The Moore

There aren’t enough good things to say about The Moore and its staff. From our initial consultation to our wedding night exit, Melanie was so helpful, reassuring, supportive, and accommodating. Every anxious email I sent was met with reassurance and excitement. On the day of, Gina and AJ were also a huge part of keeping me sane. They made everything perfect and my work towards the wedding day was minimal because they handled literally everything. They were super flexible when we decided to extend the reception last minute. The food was amazing, we had so many friends and family complement the catering. It was a perfect evening and if I could go back and do it again, I’d choose The Moore every time.

The Moore was absolutely amazing. I can not recommend them enough. The staff was extremely personable and detailed oriented. Gina was so excellent that I forgot she was employed with the venue and not a friend attending my wedding because she was so sweet and helpful. Planning up to wedding day was easy and accessible. Melanie was so helpful and attentive and everything you would want from a venue manager. Food was fantastic. The Moore has genuinely surpassed my expectations and truly made my fairy tale wedding possible. Decor was so beautiful and romantic. I wouldn’t change anything about our experience.

I can’t even begin to say enough how excellent this venue is! Melanie and her team went out of their way to make certain that everything was perfect for my daughter’s wedding and it was. All the little details were right on point. The food was fantastic and the drinks were perfect according to my guests. My daughter and her new husband along with all the guest stayed on the dance floor all night long. So many of my guests came up to me and texted me the next day, saying how magical of a wedding it was. And it surely was. I could never ask for a better venue, service team Or more personalized service than what The Moore provided. I highly recommend The Moore for any future bride and grooms!

Everything about our experience with The Moore was excellent. Melanie answered all our questions and was very helpful in guiding us through the whole planning and decision-making process. Even with last minute weather-related decisions, we knew we were in good hands with Melanie and her team. The day-of service was out of this world. Gina, our wedding attendant, was a dream. She seamlessly guided us through our wedding day timeline, taking excellent care of us throughout the whole night. Everything was absolutely beautiful! The food was delicious (our guests are still raving about it), the decor was gorgeous and the service was impeccable. The attention to detail from Melanie and her team is simply immaculate. I honestly cannot recommend this place enough! 😍

Our surprise wedding dream was absolutely amazing and PERFECT here at the Moore! The staff was so great and friendly to work with! The coordinators are the best and will work with you in achieving your perfect wedding! Everything was made so easy and the wedding stress was to a minimum because of Melanie the event manager. She is your go to girl, she made the entire process so easy ! I can’t say enough great things from this venue, to florals, to food- it was all amazing!

I can’t imagine a better venue than The Moore. Every step of the way, they made it so easy for us to have the most beautiful wedding day. Melanie was always available and patient with whatever questions I had, and the team incorporated my decorations perfectly and made the space absolutely gorgeous for our wedding day. They also handled our rehearsal dinner, which I did absolutely no work for and turned out just stunning. It’s a beautiful, romantic venue with the most professional and talented staff, and I can’t recommend them enough. Thank you for making our wedding day so perfect!!!

The venue and staff are amazing. Melanie was very gracious with our long planned journey. The food was okay but not the best in NOLA. The DJ was horrible. We curated a list of songs for him to play through the ceremony, reception and he messed up so badly during the reception, my husband screamed, loudly. I recommend getting your own DJ.

I cannot say it enough, but The Moore absolutely went above and beyond to make our day so special. We had amazing communication with Melanie, who helped me with designing the floor plan to our liking and also kept track of everything that needed to be done. Wedding planning is obviously so stressful and she really kept me on top of everything! The day of, I felt no stress what so ever because the staff had everything taken care of. When we saw the room for the first time I knew it would be the best night of my life! The food is exceptional, the service is top notch, and everything just went perfect. I did not have ONE hiccup the entire night. Thank you SO much to The Moore & their staff for making my wedding exactly what I imagined.

Mrs. Melanie and her team were the best any bride could ever ask for! From day one of meeting her, I knew all of my dreams would come true! She answered every question I had and perfected every detail… and did I mention how accommodating she is! On the way to the venue I had high hopes for every part of the reception. Upon arriving, her and her team quickly revamped my cakes to make it look like the cake of my dreams, and I can’t thank them enough for this. Although I didn’t eat much of the food, all of my guests raved about how great it was! The French fry bar was a hit!!! Also, the Dj was awesomeee! I was able to send him a list of songs I wanted to be played, and let’s just say- it was a pretty great playlist the entire night. I can’t thank Mrs. Melanie enough for ensuring every part of the night was perfect. I have had wedding day blues since the morning after our big day! Choose the Moore for the perfect wedding reception and team; you won’t regret it!💕

If you are looking for an all inclusive venue The Moore is your place!! Melanie is absolute god send. She is so quick to respond to your million silly questions and really goes above and beyond for her brides. Our wedding was 02/11/23 and it was a dream come true. Everything was perfect, the venue was stunning. All our guests had nothing but rave reviews for the food. Literally some of the best food at a wedding they have ever had. The staff there were so attentive and welcoming. If I could give The Moore 1000 stars I would!

The Moore was absolutely perfect for my reception! Melanie and her team are rockstars and the sweetest people ever. They made my whole day so easy and smooth. Would recommend 1000 times over and over!!

I wish I could give more stars to The Moore! Our big day was 6/11/22 and thanks to Melanie and her staff, it was a day that we’ll cherish forever. The level of attention, thoughtfulness, and genuine passion for what they do made the entire process a breeze. Melanie ALWAYS answered her phone and emails no matter how many I sent and became more like a long time friend from start to finish. The venue was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and any special tweaks that I requested were made to bring our vision to life. The food was amazing and our guests were raving about the taste and service of the staff. The Moore was a one stop shop for everything and took so much stress away from the planning and execution of what tends to be a difficult process for most couples. I would recommend The Moore to anyone looking for a group of professional, resourceful, experienced, and outright wonderful group of people to make dreams come true. Thank you Melanie and the entire staff for a beautiful day that we will hold dear to our hearts forever!

The Moore team truly went above and beyond to make our wedding dreams come true! My husband and I felt genuinely cared for by the staff. They saved me from a wedding day disaster by letting me in earlier than expected due to a power outage where I was supposed to get ready. The food was amazing, the bar service was exceptional, and there’s no way to beat the romance of the interior mantle during the evening. Hopefully, we can have an anniversary party there in the future!

I can't believe I'm just getting around to writing this review. We got married on June 4 and had our wedding reception at The Moore. I wish I can give them 100 stars. I worked with Melanie throughout the whole planning period and she was FABULOUS. The best thing, I did not have to really do anything... planning was so easy, so stress free. 2 days before our wedding, I dropped off a few personal items that I wanted to display, and Melanie took care of the rest. When we walked into our reception, I was blown away. It was decorated so beautiful, everything was perfect! Our bridal attendants always had our drinks full, and made sure we had everything we needed all night. My guests are still raving about the gumbo and roast. I wish I could get married again and again, and each time I would have my reception at The Moore. Do yourself a favor and book this place!

My experience with the Moore and Melanie was amazing. It was a destination wedding which is stressful in itself but she was so responsive and accommodating that it calmed my nerves many times during the planning process. I tried my hardest Not to be a bridezilla but I did have specifics and a zillion emails shooting her way. The venue space itself was gorgeous and didn’t need much decorating at all. Their wedding packages included a lot such as table cloths, flowers on tables, candles, up lighting, DJ etc. We were fortunate that outside space was created so we had our wedding outdoors which was magical. Though I didn’t eat at the wedding due to excitement and partying, I had positive feedback from my guests regarding the food. From the very first contact to the very last, Melanie was super helpful and cheerful. Her customer service skills are A++++. Would definitely recommend.

The Moore was amazing for our wedding reception! The fact that so many things were included really made planning so much easier. Everything was great, from the food to the centerpieces. Melanie is the best! She is so calm and reassuring, she really helped me stay stress-free through the whole planning process. I would definitely recommend The Moore!

The Moore helped make our wedding day more beautiful than I could ever imagine! Between the flavorful food and the attentive staff, you can't go wrong booking your next event here! My guests are still talking about how wonderful our special day was! Could not recommend The Moore enough!!

Couldn’t say enough GREAT things about The Moore!! Melanie and her staff made our wedding reception a literal dream! They made sure we were attended to at all times and made our night go so smoothly. I would recommend The Moore to anyone who is in search for an all inclusive wedding venue that will cater to all your wants and needs to make your dream wedding come to life!!

Very happy that we chose The Moore Venue to have our wedding at. The food, drinks, & oyster bar were wonderful. Everything was beautiful & was executed perfectly. We can’t thank The Moore Venue enough for helping us celebrate!

Great team to work with, very accommodating. Great venue to have an all inclusive wedding! Very Spacious w/ great quality foods!

Our experience with The Moore was better than we could have possibly imagined. Everything was PERFECT! Our ceremony and reception were so beautiful; we got so many compliments afterwards. The fireplace was gorgeous filled with greenery and flowers from the florist. The food was delicious (this was something else our guests gave us plenty of compliments on). It was also so nice to be able to eat in the bridal suite with only my husband before the reception. The courtyard is a beautiful spot to take pictures especially after the sun went down; those were definitely some of our favorite photos from the night. The parking lots has plenty of safe parking for guests. The staff was beyond attentive the entire night; we didn't even have to ask for anything. Melanie was SO helpful throughout the entire process and always responded in a timely manner. She was super sweet and a rockstar at her job. With the drinks flowing and the provided DJ playing music saying that everyone had a blast at the reception was an understatement. If your guests say it was also the best night of their life, The Moore is doing everything right. I couldn't think of any negative things to say about this venue and their staff even down to the smallest detail. If you want a beautiful wedding without having to worry about all the small details and many different vendors this is the venue for you! I would recommend The Moore 1000 times.

My daughter's wedding was originally at Il Mercato in New Orleans on April 10, 2021 and with COVID we decided to move it to Metairie and we had the wedding and reception on May 21, 2021 at The Moore. To say that they were so accommodating is an understatement. From the minute I called and spoke to Melanie, I knew this was where we needed to be. She was extremely helpful and so understanding of our situation. Melanie went above and beyond to make things awesome for the family and the bride and groom. Their venue speaks for itself and was lovely and the food, it is absolutely the best. The employees who were the family attendants were amazing and helped so much the entire night. I just cannot say how much we loved The Moore and all of the employees and will recommend them to everyone!! Thank you to The Moor that my daughters wedding was absolutely amazing.

I am sooooo happy I chose The Moore as my wedding venue, the space is absolutely beautiful! I had gone to a reception here in February and knew right awaythis is the space I wanted for my big day! I planned my entire wedding in only a couple of months and Melanie made the experience a complete breeze! They offer so much to make your big day planning as easy and stress free as possible and make whatever you want possible. I had my beautiful ceremony/reception all in one space and it could not have gone more perfectly! The food was amazing and the bar is better than any wedding venue in the area. The bridal suite was a perfect space to enjoy some time with my husband after the ceremony. There is plenty of parking and the space is located in a safe area! The staff did an amazing job of checking on us all throughout the night. Only complaint is I wish I could relive the night over again! The space is beautiful for outdoor and indoor pictures, check out The Moore on Instagram for some of my beautiful pictures :)

I am so glad that I found this venue for my wedding! My wedding day was everything I dreamed of. Melanie and the staff made all of my wishes come true. They eliminated the stress of everything, which was a blessing since I finished college just two days before my wedding day! To this day, people still say how beautiful and fun my wedding was! I would HIGHLY recommend The Moore! You won’t regret it!

I cannot say enough great things about The Moore and Aaron! Basically, Aaron pulled together an entire reception for us in two months and it was EVERYTHING!!! We were supposed to have our reception downtown in New Orleans but due to covid-19 restrictions, we had to move our reception outside of the parish 2 months before our date (that we had been planning since 2018). Aaron was flexible, responsive, quick, and honestly the night was amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better reception. Not only is The Moore gorgeous but we had so many fun extra things like a champagne wall, sparkler exit, beignets, a photo booth, and signature drinks. If you're reading this unsure of a venue to pick, THIS IS YOUR SIGN! Go with The Moore, seriously, you will be soooo happy you did! I cannot sing their praises enough. Incredible people and an incredible venue!!

I can't say enough how much I loved this venue!! We were originally booked at a different reception hall in Orleans Parish, but, due to COVID, we needed to make a last minute venue change if we wanted to proceed with our wedding in October 2020. After stumbling across The Moore on Instagram, I sent them an email and prayed they were still available for our date. Amanda was quick to respond, and she was extremely understanding and welcoming!! My future husband, parents, and I were all SO in love with the space from the moment we visited. Amanda and her team blew us away with their professionalism, helpfulness, and positivity through the entire "re-planning" process just two months before our wedding. She customized a package for us, since we already had some of our own vendors. They made us feel completely at ease during such unprecedented, crazy times. The food, the drinks, the DJ (from The Moore), the setup, everything was PERFECT!!! I seriously could not have imagined a night so beautiful, but Amanda and her crew made it happen. Every single attendee has made a point to tell us after how impressed they were with our venue and how fantastic the food was. I refer anyone planning a wedding to check them out now because they really are the best in every single aspect!!!

I could not say enough good things about The Moore and Amanda specifically. We moved our reception from New Orleans due to the Covid restrictions and by pure luck, the Moore was available for our 12/12/20 date. Amanda is the kindest soul and took away every ounce of stress I had. When we had to change the reception the week before due to new restrictions, Amanda went above and beyond to make it work so we didn’t have to uninvite anyone that already RSVPd. They created an outdoor space with tents and the dance floor was outside but they made it beautiful and elegant. I had full trust in Amanda! Everything came out BEAUTIFUL and my now husband and I had the best time. The food was also so delicious!! Everything happens for a reason and if we had to it all over again, I would choose The Moore. They are nice people who truly care about your event and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone! Thank you SO SO much Amanda!! ❤️

I couldn't say enough good things about this venue. From the moment we met Amanda, we felt great about choosing The Moore for our special day. She kept us in the loop the entire way through all the hurdles 2020 brought us. She, was completely open to all of our ideas and allowed us to be creative to make our day, unique and memorable. The food was incredible, and plentiful. Noone left hungry, and every single guest that attended talked about our wedding for days after. The staff was courteous, and I truly couldn't be happier with the total outcome. If you're thinking about planning any event, definitely put this venue in consideration. You won't be disappointed.

Our Oct. 2020 wedding was everything we had hoped for and "MOORE!" In the midst of Covid-19 and hurricane Delta threatening our day, The Moore didn't flinch. BEAUTIFUL VENUE! EXCEPTIONAL STAFF! Best. Day. Ever :)

I recently had my wedding reception at the Moore in September of 2020. I truly don't know where to begin with this review because I still can't believe how beautiful the night turned out! The Moore has been recently renovated into a modern ballroom with classic touches. It has a large bar, fine linens, chandeliers, and a fireplace. The food was delicious, and the room looked completely stunning. The best part, however, is their wedding coordinator Amanda! Amanda is extremely professional and detail-oriented. Leading up to the wedding, she was always available for phone calls, emails, and meetings to discuss details. She listened to every detail and designed a plan for decorations, floorplan, and timeline. The Moore was so accommodating and really made our dreams come to life. On the night of our wedding, I was truly blown away! She went above and beyond with decorations and overall atmosphere. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful it was! Everything was flawless from the food to the end of the evening when they packaged leftover food and cake for my family. If I could do it all again, I would definitely choose the Moore again.

From the beginning of a Covid 19 pandemic wedding situation to the end of a fabulous reception Amanda at the Moore treated us like family. A summer of uncertainty led us to The Moore for our September 26, 2020 wedding. We were initially impressed with the beautiful renovations when we first saw the event space. Equally impressive to us was the professionalism of Amanda as she gave us hope that they would be there for us . The room was absolutely gorgeous on the wedding night!! Everything from the linens, chairs, candle/greenery arrangements, floor plan ,and cake table were perfect!!! The food was also delicious and we received many compliments. They truly put in so much effort down to the last detail!! We also were impressed with how they packed up our things with care and sent us home at the end of the night with neatly packed food and cake. The team at The Moore gave us a fabulous night and it proved to be our silver lining in 2020 ! It was truly more than we could have ever hoped for and definitely our areas newest and best kept secret!!!!!

The Moore Venue stepped in 3 weeks before our wedding and exceeded all expectations! From the first conversation, Amanda was engaged, she worked with us, and made a crazy COVID19 wedding a true reality. Truly an Angel. Changing our venue so close to the date was nerve wracking to say the least but she put us at ease and handled everything with grace! We had an amazing wedding and one couldn’t even tell everything that went into putting this day together. Our wedding was flawlessly executed and Amanda is a large reason for that being the case. Our guests loved the food, especially the beignets and boudin balls. The Moore Venue is an amazing venue with a wonderful staff who truly will work to create a top notch experience for you.

We cannot say enough good things about The Moore! We had to postpone our wedding from May to August due to Covid, which forced us to have to quickly find a new wedding venue and reception space. Not only did they take so much stress off of us by taking care of every detail, but they made our special day even better than what we could have imagined. We were also told by multiple guests that the food was the best they had ever had at a wedding, which I also have to agree with! Overall a fantastic experience!

We had our wedding and reception here in June and it was absolutely perfect! The ballroom has a rustic vibe beautifully lit with candles, and the staff were all wonderful! They took care of everything! Literally all I had to do was show up and they did everything else! My bridesmaids and I were able to come to the venue hours before the wedding to get ready in the bridal suite and the staff checked on us regularly to see if we needed anything. I couldn't have asked for a more delightful experience! OH! and the food was delicious!!

The Moore is absolutely amazing!!! Caroline was wonderful to work with and I have never tasted such delicious food at a wedding. My guests were raving about the food and service all night long!! The servers are friendly and efficient and I can't imagine you can find a better experience anywhere!!! The Moore was a five star experience all around and I know my guests would all agree. Everything was exactly the way we discussed and we provided transportation to our guests from St. Patrick's Church in New Orleans which was a short and easy drive. You will love this venue!!!!

We can’t say enough about this venue and the wonderful staff! Amongst all the chaos and uncertainty involved with trying to plan a wedding during the COVID-19 crisis, Amanda and her team made sure that our wedding night was as special as it could possibly be. We originally planned to have our small wedding ceremony followed by a mini-reception at a parent’s house. However, in a matter of a couple of weeks, Amanda put together a beautiful wedding reception that was more than we could have ever asked. The facility itself is incredible. We had previously been to a reception at the “Rose Garden” as the building was formerly known, and this new venue was completely unrecognizable. Everything is brand new and decorated with a very classy, modern look that my wife absolutely loved. Everyone was raving about how elegant it looked - especially the new flooring and the beautiful brick fireplace in the center of the room. The food was all taken care of by Amanda as well through 12 Seasons Catering which is in house, and we were blown away. We could have stayed in the bridal suite and just ate food all night. The staff was amazing, constantly checking in to make sure they were doing everything possible to make our night the best experience possible. After seeing what they can do with only a couple of weeks of planning, we would absolutely recommend using The Moore for any wedding plans! One of the only good things to come out of the Covid fiasco was us falling luckily into what has to be one of the nicest wedding venues in the entire city! If we started the planning process all over again from the beginning, we would choose The Moore 100/100 times!

Amazing! Josh and I had the time of our lives thanks to the Moore! Caroline, Amanda and Eric were so easy and fun to work with. The food was delicious. The new renovations make for spectacular pictures! Josh and I cannot thank you enough!

Most brides have their weddings perfectly planned out months before their actual date. I was one of them or at least I thought I was. The original venue I chose the previous year sold their business to a catering company weeks before my wedding. My heart dropped, and fear set in! Changes were occurring quickly, and there wasn’t a thing I could do about it. I had to trust the new owners to do everything that would make the place beautiful and help make my reception perfect. They did just that! Caroline and Eric are amazing people! They put my mind at ease and definitely exceeded my expectations! They made the night so pleasant and amazing that I never felt rushed. I enjoyed every second of my reception! If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t have changed a thing. Everything happens for a reason, and I believe they were meant to coordinate my reception. Thank you for everything you have done for me! I wish you all of the best, since that’s how you made me feel!

My husband and I originally booked our reception when this venue was still the rose garden. Fran and Amie Tusa helped us plan our entire wedding from catering to wedding schedule entirely though emails and phone calls since we live in California. They were very responsive, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I had my heart set on their family running our reception since we really bonded with them. Ownership of the venue changed approximately 3-4 weeks before our wedding so we were pretty much scrambling to make sure everything was going to go according to our contract. Amanda the new coordinator was very helpful in going through our wedding reception plans, food, table settings, etc. she was easy to contact and communicate with. They also updated the venue with a newer more modern feel to it which was nice. Our wedding reception was beautiful and food was great. It just felt very unorganized and rushed. The DJ played the wrong garter song, we asked to cut our first dance song at 3 minutes but it was even cut shorter which was a little awkward. There were no knifes to cut the cake when it was time and half of the guests didn’t even know we were cutting our cake. Our guests were a little confused as far as seating and getting food goes and I had to prompt the staff that my parents weren’t being served right away when guests already had food before them. Overall it just felt unorganized. I understand they were taking over weddings planned in a different way by the previous owners so I could see how that is stressful, but it just wasn’t what we expected. Nevertheless, the bar flowed throughout the night and people still had a great time. We probably were the only ones who noticed the problems which is fine. I think over time this venue will improve.

My niece got married under the new owners. The bridal attendant was awesome especially since she has to take care of both the bride & groom and the bride table. My mom's glass was no less than half empty when she was there to top it off. The servers were always there picking up dirty dishes. The only negative is I found the wedding coordinator rushed my niece at times. Everyone enjoyed themselves. A lot of guests didn't know about a sign in table due to the location of it. Guests who left early left without a favor due to them being put out at the very end of the wedding.

Fran and Amie were the best people to work with for our wedding reception!! They are quick to respond and truly want to make it the best night for you. The food is incredible and we loved the small details they put into the reception (custom drink for the couple, customized napkins, etc). They eased any worry I had during the planning process and I felt so comfortable with them. Our attendant during the wedding was super sweet and extremely helpful with bringing us drinks and leading us through the night. The DJ was also amazing by playing from our list of songs but by also gauging the crowd to see what to play next. Lastly, our guests continue to tell us that it was the funnest wedding they had ever been to. HIGHLY recommend having your wedding reception at The Rose Garden. They will definitely make it the best night of your life!

The venue is family owned so everyone works so nicely together and they are very very patient and kind. Wish the wedding could have been longer!! Lol xoxo

Everyone at The Rose Garden was so amazing! From the very beginning to the very last step we took out of the building and into our limo to leave our reception, everything was perfect! They truly make you feel like family, and that’s what made the biggest impact on my husband and me— and didn’t feel like this huge business transaction, but rather it felt like we were all working together as a team! And they are totally great at working with you, even when the requests are last minute as a few of mine were. And they were also of utmost support of me upon the death of my Dad a few months before my wedding. They were so willing to work with me through that time, and I’m so overjoyed to have gotten to know the Tusa Family! The food was great, the event space was great! My husband and I loved the little private nook where we got to step away for a few minutes to take some bites of food and sips of our drinks while the party was happening! Totally recommend The Rose Garden for anyone’s future events!

From the moment we walked in to the Rose Garden to the minute we left after our wedding, we felt like we were a part of their family. Fran and Amie were so wonderful throughout the planning process. You can tell that they love what they do. Amie sent us monthly updates to keep us on track with deadlines, making sure we had our other vendors and ancillaries ready in time. She was always available for whatever we needed, even the smallest questions. I even made a last minute request (literally the day of) and they were able to accommodate it. The venue is so beautiful, I didn't even need to bring in many of my own decorations, just a few for the tables. We both loved the light play on the walls and tables. The food was amazing, perfectly New Orleans. Our guests are still talking about how great it was. Plus it was so affordable for what was included (pretty much everything!). We even got our own attendant who was so attentive and we loved her. We can't thank you guys enough for making our day so easy, seamless, and beautiful!

Having our wedding at the Rose Garden was a home rune! Fran and Amie were extremely helpful with keeping us organized ahead of the big day, and I actually felt love throughout the process. The place looked amazing and the staff was extremely professional on wedding day. My gorgeous bride was pleased with the outcome, and I've received nothing but praise from family and friends. Five Stars!
