(Bride here) There is NO other place to book your wedding because Topos DOES IT ALL!!! From the beginning of booking me and my husband and my mother have been shook at how much Topos offers to make your night special!! Okay first of all the food is bomb!!! I am no skinny legend and they literally had food that was so flavorful and fresh And let me tell you everyone told me that I’d miss eating on my wedding because of how fast everything is going but his staff served me and my husband first- going the extra mile was incredible 3 They decorated it like you wouldn’t believe!!! Jorge the owner had draping behind our sweetheart table, do you know how many vendors I reached out to for this?? and it’s just so beautiful and classy and chic and every bride wants this right now it’s THERE FOR YOU!!!!!! It’s white classy silk draping and it elevates the look of your whole wedding!! Incredible! They also have a sweetheart room so you and your glam team can set up in there it helped me do touch ups and just take a minute before we started our walkout I loved those moments alone with my husband!! They also have a ceremony courtyard they can set up for you which is so glam and classy and has these greenery bushes that frame the whole set up it’s magnificent!!! They have a DJ set up & lights that adjust to the music I mean talk about vibe and their dance floor is big!!! We had a guest list of 75 and all 75 showed up and were dancing it was incredible!!! Let me tell you again they just offer everything and I’m no Millionare I’ve been on TikTok and see every venue is 20k or 30k minimum so it’s very discouraging to a new happy bride it makes you feel like you either need to be loaded or not have a wedding but that’s not true. I am beyond fortunate that my family gifted me booking Topos for our wedding and it was the best priced and most beautiful annd offered everything and perfect for us!! Also if you need anything Jorge the owner is available to connect with you anytime. If I ever had questions for me or my DJ or about centerpieces he was always available to chat and connect. What a game changer!!! I’m also booking my daughters venue elsewhere and it’s hard to get ahold of people sometimes it’s so upsetting and stressful (I WISH I booked it at Topos -_-) so let me tell you communication from Jorge really sets the tone for us and booking these events can be a lot you need a team that makes your life easier not harder. I couldn’t have imagined our night anywhere else it really was the most beautiful fun night of my life ill never forget it im so thankful i can’t say it enough to Jorge and his lovely perfect staff at Topos! I can’t wait to have dinner there soon just as a dinner guest.

Pond Oaks was the perfect wedding venue for my daughter's big day. From the moment we stepped onto the beautiful grounds, we were blown away by the elegance and charm of the space. The staff at Pond Oaks were absolutely fantastic - they dealt with almost everything, which was a huge lifesaver given that I only had 3 months to plan the entire wedding. They were responsive, professional, and truly went above and beyond to make sure the day was perfect. Our guests raved about the gorgeous setting and delicious food. I cannot recommend Pond Oaks highly enough for any couple looking for an exquisite, stress-free wedding experience.
