About this venue
The Parador is a historic wedding venue in Houston, Texas. Built in 1928, The Parador is a testament to the District Era's architectural artistry. Marring Mediterranean Style with Byzantine detail, this magnificent building is designated a Texas Historic Landmark and is the last of its kind in Houston's Museum District. The craftsmanship in creating this stunning five-sided structure is evident throughout The Parador. Intimate spaces evoking the splendor of yesteryear meet with the grandeur of stately lounges, echoing a place in time and a timeless beauty.
