Amazing wedding thanks to Citadel

Despite our plans being slightly derailed due to the coronavirus we had the most magical wedding day... and we can thank the Citadel! What an incredibly beautiful space for a wedding. The beauty of the ballroom itself speaks for itself. The coordinator and staff were amazing at dealing with all of our last-minute adjustments, and my guests had nothing but great things to say. The day ran smoothly, and we can’t wait to have another event here in the future!

Citadel is the BEST - in every way!!

You know when you walk into something that just takes your breath away - that is Citadel!! It is stunning - no pictures can do it justice - you have to go for yourself and take a tour ....and its not in your face type of stunning either ---its classically understated and elegant and just exudes luxury without being loud...its the perfect mix of elegance and beauty ...but however you want to describe it, it really leaves a great first impression on everyone who walks in there...i have been receiving so many compliments about how stunning our wedding was! Best part is that they have an amazing venue management team there with Rebecca leading the way and that made our evening so smooth and stress-free knowing that every little detail was taken care of in advance. The food is the best banquet food I have ever had! Getting rave reviews on the food as well. If I could give more than 5-stars to Citadel staff - I would! Call them - You would love having your wedding there!

Most amazing place in houston to host a wedding

Mind Blowing. True castle hidden in heart of Houston. Place for a Royal Prince and Princess to wed. From start to finish, Sarah and her staff went all out. They were very accommodating and flexible. For what they offer in the venue, the price is a steal. Worth every penny and more. They made my daughter's wedding a truly Royal experience. Our food restrictions were strict ( no eggs, garlic or onions ) and their master chef went all out and the food was AMAZING!!! For me and my family, this is the only venue we will ever use in our life for any event that we are hosting. LOVE YOU GUYS FOR WHAT YOU DID!!!! THANKING YOU WITH A HUMBLE HEART, Dipak Bhatt
