The Houston Club

The Houston Club was a fabulous venue for our small wedding (60 guests). Jeana was very helpful throughout the planning process and did a wonderful job of keeping the master plan together for us. You just can't beat the amazing views, cozy ambiance, and fantastic food. I could not have imagined a better way to celebrate with our friends and family. A few things I would suggest: Absolutely get a day of coordinator; not only is it less stressful, but they act as a liaison between staff and yourself to make sure everything is set up as it should be. Before the ceremony starts ask that someone ensure the clubs sound system is turned off, I was kind of distraught when I got to the end of the aisle and "Jealous" was playing overhead. Luckily it wasn't that loud, but I'm sure it will make it into the video. Get the bar! It was definitely worth the money.

The Houston Club combines the best view in downtown with delicious food and a gorgeous space. Jeana is the most fantastic events director and made our entire planning experience so easy and fun!

I'm not one of those brides that dreamt of my wedding since I was a little girl. I really just knew that I wanted the best party of my life filled with all our friends and family. The Houston Club created the most amazing atmosphere and produced a wedding I couldn't have imagined. The servers were amazing - we were being stopped by our guests complimenting the steller service. They took care of everything for not only me, the bride, but my groom, and my parents. I could not more highly recommend this venue.

I recently had my wedding reception at the Houston Club and was very impressed with how the reception turned out. The staff at the Houston Club are by far the most helpful! Alan, Shirley, and Arterean and worked hard to make our wedding reception flawless and rememberable. The room was beautifully decorated from the celings to the linens. The food was also great!! The service stands out to me most of all. I had a great experience working with everyone at the Houston Club and I'm happy I chose their club to have my reception. It couldn't have been better.

I really enjoyed my wedding reception! Unfortunately, I think I would have enjoyed it regardless because it’s the people who make the event and not the venue. I have a fun group of family and friends and we can make a party in a waste land! Now… here are some of the things that happened with me….. The room was perfect size. The only problem with the Texas Ballroom is that the room can be a little dark. I should have hired someone to bring in extra lighting. The staff members were really nice. I did have a few problems because the main contact changed during the wedding planning - after I signed the contract and paid the deposit. I had a hard time getting the new person up to speed and getting approvals for deals the original person made with me. Another issue is that the new person made arrangements without getting approval from others, and she had to change the arrangements with me three days before the wedding! This change resulted in a +$2,000 increase in my price. Surely not a call you want to receive three days before the wedding!!!! The night of the wedding, the bar was shut down an hour before the event ended. The main contact had left the venue and the bar manager could not reach her to extend the time. The main contact should be easily accessible for weddings. The bar manager should have been able to reach her. Since he couldn’t reach her, he shut down the bar and would not even allow me or my guests to get one more drink. When I spoke with her after the wedding, she said she didn’t understand that I wanted the bar along with the room for an additional hour. Why would I want the room and not have a bar and service during the hour????? Maybe someone out there would. The staff started cleaning up the room about 45 minutes before it was scheduled to end… picking up things on the tables and taking down set up. Who does that???? I was really upset, but since it was my wedding day, I decided to just leave and try to enjoy the rest of my evening. They should not begin clean up until the end of the event. Not while the BRIDE and GROOM are in there and we paid for the venue through a certain time. If you have your wedding here, please make note of these issues and do whatever you can to ensure this points are covered before your event. Hindsight is 20/20. Now I gave high ratings because the staff and the service by the staff members were awesome! Minus the items above, we were treated like royalty. I can’t take away from the people who worked hard to ensure we had a great time, and they were doing what they were told. Management needs to get on board and they would be awesome.

The wedding turned out beautiful but watch everything they tell you and get it in writing. They will try to charge you for things they said they wouldn't at the last minute.
