Weddings and Events

Make your own history in a timeless New Orleans gem

Imagine starting your life together surrounded by romance, history, and culture — where movie stars, musicians, political figures (and maybe even a kindly ghost) have walked the halls since 1879. 

Where the original furnishings mingle with modern comforts in an atmosphere of elegance and privacy. 

And where, just beyond our tranquil courtyards, the legendary fun of the French Quarter spills over into the rockin’ music scene of Frenchmen Street. 

With its unbeatable location and gorgeous photo ops at every turn, the Lanaux Mansion isn’t just a venue for your New Orleans wedding. It’s the opening scene for the most timeless love story of all — Yours.
