About

Wrought iron doors imported from Spain swing open to a chapel lined with oak beams and wooden pews. Camp Hosea is a Houston wedding venue in Anderson, Texas, where a bell tower chapel and a bohemian courtyard create an eclectic retreat far from the ordinary.

As a farmhouse wedding venue in Texas with a glamorous, eclectic spirit, Camp Hosea begins its ceremony in that bell tower chapel, then carries cocktail hour to an open-air courtyard. The glass-walled reception hall follows with vaulted ceilings and oversized wrought iron chandeliers built for a dramatic first dance, hosting up to 250 guests among oak trees and quiet countryside.

Every wedding is carried by spacious getting ready suites, dog-friendly ceremony spaces, flexible vendor packages for a curated wedding experience, and white glove planning services, with outdoor cocktail hour spaces set into the landscape. Packages are also available with flexible add-ons for catering, bar service, entertainment, florals, and more.

Spacious suites greet the couple as they prepare ahead of the vows. The chapel ceremony unfolds beneath vaulted ceilings as wrought iron chandeliers cast a warm glow, then cocktail hour moves to the courtyard, where the mix of rustic and glamorous details draws every eye. When the glass-walled hall opens, natural light and dramatic ironwork set the stage for a night that runs on its own energy.

Camp Hosea has been honored as a 2-time winner of Wedding Wire's Couples' Choice Award, most recently in 2025. Camp Hosea is backed by more than 20 years of experience within the Walters Wedding Estates family, and the 50+ reviews couples have left point to a venue quickly earning the region's trust. That depth of experience anchors every celebration on the property.

Beautiful, Intimate Wedding Venue!

We are beyond thrilled with our choice of Camp Hosea for our wedding venue! It was the perfect place for our intimate celebration, and we couldn’t have asked for a better setting. The chapel was beautifully serene, and the reception space was absolutely stunning. One of the standout features was the large glass back wall in the reception area, which provided the most breathtaking view of the sunset—it created a magical backdrop for our entire evening.

The entire staff at Camp Hosea was wonderful to work with. From the very beginning, they were so friendly, accommodating, and responsive, which was especially important since we were planning from out of town. They were always quick to respond to our calls and texts, making us feel completely supported throughout the process.

What we really appreciated was how flexible and understanding they were with us. We had a lot of specific ideas for our wedding, and Camp Hosea allowed us the freedom to bring our vision to life. They worked with us every step of the way, and their willingness to make adjustments helped us create the wedding of our dreams.

If you’re looking for a beautiful, intimate venue with amazing staff and a stunning setting, Camp Hosea is the place. We’re so grateful for everything they did to make our special day absolutely perfect.
