About

On WeddingWire since 2012

Located in Braithwaite, Louisiana, Stella is an event venue suitable for hosting weddings. Couples can hold their ceremony and reception surrounded by 1500 acres of natural landscape. The venue contains a number of covered and uncovered event spaces across the grounds, including the steps of the house.

Facilities and Capacity

Stella can accommodate between 25 and 1,000 guests, with a variety of site options available depending on the scale of your celebrations. The entrance to the main residence can be decorated to reflect your vision for an outdoor gathering. The mansion’s facade features two-story columns, a low-pitched roof, and complete symmetry. Additionally, there are a number of sites on the grounds for receptions, including a covered pavilion which you can embellish to make your own. Side panels can be removed to open the celebrations into the night and the space is climate-controlled to help keep guests cool on hot days. Alternatively, interior barn-style facilities are also available for the reception. A well-appointed guest house with a number of amenities is provided for the wedding party to get ready in.

Services Offered

The professional team at the venue offers an abundance of services to help the occasion run as smoothly as possible. Their on-site event planner works with couples to help create their vision. They can organize a range of unique add-ons, such as a decor package, outdoor games including giant Jenga and Corn Hole, and a photo booth. For a memorable farewell, an additional feature of their service includes an exuberant fireworks display. Furthermore, the venue allows outside vendors so couples can further tailor the experience to meet their requirements. Customizable menu options are available to help ensure that every element of the special day reflects couples’ themes.

Accommodation

The main house on the grounds provides sleeping facilities for the couple of honor and their closest loved ones. The five-bedroom mansion contains lounge areas, a poker table, and a large bar. Additionally, there is a private honeymoon suite available for the newlyweds, featuring a king-sized bed and marble restroom.

Magical, beautiful venue

Stella was everything I could dream of! You get a blank canvas to decorate anyway you can think of and Shelby - the venue coordinator was the best! I would do it all over again!

Everything about Stella is perfect and you should absolutely book it for your wedding or event if you are looking for a outdoor/plantation venue. We had out December 9th, 2017 Sangeet event (wedding event 1 for Indian wedding weekends) at Stella and from start to finish we are so happy with how everything turned out.

Selecting the venue:
We chose stella on our first visit to New Orleans (we are from New York) in April. Our only concerns were the distance from downtown where our guests were going to be staying, and the backup plan for inclement weather. In the end we decided the place and overall value were worth those risks and booked it!

Wedding Planning:
Everything regarding Stella in terms of planning was easy and amazing. From site visits by our vendors, to responsiveness for meetings and calls, to flexibility in last minute changes - Caroline made it very easy for us to plan our big fat indian affair at the plantation. This is particularly amazing \ considering we were out of town and only ever visited the venue twice before the big day!

The Event:
This weekend ended up being one of the coldest on record for New Orleans so we had to make some big changes to our layout and fast. With Caroline's help we booked a tent and outdoor heaters to make the beautiful lawn usable in the near freezing temps. During the event Caroline helped to make sure we could close the tent and get the heater in the tent working to make it as comfortable as possible for the majority of the event when people were inside. While we wish we had better weather the wildly unepxected conditions were dealt with wonderfully by Stella and in the end we have no regrets :)

Thank you so much for making our event so special. Caroline really went above and beyond in every opportunity she could. We only wish we could come back and do it again :)
