Nice place with curated selection of home goods, stationeries and unique gift items. Sales staff are friendly and helpful. Although they have a kid section, I don’t recommend taking young children, since there are a lot of expensive fragile items on table displays.

I ordered flatware accessories in February 2021. My credit card was charged immediately despite the fact that I never received a confirmation email for the order. After at least seven phone calls, each giving a supposed reason why I received no updates, I turned it over to my credit card to dispute the charge. They are a scam business in my experience.

Events is a neat little shop with all manner of fairly high-end trinkets. Its a great place to visit in search of unique and off-the-wall gifts, as well some fancy plateware, pens, gift wrap, and so on. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.

Unprofessional services, broken, promises, failure communicate.We decided to work with Events Gifts for our mother’s funeral service program based on their reputation and the “superior service experience,” described on their website. We were on a strict timeline and after detailed discussion about the design and quality we wanted, we were assured that they could meet our needs. However, what we experienced over 6 weeks was a disregard for our timelines and very poor communication that failed to keep us updated about changes/problems.Our emails, calls, and messages for updates were frequently ignored, despite assurances that the owner would follow up with us. The store owner, Regina, provided poor service and was untruthful in her communications with us. We were unable to complete this important project because the owner did not act in good faith, despite countless interactions with her and her staff. I would NOT recommend working with Events.

Events has always been a top-notch store, with a wonderful variety of gifts, including crystal and china. However, overpriced on some things.

Wow! I haven’t been to this store since before they moved from W.gray and they had different owners. I was blown away by their customer service and products. The owner Regina Garcia is an interior decorator and is so incredibly talented and helpful! Their entire staff is great! Thank you Events for helping me put my Christmas decoration together. I’ll definitely be back!

Wonderful shop full of high end gifts as well as more moderately priced merchandise such as amazing greeting cards and yummy candles. Something for everyone, for sure. Very Great staff was eager to help. Not the typical type of store I would shop in but I will definitely be back. 5 stars for sure.

Events is very proud of their items according to the pricing. Staff a little on the rude side. Will not be returning. Much better alternatives out there.

Went to the new store a few months ago, was expecting the same great selection as the W. Gray location. SO disappointing, it wasnt just a move....the old location was just wonderful.

The most embarrassing thing near the River Oaks area is the wedding stationery department at Events Gifts.We were so excited to do our wedding invitations with the stationery department, but after thoroughly planning ahead and thus hoping to send out invitations at the beginning of January, they have failed to meet wedding timeline, professionalism and timely customer service expectations.First, at our face to face invitation design meeting, the stationery department did not suggest to us a way for guests to know the wedding website with wedding registry information. When my fiancé and I were packaging the wedding invitations + card inserts we realized that it would be helpful to send this information to our guests. My fiance and I called Events Gifts as soon as we noticed this was missing. The stationery department was unable to be reached for 3 days and after a few messages left with an employee, no return phone call was ever made. I decided to show up in person to let the stationery department know that we will need to add a wedding website card insert to our order as soon as possible. She did not seem to have any intention of returning our phone calls or addressing our concern. I was completely baffled, since she is supposed to be an experienced wedding stationery professional and should have walked us through all the appropriate information for the cards. We asked her to help us with every step of the process since, having never been married before, we had no idea what information is necessary. She had no concern that days before our printing process was to be complete, our guests would not have had any clue of how to access our wedding website or registries. Very unprofessional.Second, they said they do a 15% discount off wedding stationery services and discounted our wedding invitation purchase and then when we went to go pick up our invitations weeks later, they said that we could not get 15% off the printing for the invitations. The stationery department was VERY clear of the invitation + printing services that were going to be done at the first time of purchase, but failed to include 15% off the printing portion without giving us a hard time. One employee left us with an unsettling attitude, because he did not understand initially that our entire invitation service was supposed to be for ONE wedding stationery service. Why in the world would we not pay for everything upfront to get the 15% for the stationery services if we knew that we would be making another payment when picking up the invitations themselves? They shouldve disclosed that we would be needing to pay for printing the wedding invitation envelopes when we picked them up, so that we would pay for it all during the first day of purchase.Lastly, when we received the printed envelopes, we noticed 24 (out of ~130 printed envelopes!) of the invitations had cut off guest names in the address lines. We were so disappointed to find almost 20% of our wedding envelopes had been messed up. We went back to Events Gifts to find a resolution in a timely manner, but the stationery department was out of town and out of reach. When we finally got in touch with them, they asked us to bring in the extra envelopes we had ordered and paid for (to be used for additional invitations that weren’t to be printed) so that they could use those. We bought those extras to use ourselves, not as a contingency for Events to use in case they messed up!Such distasteful and unprofessional experiences with Events Gifts stationery department. I would NOT recommend using them if youre looking for effective, efficient, or up-to-date wedding services.Less than 3 months until our destination wedding day, and this has been the only stressful and disappointing experience thus far.On top of it all, we had set up a wedding registry at Events Gifts, but will be deleting it.STAY AWAY.

Very tasteful place for all types of events and gatherings. The customer service of the staff is like stepping into the home of a Thomas Kinkaid painting. Best place in Houston by far.

Luxurious gifts and home decor. $$$$ Very expensive but when on sale they knock down 40 to 50% off and then you can get a pretty good deal.
