I did…read morenot realize that YouTube even came out and did formal trainings to get your channel even better, but I was invited to this exclusive event. This location seemed to be physically in the middle of the city. Much construction along my route made me want to simply turn around and go home, but I trekked to the final destination. When I arrived, I must admit that the building itself seemed rather on the positive side of eye candy. Once YouTube opened up the event for all the exclusive content creators, you could see that this facility is really well maintained and is designed to give an elegant outing for whomever chooses to rent this place. The staff, who I would assume were part of the accommodations, were really nice and courteous the entire time all of us were in attendance. I am not certain if the food was part of the venue's menu or if YouTube purchased the food from some other establishment. If I get to go here again and eat there food, I will update my review accordingly.

I had my wedding here in March 2019 and was very pleased we chose Dukessa. If you're looking for an…read moreintimate wedding venue in Houston city area, I would suggest you look here. This venue is breath taking and romantic, especially during the evening. The courtyard is an added bonus for a romantic feel. There is also a terrace that over looks the courtyard from the reception area, which also adds the gorgeous view. The food and bartender service were great! I didn't receive any complaints from my guest. I received compliments for the food and drinks more than anything. We worked with the venue coordinator and they are always available. We worked with Laura and Rebecca at first. Towards the date of our wedding someone else stepped in at our last meeting. Something that would worry brides is working with someone new but the transition worked out perfectly.

I confronted the "owner" about this and he felt justified to do so because he "is the owner" This is extremely unprofessional and inconsiderate. Especially a child's birthday! Dangerous to allow strangers to roam around the venue! Who does that! I would not recommend this place to rent, EVER! Additionally, they sell it as a "kitchen" that is available but there are always people in their offices and the kitchen does not have any supplies available and the fridge is full! The open space is nice but that is about it. It's awkward that the "owner" is there and touring people at any given moment without regards to your privacy and honoring your time that you pay to have! Hands down, super unprofessional and will never consider this place again

Excellent co-working space, for many reasons:…read more Team - highly communicative, positive, consistently checking in (though not so much to seem awkward). Michael and Jay are putting together something that can succeed, and scale if they choose to. Taco Tuesday with the Ted Talks is a well-received break. Space - multiple sizes of office option, comfortable public work spaces, the presentation space is separate from the offices, the facilities are all high quality, and the deck is going in - they never stop looking to improve. Setting is outstanding - being 3rd floor, you see big sky and trees. Parking is ample and at no cost. Tenants - everyone is friendly and professional, curious about other businesses, and focused on their own. If you are considering co-working, by all means stop in - don't let it be the place you wish you'd checked out before signing up somewhere else.

This is a large wedding or party venue on the northeast side of Houston that looks a bit like a…read morecastle or old style European estate from the front. Our granddaughter and her husband were married there. As the weather was still quite hot outside we were grateful they had decided on an indoors wedding. The downstairs floor is for large group functions like wedding ceremonies, receptions and dancing, the upstairs has a place for bride and groom and their attendants to dress and socialize prior to the wedding. There is an area that can be used for a bar as well as one for serving food, a kitchen with large countertops and refrigerators is adjoining. The wedding ceremony took place on a large stage with floor to ceiling windows behind and a view of the heavily forested grounds. There is plenty of parking space out in front and a large covered driveway for guests to be dropped off or for the newlyweds to depart from. About the only drawback we observed was that it could be very loud at times when the DJ was speaking over the sound system or the music was playing. So many hard surfaces that sound was reflected and made it hard to hear what was being said. This may have been more to do with the person acting as the sound person who set up her own equipment up on the second floor. I think if the system had been on the lower floor it would have been better so keep this in mind if you decide to do a wedding here. I used both my regular digital camera and one converted for infrared.

One of the worst experiences imaginable -- avoid at all costs…read more If I could give this venue zero stars, I would. The entire experience with their so-called "wedding specialist," Emma Montoya, was a nightmare from start to finish. Her conduct was not only grossly unprofessional, but outright rude and condescending. Before we officially booked the venue, we had a great experience with Caley, the wedding specialist we originally worked with. She was kind, helpful, responsive, and part of the reason we felt confident moving forward with this venue. Unfortunately, shortly after we signed our contract, Caley must have quit, because we were suddenly reassigned to Emma Montoya -- and from that point on, everything went downhill. From the beginning of our interactions with Emma, communication was a mess. Emails were constantly misdirected to the wrong couple, scheduled meetings were ignored or mishandled, and any questions we had about their in-house DJ services were either brushed off or met with unclear, incomplete responses. Our first scheduled meeting with their DJ never happened -- he simply didn't show up. No email, no call, no apology. And we didn't hear from anyone at the venue about it for the entire week following. It was incredibly unprofessional and disappointing. That said, to be fair, the DJ ultimately delivered a great performance at the wedding. His sets were fun, energetic, and the crowd really enjoyed the music. Unfortunately, the poor communication extended to other vendors included in The Springs' "all-inclusive" package. The florist, for example, never responded to me -- not once. I would strongly caution any couples against using the venue's preferred vendor list. While it may sound convenient, the lack of communication and reliability is not worth the risk. I highly recommend sourcing your own vendors instead. The most frustrating experience, by far, came with our wedding rehearsal. We had confirmed multiple times via emailthat it was scheduled for September 18th -- the day before our wedding. Despite this, when we arrived with our full wedding party, Emma coldly told us there was no record of our rehearsal and demanded we leave -- making no effort to understand the situation or offer a solution. Shortly after, the site coordinator returned with security to escort us off the property, treating us like trespassers instead of the couple getting married there the next day. Even with clear documentation showing that we had confirmed the date, no one took accountability for the venue's error. Emma was unapologetic and dismissive throughout. On our actual wedding day, Emma continued with the same brash attitude. Our outside wedding planner -- a seasoned professional -- had her own issues with Emma, describing her as rude and uncooperative. It's clear that this is her standard behavior, not a one-off incident. Emma's bio says she "loves helping couples" and is passionate about weddings, but nothing in her behavior reflects that. She lacks basic communication skills, professionalism, and the ability to manage even the simplest logistical tasks with respect and grace. One of the few bright spots -- aside from the DJ's performance -- was the catered bar service, which was excellent. The drinks were great and the bar staff was friendly and efficient. But unfortunately, no amount of good music or cocktails can make up for the complete lack of professionalism, empathy, and organization that we encountered at this venue after booking. If you're planning your wedding, I strongly encourage you to stay far away from The Springs -- and especially from their all-inclusive package and vendor list. What should have been a joyful and exciting experience turned into one of the most stressful and disappointing chapters of our planning process. You only get one wedding day. Don't trust it to people who don't treat it with the care and respect it deserves.
