Booking Latrobe’s as our venue was the smartest decision we made while wedding planning.

We have nothing but praise for Latrobe’s and an abundance of it, at that. Rylan, Millie, Hana, and the entire team are rockstars of the wedding industry. They guided us through the planning process with warmth and expertise, giving us complete confidence that our day would be perfect. As out-of-towners, we were especially grateful for how easy they made it to plan from afar without the need to enlist an outside planner. They were generous with their time, incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and deeply knowledgeable about all things wedding-related.

The venue itself is both stunning and historic, a true showstopper that requires minimal decor. The carriage house was the perfect setting for a romantic, intimate ceremony, while the main reception space easily transformed from an elegant soirée into an all-out dance party with just a change in lighting.

Beyond the planning, the Latrobe’s team and day-of staff know how to execute an event. The food and drinks are phenomenal. Since everything is made onsite, we never had to worry about timing, temperature, or anything running out. Rylan was instrumental in making the day run smoothly without us ever having to take on any stress. She made it so we could be the guests of honor at our event, not the hosts. This care extended to our parents as well who had attendants making sure they had everything they needed throughout the night.

Our family and friends couldn’t stop raving about how amazing the venue was and many said it was the best wedding they have ever attended. We are already trying to convince everyone in our lives to have events at Latrobe’s so we can keep returning for more top-tier parties.

Amazing Venue

Dear Rylan,
I wanted to express my deepest appreciation for the exceptional service, exquisite food, and flawless event coordination you and your team provided for my daughter's wedding on Friday. As parents, watching this day unfold so beautifully — truly a dream come true — meant more to us than words can capture. Seeing our children so happy, surrounded by such care and perfection, is something we will cherish forever.

I have never witnessed such remarkable attention to detail. Every moment flowed seamlessly, and it was clear how much pride and dedication your entire team brings to their work. Our guests were genuinely overwhelmed by the beauty of the venue, the quality of the food, and the warmth and professionalism of your staff. You created an experience that exceeded every expectation.

I also want to give a very special shoutout to Michael, who went above and beyond — even after the celebration ended — by personally delivering my daughter's dress and her husbands jacket, and two bags of food to the hotel. That level of thoughtfulness and commitment is rare, and it meant so much to our family.

Thank you, truly, for helping create a day that was not only perfect, but unforgettable.

Spectacular Venue

Can’t say enough about Latrobe’s. The venue is simply beautiful, and the staff is beyond amazing.

My son and Daughter-in law had both their wedding and reception here in November of 2025.

Rylan was absolutely invaluable to us during the entire process. She was so organized from our first planning session and tasting meeting to the day of the event! She made things happen and almost knew what we needed without us even saying. Working seamlessly with the family and all of our vendors to make sure all deadlines were met and details were ironed out, she was able to take so much stress off of our Bride. The night of the wedding we were so well taken care of the entire time from start to finish! Rylan actually became very special to us during the whole process. We cannot imagine planning a big event without her! .

I had no idea as the mother of the groom I would have the experience that I had, I felt as spoiled as a bride. Marte and Bonnie were my guardian angels all night! They laughed
with me more times than I can count all while making sure I was never without what I needed from drink to food to a place to sit, Bonnie even helped me alter my dress on the fly! They also were so very very attentive to our families, specially our aging grandparents who needed a little extra attention. They just made us all feel so very special. By the end of the night we were actually sad to leave them!

The food was unbelievable. Some of the best New Orleans Style and flavor I’ve ever had. As a Louisiana native I’ve had food from all over and all of the very best restaurants, I would put Latrobe’s menu right next to any of them. Every dish was delicious!

The moody lighting and stunning old world feeling makes decorating a breeze . We almost didn’t want to cover up anything with flowers and decorations! The venue itself is simply beautiful. Table setting, coverings placement around the venue were all perfect. They gave us several options for arranging the rooms and helped us choose the one that kept things flowing beautifully throughout the night. The room flip from wedding to reception was so well planned and happened very quickly.

You cannot go wrong here!I highly recommend Latrobe’s!

Best venue in Nola!!

There are no words to describe the MAGIC that is Latrobe's on Royal. From the moment I saw pictures of this stunning, romantic, beautiful building I knew it was where I wanted to get married. Every single time I walked into this building, I got the chills. There is just something so special and unique about it and it's truly a one in a million venue. On top of that, Millie and Rylan and the entire staff (David and Michael we love you!!) could not have been better in the planning process and on the actual wedding day. They truly treated us like royalty and were there for anything we may have needed throughout the night. I could not recommend Latrobe's and the team more. Our guests have not stopped talking about the magic that was our wedding at Latrobe's.

Dream Wedding Day at Latrobe's.

Working with the team at Latrobe’s was the best decision we made during our wedding planning process. The venue was beautiful, elegant, and sophisticated providing our dream atmosphere with the perfect French Quarter location. The food was phenomenal as was the attention to detail in the execution of the entire event. Yet what truly stood out was the level of service provided. Led by Rylan, the entire team top to bottom went above and beyond to ensure a smooth experience from start to finish. From the initial transparency in booking the venue, through the tasting, rehearsal and final day we felt taken care of and confident that we were in the hands of seasoned professionals who are experts in their craft.

I cannot recommend Latrobe’s highly enough. If you’re looking to host an event in the French Quarter and would like to know that you’ll be working with the best in the business do not hesitate to make Latrobe’s your choice.

Latrobe's is pure magic!

Latrobe’s on Royal is the perfect wedding venue! As an out of town bride, booking at Latrobe’s made the planning process way easier. So much so that we did not feel the need to hire a wedding planner. The venue’s highly-skilled and experienced team are able to provide helpful insights every step of the way and are always willing to answer questions. Their vendor list is very helpful, everyone they recommended did an incredible job. The building itself is nothing short of magical. Giving our guests a real taste of New Orleans was incredibly important. If our guests did nothing else during their trip, we wanted them to feel like they had an experience unique to the city. Latrobe’s definitely helped us achieve that. From the beautiful courtyard complete with burning gas lamps, to the grand banking room, to the wonderful food selection of delicious regional delicacies. Many of our guests told us that they felt they had been transported back in time. That it was the best, most unique wedding they had ever attended – and with the best food! Lastly, the team at Latrobe’s is incredible – I actually miss talking to them every week! (LOL) Rylan, Hana, and Millie are the best. I am so grateful for their expertise, patience, and kindness during the entire planning process. A big thank you to Rylan especially for her guidance during our tasting and rehearsal! We would also like to thank the day-of event team, including Marté and David, who made us feel so special on our wedding day. Many of our guests commented on the kindness of the Latrobe’s staff who made them feel so welcome. In conclusion, there are simply not enough stars to accurately review Latrobe’s! If you have been searching for a venue in New Orleans, congratulations, you’ve found it! Trust me. We will cherish the memories forever.

No one does it quite like Latrobe's

To start, I think my wedding was without a doubt the best night of my life thanks to Latrobe's. To us, the night was perfect. From the champagne skirt upon reception entrance, to the INCREDIBLE food, the staff dancing with everyone on the dance floor, Marte making sure we were always having fun and had a drink in hand, to Rylan at the helm of a second line to end the night. I can't even count how many people came up to us to sing praises of the Latrobe's team, but if I had to guess, it was all 120 of our guests! The Latrobe's team are some of the most wonderful people we've ever had the pleasure of meeting and we will never forget all that they did for us. I truly don't think there is a venue out there that does it better than them. We have had the time of our lives working with these wonderful people to pull off our New Orleans destination wedding and my only wish is that I can do it all over again with them every year. From the very bottom of our hearts, thank you for everything!

A True New Orleans Venue for a Party

My wife and I cannot speak highly enough of Latrobe's and the ladies that run the place. They are experts in parties/weddings and made the planning seamless. They know the place well and so help guide bands, photographers, and florists who all also know the place well and what it takes to do a wedding in the French Quarter. It was no big deal to have a Colombian "hora loca" at our wedding and they helped make that happen. The building itself is gorgeous, the food delicious. Everyone we know said the wedding was amazing and Latrobe's was one of the main reasons.

A Dream Come True

The team at Latrobe’s is absolutely fantastic! My husband and I are from NYC and got married this past October. Millie, Rylan, and Hana from start to finish were beyond helpful, especially with planning a wedding from out-of-state. The venue is so unique and gorgeous and the on-site team is spectacular. We would like to give a very special thanks to Marté, who helped us on our wedding day to make sure things ran smoothly and perfectly. The food and drinks were just as wonderful. We can’t say how many times our guests told us this was the best wedding they had ever been to. We would do it all over again in a heartbeat!
