House of Broel

We had such an amazing experience with everyone at house of Broel. Denise made us feel like family. Everything from start to finish was taken care of for me and I was made to feel like a queen. If you’re doing a New Orleans wedding I highly recommend House of Broel, Bonnie Broel has put in an amazing staff to make sure you have a wonderful time. And she is such an amazing woman to meet. We loved every moment of our special day.

My daughter chose House of Broel because of the courtyard ceremony and the beautiful house inside besides the fact they did everything and all you have to do is show up for a destination wedding. Ms Broel keeps great communication every step , comes to the wedding and gives a guided tour to your guests of her dollhouse museum that she handmade each one and tells the history of the family and how she acquired it. There is a frog museum upstairs and it’s rooms are also great for pictures. The entire staff from the servers to the bridal consultants and the food and bar was awesome! The frogs in the courtyard seemed to hold their breath until the ceremony was over and then started singing. Every guest was so happy and said it was a memorable experience. Don’t forget to have a second line band take you through the house and down the sidewalk. I’d highly recommend Kenneth Hagans band . The entire wedding was affordable and right in our budget. You won’t be disappointed.

I really had a wonderful wedding service everything was right on time. Ms Broel did a wonderful wedding ceremony she truly a beautiful person very professional and the place is beautiful so much history there.

I recently had my wedding at HOB and it was magical to say the least. Denise and Bonnie were attentive to all of my questions, my family members, our tons of items being shipped to the venue, and all of our different personalities that were involved in the wedding. We picked this place based on the venue atmosphere, and the amazing garden it really was and is beautiful. The venue leaves very little to nothing to do in terms of decorating. The food was pretty good and never stopped! My only complaint was the dj, DJ Rick. There were issues with the initial dj which was out of their control. However the new dj assured me that he had all the songs from my list of songs to be played and he did not stick to the list of songs to be played. It was especially upsetting since the DJ had verbally confirmed with me and my attendant three times that he would play the songs from the list and he had everything under control. The lack of dependability of the DJ might not have been anything that HOB could've controlled however perhaps the vetting process could have been better? On a positive note my attendant for the day was amazing!! Thank you Cheri for your help, your kind words, and your glowing personality. I would definitely recommend HOB to any bride and or friend wanting to have an event there. I would only add that the person should stay on top of the DJ, if that is something that is important to you. The music was very important for my husband and I and we thought we had done a good job staying on top of the situation however I couldn't have predicted the DJ to lie to me (several times). Also be assured that the team at HOB has everything under control, they are professionals and are pros at running events. Thank you all once again for your help, smiling faces, and warm wishes.

October is our favorite month, and Halloween our favorite holiday, so we naturally decided to have a Halloween-themed wedding. But where should we hold our spooktacular event? We read reviews and talked to several consultants, but it was House of Broel that won us over. The home is to die for. It is an absolutely perfect venue filled with beautiful antiques, hardwood floors, and much history. We took a tour with Mrs. Broel and fell in love with her, her story, and her home. Our event was obviously not going to be traditional, and Mrs. Broel and her staff went out of their way to make sure everything was just perfect. The venue has everything a couple needs, but knowing we wanted a macabre setting, our consultant, Denise, would suggest purchasing such things as a themed cake knife and glasses. These little touches were things we hadn't thought of, and we appreciated her guidance and advice in helping us plan our event. The outside of the home is gorgeous as well, and we wanted our ceremony to be held in the lush courtyard, but the night before it stormed. There were heavy rains and strong winds. The morning of our wedding we got a call asking if we were willing to have the ceremony inside instead because the courtyard was a mess because of the storm. We didn't mind at all. Like I mentioned, the home is gorgeous. When we arrived, however, the staff at House of Broel had gone out of their way to dry chairs and make sure the garden was clean for us. I cannot tell you just how much they accommodated every little need we had. We were so pleased and happy. They made our dream event a reality, and we were so grateful for everything they did for us. We live in New Orleans, so we are aware and proud of our city's reputation for being welcoming to others. New Orleanians want you to feel at home. Mrs. Broel and her staff did just that. They made us feel welcome and at home. I truly could not recommend House of Broel enough. It was an excellent venue with an even more excellent staff. Our dream was realized, and the wonderful memories that helped create for us will be forever etched in our hearts.

We had our dream wedding at the House of Broel. The entire staff was both highly professional and friendly. The house itself is exactly what you hope for and imagine when you picture a charming old southern mansion on St. Charles Avenue. Bonnie, our gracious host, was also our minister; and she gave a truly touching ceremony in the ethereal back court yard. Denise, the coordinator, made us feel right at home. If there was anything we forgot, she remembered and already took care of it. Patrick, the chef, was a rockstar. All of our guest’s raved about the food which was truly excellent New Orleans cuisine. One of my favorite parts was the very thoughtful go boxes with each menu item in it. They made for a romantic second dinner later on at the B&B. Overall, I recommend this venue to anyone planning a party in New Orleans.

House of Broel provided loving, personal attention with professional care for our son Daniel’s wedding. Bonnie’s ceremony was beautiful. Her thoughtful, eloquent words regarding the grooms’ lives brought joy to them as well as their family and guests. Denise and Cheri rocked prepping everyone for the ceremony and they continued to provide top notch service to everyone throughout the reception. Thanks for making this memorable family event everything we hoped and dreamed it would be. Also thanks to The Red M Studio for this great pic of Bonnie and the grooms.

Wonderful experience. Beautiful house, great ceremony, delicious cake, fun and friendly employees. No stress wedding/elopement was exactly what we were looking for. Denise went above and beyond helping me get laced into my dress. Rev. Bonnie was very accommodating with what we wanted in our vows/ceremony. Louis was an excellent photographer. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The house was BEAUTIFUL! The venue was perfect for our small wedding. Everyone was very helpful throughout the process. All my questions answered in a timely manner. I would recommend House of Broel to anyone.

We loved our experience with House of Broel. We do not live close to Nola, and planning the wedding from afar was a breeze. The team at Broel took care of almost everything in house, and if they could not, they recommended great vendors who they have extensive relationships with. The value for everything was off the charts - venue, food, beverages, and cake all covered??? We got a Second Line band come during the reception and every guest we talk to still talks about it.
The House itself is amazing! There is literally nothing like it. Oozing with Nola flavor, and unique even for the city.
