Any good recommendations for Garden District or French Quarter venues to host a small (60-80 person) wedding and reception? I know there are hundreds in NOLA, but looking for good personal experiences. We are currently vetting the downtown hotels (i.e., the Roosevelt, Ritz, and Windsor Court), but I want to make sure we don't miss any gems in other parts of town.

P.S. - Posting this on the food board because the level of taste and judgment here is, well, higher than the OT. Plus, the quality of food is a huge factor in the decision.

Recently went to a nice party at Bevelo Gas & Electric Lighting on Royal St.

I think there was 60ish there.

There is a really nice new venue on Magazine where is turns into a one way. I think Mag and St. Andrews. Don't know the name of the place but it's worth a checkout.

My buddy got married in the St. Louis (Mazarin or whatever it is now) and it was neat as hell with the courtyard and balconies, fountains and such. . I've been to a few NOLA hotel weddings and that one really sticks out. But, I by no means know much of shite about weddings or their venues. Good luck.

That place seems very kick arse.

I would probably look at many places such as this or even an expensive place like the Audobon Tea Room easily over a waaaayy over priced hotel option like the Ritz or Roosevelt.

My friend used to run its operations. They have a quite a wait list apparently.

I don't know if it's 2 story. The courtyard is where magazine splits.
