The best decision we could have ever made. The space is iconic...exactly what you would envision for the perfect French Quarter reception. A little on the small side, but it complemented our 40 guests perfectly, with the exact right amount of r...oom to eat, mingle, and dance. The food was AMAZING...guests are still RAVING about the alligator bites, gumbo, and bread pudding (our compliments to Chef Frank). It was also so much fun to open up the balcony looking over Bourbon Street to end our reception. They even wheeled a TV into the space at our request to ensure guests had the opportunity to watch the LSU game. Jennifer, who helped us through the planning process, and Tyrone, who coordinated the event day-of, were both professional, helpful, prompt, friendly, and so accommodating. Pat O's allowed us to drop off decor the day before our wedding and pick up the day after, so we didn't have to worry about logistics the day-of. The Briars Suite included hors d'oeuvres, dinner, dessert, and a full open bar for 3 hours at an incredibly reasonable price (Joey, the bartender, took GOOD care of us). Hands down, the best investment of the night.
