Hotel ZaZa – Another Great Wedding Venue

As a wedding photographer in Houston, I sometimes have the opportunity to shoot special events in and around the Houston area.  to continue my other post on wedding reception venues, I wanted to add this one – the Hotel ZaZa.

I had the opportunity to attend the grand opening of the new Hotel ZaZa in the Museum District last year.  This used to be the Warwick Hotel and was remodeled.  Parties were EVERYWHERE and everyone had a great time.  The place is designed beautifully and the staff members I met were extremely friendly.  They have several very nice ballrooms (and honeymoon suites) and if you choose this location for your wedding reception, you can;t go wrong.

The images below are from the Grand Opening, but I wanted you to get and idea of how nice the rooms look and how special your day can be there.  If you want more information about the hotel, you can visit their web site: Hotel ZaZa

Some of Houston’s Wedding Venues

As a wedding photographer in the Houston area, I have been very fortunate to photograph some very beautiful weddings recently at some very nice venues.  Some of the Churches, Reception halls, and Hotel Ballrooms have been very nicely decorated and really set the tone for the wedding.  Most of the places have the “standard features” – Dance floor, room for the buffet tables or full kitchen to allow for service by caterers, room for the DJ and his equipment or the live band, and plenty of room for your guests.  You can either get the facility to decorate or you can get your own decorator.  Catering options are the same – you can use the staff at the venue, or in some cases, bring in your own caterer and servers.  this post is rather long and has quite a few more images than I normally post, so I hope you find something useful.

Here are some of the places I’ve shot:

Renaissance Houston Hotel Greenway Plaza

Ashton Gardens


Houston National Golf Club

St Edward Catholic Church

Brady’s Landing

Tuscany Villa

A. D. Bruce Religion Center (on the campus of the University of Houston)

Sweetwater Country Club

Foundry United Methodist Church

The Pavilion on Gessner

Paraiso Maravilla

Hotel Galvez on Galveston Island
