13 of the Best Boutique Hotels for a Wedding Buyout | Vogue

"If you want a homey-yet-elevated party infused with Southern hospitality, this restored 19th-century Uptown mansion along tree-lined St. Charles Avenue delivers. The 14 individually designed rooms layer quirky touches—a Narnia-like armoire door opening to an airy bathroom—with local flavor like vinyl from Peaches Records and chocolates by Piety and Desire. The backyard pool and its bar become pure magic at night with string lights and a five-piece jazz band, and while the restaurant works for dinner, the front patio—with white marble tables, tasseled umbrellas, and French bistro chairs—sets a picturesque scene for a low-key alfresco celebration." - Christina Liao
