Hilltop Arboretum provides a picturesque backdrop for couples seeking a unique, nature-inspired wedding experience.

Why you'll love this venue

Venue considerations

  • No dedicated areas for getting ready
  • No in-house lighting and sound packages available
  • Couple must handle cleanup and setup
We held our wedding reception at the Hilltop Arboretum and rented the auditorium and pavilion. The balance was perfect because guests could enjoy the outdoors but duck into the air conditioning whenever they needed to. The process of renting the space was seamless, and representatives were available to help us every step of the way so it was less stress for me during a very stressful time. The representative who was present the day of, Ms. Amy, went above and beyond to make sure it went smoothly for us. I really can't praise them, or the facility, enough. While we overpaid for other aspects of our wedding/reception, renting with Hilltop was actually worth every penny.

I loved my experience with the Lake House! Lauren was very attentive to me from day one; answering any questions I had and problem-solving when issues arrived. On the weekend of the wedding she kept everyone in line (which was needed) and made sure I had an amazing day. Our other vendors booked through the venue worked well with Lake House with the exception of one in particular, BR Classic Cars. If you choose to book with them try to have your venue looped as you book your getaway car because it seemed like they tried to double dip with us.

The Clancy House was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the very first interaction, their communication was clear, effective, and always on time. The quality of their work and value was exceptional - the space was gorgeous, well-kept, and incredibly clean. When it poured on our wedding day and we had to move the ceremony indoors, The Clancy House accommodated the space seamlessly and solved the situation so smoothly that the night ended up being absolutely perfect. Chelle, the venue coordinator and house manager, was an absolute delight to work with. She helped us coordinate with multiple vendors and executed our vision flawlessly. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding day at this stunning, flexible venue.

Metairie, LA

  • Starts at $12,000

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.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a chic vibe

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.

I had an absolutely amazing experience at our wedding venue. From start to finish, everything went smoothly and felt truly special. Dominique, our coordinator, was incredibly sweet and always willing to assist in any way we needed. She made the planning process so much easier. Courtney and her husband were also present on the day of the wedding and were such a huge help. It meant a lot to have them there and so involved. Our setup took several days, and the venue was incredibly accommodating, allowing us access for the entire week. That was a huge relief and made things so much less stressful. I also did multiple site visits with vendors beforehand, and they were flexible and welcoming every single time. One of the most special parts for me was spending the night before the wedding at the mansion with my girls. It gave us time to relax, connect, and made the morning of the wedding so much easier for hair and makeup. If I could do it all over again, I truly wouldn’t change a thing. I’m so grateful for the experience and would highly recommend this venue to any couple.

I could not pull off a wonderful review like this without a great venue partner. For brides looking for an all inclusive destination wedding location, the Canal Street is awesome and perfect. One of our happy clients: I am beyond grateful to have had Kristen as our wedding planner for our destination wedding at the Canal Street Inn. Planning a wedding from out of town can be overwhelming, but she made the entire process not just manageable, but truly enjoyable! From the very beginning, Kristen took the time to understand our vision and preferences. She provided invaluable insights into the local culture and customs, ensuring that our wedding was a beautiful blend of our personal touch and the charm of the destination. What impressed me the most was her incredible organization and communication skills. Despite the distance Kristen kept us informed every step of the way, coordinating everything from vendor bookings to logistics. She always made time to answer all our questions, making us feel connected and supported throughout the planning process. On our wedding day, Kristen and her team worked tirelessly to ensure that everything went perfectly. They managed all the details seamlessly, allowing us to focus on celebrating with our family and friends. It was truly a dream come true, and I was able to enjoy every moment without any stress. Thank you, Kristen and PK Events for your dedication, creativity, and hard work. You turned our destination wedding into a magical experience that we and our guests will cherish forever. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding, especially if you’re looking for someone who can expertly handle the complexities of a destination event!- Love, September Bride

We had an open bar with a set price per drink which was also very fair. Catering was done from a menu with pricing per sheet pan and you could just order as much as you'd like.

Our 100 person wedding at Paradigm Gardens in April of 2024 was perfect. For starters, their Private Events Director Karen is unparalleled. Communication was clear and consistent from the very beginning, and we never felt like they were trying to upsell us. As two more laid-back brides, she made sure we didn't overlook any important details. If your food is the most important aspect of your wedding, stop reading this and call Paradigm Gardens to book now. Our budget was fairly limited, but Chef Pat over at Karibu Kitchen (Paradigm Gardens' Catering) made the most of every dollar we spent. The food and bar packages were, hands down, the best we encountered at any venue in New Orleans. We had so much fun designing our custom menu with Chef Pat, and the tasting at Tchoup yard was one of our favorite parts of the planning process. Our family and friends still tell us it was the best food they've ever had at any wedding. The team even went out of their way to make sure our bar included our favorite brand of pickle vodka shots which turned out to be one of the highlights of the night. The location in Central City was perfect. It allowed us to have our rehearsal dinner downtown, and also take our pre-ceremony pictures at Audubon Park without requiring much driving time to and from the venue. The lush garden was more than we could have asked for as a backdrop. We said our vows in a short ceremony then watched the sunset over cocktails and dinner. The jasmine was in full bloom which made for awesome photos. The goats were a big hit with our wedding guests and the outdoor kitchen acted as a sort of fiery centerpiece to the whole evening. We had a local DJ playing New Orleans bounce and spent the majority of the night on the dance floor under the string lights. Without a massive budget, we anticipated having to compromise on a lot of aspects to be able to afford a wedding in New Orleans, but we couldn’t have been more wrong. We will forever be grateful to the folks at Paradigm Gardens for giving us the wedding of our dreams.

NOLA Brewing Co. was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. Their communication was effective and prompt, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. The open, large, and rustic space provided a great bar area for our guests to enjoy. The team even worked with us to create a special cocktail that perfectly captured the vibe of our wedding. The large space was perfect for the band we had, and the delicious pizza and other food options were a hit with all our guests. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day.

The Historic Swoop-Duggins was the perfect place for my husband and I to hold our wedding celebration! The house is beautiful all on its own and has a lot of interesting history, which was a major draw for us as we wanted to have a very New Orleans-style wedding. The proprietor/GM, Linda Novak, guided us through all the options and offered recommendations and helpful tips for vendors and second line bands. Chef Lisa took wonderful care in helping us create a delicious menu of Chicken and Andouille Jambalaya, blackened Swordfish, fingerling potatoes, house-made focaccia, chilled and grilled shrimp, and a seasonal vegetable salad. She was so attentive to ours and our guests' various dietary restrictions (we received compliments all night and all weekend long, even from locals!). The bar director, Taylor, curated fun and delicious cocktails and mocktails to bring the Nola spirit. Try the Baroness Spritz! Our special events coordinator Meghann and onsite venue coordinator Rashaad, helped us figure out every detail so that we could have a well thought-out and smooth evening curated to our vision. The night ran beautifully! Every person we spoke with had a favorite staff member who made them feel welcomed, at home, and taken care of. They were all wonderful! Special shoutout to Thyme for taking wonderful care of my husband and I all night long- making sure we got to eat the delicious food, had plenty of water and drinks to keep us going, and an overall warm-hearted delight (she was such a gem giving me beautiful words before I walked down the aisle)! My husband, myself, our family, and all of our friends who traveled from near and far, had a beautiful and unforgettable time!

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

Our experience with LUXXE by Crimson Quarter was nothing short of magical. From the very first conversation, it was clear that this isn’t just another wedding planning company—it’s a team that truly understands how to craft once-in-a-lifetime celebrations. Every detail of our elopement was curated with care, blending the elegance of a luxury wedding with the intimacy we wanted. The LUXXE team gave us access to New Orleans’ most stunning hidden-gem venues—places we never would have discovered on our own. They handled everything seamlessly: the officiant, design, photography, music, and even those little touches that made the day feel deeply personal to us. What really stood out was how customizable everything was. We never felt like we were picking from a “cookie-cutter” package. Instead, they listened to our story and vision, and created a celebration that felt uniquely ours. If you are considering an elopement or micro wedding, I cannot recommend LUXXE by Crimson Quarter highly enough. They combine world-class professionalism with that authentic New Orleans spirit, creating an experience that’s unforgettable for both you and your guests. We came away not just married, but with a wedding story we’ll be telling for the rest of our lives.”*

About wedding venues in Convent, LA

Looking for the perfect wedding venue in Louisiana? The state delivers a distinct blend of Southern charm, French Quarter elegance, and bayou landscapes that you won't find anywhere else. Your venue options range from rustic barns to grand plantation estates and sleek urban spaces, giving you incredible variety to match your personal wedding vision.

What Makes Louisiana Wedding Venues Special?

Louisiana's wedding venues showcase the state's rich heritage through historic mansions with classic wrought-iron balconies, converted industrial spaces featuring exposed brick, and stunning waterfront properties along the Mississippi River. The Tigermen Den in New Orleans preserves authentic Creole architecture that tells a story with every corner. Over in Kentwood, The White Magnolia spreads across 110 acres of countryside scenery where you can truly escape the everyday. Louisiana Castle delivers a fairy-tale experience you and your guests won't forget with its medieval-inspired architecture throughout the 10-acre estate; it's Louisiana's unique take on European elegance that combines the best of both worlds.

How Much Do Wedding Venues Cost in Louisiana?

Wedding venue costs in Louisiana average around $6,399, which makes up about 15% of your total wedding cost for 150 guests. For a better idea of what you might spend overall:

Guest CountTotal Wedding Budget
50 guests$18,275
100 guests$30,318
150 guests$41,642
200 guests$51,768
250 guests$61,894
300 guests$72,020
Most couples book their Louisiana venues about 14 months ahead of time, so you'll want to start looking early. All-inclusive packages start around $8,658 at places like the Hilton Baton Rouge Capitol Center, giving you tremendous value for a worry-free planning experience.

Where Can You Find Accessible Wedding Venues in Louisiana?

The Hilton Baton Rouge Capitol Center offers 20,000 sq ft of event space with full ADA-compliant features that can accommodate up to 900 guests.

When Should You Book Your Louisiana Wedding Venue?

December sees the highest number of venue inquiries as newly engaged couples begin planning. Fall months from September through November are the most sought-after wedding dates thanks to Louisiana's milder temperatures that make outdoor ceremonies much more comfortable for you and your guests.
