They were helpful but some things were stressful for us. We paid for the house for the weekend and even paid for the extra room for the rehearsal dinner, and after the rehearsal dinner they wouldn’t let us set up for the reception. The day after the wedding they wouldn’t let us clean out the reception hall until 8am but checkout was at 11, so we were up at 6 just waiting around until we could go in at 8 to clean up. Shelby was extremely helpful and even gave us the nicer rehearsal room due to the heavy rain, but they did shoo us out right at the minute that it ended. I guess you get what you pay for when you have a wedding at a venue though. She answers all our questions and it was a beautiful venue and a beautiful house, but I do wish they had a little more leniency. Felt a little strict. But it was a beautiful venue. Wish we could’ve used the pool but the mosquitoes were too bad at night.

House of Broel was built as a story and a half family dwelling in 1850 in the Garden District of New Orleans. In 1884 the family decided they needed room for weddings and parties so they had the house lifted, making it a two and a half story mansion that we use today for events as they did back centuries ago. The Victorian style makes for the perfect romantic setting for your wedding, as well as the enjoyment of being on historic Saint Charles Avenue with its access to many five star hotels and the Street Car line.

Getting married at Margaret Place was truly one of the best decisions we made. The entire experience was effortless from start to finish. Every question I asked (and I had plenty!) was answered quickly, kindly, and with so much patience. The team made every single detail happen exactly the way I envisioned, and they never once made me feel like I was asking too much. They genuinely care, and it shows in everything they do. Kathleen was incredible to work with. My maid of honor and I stayed in the bridal suite the night before the wedding, and it was PERFECT. The space was beautiful, peaceful, and such a dream for all my bridesmaids and I to get ready in. If you’re considering Margaret Place for your wedding, do it. It was everything I hoped for and so much more. Truly the most special place for the best day of our lives. Also, BOOK THEIR HUGE HANGING DISCO BALL!!! Such a fun addition to our big day!!

I was married at First Presbyterian Church and found them to be the epitome of God Is Love! The church staff was welcoming and accommodating to give couples and parents a "church" wedding that feels right for both generations. Not too many rules about music or ceremony, welcoming guest ministers. We used the church's minister and couldn't have been happier. The building is gorgeous on the inside and outside, great acoustics, an old fashioned church bell, and a great center aisle to walk down. I love all of my pictures and memories.

It looked stunning and everything was flawless from beginning to end. We also had all of our guests stay at the hotel on-site for easy logistics and hosted a family brunch the day after on-site as well. Definitely recommend!

Over in Kentwood, The White Magnolia spreads across 110 acres of countryside scenery where you can truly escape the everyday.
