Lovely venue option for outdoors and nature style
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!
