If I could rate this venue a million stars, I would!
We had to move our wedding back locally on short notice giving us only 5mos to plan a big traditional wedding, when we’d originally planned to elope with only immediate family.
Magnolia Be...
lls has packages that make wedding planning a breeze if you’re super busy, or working and unable to take a vacation to plan a wedding or hire a planner.
They took care of everything, made it stress free and magical, and nearly everything was included in the package with extremely straightforward packaging. We had access to amazing bridal suites, the chapel, all grounds for pictures, they provided the DJ, and even included a wedding cake, catering, dance floor monogram, Photo Booth, sparkler send off, and custom bar package. They offered recommendations for hair, makeup, and even officiants. I was thrilled with nearly every single one of their suggestions, though I chose to use a close friend to make our Wedding cake.
We even asked to customize a couple things and switch to a different dessert provider with some speciality desserts. They accommodated, and it didn’t even raise our price! It kept us within my budget, and everyone has been raving about it since.
One other thing to note: I’m not the girl that’s been planning my wedding since I was a kid. I haven’t been in, or attended very many weddings, and didn’t really know what I was doing or where to start. My job keeps me insanely busy, and to suddenly switch from eloping to a big traditional wedding had me overwhelmed. Sheila, the owner, and her reps including Summer…. Took 95% of the stress out of this day.
The other 5%… trying not to trip or sweat or cry walking down the aisle lol!
I cannot thank their team enough. They saved our wedding, and made it the most memorable magical day.
The venue was beautiful, the spaces were well thought out, the staff was friendly and accommodating! 5 out of 5!
Wonderful place. I will never forget it. Thank you

My husband and I—and our families—couldn’t have asked for a better wedding experience at the Magnolia Bells. The venue was stunning; the package options with planning services and vendors were unbeatable; and the team was reliable, responsive, ...
caring, organized, and provided exceptional customer service every step of the way.
Our time with the Magnolia Bells was a bit longer than usual due to the pandemic but, even through the various postponements and changes, the team was always there and happy to help. We are extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to have celebrated our special moment(s) at the Magnolia Bells and cannot recommend them highly enough! Thank y'all!
Beautiful venue! They were with us through every step of the planning process! Our day was absolutely unforgettable because of them. We highly recommend!
Beyond on amazed with Magnolia Bells. They were organized, detailed and easy to work with. Their packages were affordable and the venue was beautiful. My guest haven’t stop talking how amazing it was.
I cannot say enough good things about Magnolia Bells. We had to reschedule our wedding due to the pandemic, and they helped us change the date seamlessly. We got a package through the venue, which made everything so stress free! I am a person w...
ho can get stressed pretty easily, so I always worried I wouldn’t enjoy the wedding planning process/the big event itself. They took all of that stress away because they are so thorough and detail oriented. Throughout the planning and meeting process they go through every detail you could think of and even bring up things you wouldn’t think about. They really did make my dream wedding come to life! I told them my vision, told them what decorations I was bringing and what I wanted to use from their collection, and they made it happen! I even baked my own desserts and brought them to set up a dessert table, and they set all that up too! We didn’t have to think of a thing on our wedding day other than enjoying the moment, so we had a blast on our wedding day. They even made sure everything was moving according to schedule on the day of by walking around to help with anything and everything, giving you very subtle reminders to not spend too long talking to one table, etc.
They are truly phenomenal, especially Natalie who we worked with the most. Thank you guys so much from the bottom of our hearts! We had such an amazing wedding experience with you guys!! It felt as close to perfect as you can get 😊
I can't say enough good things about Magnolia Bells. Not only is the entire venue beautiful, but the staff were amazing to work with from beginning to end. We planned our wedding in a very short amount of time and they were extremely helpful th...
roughout the whole process. I worked mainly with Natalie, Sheila, and Leah and they were all so great in making sure my day went smooth. Everything was absolutely perfect and I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding. We had a smaller wedding (40 guests) on a Friday evening, but they still made it seem like the most important event.
I originally thought the venue might be a little too rustic for our style, but it was truly elegant and they can make your vision become a reality. Highly recommend!
Loved every bit of it! Thank you for making my special day so perfect!
WOW. I really don’t know where to start with how fantastic Magnolia Bells was for us. We decided to go with one of their all inclusive packages and with planning a wedding during covid I can’t say enough good things. Sheila, Natalie, Ashlynn an...
d Janie made our day flawless. Honestly if anything went wrong, I didn’t even know about it! They really know how to plan the day and they think of everything. I was so calm and able to enjoy my day with my family and friends because of the team at MB and I cannot thank them enough. I also worked with Leslie oh my decor and my jaw dropped when I saw our reception set up, it was everything I’d wanted! They surpassed our expectations and really made our wedding a dream come true, don’t hesitate on booking you’d wedding with them!!!
Magnolia Bells delivered our perfect wedding. We were beyond impressed with how easy everything felt working with the staff. They are amazing individuals. The night was amazing and I owe it all to them. Thank you.
I can not say enough about this venue. They care so much about their couples and making our day the best. They were so helpful and understanding when it came to postponing due to COVID. The venue is also beautiful, as is the bridal cottage. I a...
m so so glad I chose Magnolia Bells as my venue and would recommend it to everyone!

Magnolia Bells is the BEST!! Not only is the venue absolutely beautiful-it has a beautiful indoor chapel for ceremony as well as an equally beautiful outdoor ceremony area if you so choose, so you can't go wrong no matter time of year of what t...
he crazy Houston weather will bring, but Natalie, Macy and Ross were awesome to work with. They were very nice, always helpful in answering our questions, super flexible, and just all around amazing. We also stayed in the onsite cabin and that was so convenient. Super clean, roomy, and comfortable. I really can't say enough about how wonderful everyone and everything was. They truly helped make our day as magical as we hoped! Thank you.
I cannot begin to describe the amazing experience I had from start to wedding day with Magnolia Bells. From the moment you set foot on their property, even before you book, they treat you like family. Once we booked with them (we did select a...
package), they were always an email, text, or phone call away. Any question I had, they were ready and willing to answer. As we approached the wedding day, their team was so knowledgeable, encouraging, and overall excited for my fiance and I's wedding. On the day of, the staff was INCREDIBLE. We had several bumps that I knew nothing about, and all were handled with such grace and calm by the staff members. The venue was decorated beautifully, and we did not need a lot of extras as the venue was stunning by itself! We received nothing but compliments on our wedding day about not only the beauty of the venue, but about the staff as well.
Shout out to the amazing team who helped make our wedding day so incredible: Natalie, Sheila, Ross, and Janie! We could not have had the incredible day we did without the people that have put their heart and soul into Magnolia Bells, and made us feel like a part of the Magnolia Bells family.
The grounds at Magnolia Bells are beautiful and immaculately kept. The staff and management are flexible and extremely knowledgeable. They took great care to make sure that we understood what their services entailed. They definitely know weddin...
gs! A bit pricey, but absolutely gorgeous.
Without a doubt the Magnolia Bells team made this day spectacular. From the initial tour to the wedding day we could not have been more pleased with everyone we worked with at Magnolia Bells.
The most beautiful venue! We had a fantastic experience. These people are experts and made everything flow smoothly during the ceremony and reception! Would definitely recommend to anyone in search of an event venue.
All the staff at MB made my dream wedding come true!! I couldn't be more thankful for them! From the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything y'all did to make this day so special for us and for helping me stress less when I had little deta...
ils to figure out last minute!!
Magnolia Bells is truly the best venue out there!!
I don't even know how to convey how much I loved this venue and the staff. I got married on June 22, 2019 and it was everything I could have hoped for! The venue itself speaks to you when you are on your first tour it and the photos do not do ...
ANY justice to the actual quality of it. From the moment I had my tour I knew right off this was where I wanted to have my special day. The staff is so amazing and do a great job helping you prepare for your big day. They truly want it to be EVERYTHING you hope. The whole staff along with some of their close friends were there helping on the day of my wedding. They made sure things went smoothly and it was exactly how I pictured it. Sheila and Natalie went above and beyond what I could have wanted in a day of coordinators as well as venue staff. This place is truly a hidden gem and one definitely worth checking out, you will not be sorry you did. I can not say thank you enough or write a good enough review to give justice of how I felt and feel about getting to have this place, the staff, and the friends I made at this venue as the location I got married.
Everything about Magnolia Bells was exceptional. All our meetings were scheduled and everyone was on time and ready to go. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We knew what to expect every step of the way. They made planning and decision ma...
king very easy. The vendor list they supplied was wonderful and the open house to see decor options and sample caterers and other vendors was well planned and a great asset for us planning a wedding. The option to use the chapel or have an outside wedding is perfect. The Bridal cottage is super cute and very accommodating for everyone getting ready. The landscape is beautiful for perfect pictures. The staff is very organized and they made sure everything was perfect. I was able to enjoy myself because everything was taken care of so well. At the conclusion of our day, they packed everything up for us. It was a wonderful experience. I thank all of them at Magnolia Bells for making my daughter’s wedding everything she dreamed it of being. Forever grateful! ❤️ The perfect place for a flawless wedding day. Loved everything about this venue. Recommend them without hesitation.
We held my daughter’s wedding here and did a complete package with their planners on May 11. This place is beautiful. We arrived at 8am and were met by staff who helped us sort and unload where we would put items- and the bridal cottage was c...
ompletely set up for all of the bridesmaids - they brought us mimosa’s and sandwiches- the planner kept everyone on schedule down to the moment our girl walked down the aisle. They have a lodge which is available for all of the groomsmen or other family members to wait before the ceremony- it was amazing and well situated. The chapel was perfect and the outdoor ceremony area (though we didn’t use it) was equally impressive. We had about 220 guests and it never felt crowded in the reception area at all. The vendors we chose were all from their preferred vendors list except we used our own photographer (Admyer weddings also located in Houston). The cake and the food were spot on- and the florals were done by HEB Blooms- we had a cocktail hour after the ceremony in the porch with bar service and a jazz band- they set up all of our cheese trays and grapes in just a beautiful way...I’m telling you this wedding was flawless. I simply can’t say enough about the entire team. Very professional and dependable. Everyone continues to tell us how beautiful the venue was and how lovely the wedding was and how it must have been so difficult to plan... it wasn’t!!! Our daughter knew what she wanted- she told Sheila and they took care of all the details. Do NOT overlook this venue. It is a hidden gem and a solid value.
We had our wedding at Magnolia Bells 3/10/2019. It was the most perfect and beautiful day. We fell in love with MB the moment we toured the chapel. It is truly a breathtaking venue. It is the perfect mix of rustic, classy, and vintage all in on...
e. Not only is the venue amazing, the staff at Magnolia Bells are so helpful and caring. They went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. We would not have wanted our wedding anywhere else.
This venue was simply fantastic! Friends and family asked me to switch job to be a wedding or party planner. I have Magnolia Bells and their staff to blame for those strange requests. Best wedding ever is what I heard from all attendees!
The BEST venue!! The chapel and barn are gorgeous and the staff is so easy to work with! The bridal cottage can’t be beat and they even have an on-site cabin for family/guests to stay. Everything about this venue is beautiful. I couldn’t imagin...
e getting married anywhere else. Love Magnolia Bells!
Sheila and Natalie went above and beyond with excellent customer service. The very first time we met with Sheila she described her passion for weddings and it shows. Every time we met with them, they were happy, encouraging, pleasant and kind. ...
They responded to our many emails promptly and worked with our schedule to meet with them each time. My family and I attended their Open House event after we had already booked with them. My grandfather got sick, (he has cancer and we didn’t think he would make it to the wedding day so wanted to show him the venue before), and in the midst of all they had going on that day, they stopped to help us and make sure we were ok. Even on my wedding day, Sheila was there helping me finalize last minute details. On top of all the excellent service we received throughout the whole process, the venue itself is just stunning. We received so many compliments from our guests on just how beautiful the venue was. We used their wood and stone chapel, the barn with wood ceilings, and the spacious bride’s cottage. They also recently added a great outdoor ceremony space. Highly, highly recommend!
It was absolutely perfect and Gorgeous!!! everyone was so sweet and helpful!!! Stunning venue
My daughter was married here in July 2018. This place is absolutely beautiful. The staff is so helpful and very easy to work with. We purchased the "raid the closet" decor and that was money well spent. We told Natalie the style we were loo...
king for & she created a beautiful reception area that exceeded our expectations. We had 150 guests and there was plenty of room for everyone in the barn. They have really thought of everything. The cottage for the bride's party to get ready was fabulous with plenty of room, a kitchen, nice bathroom with shower & lots of lights & mirrors. The groom's area upstairs in the chapel was also roomy and far enough away that we didn't worry about the bride & groom seeing each other before the ceremony. Our guests just raved about the beauty of the entire property. I highly recommend this venue. They really take care of you from start to finish.
As soon as my daughter saw this venue, she didn't want to look any further. Everything has been so well planned: the serene setting, beautiful handcrafted buildings, fun brides cottage, the private parking lot so cars are not spoiling the rusti...
c atmosphere. Sheila Settles is so sweet and genuine. She gave quick responses to questions during the planning months. On the day of the wedding, she was always a step ahead of what I thought we would remember. And she arrived in her golf cart each time my 91 year old mother-in-law on a walker and me on crutches needed a ride to the next location. We will always remember her as a significant part of our wedding. Our guests complimented the custom work built by her husband. And although we questioned the wedding date, it actually turned out perfectly. It was the night before Mother's Day. What a gift it was to expand our family overnight!
My husband and I got married at Magnolia Bells on June 17th, 2017. We toured the venue back in 2016 while it was still being renovated and from our first tour, we knew that it would be the place for us. Sheila, the on-site coordinator, gave us ...
the tour and we were blown away by what the venue had to offer! The venue itself is located right off a main road, but with all the natural trees, it feels as if it is tucked away deep in the woods- perfect for my boho vibe! There is a spacious bride’s cottage that was perfect for getting ready in with your bridal party. There is also a groom’s room above the chapel for the groomsmen to get ready in as well! The chapel is so beautiful and has a lot of character. Not much decorating is needed! The newly renovated barn is gorgeous! It is rustic and chic, complete with chandeliers, stone and reclaimed wood. This was exactly the style we wanted. It was perfect for our guest size of around 160 guests, although it can hold more. The staff at Magnolia Bells are all so kind and they were very helpful throughout the wedding planning process. I worked with Sheila as my coordinator and she was phenomenal. She is organized, creative and deeply caring. None of the staff are “jaded” and they are all so eager and excited to make your day truly, the best day of your life. The on-site bartender and bar staff went above and beyond to make sure I could have my signature drink- even getting rosemary sprigs for the cocktails at the reception! I highly recommend this venue not only because of its beauty, but because of the people who make it so beautiful. Thank you, Magnolia Bells, for making our wedding so special! We are very grateful!
We got married at Magnolia Bells in May 2017, and our wedding was so much more beautiful than I ever could have imagined! The chapel on the hill in the woods was just perfect! I knew it was the place as soon as we drove up. And the reception ba...
rn was just our style. We had the perfect balance of elegance and casual, so it was fun and not to stiff! It definitely made an impression on every one of our guests as well. We were very, very pleased with the way everything went!
I married the love of my life at Magnolia Bells on March 18, 2017 and it was better than I ever imagined. I cannot express enough how amazing this venue is. Not only because it is drop dead gorgeous- from the huge reception barn adorned with be...
autiful chandeliers and reclaimed wood to the romantic chapel filled with handmade pews and of course the bridal cottage that will actually make you and your girls feel like princesses... Beyond all of that, Magnolia Bells is so incredible because of the people behind it. I am not exaggerating when I say that Sheila Settles, wedding coordinator of Magnolia Bells, is the most talented, creative, and organized person I’ve ever met. She has many years of experience planning parties and weddings and that experience was obvious as she helped me plan the tiniest details I would have never thought of. On the day of the wedding, Sheila and her team were phenomenal. Not one thing went wrong, and I owe that all to them. I highly recommend this venue to anyone- the owner, coordinator, and staff have thought of every detail to make your day perfect. Magnolia Bells exceeded my expectations in every way. I could not be more grateful for the fantastic and brilliant people behind this venue.
