One of the most fun things you can celebrate is an anniversary. 

And one of the best places to celebrate just about anything is across the swath of culture and diversity of Houston. Every time I come back to celebrate something in my hometown, I’m stoked because I know no matter what we do, no matter where we go, it’s gonna be a blast because that’s what we do in Htown. 

Hosting a Houston anniversary celebration presents so many options — for fun, for romance, for exploring something new, or creating an exciting experience to gather your friends and family once again. 

On top of that, an anniversary party brings about so many memories that you want to honor with just the right setting, vibe, food and drinks to imbibe. First year, 10th year, 40th. You want your unique anniversary celebration to be something you can hang your hat on as an achievement as momentous as the anniversary itself. 

Once you’ve been able to chew on these ideas, it’s time to go ahead and save the date all over again and book your high quality venue for that special anniversary celebration. 

And you can reserve the right venue for your event knowing confidently that it’s been verified and vetted to ensure the space and the people behind it can deliver for you.

Lowkey Anniversary

Dining Out at The Lymbar

The Lymbar offers options to explore your adventurous side in an extremely laid back environment.

You can sit at their quaint bar and explore the art of cocktail making live and up close. Or you can opt for a private dining room in a warm and inviting setting with an unforgettable dining experience, excellent service, and tantalizing cocktails. 

Nestled in Midtown, the venue takes influences from Latin, South American and Mediterranean influence with barrel-aged spirits and fusion food. 

A Photoshoot at The Oak Atelier 

What about an anniversary photo shoot? The Oak Atelier has a nurturing space ready for a picture perfect outing without too much fuss or extravagances. 

Of course, if you want to take things up another level, there are plenty of Htown venues that offer a wide variety of spaces for photo (and video) shoots, in case you want to go all out, or invite a bigger group to take part. 

Fun For You and Your Crew 

It can be an exhilarating challenge trying to track down a place for a bigger crowd with more people, whether it’s to bring younger ones along, the grandkids or extended family, or even to extend an invite to your adult friends and their families to celebrate with you. 

The Escape Game Houston at The Galleria 

Featuring several game rooms to explore your enthusiasm for problem solving, cracking puzzles and having a blast with a smaller group. 

Each of the options at The Escape Game Houston is for up to eight people, including rooms named The Depths, Special Ops: Mysterious Market, and The Heist, which features an experience trying to track an art thief. 

Lounge at Mirage 38

Perhaps y’all fell in love around a firepit, sipping something tasty and puffing on cigars, as Texans are wont to do (especially while camping). 

The Lounge at Mirage 38 features super comfy sofas, an outdoor patio with a view, as well as a smoking lounge complete with food and drinks for the evening. 

Their space can accommodate up to 12 people, but also tailors to a smaller crowd if you please. On the other side, you could pivot to take on more space and people with the craft cocktail bar option, allowing for up to 120 seats and 150 people standing. 

The Wine Room at Gauchos Do Sul

Fit for an intimate setting or a small gathering, the Gauchos Do Sul Wine Room can provide a perfect experience for those that are into discovering new varieties and revisiting their favorites. 

And in case there’s a big game you can’t miss, or even a video or slideshow you want to share, they have a tucked-away TV for whatever you need. 

Karaoke Room at Izakaya Hi

When you want to belt it out and sing from the rooftops about your anniversary, what better than a little karaoke?

You can choose from the small (up to 12 guests) or the large (up to 15 people) karaoke room. There’s also an exceptional stage area experience that accommodates more people, to dine in style before or after your singing extravaganza. 

Plus, Izakaya Hi features a warm ambiance and savory Japanese flavors to elevate the evening. 

Big & Bold Anniversary Celebration Ideas

For those big anniversary celebrations, here are some options for more than 10 people, and some ideas for bigger crowds of 20-plus, too. 

Bowling & Bites at Pinstripes 

It’s a bit ridiculous how much one venue has to offer — but if you want to blend engaging activities with a dynamic atmosphere and sophisticated yet approachable dining, then Pinstripes is the place for you. 

More a bowling palace than your typical bowling alley, Pinstripes features comfortable couches in their bowling alley, additional games and an outdoor dining experience, as well as several larger rooms you can book to host a larger crowd of loved ones. 

You could go from bowling to dining and back again, or sit around the firepit and soak in all the surroundings.

You can bring a bigger crowd, or downscale for a more intimate experience as well in this charming brick house that is home to one-of-a-kind African art curated by journalist and art dealer Lloyd Gite. 

There’s space for dining as well, and the venue allows for external catering to be brought onsite. 

Outdoors & Adventure at The Oaks

If you’re looking to celebrate outside of Houston proper, The Oaks in Katy offers up an amazing patio space that can seat up to 38 people in a natural setting in harmony with the surrounding nature.

VIP Conference Room at Athena Gun Club
