Sitting on historic Esplanade Avenue on the edge of the French Quarter, the Melrose Mansion is the perfect setting for your New Orleans wedding. Our newly renovated luxury hotel is ideal for small intimate weddings in the courtyard area alongside our lush swimming pool or inside the beautifully decorated Victorian mansion. Wedding parties have the option of hosting their ceremony and/or reception in our luxurious poolside courtyard or den area. Our den area inside of the mansion can comfortably accommodate up to 50 chairs for a ceremony. The poolside courtyard can accommodate up to 65 chairs for a ceremony. A maximum of 75 guests can be accommodated for both ceremony and reception, depending on the set-up style. The Melrose Mansion requires a 2-night buyout of all 21 rooms and suites for an on-site event to provide guests with the utmost privacy for their special occasion.
