I had no idea where to start with wedding planning and I am so glad we went with Butler's Courtyard because everything from the lighting down to the tiniest detail of flourishes on our wedding cakes was taken care of. I can't really explain how they make this magic happen but they do! Amber and her team are organized, have a flow to the wedding night, and throw an amazing party. Timothy and I were completely floored by how well everyone (especially us) were taken care of and had no idea a wedding (much less our own) would be this extra super special. Low stress doesn't even begin to describe the evening! We didn't worry about a thing! Difficult family member? No problem, Amber's got Texas charm and stellar boundary-setting skills. Feeling overwhelmed? Take a load off with the private dinner for just the two of you-- to get some romantic quiet in an evening of festivities. There's honestly nothing these folks haven't thought of! They run like a well-oiled machine. Butler's Courtyard and their team of vendors are truly setting a high bar for this industry. Each one of their vendors works seamlessly in with the Butler's Courtyard team. Somebody needs to do a case-study on just how they are pulling off this kind of smooth-as-butter integration. So, ok sold on the team! But wait-- this venue! Historic, beautiful, breath-taking. Decor is elegant and artfully placed. The space was perfect for our 75 person wedding reception and we so enjoyed getting to explore the Rose Cottage, The Shop and other nooks and crannies in this place. Houston is such a new and developing city-- we don't have many treasures like this historic bank (with a vault) that oozes with charm and majesty. Ok, still not sold? Let's talk about all-inclusive. This venue does it all and if they don't, they have a partner that will do it and do it better than anyone else in the industry. Shout out to our florist Rene from Lush Flowers (truly unbelievable the kind of vision and artistry these experts have), photographer Jessica from Eventsmith (organized, calm, fun to be around and skillfully captured every single magic moment throughout the whole night), DJ Mark (who played all of our favorites and created the perfect environment for us), and Cool Cow (which was a huge hit! Who doesn't want all-night ice cream?). During the planning process, Amber patiently listened to our ideas for what this reception could be, provided guidance for two engineers who had no idea of what wedding planning consisted of, and on the day of-- captured our personalities and created the most magical night of our lives. I am not a person pre-occupied with weddings, wedding-planning, or party-planning of any sort but I am completely obsessed with the magic being created at Butler's Courtyard. For two people who got married in the middle of a global pandemic (July 2020) in a backyard in the rain-- this 'two-years-long-awaited' wedding reception was more than we could have ever hoped or dreamed it would be. Our lives, marriage, and friends and family have been forever touched by the generosity, love, and care of the folks at Butler's Courtyard.

I understand it is supposed to be secluded, but my advice would be to call ahead and talk to someone there who can guide you, because all the county roads show up under different names in the GPS and Internet world. So just call ahead and you'll thank me. Just look for the place you think Mitt Romney might daylight at and you're there. Ok, so now that you're there you can take a deep breath and relax. The people there are really nice and attentive to your needs. Provided you have a need when there is an open bar at the wedding, mariachis, a DJ, and a frickin' ICE CREAM BAR. Not an Ice Cream "Bar" like a rocket pop...but a bar where you can go and load up on as much Ice Cream as you WANT...man...my inner fat kid was sated, you have any idea how hard that is to do?! Awesome idea to whoever came up with that. The outside are where the reception was held was gorgeous, lots of shade due to the big beautiful trees. In the evening they would turn on the hanging lights that were strung up throughout the yard and it was really nice. The dance floor was nice, seeing as I can't dance for crap..I would give it a 5/5 because it's been as good as any dance floor I might have stared at longingly. The food was good, we started with salads that were really good. The lettuce was crisp and it had peanuts in it, they served bowls of ranch and a vinaigrette I want to say. I had the ranch, but my friend had the vinaigrette and really enjoyed it so that's all I have to say about that. The entree was a chicken in mushroom sauce I wanna say. I just remember it was a little cold because we were greeting the wedding party when it was served so the wind got the better of it. It was still pretty great, oddly enough I remember the carrots served with it the best because I wanted more haha. The night went on and the servers kept the tables managed really well, you didn't have crap strewn all over the place which happens a lot at weddings I've been too. So good job on keeping it clean. We were shooed out at 10 pm, and lots of photos were taken. Overall it was a wonderful and amazing reception, but I can't rate it on my company and the wedding couple alone.

The flow for the Buffett should have been planned smarter as we were having to double back through the crowd with full hands to go get our Tea. - Drinks go last in a self serve Buffett because you need 2 hands to serve your plate. - With their giant kitchen island the buffet line could have had great flow if planned better. Zero lighting outside was awkward for everyone trying to park and walk to their cars. Everyone was mentioning that. As a former restaurant owner I know they're just asking for a liability lawsuit with their pitch dark grounds. I get wanting to maintain ambiance but on a dark night at least some soft lighting so you can see where you're walking is necessary. The food was good, and well presented, but salt less. When I asked one of the staff for Salt I was told they didn't have any. (?!) "Any? Not in the whole entire house?" Finally a lady brought out 1 set. (For 50+ people?) If you're not going to provide those silverware sets that include the little salt and pepper packages, go to Hobby Lobby and get those sets of multiple crystal miniature salt and pepper sets. An expense of probably about $30 to have a set for each table. The hostess was beautiful and the place is beautiful but I like my events to flow as smoothly as possible so the focus can be on the reason for celebrating and not on the disorganization.

When the bride and groom picked Morgan falls we picked on the beautiful sight of the venue. Morgan falls had all the space needed and offered many options to plan our wedding. Me as the mother/mother N law did not know all the details in planning a wedding but the journey began. I feel Morgan falls helped with that I called/emailed many times and I received prompted and detailed answers. The owners even gave me suggestion I didn't even know I needed. I had a lot to think about but when you have a venue that helps you along the way it's great. The owner has so much patient because I know at times I could have been high strung and she delt with me with so much patient and understanding that it made me calm down. On the day of the weeding all those concerns just faded away because the wedding just flowed and everyone was happy with smiles. I wanted to send out a special thank you for sharing on our special day and making it something to remember forever. I would highly recommend this venue it's not just a venue it's a special setting to start a new love life. Thank you from all of us. Re

It is furnished with many period antiques, as well as some early 20th century pieces. Admission is free. They're only open Saturday mornings. They're operated by the same volunteer crew as runs Friendswood's Brown Museum. For both, call first to make sure they're open because the volunteers don't always show up. When I visited, the docent was not exceptionally knowledgeable about the house or the Perry family; though she could assure me that they were not related to the Perry family who runs the meat markets and restaurants in the area. Nor was there much in the way of literature, plaques or labels explaining the house or the furnishings. My impression is that the Perry house only recently opened as a museum; perhaps they'll improve.

Parking is on the street and free. Inside the admission is $7 for adults and less for seniors and children. The museum is dedicated to the history of its namesake that chronicles its role as one of America's busiest ports primarily shipping petrochemicals, military aviation and the infamous Texas City disaster. The museum includes 3 movies that last about 5 minutes each. Two of the movies are about the disaster and the other about Texas City's history. There are numerous storyboards and pictures along with many artifacts to view. One thing I learned is that US military aviation had its beginnings here as the first place that the Army flew airplanes that it had purchased from the Wright brothers. Another is that Texas City is the 10th largest port in the US. This museum has a second floor that is dedicated to model trains. A local club meets here on Saturdays and run many different trains for the visitors that will appeal to adults and kids and at no extra cost. Budget about 45 minutes to visit this museum and longer if you come on a Saturday. It's a nice and informative museum for you to visit.
