My wife and I had our wedding here on 5/29/15. This place was spectacular. We saw 3 other places including Rosy's before making a decision. We chose this because we loved the 1930s-1940s jazz club feel. The exposed brick throughout the whole building, the atrium with a live tree, and all the great pictures/decorations throughout the building also helped us make that decision. We didn't need to do any of our own decorating or hire someone to do that. It was also the most for our money and great value. The food was incredible, and the bar did great job at pouring drinks all night. Darlene, the wedding coordinator, did an excellent job making sure everything went smoothly. I can honestly say that nothing went wrong and this was due to Darlene's efforts. She is straightforward and blunt and she did a awesome job in accommodating everything we wanted. While coordinating, she did join us in the party and shared our night with us, and by that I mean she had a couple of drinks with us. We didn't mind one bit but if you want want someone who is very proper, anxiety driven, and stiff, then I would suggest going somewhere else because Darlene is a little unconventional, and is laid back but very much in control, and knows exactly what she needs to do. She collaborated well with the florist, the person who did our cake, the band, and our Limo company. She gave us a sheet for us to fill out a couple of days before the wedding including info on band, cake, limo, wedding party names, etc. FILL THIS OUT and SEND IT TO DARLENE! This makes everyone's life so much easier including Darlene's so that she can do her absolute best to get everything perfect for you! FYI, after our ceremony, she had food and drinks ready for us in the bridal suite and we were along for a few minutes before the reception started. Steve, who is the chef and one of the owners of the club is also a straight shooter, and created a great menu for our night. We didn't hear any complaints from our guests but rather raves about how good everything was. The staff that served appetizers and oversaw our buffet, were very friendly and were interacting with our guests. There were pretty funny from what I hear. We had our wedding ceremony outside. It went exactly as planned. There is limited seating outside and some of our guests had to stand or sit around the edge of the backyard on cement seating. Due to the New Orleans weather, it was a bit hot and humid. Our ceremony was very short, about 10-15 minutes, so our guests didn't have to sit or stand for very long in the hot and humidity outside. If you want a longer ceremony or are very afraid of weather, doing an inside wedding might be best for you. Like I have been saying, our wedding was absolutely perfect! Thank you Darlene, Steve, Staff and Rosy!!
