Amazing choice for wedding & stay!

The Terrell House was an excellent choice for our wedding and stay! We rented out the entirety of the bed and breakfast for the weekend of our wedding day! Anica, the coordinator, Alex, the chef, and ALL the staff were incredible. Linda was by far the best she worked with us to achieve our dream wedding and she went above and beyond for us. My wife and I will always be eternally grateful for all that was done for us. If you have the opportunity to host your own wedding here don’t hesitate!

Spectacular, storybook setting

The Terrell House B&B was the most amazing venue and the perfect choice for our destination wedding. I cannot say enough positive things about the property, location, amenities, catering and most importantly, the staff. I worked with Ms. Linda over the phone and by email prior to a site visit. She offered fantastic suggestions for vendors and was a delight to work with. If possible, the B&B is more impressive in person and we were thrilled with our choice. It is seriously a stunning venue and offered a fantastic New Orleans experience. One of the best parts is that we were able to rent out the entire B&B for our guests which really added to the overall wedding experience. The rooms are amazing and no detail is overlooked. Ms. Linda has impeccable taste and has done a fabulous job decorating the mansion. EVERYONE was impressed, and I do mean every single guest that I spoke to mentioned how amazing the venue was. They also made sure to comment on the quality and taste of the food not only during our reception, but each day at breakfast. Ms. Linda and her staff, especially Ms. Nika, went above and beyond to assist myself and my family during our stay. From helping my parents secure airport transportation to making sure my son's allergies were being considered, the staff truly took care of us. Ms. Nika even got us food during our reception and then wrapped it up for us when we were swept away for another photo obligation. (She is an angel!) The personalized, professional service they offered was not only sincerely appreciated, but such a rarity these days. The Terrell House B&B holds a special place in my heart and I cannot wait to return.

The ideal location for an intimate wedding

My daughter's wedding at Terrell House was beyond our expectations. This B&B checked all the boxes when it came to our wedding needs. With the help of Linda and her wonderful assistant and chef we were able to plan a destination wedding in four months. Their attention to detail is amazing and made all the difference in creating the perfect wedding day. From the beautifully appointed rooms in the house, the amazing adjoining courtyard, delicious food and the comfortable, quiet accommodations it was everything the bride and groom hoped for and more. I was apprehensive trying to plan a destination wedding but Linda put me at ease offering suggestions for all kinds of vendors such as the photographer, bakery, 2nd line band and transportation and then coordinated with each of them to ensure that everything ran smoothly. She also offered to provide the flowers for the wedding party and tables and they were gorgeous. If we didn't think of a detail, they did. It was great working with the whole team. It was also nice to be able to stay right on site and enjoy all that the B&B had to offer. We will definitely stay here again. If you want an all inclusive intimate location for your wedding with professional, experienced wedding coordinators look no further than the Terrell House. You will not be disappointed.

We had a beautiful wedding at The Terrell House-the venue really exudes charm and comfort while still feeling upscale and classy. All of our guests gave us rave reviews, with many saying it was the nicest wedding they had every been to! We really didn't have to splurge much on flowers or decor, The Terrell House itself is really all you need, everything else is a bonus. Linda was great to work with and has wonderful taste. Because there are two other lovely buildings associated with the main property, our family was also able to stay at the venue for our wedding weekend. The celebratory atmosphere this provided was magical and something I will always cherish. Bottom line-The Terrell House is a gem!

Really loved Terrell House. Linda and her chefs were very flexible and delivered a gorgeous vegan wedding for us (complete with vegan ice cream). Our families stayed there for the weekend and loved it.

We had the honor of getting married and having our reception at the Terrell House on 10/21. Miss Linda, the owner, is the most accommodating and lovely person to work with. Not only did she help us with the planning process and respond to every crazy stressed out wedding planning email I had for over a year, but she made our wedding more beautiful than even we imagined it could be. The Terrell House alone is so beautiful you don't really need any decorations, but the flowers that Linda puts together herself will blow you away. I sent her a collage of pictures on my flower ideas, and what we got was so perfect, it was like she read my mind. What food we served was very important to us, and you will not be disappointed by the food here, it was exceptional, my guests are still telling me how delicious it was. I had guests tell me that the crawfish toast that Linda recommended was the best thing they have ever eaten. The rooms within the Terrell House are so put together and beautiful that you really feel like a special bride staying there on your wedding night, or getting ready the day of in one. Linda also deals with all the vendors day of, like having the cake and liquor delivered, so it was another thing that I didn't have to worry about. The level of service that you receive here is second to none, we had such a beautiful day, in the perfect New Orleans courtyard. I highly recommend the Terrell House to anyone, and cannot thank Linda enough for making our dream wedding happen.

My goal was to have an outside wedding, and I loved the look of a courtyard. I wanted to find a location that would look good even with a tent if it rained. I searched all over New Orleans and Terrell was the perfect match for the look I wanted and my budget. The house fit all of my family to stay for the weekend, the food was incredible, and working with Linda made everything a breeze! She was very honestly with pricing and was always willing to work with us on literally everything! Such as, I didn’t order flowers for the tables because of my budget, but my mother-in-law was able to send them over from the rehearsal dinner to the Terrell house for the wedding where Linda stored and dressed them with up with leftovers from my bouquet. Linda and the staff went above and beyond to make the wedding day amazing. I would love to come back and stay in the house for an anniversary. Thank you so much!
