I'm a local wedding planner. I've worked in many restaurants and venues throughout the city. GW Fins is by far the highest quality restaurant, not just in the French Quarter, but in the entire city for fine dining. The newly renovated private dining room is one of my favorite spots to hold intimate dinners. The full restaurant buyout creates a beautiful and inviting atmosphere for larger groups. The updates in decor are stunning! The staff is professional and friendly. They take care of you as if you're family. Last but certainly not least, the food is absolutely outstanding! Even if you don't ever get the pleasure of doing an event here, go for dinner. Trust a native. GW Fins is a NOLA must!

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
