House of Broel

Bonnie and the wedding coordinators were amazing. Bonnie was easy to work with and was always quick to respond to any questions we had. The coordinators did a wonderful job of keeping us on track the day of the wedding. They even pulled us aside so we had a change to sit down... Read More and eat together. The house was decorated beautifully. We loved that everything was all inclusive an we did not have to purchase decorations, etc. All we needed to bring were our favors, guest book, and cake topper. Our wedding day could not have gone any better, it was more than we had hoped for. Our guests loved our venue and enjoyed hearing about the history of the house. We initially booked solely based on the photos and online reviews and we could not have chosen a better venue! I would highly recommend House of Broel.

I got married here on 10/7/17. I can't even begin to express how wonderful our wedding was. The house is gorgeous. I can't wait to see our pictures. The food was delicious. We booked our wedding and used the recommended DJ. Mrs. Broel was our officiant. Everything was perfect. I... Read More had numerous questions because we planned the wedding sight unseen. Mrs. Broel and her team answered everything and made local recommendations for a photographer, florist, salon, etc. Our guests kept telling us how much they enjoyed the venue, the catering, and the music. I could not have asked for a more perfect wedding. Thank you!

The House of Broel team delivered an experience that absolutely made my dream wedding come true! When we toured the House of Broel, we were blown away, as the venue totally encompassed the authentic charm of New Orleans that we were looking for. Ms. Broel put our minds at ease... Read More and told us that we could just basically show up and they would take care of everything. She truly has a passion for what she does, and she and her staff executed everything FLAWLESSLY! Denise, the coordinator, was amazing, and she was always available when I had a question or special request. She made sure that my every wish was granted, and I can't thank her enough. Cassandra was an absolute angel as a bridal assistant! She doted on me like a mother would with helping me look perfect. She gave me words of encouragement and she was there to attend to me throughout the evening to make sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. The food was DELICIOUS, and the drinks flowed - my guests were EXTREMELY impressed! The House of Broel delivered a FLAWLESS dream wedding for me, and I just wish I could experience it over and over again! I had a vision of my dream wedding, and the House of Broel EXCEEDED my expectations! Beautiful venue and excellent service!

Wow what an amazing day!! Bonnie Broel and her staff exceeded my expectations. They worked hard and were very organized and made sure that our day went smoothly. The venue was beautiful, the cake and DJ were good and the guest were happy. The staff helped me get dressed, helped... Read More pack up our things and listened to our request. Bonnie was great and even made sure that the photographer got certain special moments. Thank you all for making our day stress free and memorable. I highly recommend this venue.

So disappointed. I was the maid of honor at my best friend's wedding and was shocked at the lack of communication and level of disorganization of the staff. Due to transportation error, unrelated to the venue, the bride and bridesmaids were running a few minutes late. The door... Read More was locked and no one was answering it (with groomsman and a few early guests already inside). We needed to rush the bride up to get her in the dress for more photos, and after asking the staff several times where do we go.. the repeated answer "someone will be with you in a moment" was not good enough. All I needed to know was where do we go. They did not explain that they preferred someone escort us probably due to dollhouses upstairs. So in a time crunch, lack of communication = panic. Finally we were led upstairs where we scurried to get the bride in her dress for a few more photos of the bridal party together. Then we were told that we had that room all evening and no one would be allowed upstairs so we didn't have to worry about our stuff. We were thankful for that.. but little did we know that over an hour before the reception ended one of our bridesmaids was told to clear out the room and bring everything downstairs. They also schedule rehearsals right before the ceremony.. day of! So we were rushed through rehearsal (15 minutes before real ceremony) that the bride couldn't even be at as she is finishing getting ready and doing bride photos. It was chaos and everyone was so stressed. They then told bride and groom that they were not allowed to do first look photos anymore as there was no time. The amazing photographer stepped in and stood up for them. Bride loved her for that, and also because she is amazing and talented. Becky Cooper Photography. Other points to note is that the DJ required with the package, didn't ask the bride if she wanted specific ceremony music he just said.. "don't worry, I got this." She was like, um no, please play the music I want.. and when she sent the list of songs... he literally played them song for song and didn't do the DJ thing which is figure out most ideal order, adjust based on mood of crowd.. etc. So they basically payed for a very expensive i pod play list. They did not announce or stop music when the bride and groom were cutting the cake. Someone, a guest mind you, literally went room to room announcing it, only then the music was finally cut off. By the way, the staff told the bride that the DJ didn't want to stop playing, but I NEVER saw anyone talk to the DJ at all about it. The space according to the bride was rented until 10:30pm and they told the DJ to end it at 10pm. (this may have been miscommunication, but the bride was very upset) They fixed the error and he continued to the designated time, but we really felt pushed out. The Bride was so furious with them, and they made her day so stressful. Thank God only the bridal party saw the behind the scenes mess and everyone else was able to enjoy it. Food was also terrible. I am not sure what happened here as previous reviews seem to be incredible. So disappointing and ALL of this could have been avoided with appropriate communication...

We had the best day ever. Payment plan keeps you on budget. Their format helps keep Bridal stress to a minimum. In house coordinators Ms. Cassandra and Denise are awesome. DJ and Bartenders keep the party going!!!

We decided to elope and found the Hosie of Broel to be extremely accommodating considering we called them one month before the ceremony! I did not step inside the place until 2 days before the wedding. I was in constant communication with Miss Bonnie and Denise and they assured... Read More me everything would go smoothly. The house is absolutely beautiful and pictures do not do this place justice. We had a small ceremony and plenty of places to take pictures. The bartender made sure everyone had a drink and the food was delicious!! If I had to do it all over again I would definitely go to this place first. They took care of all of the arrangements and the dj. All I had to do was walk in, get dressed, and get married. I would like to thank everyone at the House of Broel for everything they did for us and for making our day a wonderful experience with no stress.

We loved The House of Broel! We decided on the intimate package because we did't want to have a huge wedding but we wanted something really special. The staff was amazing and made our wedding day pretty much effortless. They did just about everything for us and all we had to do... Read More was show up. I would definitely recommend The House of Broel .

Beautiful place! I had my wedding ceremony July 22, 2017! I could not have picked a better place! The wedding coordinators are great and made sure that my day went smoothly as possible!

From start to finish Bonnie Broels and her staff made the entire process stress free. They were very helpful throughout the planning process. On the wedding day my veil & jewelry was misplaced. Ms Bonnie & staff went above and beyond. She was able to find not only a veil but... Read More offered me a selection of jewelry. The food was delicious, tasty drinks & the staff was very pleasant. The venue was GORGEOUS!

The staff was amazing, the food was fantastic, and the photos came out great!!!

Our wedding was absolutely perfect!!! We started planning our April 2017 destination wedding in June 2016. We would not be visiting the venue before the wedding, so we depended on communication via phone and email! Bonnie was helpful from the onset! She answered all questions... Read More that I had in a prompt manner! The thing that I loved about this venue is that everything is inclusive! There was no need for coordinating for chairs, cake, alcohol, food, flowers, etc that can really add up!We could show up, get married and be on our way! That is exactly what we were looking for ... a turnkey wedding! Fast forward to our big day! It was amazing! Everyone was in awe of how beautiful the venue was! We got married outside in the courtyard and had our reception inside. The weather was perfect! I can't thank the staff at House of Broel enough for ensuring that my wedding ran smoothly the day of! There was no need for a wedding coordinator, as they made sure the train ran smoothly and we kept on schedule! I highly recommend this venue! The price for what you get cannot be beat in this area! We loved every minute of our wedding at the House of Broel. When it was over, my husband said that he wanted to do it again! Bonnie and staff will take great care of you!

The house of Broel was the perfect back drop to our beautiful wedding. Everything was perfect from the food, music and setting . Our guests cannot stop talking about how much fun they had and how beautiful the place was. Thanks Ms Broel.

One of the most beautiful places I have been to. Mrs. Broel was so lovely and sweet. All the people that were there are so helpful with making my special day magical. The photographer took beautiful pictures as well.

The House of Broel was wonderful! Great price and excellent service! Mrs. Bonnie and Denise worked very hard to make sure everything was perfect! Highly recommend.

Our daughter's New Year's Eve wedding was beyond our expectations. Everything went exceptionally well, and there are no words that can adequately express our appreciation for the professionalism and helpfulness of the staff. A special note of appreciation to the wedding... Read More coordinators, Cassandra and Denise, for an excellent job in making sure our daughter was "well taken care of." The quality of the food and service we received were first class. Our guests are still raving about the delicious food and how the wait staff "kept the hors d'oeuvres and drinks coming." It was the most beautiful and elegant venue that looked absolutely amazing on that day. Everything (from what we saw) went flawlessly. We cannot recommend this venue highly enough. Choosing the House of Broel was the best decision our daughter made!

"Would not have changed a thing ! " What an amazing venue with an amazing staff. Everyone was so wonderful and kind. Ms. Bonnie has got to be an Angel sent from the Heavens above ! My daughter and her husband were married at House of Broel May 14,2016 . They were living in... Read Moreauyfcbefvrafaxtfuutwwtrufxwrzdburayxxw Gainesville Fl. and since everything was done from a distance my partner and I were involved in most of the decision making as we live near by. Ms.Bonnie helped us every step of the way. My daughter was a nervous wreck but, when she would speak to Ms.Bonnie over the phone she would get a sense of relief. Ms.Bonnie assured us that everything would be taken care of and WOW, was it ever ! Thank you so much to the entire staff as well as Ms.Bonnie. You guys made a good day an amazing day that will never be forgotten ! Cheers to you all , Happy New Year !

The House of Broel made my destination wedding easy and enjoyable. I'm not much of a planner, so having an all-in-one place was ideal. Bonnie takes care of almost everything- food, ceremony, center pieces, and the cake from the bakery she is contracted with was AMAZING. She... Read More offers an amazing service for the price.

Let me start by saying my husband and I booked this place sight unseen. We stumbled upon it online because we were looking for something different. We didn't want a typical traditional wedding in a stuffy venue. We were looking for something more intimate in a beautiful mansion... Read More with gardens and antique decor. We decided to request a quote from this place because it had everything we wanted to offer from indoor/outdoor space to catering/alcohol on site (and much much more). We live in NJ and it was easiest to plan something from afar having most services/amenities included with the space. We received a quote just about a half hr after inquiring! Looking through the website more, talking to Bonnie, researching reviews, and reading the quote over again; we thought this place was too good to be true. It got amazing reviews (I now know why) and we decided this was our place a week later. Bonnie was so kind and informative and offered so much help. She told us not to worry about a thing, and we didn't! The very first time we saw the place in person was 2 days before the wedding. It was even more beautiful in person. The pictures don't do it justice. It was breathtaking. We didn't have to decorate at all, it's perfect! Not even flowers are needed (except the ones you're walking down the aisle with). Our photos came out gorgeous with this house as the backdrop. We hired the in house DJ and had Bonnie perform our ceremony (both optional) and everything was great. The DJ worked with us ahead of time over email to work out a playlist. Bonnie even accommodated us with our preferred brands of alcohol (for a small fee of course). When I arrived the day of Bonnie had some helpers there to greet me from the car, help me inside, get me dressed, and calm my nerves; they were my saviors! They also delegated tasks to my girls so I only had to think about walking down the aisle (which they prepped my Dad and me for, and my husband and best man separately). After a sweet little ceremony we got served cocktails and hors d' oeuvres for the next few hours. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the house was and how good the food was (all from out of town/all over world). They still can't stop telling us it was the best wedding they've ever been to. Thank you Bonnie! We'd do it all over again

What a beautiful place to have a wedding! It's austere and elegant, and everyone knows it as one of the most famous landmarks in New Orleans! Having checked many places with our daughter (and future son-in-law), we decided on House of Broel to handle the ceremony & reception.... Read More Other places lacked the aesthetics we were looking for or needed to guarantee numbers in order to book. Anyway, the space itself is amazing. The cocktail space was grand in that “New Orleans” and “Southern” kind of way. And when it came to the ballroom, well it was magical! Our family and friends were made to feel at home in the grand style of a southern mansion without being “stuffy”. Rachel W. went above and beyond to make sure the space was set on the day of our event and saw to it that the evening ran smoothly. Thanks to Bonnie, Rachel and the staff at the House of Broel for wonderful wedding memories that will last a life time!

My wife and I were married by Bonnie Broel at the incredible House of Broel. In fact you can see my wife's wedding dress in Miss Broel's museum. The ambiance, the service , the food, in fact the whole package was first class. Thank you Bonnie for making our day special.

This was a terrific venue for our wedding! My wife and I both live in New Orleans, but we had many guests from out of town, so we wanted them to have a true New Orleans experience. We both felt that this venue gave both our wedding, as well as the guests at our wedding, this... Read More flavor. In addition, Bonnie and the staff were incredibly helpful in making our day exactly the way we wanted it. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone.

Had a perfect weeding because of this amazing house and very friendly staff.

I recently had my wedding at House of Broel and was extremely pleased. The venue was wonderful, all the staff were very attentive, and the DJ (Bubba) was great. He played a good mix of music and really kept us going. Thanks to everyone from the House of Broel for making our... Read More special day wonderful.

What an elegant experience!! I couldn't have imagined a better evening. Every single part of the event seemleasly merged into an overall dream for my new hubby and myself! I'll never forget what an amazing night this truly was.
