Houston, TX Weddings and Special Events

Memorable Downtown Weddings and More

Natural light floods through the translucent tented roof, illuminating the exposed brick, natural ivy and clean white décor of the room. Downtown Houston’s sparkling skyline sits just outside this indoor space with an outdoor feel. 

Veranda by *17, infused with romance and character, is a stellar setting for Houston, TX weddings, receptions or celebrations. The unique 215-capacity space features the best of both worlds: Its elegant climate-controlled indoor area opens up to Downtown through a wide window that provides picturesque panoramas, day and night. Consider our Veranda your personal blank slate. You can adorn the room with décor of your choosing to craft any experience, from a contemporary downtown reception to a more classic, traditional ceremony. 

If you are planning a smaller function, reserve one of our more intimate event spaces. Our AV-equipped banquet rooms are perfect for group gatherings, holiday parties or anniversary celebrations.
