Chateau Golf and Country Club 

5.0

Kenner, LA
  • Up to 500 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Out staff will work with you on selecting the right menu and the perfect room for your special occasion. Our talented Chefs are also available to create a one of a kind menu for you and tailor it to your needs.

Our wedding at Chateau was nothing short of phenomenal. We had our ceremony and reception here, and I wouldn’t change a single thing. We were able to take photos on the golf course before the ceremony and it was gorgeous during golden hour! We loved that our guests didn’t need to drive to a different location between the ceremony and reception. All of the staff are amazing. My husband and I were catered to all night and our drinks were never empty. The food was delicious and the drinks were great too. We loved having the tables, chairs, table cloths, other decor, food, drinks, and more all provided for us. Some venues were charging per table and chair and requiring caterers for food and drinks, so it really made everything much easier to have it all provided by the venue. Any time we had questions leading up to the wedding, the staff was so helpful. I hardly had to worry about a single thing when it came to the venue, because Chateau handled it all for us. I could go on and on about how amazing everything was, but just take my word for it: it was AMAZING. Look no further!!

The Balcony Ballroom 

5.0

Metairie, LA
  • Up to 176 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $14,800

When you’re in cahoots with The Balcony Ballroom, you get more than a wedding reception venue – you get everything you’ve ever dreamed of in one place. And that’s something no other wedding venue in New Orleans can do. With elegant open spaces and a throwback vibe from an era filled with glitz and glamour, a brand new high-end lighting system with projections you can customize, and cuisine tailor-made to accommodate an array of dietary needs, your day will be just that – yours.

Where do I even begin!!! The Balcony Ballroom has been family to my parents & I for as long as I can remember! I’ve worked so many brides wedding days there and see the way they operate so choosing them for my special day was a no brainer. From the day I booked, through a pandemic (original date 3/28/20), and to my new wedding date (9/18/20) Vanessa, Mike, and Jay were there every step of the way!! They were always a phone call away and helped me with every question or concern that I had! This place is THE. REAL. DEAL!!! They always go above & beyond for every single one of their couples! The food, service and the staff is unbeatable! My guests are still talking about how amazing everything was!! My husband & I can’t thank The Balcony enough for everything they did to make our day PERFECT! We can’t wait to have another celebration there down the road to renew our vows :)

The Alexander Room and Terrace 

5.0

Metairie, LA
  • Up to 325 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Located in the heart of Metairie, The Alexander Room and Terrace is truly a hidden gem. The Alexander Room was conceived and built by the International Brotherhood of Electricians in 1984. The intent was for The Alexander Room to be a contender among Metairie’s event venues. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the room was never marketed to the general public. In 2014, Troy and Cindy Timphony of Hobnobber Café were approached with the idea of taking over the catering, management and marketing of the Alexander Room. Over the course of the next few years improvements were made, menus prepared and website and social media added to bring you the polished jewel that is The Alexander Room and Terrace.

Mrs. Cindy, the Timphony family, & all of the staff here at The Alexander Room are the absolute best. Our wedding went off without a hitch, and was an absolute dream come true. From day one, Mrs. Cindy made sure to check in with our stress levels, and assure us that she would be there for anything we needed. To say we felt special, and taken care of, is such an understatement. The venue is incredible, with a spacious indoor, and a fabulous terrace overlooking the best parts of Metairie. The guests ate up the indoor/outdoor experience, and were all able to mingle very well with the layout. And the food —- off the charts. We got SO many compliments on the food! If you’re hesitating, don’t. This is the place for your special day.

The Cannery is a premiere New Orleans wedding and reception venue and serves other events such as company holiday parties, corporate conferences, business meetings, and luncheons.

After passing through the foyer, you’ll enter our expansive ballroom, set up any way you could imagine — from rows of chairs lined up for a motivational speaker to large round tables covered in flowers and bling…

Melissa, Stephanie and the team were all amazing! They kept us smiling the whole night. Before the big night they were easy to get in touch with, flexible and very hands on. I had no issues and they took great care of Eric and I. The food is so amazing !! Thanks for everything and I can’t recommend The Cannery enough

Margaret Place 

5.0

New Orleans, LA
  • Up to 180 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

Margaret Place is an ultra-boutique hotel that merges futuristic luxury with historic architecture. Designed and operated by young architect Trenton Gauthier, AIA, it is a living laboratory for advancing hospitality, residential design, and event production. Either as a hotel or an event venue, the property creates the feeling of staying at your friend’s mansion. It’s not for everyone, but for those who know™ it, it’s the obvious choice.

We loved everything about the Margaret Place. Communication was easy, the owner was quick with responses and accommodating for all of our questions and needs. The space is very modular so you can change the layout/floorplan to your exact desire. We had the ceremony followed by a second line while they flipped the space for the rehearsal. It was all so streamlined and when we got back the space had a whole different vibe. We had the dance floor in the loung, which made it a little more intimate and it looked amazing! Highly reccomend the Margaret Place

Royal Sonesta New Orleans 

5.0

New Orleans, LA
  • Up to 400 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $8,500

Located on world-famous Bourbon Street, The Royal Sonesta New Orleans effortlessly combines timeless elegance and southern refinement, setting itself apart from other French Quarter hotels. 483 guest rooms and suites, authentic hospitality, a Food is Art philosophy, wrought-iron balconies, and a lush courtyard create an experience unlike any other. Treat yourself to any of our on-site dining and entertainment venues, such as Restaurant R'evolution, PJ's Coffee Cafe, Desire Oyster Bar, The Jazz Playhouse, and Le Booze. This hotel is more than a place to meet or stay. We’re a premier destination for unforgettable getaways, weddings, and business, or social events.

My fiance and I met on Bourbon St, so we knew we needed to get married there, but we didn't want it to be a spring break style dirty booze fest. We are so lucky to have found the Royal Sonesta, a true hidden gem. Getting married in the courtyard was a dream. The fountain was such a beautiful and elegant touch. Getting to do the Second Line around the hotel (the busiest block) was the coolest thing ever. My guests LOVED IT. The amount of people who stopped and danced with us was unreal. The food was the best I've ever had at a wedding, and so may of my guests told me so. The spread was insane, from cocktail hour to the raw bar...so delicious and epic. Get the chargrilled oyster attendant, people could not stop talking about and I felt so bougie. The cake was included in our wedding package and was absolutely delicious. I can't wait to eat it again on our anniversary! Now the best for last, the Royal Sonesta staff. We planned everything with Olivia, who sadly left a couple weeks before our big day, but Monique handled everything on our wedding day and was the kindest, most attentive queen. We love her forever! The planning process was a breeze, it felt like I was planning an epic party with a good friend. Olivia made an overwhelming process so fun and enjoyable! From the moment I checked in, everyone treated us and our family like royalty. There were so many small thoughtful touches, like cookies waiting in my mother in laws room. I'll cherish that day forever and so much of the reason is because of how special the Royal Sonesta made it.

The Marigny Opera House, alone in its rustic beauty and authentic New Orleans charm, is a special place that values both preservation and progress. A solar-paneled roof shelters newly restored stained glass windows in this decommissioned 1853 German Catholic Church. When you plan an event here, your patronage enables us to continue supporting local artists through our highly successful nonprofit arts programming. We are home to a ballet company, 2-3 weekly music performances, and numerous other culture bearers of New Orleans, from theatre to opera and beyond. You bolster the vibrant arts landscape we have endeavored to offer New Orleans and those who call it home. With your support, you join us in the mission of bringing the arts to all. We hope you bring your event here and give your guests an authentic New Orleans experience unlike any other.

Bill and the team at Marigny Opera House were a breeze to work with! He was very thorough and responsive when we had any questions and his spirit in general was so kind. We wanted a venue with true New Orleans history and beauty, and the MOH provided that no matter if we were out front, inside, or in the courtyard. If you're looking for a venue outside of the Quarter, we HIGHLY recommend. Our guests were very impressed, and we can't wait to return to experience some of their performing arts shows. Thank you MOH!
