Dream Wedding
Highly recommend Dunleith Historic Inn as a wedding venue! They accommodated close to 200 guests for my wedding. Every detail was taken care of, even ones I did not think of. Everyone still to this day comments about how beautiful and perfect the day was. They do their catering in house and it was delicious! I am so picky about wedding food but I enjoyed every single dish! Seriously it was the perfect day from start to finish!
The Perfect Wedding Venue
Dunleith is the perfect wedding venue. The world is your oyster at this venue. Anything you want out of your wedding they can make it happen. You want a New Orleans wedding but a small town intimate environment then this is the place to be. The service is incredible. Everyone is so friendly. The rooms on site are not only convenient but also some of the nicest rooms you could stay in. Natchez also makes the best setting for out of town guest to explore. Dunleith makes a bride feel like she is becoming part of a family and not just another wedding on their calendar. I wasn’t planning on liking dunleith, in fact I had already started planning my wedding somewhere else, but once you view dunleith and let your mind wonder on what you can create there for your special day you will leave with your venue booked. Promise. Also the Castle Restaurant and Pub makes the dreamiest and easiest rehearsal dinner location. It’s a win all the way around.
