It was like pulling teeth to get pricing information from this venue. I lost all interest.
For any brides interested, as of now it’s $2,300 for a Friday and $2,800 for a Saturday. ‘Tables, chairs, linens, workers and cleanup are included.’

Erin made the entire wedding reception planning process a breeze. She is extremely personable and there whenever I needed. She gave honest opinions and made sure everything was ready day of. The inside of this venue is so gorgeous. From the dark brick and wood and beautiful lights, very little decorating is necessary because of the simple beauty of the place. Whether you decide to go simple or extravagant, this place can do it all. I highly recommend.

We used the Crossing at Mervine Kahn for my bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, and wedding reception. Everything was just perfect! Erin and Hannah made sure it was all exactly how I wanted and the whole staff went above and beyond what we could ever have imagined. They also have a beautiful and big upstairs bridal suite that we were about to rent and spend the whole day of the wedding at and it was so nice to be able to walk downstairs and peak at all the reception decor as it was going up.
The building is beautiful, the food is amazingly delicious, and the staff is excellent!!!

We got married here in January 2016 and honestly couldn't have asked for anything better! Erin was SO helpful and truly made my mom feel at ease throughout the planning stages. She was always available to answer any questions we had and did everything she could to make sure we had what we needed (she even offered to run to the store and grab me a toothbrush!) we were all so thankful for her help! The venue is absolutely gorgeous and everyone who came made comments about how much they loved it. If you're looking for a somewhat dimly lit, romantic venue with hidden local charm, The Crossing is spot on! I wish we could go back and do it all over again, it was so perfect!

This place was absolutely wonderful to work with and made our special day perfect! Mrs. Madelene and Erin were so helpful, kind, and patient. It was so easy to plan everything all in one place. And the building itself is gorgeous!!! If I had it to do over again 100 times, I would pick The Crossing at Mervine Kahn each time! Thank you so much for everything!!

The best venue ever! a hidden gem in Rayne, LA has the perfect warehouse/rustic look! from start to finish everyone was amazing, especially Madelene the venue's coordinator. The florist they recommend, Casie Webb was amazing and the flowers were stunning! The wedding went smooth and exactly how I pictured without any hiccups! I highly recommend Mervine Kahn to the Lafayette area brides who want a vintage, yet modern wedding venue!

The Criossing gave me the wedding of my dreams!! Very unique RUSTIC country spacious and just welcoming to all! The people there made it all so easy! Madeline, who runs it, doesn't only do an awesome job of keeping everything organized etc for you, but was also so helpful and so into just planning out and decorating my whole wedding! Very sweet lady and awesome to work with! Bridal suit was great to have, and the food was best wedding food I've ever had! We also got so many complements from so many guests on the unique atmosphere and amazing food! I am extremely pleased and so glad I chose the Crossing for my wedding!

I can't say enough about how thankful we were and still are for finding such a gem in both The Crossing and Madelyn! After thinking I would never find a place around Lafayette with the character and elegance that compared to the places I dreamed of in New Orleans, it was so refreshing and relieving to find The Crossing! We moved our wedding from New Orleans to our hometown for convenience and simplicity, and we have no regrets! Madelyn exudes such a positive energy, warmth, and love - honestly, probably more than all of the venue directors that we met in Nola combined. She truly loves her job, her venue, and because of that, everything just seems to fall into place. I recommend The Crossing to anyone looking for a true southern welcoming process - not to mention a beautiful, rustic, unique surrounding!

For many reasons The Crossing is an amazing place to have a wedding.
-Spectacular cuisine! They will make anything you ask for. We had sliders as our party favor at the end of the night. kitchen never closes:) They packed us a hefty portion of food to take home.
-Gorgeous Building, spacious(we had 375 guest and there was plenty of space and a stage for a 12 piece band), and beautiful bridal suite. All of our guest loved the venue!!!
-Attention to detail, Just ask! We had baskets in the bathroom with goodies for the guest. They also provided real forks and china plates. No flimsie plates for guest to eat off of.
-Amazing staff, very helpful and attentive.
-Overall, The Crossing is a ONE STOP SHOP! You dont have to higher out tons of vendors! If you want, they can do it all!!
We are so glad we choose to have our wedding at The Crossing and we will recommend it to many.

We held both our ceremony and wedding reception at The Crossing at Mervine Kahn. The staff was very accommodating and easy to work with. The facility was gorgeous. All of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and how great the bartenders and food servers were. Even my photographer mentioned the great lighting in the venue. Our photos came out wonderful! At The Crossing, you have less to coordinate because they do the food and bar as well. I highly recommend The Crossing to anyone interested in a rustic but beautiful venue for their wedding, reception, or just a party/get together.

From the food to the venue to the staff, the Crossing at Mervine Kahn made sure that our wedding day was absolutely perfect. The venue offered us everything we were looking for. The wedding party used the upstairs bridal suite to dress and the salon area offered everyone the opportunity to get dressed and enjoy champagne and food before the wedding. Madeline, Jamey, Eric, and Jasper helped us to set a menu that met everyone's appetite with brisket, crawfish enchiladas, and shrimp fettuccini to name a few of the delicious items. The staff ensured that everything went smoothly and made sure we didn't have to worry about the details, but could enjoy our wedding day to the fullest. The Crossing made our wedding a day we will never forget.

It was really nice. The people were friendly and worked well with us. The building is beautiful and didn't really need a whole lot of decorating. The food was great!! I didn't have time to eat, but they packed us up a goody bag to take home with a little bit of everything.
