About this venue

Congratulations on falling in love and deciding to make it a forever thing. It’s always a good idea to say yes to love, and New Orleans is the place to wear your heart prominently stitched on your sleeve. Whether you want to get hitched in the middle of a Second Line parade or waltz in a traditional Cajun wedding march, Ace New Orleans is a place for it all. Our Barnett Event Complex offers a collection of spaces that can be combined or separated in a myriad of ways — just as suited for intimate gatherings as for grand, raucous receptions.

    Inconsistent Communication, Beautiful Space

    We worked with three different event coordinators throughout our wedding planning process, seems they have trouble keeping steady employees. Each time we had to reiterate what was told to us, little was in writing. Some promises were not kept and some information was not shared, like needing to pay extra for a media pass to take photos throughout the hotel. The wedding itself was beautiful and well put together, the food was good. It was very stressful getting to the wedding day, would not recommend if you are planning most of the wedding yourself.


We welcome tours by appointment and look forward to sharing our space with you.
Ace Hotel New Orleans provides full service staff, including servers, bartenders and food attendants.
We assist in the planning process as it relates to menu, staffing and setup. However, we do not provide day-of coordination. We suggest hiring a coordinator or planner to help you plan your celebration and can recommend one for you.
Your rental includes two hours of set up and one hour of breakdown time. All vendor load in and load out times should be coordinated with Ace’s onsite event team.
It varies with special events and conventions but in general, low season is January and June through September. High season is February through May and October through December.
We do not allow confetti, glitter or sparklers. Candles are a welcome addition to any celebration.
We believe in the old superstition that says rain on your wedding day is good luck. If it does rain, most of our event spaces are either covered or can be tented. Tents can be rented, delivered and installed through an event rental company. Tent costs vary based on size, but generally range from $500–$1500.
