The Barnett is a historic hotel and one-of-a-kind wedding venue located in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana. Set within a restored 1920s-era art deco building—once home to the Barnett Furniture Store—the property blends timeless elegance with the electric spirit of the city. Just steps from picture-perfect St. Charles Avenue and the oak-lined Lafayette Square, The Barnett offers an unforgettable setting for couples seeking a true New Orleans celebration. Bonus? The iconic streetcar glides right past the front doors, making a grand wedding party arrival not just possible, but memorable.
Facilities and Capacity
The Barnett features a wide range of event spaces to suit weddings of all sizes and styles. Exchange vows or host cocktail hour on the Rooftop Terrace, a lush outdoor setting with pergolas, skyline views, and a sparkling pool. For grand receptions, Barnett Hall provides 4,000 square feet of versatile space and can be tailored to your needs—whether an elegant seated dinner or lively dance party. For couples looking for something more eclectic, Good Measure brings New Orleans’ signature musical energy to the celebration. More intimate spaces like the Green Room and the Barnett Dining Room—with an adjacent outdoor patio—are ideal for rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, or smaller ceremonies.
