"We would rather have spent our first wedded night together nowhere else. This mansion, and our reception, have been both blessed by the caring and attentive hand of the proprietress-Hollie. Her warmth is reflected in Magnolia Mansion’s rich decor, her creativity in the theme, and her care in every smallest detail. Thank you so much for providing such a wonderful beginning to our marriage. Thanks for making our wedding reception an amazing experience for all involved. We will always look back and cherish those memories."

“The Beauty of Louisiana Weddings”
“The starting point for any wedding is a fabulous venue. For planners seeking the cosmopolitan society of historic New Orleans, the Magnolia Mansion is an ideal choice. Built in 1858 in the Garden District, the home’s raised Greek revival architecture features a remarkable wrap-around veranda and eleven Corinthian columns. The property is versatile enough to accommodate any size wedding, from a private ceremony for just the bride and groom to festivities for 500 guests.
The mansion offers two courtyards, one very large and one smaller, filled with beautiful scented gardens.
The historic home is also a romantic, adult’s only Bed and Breakfast with nine uniquely-themed rooms, each with a private bath. With its proximity to the St. Charles, streetcar, antique shops on Magazine St., and major tourist attractions, out of town guests will be especially impressed. Magnolia Mansion’s wedding coordinator is available to arrange the catering, flowers, music, and everything else needed to stage a successful day. “

Mansion
You are getting
married to the love of your life and you want this joyous occasion
to be just as you’ve always imagined.
Whatever you
desire, a traditional southern wedding or a unique theme wedding,
your wish is our command. Magnolia Mansion is the perfect wedding
and reception location.
From the moment
you enter the grand hall and are greeted by larger than life statues
of Aphrodite and Eros, the Greek deities of love, you’ll realize
that fantasies can come true.
The Greek Revival
Mansion boasts eleven massive Corinthian columns supporting an enormous
verandah, making Magnolia Mansion one of the most photographed architectural
treasures in New Orleans. Massive live oaks frame the mansion and
its beautifully landscaped and immense courtyard.
Whether your
wedding party is intimate or large, our courtyard makes a memorable
and romantic setting.
For wedding parties of 40 people or less, or perhaps an elopement,
the mansion’s grand hallway makes a dramatic entrance for
every bride. Our red hallway symbolizes love and passion and is
especially perfect for a Valentine’s Day or Christmas wedding.
For receptions
of up to 350, the mansion and veranda provide the perfect ambiance
for celebrating.
A complimentary honeymoon suite is provided the night of the wedding
and/or reception in the mansion or courtyard.
Magnolia Mansion
can also provide accommodations of up to eight additional rooms
for your friends and family and set a new standard of opulence for
romantic guest houses in New Orleans.
Wedding and
rehearsal dinners can be tailored to your specifications and catered
in our beautiful dining room.
Why not let Magnolia Mansion’s on site wedding coordinator
take care of all of your wedding and reception needs.
Considered the
“Gateway to the Garden District”, Magnolia Mansion is
located one block from the St. Charles Avenue streetcar and within
minutes of the French Quarter and Convention Center.
After all of
the planning, anticipation and festivities, all that are left are
the memories. This magical moment in time will be relived and celebrated
every year for the rest of your lives.
