houston, Texas

As is the case when searching for any rooftop wedding venues in America, you want the place you reserve to offer stunning views that will wow your guests from the moment they arrive. The 5,400 square-foot space, Outpost, at POST does just that with its wide-ranging views of downtown Houston. This contemporary, yet elegant venue can accommodate up to 450 guests for a cocktail-style reception and 300 guests for a daytime seated dinner or one underneath the stars.

White Oak Music Hall in Houston, Texas

Music lovers will appreciate a wedding at White Oak Music Hall in downtown Houston. The White Oak Roof Deck has uncovered and covered elements, which can be particularly suitable if you encounter inclement weather during your celebration. Whether you invite 200 guests for a cocktail-style celebration or 100 for a seated-style one, the roof deck has space for you. If you'd rather take things inside for your celebration, you can do that at one of the venue's upstairs or downstairs spaces.

Hyatt Centric The Woodlands in The Woodlands, Texas

Head about 30 miles north of Houston for a rooftop wedding at Hyatt Centric The Woodlands. Tie the knot on the 1,075 square-foot Veranda with up to 75 guests for an entirely outdoor celebration. Or, you can add the indoor State Room for an additional 2,290 square feet of space and a larger guest list with up to 175 guests.

Georgia James in Houston, Texas

The top floor of Georgia James steakhouse houses an open-air rooftop venue filled with bistro lights and panoramic views of central Houston. Featuring lounge seating and electric heaters, you can host a rooftop wedding in Houston here during many seasons (including the cooler ones).
