My husband and I wanted our wedding celebration to be unique to us and an extension of how we live our lives by highlighting the places we love in our neighborhood. We had a lovely...
dinner with 75 of our closest family and friends followed by a truly incredible party at Cafe Erzulie for 150 people. We had guests in their 90's and guests in their 20's and everyone raved about how special and fun the party was. We have had so many great Jazz nights and late weekend nights at Erzulie and it was a dream to be able to have the place to ourselves and dance the night away. The staff worked really well with the catering team that we brought in for late night food and made the whole night so logistically easy. The drinks were delicious and such an improvement among standard wedding bar drinks. The backyard was transformed into a tropical disco party and our family and friends danced the night away. The cabana areas and inside tables provided people with space to talk and rest while the dance floor was busy all night long. The DJ, who plays regularly at Cafe Erzulie, was beyond incredible. We couldn't have been happier to have celebrated our wedding at Cafe Erzulie. One of the things I was most put off by when I started planning our wedding was how "wedding-industrial-complex" things can seem, and Erzulie felt one of a kind.

My husband and I were looking for a fun venue where we could have a ceremony and reception all in one. Our priorities were great drinks, plenty of food, and being able to dance. We...
wanted something that felt personal and joyous.
Cafe Erzulie was INCREDIBLE. The staff are all so sweet and kind and helpful, and we ended up throwing a party that felt like us. We had minimal flowers, and the space still looked absolutely beautiful. I'm so grateful to the entire Cafe Erzulie staff for making our wedding so special!!
