About

On WeddingWire since 2020

Mara Villa is a picturesque wedding venue nestled in Katy, Texas. Situated just west of Houston, this estate offers couples an exclusive setting for their momentous occasion. The property is the sister venue of Agave Estates and the team has more than a decade of experience in the hospitality industry. These professionals will work hard to craft a wedding that is as opulent as it is intimate. They provide comprehensive packages and white glove service to ensure an unforgettable night of romance and refined elegance.

Facilities and Capacity
Mara Villa has a floor plan that allows events to flow easily from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. The indoor ceremony site features a backdrop of rustic wood that will charmingly frame you and your partner as you exchange your vows. After tying the knot, you can head to the main banquet hall, which seats 125 guests and boasts hardwood floors and sparkling chandeliers. This spacious dining room is set with ivory linens, metallic Chiavari chairs, and chic décor that lend it a sophisticated ambiance. From here, doors open up to the outdoor patio, a stone terrace with a high fence. This space is perfect for both open-air ceremonies and cocktail hours. Get-ready suites furnished with chandeliers are also available for up to four hours ahead of the festivities.

Services Offered
The team at Mara Villa is dedicated to creating a seamless and stress-free experience. Their services include an event planner who will meet with you two months ahead of your wedding and coordinate all the details. The venue’s impressive all-inclusive packages come with florals, photography, a mirrored photo booth, a professional DJ and MC, and even an officiant. Your custom-designed bouquet and cake flowers will be crafted by Bella Dia Floral, while world-class Tomas Ramos Photography will capture every moment of the celebration. Meanwhile, appetizers of beautifully displayed meats, cheese, and vegetables, and buffet or plated dinners will be prepared by the venue’s exclusive caterer, Two Forks Catering. In addition, packages come with two- or three-tiered vanilla cakes topped with buttercream frosting from Cake by Gina.

    Wedding Supurb!

    My husband and I had an absolute amazing experience at Mara Villa - Katy. From the moment we walked in we knew this was our place to hold our reception. From the get go Amanda was amazing and ready to help, she identified our needs, was very informative and ensured a smooth planning experience. Our coordinator Angela was out of this world, from her personality, energy and project planning she organized the night beyond our expectations and dreams. Angela is a very down to earth, sweet and caring person and she worked very hard behind the scenes to make sure everything went as smoothly as possible. The Mara Villa staff was quick and swift ensuring all guests were taken care of. What an amazing experience, 10 out of 10!

    Mara Villa's reply:

    Crystal, thank you for such an amazing review. I’m so glad you had such a good experience with us throughout your engagement. Your event was so unique and beautiful from your sofa backdrop, florals to your Belle dress. I loved getting to know you and working with you both. I wish you so much happiness in the future.

Hello! My name is Amanda Krocker and I’m your go-to-girl at Mara Villa. I’ve had the pleasure of managing this hidden gem of a venue in Katy since 2015 and I can’t wait to share this experience with you! In my spare time, you may catch me out and about with my family – my husband and I love taking our babies (both human and furry) to the local patio restaurants around town. Top-notch hospitality is not only a work hobby of mine, but also one of my favorite past times! Give me a call and let's talk about your dream wedding, I can't wait to connect!
