A year ago at this time, the stress of arranging the Oct. 15 wedding for my daughter was taking the usual toll on the Mother-of-the-Bride. If you are now in my shoes at the beginning of your planning, you can rest assured that Michele and her team will take care of you. The Amini family and staff are the kind of professionals you want in your corner to execute the bride and groom's dream. They listen carefully, offer recommendations based on years of experience, provide a variety of lovely decorations, and support the bridal party and family every step of the way. The food, cake, flower, and music vendors exceeded our expectations. Michele's relationship with these local providers made the process so much easier since we came from Houston and did not know the Conroe area. The online photos show the rustic, charming beauty of the Pavilion as it really is. This time of year, the fall foliage arrives to enhance an already elegant setting, where your guests can enjoy a comfortable indoor space or the quiet beauty of nature. The whole experience could not have been better. Reviewed on 08-10-2023

Aryanna Maneen(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-04-2021 We got married on 4-24-21 and it was more perfect than I could have dreamed up (and I did a lot of dreaming!). The venue was beautifully set up for a perfect weather day. The venue only does one event a day so they let us start getting ready early in the large bride and groom suites with hair and makeup, Gisela and her team, Bella Expressions. We had our ceremony on the outdoor island decorated by our wonderful florist More than A Memory and we hired Dulce Decor by Sylvia for arch and decor rentals. We hired Third Floor Strings for instrumentals and they were set up under the outdoor pergola which was just beautiful! The Pavilion staff rang the wedding bells once we said our vows, and we spent almost 2 hours taking pictures outdoors - around the lake, the fountains in the lake, on the dock, in front of the pine trees, on the island, near the outdoor patio, playing outdoor games with our guests, roasting s’mores on their outdoor fire pit, near the fountain and knockout roses - just so many gorgeous vignettes to capture! Our guests have told us over and over again how beautiful and fun the wedding and venue was, we could not be happier! They allow you to bring your own vendors, we set up mini donuts fried on site from Donut Junkie on the patio during cocktail hour, Affogato catering did all of our charcuterie and appetizers, Weddings Unlimited was our DJ and the venue let us do the cloud dance and indoor sparklers that weddings unlimited included in our package. We actually hired a Brazilian grill master who made our meat fresh on site because they will let you grill out back, and we provided our own alcohol which saves a ton, but hired bartenders and servers from Exquisite Taste Mobile Bartending. Ended the night roasting s’mores and a sparkler exit, with the most gorgeous firework displays by Celestial Displays - just a dream! The fireworks are set up on the other side of the lake so the display from the bridge and bank is amazing. Our guests stayed in the Woodlands and we chartered a bus for convenience (close 20 min drive but the Woodlands has so many more activities for out of town guests to get the best of the secluded venue but entertainment for the rest of the weekend). I only wish it went by slower in time so we could have soaked up every minute!! Reviewed on 08-05-2021

We didn’t utilize the bride and groom suites upstairs (though I did take a peek out of curiosity, and it’s stunning up there!) but the on-site kitchen was so incredibly helpful since we brought in all our own food. Michele, the owner, is amazing to work with and accommodated us for Covid twice without any extra fees or anything!
