AvantGarden, with its rich history and vintage charm, offers a picturesque setting for weddings in Houston's vibrant Montrose area. Built in 1896, this mansion has witnessed the evolution of the city while maintaining its unique character. Restored to its former glory in 2007, it now stands as a testament to Houston's architectural heritage, providing a romantic backdrop for couples on their special day. The venue's capacity to host up to 150 guests makes it an ideal choice for both intimate gatherings and grand celebrations.
The garden and back patio offer serene settings for exchanging vows, with the historic Kraft house enhancing the ambiance with its turn-of-the-century elegance. The AvantRoom, with its warm and inviting atmosphere, is perfect for cocktail hours, allowing guests to mingle and enjoy the beginning of the festivities. The venue's commitment to providing a seamless experience is evident in the inclusion of essential amenities such as lighting, sound equipment, and elegant furnishings.
Mexican culinary delights are a cornerstone of the AvantGarden experience, with international dining options that cater to a variety of tastes. Whether served buffet-style or family-style, the meals promise to be as memorable as the day itself. The dessert station and coffee bar, alongside a traditional wedding cake, offer a sweet finale to the dining experience. The professional team at AvantGarden ensures that every detail is taken care of, from bartending services to the overall coordination of the event.
The mansion's storied past adds a layer of intrigue to the venue. Once a playground for the young Howard Hughes, it later became a creative hub known as The Mausoleum and Helios, before being transformed into the current event space. Mariana Lemesoff's dedication to the arts and culture continues to breathe life into AvantGarden, making it a place where history and celebration meet.
The upstairs lounge and front court provide additional spaces for guests to enjoy the festivities, with fully stocked bars serving a selection of cocktails, fine wines and sangrias. Each corner of AvantGarden exudes a sense of history and romance, making it more than just a venue—it's a place where memories are made and the past is honored in every celebration.
