Finding a wedding venue for your big day can be a laborious process, even without taking into consideration any values you may hold. Perhaps you want to support certain businesses, but even finding a list of that or sites with specific filters may be hard.
In 2023, we have the luxury of being able to pick and choose where we want to put our money and who we want to support. You may not even know what or who you want to support until you see the options in front of you. However, if you do not know what the options are out there, you won’t know what to pick.
At Bring Joy we have looked at several different websites to compile a list of venues that whether they are women owned or not, get our approval. The fact that these venues are owned by women are an added bonus. As a woman owned business ourselves, we wanted to spotlight those women owned venues in the wedding arena to continue to shine a light on others.
For the list, first and foremost, these venues are of course owned by women. We also took into consideration the reviews and stars based off of several different sites. We also wanted to let you know the approximate guest size, starting budget if we could find it and location in proximity to the greater Houston area.
