We truly cannot say enough great things about The Villa. From start to finish, our experience was nothing short of exceptional.
Having the planning support, day-of wedding coordinator, bartender, and catering all included made the entire process so much less stressful. The coordination and communication were seamless, and on wedding day we were able to actually relax and be present, knowing everything was handled.
The service was absolutely top tier… professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. And the food… phenomenal doesn’t even begin to cover it. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the catering was.
Every detail was thoughtfully executed, the timeline ran smoothly, and the entire team went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. If you’re looking for a venue that delivers not only a beautiful space but also peace of mind, exceptional service, and an unforgettable experience, The Villa is it.
Highly, highly recommend to any couple planning their wedding. -

Classy, Dreamy Wedding in a peaceful rolling hill
If you're looking for a wedding venue that feels like a dream come true, The Villa is absolutely the place to be! Nestled in a peaceful, picturesque location with rolling hills all around, it offers an incredibly serene and elegant backdrop for your big day. The venue itself is a perfect blend of sophistication and charm—classy enough for a refined celebration, yet cozy enough to make everyone feel at home.
From the moment we started planning, Maria, The Villa manager & our wedding coordinator, took care of everything. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she made sure every part of the day went off without a hitch. She took our vision and turned it into reality, seamlessly managing all the logistics so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Maria’s calm, professional demeanor kept everything running smoothly, even when there were a few last-minute changes. It’s clear she’s passionate about making each couple’s day as perfect as possible.
The grounds at The Villa are absolutely stunning. The outdoor ceremony space, with its wide open views of the rolling hills, is simply breathtaking—perfect for those dream wedding photos. The reception hall is elegant with floor-to-ceiling white bricks & windows that let you enjoy the natural beauty around you while dancing the night away. It’s the kind of place that gives you that “fairytale” feeling.
Overall, if you want a wedding that’s not only beautiful but also stress-free, I can’t recommend The Villa enough—especially with Maria as your coordinator. She makes the entire experience feel effortless and truly special. It’s a place that gives you peace of mind on your big day while creating memories that will last forever. -

Everything from the jump was amazing with this venue. They made everything so easy & we couldn’t have picked a better venue. Maria, our day of coordinator, was the sweetest and did everything in her power to make sure our day went as smooth as possible. If I could rate this venue & its staff 10000 stars I would! -

Dear The Villa,
Thank you for your love and support on our special day. My husband Chase and I were overjoyed with the amount of attention to detail towards the preparation process prior to and during the wedding. Our loved ones mentioned how much they were cared for as well. Maria, was our day of coordinator along with her bridal attendant Katie.
They both helped the image of our wedding come to life. There was exceptional attention to detail and patience as some of the decisions we made were on the wedding day. Our loved ones they felt very cared for as well.
The food was outstanding which everyone enjoyed. I am very thankful for the food tasting we had earlier in the year. All our vendors worked very well coordinating our special day with The Villa.
I am brought to tears writing this review. The Villa will always have a special place in our hearts. We felt so much love during the wedding which was one of the best days our lives.
Love,
The Dembruns -

11/02/2024 wedding
Everyone at the villa was so helpful. Maria, our coordinator, and Katie, the day of bridal assistant, were my go to girls and were so awesome. Maria was so flexible and any question at any time of day throughout the months before was answered quickly and thoroughly. The only issue we had was with one bartender provided by the venue but the situation was quickly rectified after speaking with Katie and Maria… again they are the best! The food was outstanding and all I heard for the whole night was how it was the best wedding food my guests had ever had! I felt very taken care of and, as much as you can on your wedding day, stress free :) This duo made me feel like all I had to be anxious about was the getting married and not all the moving parts around me. I could not recommend this venue more. Thank you to the Villa team. Yall are the best! -

Don’t Consider, JUST DO IT!
Probably the best decision throughout all the ones during my wedding planning. Jessie and Terri are both so attentive, you never go without, and they are prepared for rain, shine, snow, you name it. Communication was top notch, the wedding day itself was smooth. And everything was perfect thanks to the crew. PLEASE don’t even think about it, just book this place, I promise you won’t regret it. -

Chelsea Sent on 05/18/2021Gorgeous Venue!
Highly recommend! Making decisions for our wedding this past April was not something I took lightly, especially our Venue. After seeing The Villa online and then in-person, I fell in love with it! It was everything we were looking for. Surrounding the venue are gorgeous trees and hills, the inside is beautiful and open. I especially LOVED the Bridal / Grooms suites, both were absolutely stunning!!
Also, a huge thanks to Olivia for answering my millions of questions & to Terri for all of her assistance! She helped tremendously on very last minute accommodations/ changes. Couldn’t be more thankful!
NOTE: The one thing I will add for brides considering this Venue is the location. Keep in mind that Carriere is a very small town. We stayed in NOLA the weekend of the wedding & many of our guests stayed between Slidell & Picayune. We had no issues with the location since we were prepared for it. -

Amazing Venue in our little town!
If you're deciding on which venue in Pearl River County to choose from, make it the Villa! We can not say enough great things about this venue. The decor and grounds of the venue are pristinely kept up. The management couldn't be more helpful and accommodating. 10/10 would recommend for any kind of wedding, shower, or birthday you could think of! -

The Villa is a hidden gem! The beautiful sits on the most amazing rolling hills. It looks like something straight from Tuscany. The inside is just as breathtaking & the service is 2nd to none! Take a tour, you won't regret it! -

A Kimble Sent on 05/17/2021Great Wedding Experience
BEAUTIFUL VENUE! The manager was more than helpful. After seeing several venues before and after my wedding, I have no regrets about the choice I made. It was the perfect blend of stunning and simple. When choosing a venue, I wanted a place that I liked the inside as much as the outside in the event that it rained and I couldn’t have my wedding outside. I enjoyed the freedom we had in decorating and setting up. They had an option to pay $500 to use their table settings, but we chose to do our own because I wanted fresh flowers. I would’ve saved money had I chosen that option and the decor would’ve gone perfectly with the natural greenery,white,wood look that I wanted. You can get married down in the valley with the arch they already have set up, but I wanted the ceremony to be between the beautiful cedar trees. You don’t have to worry about road traffic, parking, or unnecessary scenery that will ruin pictures. So many things fell through as our wedding was at the start of COVID, but the venue made everything enjoyable. 10/10 would recommend! -

Jessica Sent on 10/23/2025We LOVED our time here!
From the moment we toured the venue, we fell in love with it!
It had all of our must have items! Outdoor areas for the ceremony, inside reception space, great kitchen area, Bride AND Groom suites, tables and lines provided, plenty of parking, and the list just goes on!
We genuinely could not have asked for a better place to have our special day. I 100% recommend and continue to recommend the Villa forever!
Your guests may think they are in the wrong place because of how far out the venue is, however that just mean you’re secluded enough to not have to listen to those annoying city sounds or cars driving past. Maybe a cow or two from the neighbors moo-ing, but who doesn’t love a good interrupting cow moment every once in a while?
Overall we loved our time here and continue to get compliments on just how beautiful our wedding was.
