House of Blues New Orleans

o be not only the location for our ceremony but also our reception! All of our guests loved the food, the staff was so kind and attentive! I will be singing their praises till I can't sing anymore!

ace EXCEEDED our expectations! Jeanne and her staff are a god send, absolutely amazing! They were all so helpful and attentive during our wedding day, no detail was missed. Everything from flow of the ceremony and reception, the food, the set up, the design of our spaces, all were top notch. We worked with Jeanne for a year and a half planning the most absolute bad ass wedding, and she was such a pleasure to work with. No request was unmet. She made EVERYTHING happen for us. She definitely went above and beyond for us. They really can turn this venue into the most beautiful and intimate space for a wedding. I HIGHLY recommend this venue and it's staff for a wedding, or any party or gathering. I promise you, they will not disappoint. I wish we could do it all over again!

ith our decision. When we were first looking for venues in NOLA we wanted to go with some place in the French Quarter that was unique, fun, had a space large enough for up to 100 guests, had a great in-house chef, and was affordable. We ended up finding HOB on multiple wedding sites with great reviews. We reached out to get some more information and spoke with Britt, the sales coordinator there. Britt was really helpful in answering our questions and quickly responding to emails. She setup an initial invoice that covered some of the basic things we wanted, helped us select from the various space available for our ceremony and reception, and was helpful with helping us locate other vendors. We ended up booking the Voodoo Garden for our ceremony and the Parish Room for our reception. From that point Jeanne took over helping us organize the initial plans of our event. Since we were doing everything from the other side of the country, we needed lots of assistance from HOB staff, and Jeanne was happy to take that role. She FaceTimed with us to walk us through our space and get a rough idea of how we would lay out seating, which centerpieces we would use, tablecloths, and more. A few months before the wedding we made a trip out to New Orleans to meet with some of our vendors, and we also met with Allie the Sales Manager while we were there. Allie was incredibly accommodating for us, and we left that meeting feeling great about our upcoming nuptials! We continued to speak with Allie to coordinate things in the months leading up to the wedding. We also started corresponding with Jen who was the Logistics Coordinator for our wedding. Jen helped us setup a timetable for the event. She went above-and-beyond for us, coordinating the event with us late one evening on a 2 hour phone call. A few hours before the wedding many of our guests showed up to the HOB to take photos with us and the photographer. The Voodoo Garden wasn’t totally ready (because we were like 2 hours early!) but the staff at HOB thought quickly and ushered us up into the Foundation Room to take photos. This turned out to be a great move. We got some super cool pictures up there and our friends and family were able to buy some drinks at the bar. We had such a great wedding at the House of Blues, and we definitely want to thank our wait staff for that. Stephanie, who took care of me and the bride, was awesome, but the rest of the crew, including Sarah, Efrain, and Brianna were great as well. Our guests were happy and satisfied. The bartenders Jennifer and Stephanie kept the drinks flowing all night. They were quick and responsive, which is always awesome but rarely happens when you have an open bar. All of our guests were really happy with the bartenders, so Jennifer and Stephanie thank you guys! We also want to send a big shoutout to the main chef Brad who cooked us some delicious food. Brad also made as an exquisite beignet super tower, which we know was a tough request, but he nailed it for us. Thanks chef! Overall the House of Blues crushed it for us. We had such a great wedding and their staff really deserves so much of the credit. They made it so easy for us. Thanks again to the team there at HOB, we’re looking forward to seeing you again next time we’re down in the Crescent City!

dn't want rustic, modern, frou frou, or anything all that normal for our untraditional wedding. I went back to the drawing board and contacted House of Blues, who I originally thought was well over our budget but ended up being right where we wanted to be. We had our ceremony in the VooDoo Gardens courtyard and the reception for 90 people in The Parish room. Everything was so beautiful, yet funky and intimate just like we wanted. My guests were so excited to be at this venue, and they still rave about the French Fry Bar we had (their chef is the coolest). The food, décor, and bar were excellent. If I could do it all over again, I'd still do the same thing 100 times over. Allie S. in Sales was a godsend to us. She is truly the reason we pulled the trigger on booking here. She answered every single question and was always available for me. We are thankful to have crossed paths with her. Jen B. was our logistics coordinator who truly made the perfect wedding night become a reality for us. She met with us plenty times before and after the wedding (to pick up items) and never made us feel like we were inconveniencing her. My husband and I just had a conversation last night how we felt like the quality exceeded the value; we didn't spend a fortune, but our wedding was reflective of every of high dollar wedding we've gone to in the past. Thank you to everyone at HOB who played a part in making our big day our best day!
