Question

Will your wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The Tea Ceremony will be held at the groom’s residence in the morning, reserved for the bridal party and immediate family only. Our afternoon ceremony will be outdoors in the garden, cocktail hour will be outdoors as well, and the reception will take place indoors. Guests will walk to the garden on paved pathways, but will need to step on grass briefly to take their seats. For that reason, stiletto or otherwise-thin heels are not recommended.

Question

What is the weather and climate like?

Answer

In October, the weather in Houston can still be a bit warm. While it's not as hot as summer, it can still feel a little warm, especially during the day. But with lower humidity and cooler evenings, it’s definitely more comfortable and perfect for an outdoor wedding ceremony.
