Modern, Elegant & Sophisticated

Our vibrant exterior architecture belies the modern, yet warm and inviting interior spaces. Floor-to-ceiling glass provides great views of the serene, inner-courtyard garden with its stunning rose-covered walkway, koi-stocked meditation pool, and paths that meander through the grounds — all enclosed by a spectacular 20 ft bamboo surround.

Are you are looking for a modern event venue in which to entertain your friends? One that is hip and stylish, yet comfortable and inviting? Then fifty-two-twenty-six elm could be the perfect place for your next event. We were just named one of the Top 10 wedding venues in Houston by Culture Map.

AIA AWARD-WINNING BUILDING

fifty-two-twenty-six is well-known amongst Houston architects. The building’s innovative use of materials and elegantly designed interiors combined to win the American Institute of Architects prestigious “Building of the Year” design award for Texas. What other Houston wedding venues can say that?

Indoor and Outdoor
event space

fifty-two-twenty-six offers a unique combination of indoor and outdoor spaces in which to entertain your guests. We are one of the most interesting wedding venues in Houston. The stylish Courtyard Room looks out onto a beautiful courtyard, which can seat up to 70 persons for dining. The two areas also combine to create the perfect space for an indoor/outdoor cocktail reception. This allows you to host a pre-event cocktail party and then move to the adjoining Studio for a seated dinner.

A PERFECT WEDDING VENUE

The versatile Studio also has 20 ft ceilings. It measures 40 x 60 feet and can accommodate up to 150 seated banquet style with a dance floor. This configuration is perfect for wedding receptions. It can also be configured as a ballroom with dramatic lighting, a dance floor and stage for a band. Both spaces are suitable for virtually any type of event from casual to formal — whether sipping cocktails and nibbling on hors d’oeuvre, dining in high-style, or hosting more elaborate business oriented events.
