An Amazing place to get Married!!!. If you are looking for a beautiful, fun and memorable place to get maried in New Orleans, you must go to Elms Mansion. The mansion and the backyard are amazing & beautiful, and my guests can't stop complimening us on the quality of food and service that we received on our wedding night. The food was absolutely delicious & Faith, the owner, is extremely professional and experienced in running weddings so you will not have to worry about anything on your wedding day. I wish I could go back & get married again!

Historic home with lush 19th-century charm overflowing from every corner.. Overview
The Van Benthuysen-Elms Mansion--or simply "The Elms Mansion"--is like a Mardi Gras queen, so bedecked and done up in opulent frou frou, yet somehow still so tastefully delightful, that it could only exist in New Orleans. The rooms are dressed to the nines in period furniture and accents. The home's crowning glory is a sweeping grand staircase that flows into the entry hall, a perfect entrance for debutantes, brides or other VIPs. The upstairs, which comfortably seats 100 guests, houses dressing rooms, while downstairs is made up of banquet areas, a library-turned-ballroom bearing the original '50s flocked bar installed by the Elms family, and two cozy drawing rooms.

The E xperience
Elms Mansion is a favorite for weddings, and will do the whole shebang in-house, from clergy to catering. In favorable weather, the garden, complete with picturesque white gazebo, can be used as well as the indoors. Corporate parties and Mardi Gras festivities are also welcomed.
