When translated from French, Chateau Nouvelle means ‘The New Castle.’ This stunning estate, formerly known as Chateau Cocomar, captured the attention of the owners of Sandlewood Manor as a possibility to take the exceptional service and options available at Sandlewood and branch into a new setting. Thus was born, Chateau Nouvelle! Our dream is to take the beautiful space that was already here and reimagine it with all the amazing possibilities!
Discover Chateau Nouvelle and make your dream wedding a reality!

Reviews of Chateau Nouvelle
Amazing Photoshoot Experience for our Marketing Campaign!
Since the new ownership was established this past fall, the owners have painted the entire building, revamped the landscaping and have added some AMAZING new fixtures and upgrades to this venue (to say the least)!!!
If I was getting married and did not run away to the beach, I would absolutely choose Chateau Nouvelle. I actually hosted my daughter's 5th birthday party here and this venue holds a special place in my heart. I would be doing a disservice by not sharing a positive, honest, heartfelt review.
The new team is also AMAZING and the owners are hitting the ground running with this place. It's so exciting to see God blessing Chateau Nouvelle with such wonderful people, positive vibes and great energy.
I believe that any client that books this venue will have nothing short of a SPECTACULAR wedding day.
Thank you so much Chateau Nouvelle for your amazing hospitality during our marketing campaign photoshoot, ya'll are truly wonderful, keep up the great work!
Yours Truly,

This gorgeous castle is at the top of our preferred list for brides looking for bigger and more gorgeous! Not only is the chateau beautiful but the people who work there are as well. If you are looking for an amazing Houston wedding venue that you can do your ceremony and reception at PLUS getting ready then look no further. The Chateau Cocomar team will take excellent care of you while you have your dream come true wedding. We love Chateau Cocomar!
We had just provided DJ/MC & lighting services for a wedding there on July 28, 2017 and it DID live up to the hype that people had told me about it. When people tell you this place is GORGEOUS, they are not lying one bit. From the artwork details to the marble floors, it is AMAZING! When we added in our uplighting, I was honestly a little worried that it might take away from the beauty of the venue, but it did not one bit. It just further helped the beauty out, in my opinion. The coordinator, Jenika Gonzales and her team, were on point all night long to ensure the wedding went off without a hitch. It was so great working with all of the vendors that we did that night. If you are still searching for the venue that will separate you from all of your friends with all of the rustic venues in the Houston area, just choose Chateau Cocomar and you will NOT regret it one bit! We look forward to more weddings here in the future!
