Rehearsal Dinner

Ashley was an absolute pleasure to work with. Always responsive in a timely manner.
The evening of our dinner went smoothly and the staff was most attentive and efficient. The food was superb. Many thanks Brennan’s!

Amazing staff, food, setting!

I have been eating at Brennan's since I was a tiny girl. When we decided to have a wedding in NOLA, there was no question the reception would be at Brennan's. Ashley Brodie led me through the entire thing, from start to finish, and helped to manage every single detail for me. My guests are still talking about it, the food, the courtyard lighting, the set up, arrangements, everything down to the finest details were handled perfectly. All of the staff was friendly and attentive to all of us throughout the night. If you want to have a wedding reception in New Orleans, there's simple no other place to do it!!!!

Memorable Experience

We had a destination wedding in New Orleans and chose Brennan's as our venue. They did not disappoint. Ashley Brodie was wonderful coordinating everything. The food was delicious, the rooms (Havana Room & Morphy) were absolutely beautiful. All our guests loved it. We had a minor mix up with the number of tables but the staff was very quick to fix it with no hesitation. All in all it was a truly wonderful and memorable experience.

Great experience coordinating our wedding dinner

My wife and I live on the East Coast and planned a destination wedding in New Orleans. Brennan's was very responsive and made remotely coordinating our wedding dinner very stress free. The space is beautiful and gave us some amazing after wedding photos. The service was great, and the food was incredible.

We had our rehearsal dinner and 'welcome party' at Brennan's on March 22, 2018. We had the rehearsal dinner in the King's Room on the second floor, and the welcome party in the courtyard. It was the perfect way to welcome our guests (all from out of town) to New Orleans - especially out on the balcony overlooking Royal Street from the King's room! The food at Brennan's was absolutely fantastic (as you'd expect), and the service was wonderful as well. We actually saw our "personal" server from that night from the street (waving to us from Brennan's) during our second line the next day! We worked with Ashley Brodie throughout the process who was responsive and helpful throughout as we chose our menu and figured out which spaces to host our events in. All in all it was a wonderful experience and the most iconic spot to kick off our wedding weekend!

Great experience at Brennan's for our wedding. Seated dinner for 80, went off perfectly. Many out of town guests and they were all blown-away with the food. Would do it there again in a heartbeat!

Brennan's provided a beautiful, well organized venue for our rehearsal dinner. The food was delicious, the staff well trained and responsive, and the refined atmosphere provided a relaxed, yet civil background for our evening of cheer and pre wedding excitement.

I don't even know where to start - Brennan's was my absolute favorite part of my wedding! From the very start of wedding planning to the end of our wedding night, Ashley made the process so easy and enjoyable. The food, drinks, and staff were incredible. Fan favorites included the oyster bar and shrimp & grits! We worked with Ashley, the wedding coordinator, who had all details laid out and coordinated all of the vendors so I did not have to worry about a thing when it came to the reception. It's apparent that she has tons of experience with wedding planning, and that is invaluable. People are still talking about how this our wedding was one of the best they've been to, and I know that's 100% thanks to Ashley and the Brennan's team. HIGHLY recommend them for any event that you may be considering them for.
