Family Reunion

Hi! I’m looking for recommendations. We are hosting our family reunion in New Orleans next year in June and we are in need of an event hall that does it all(caters/decorate), since we are not from New Orleans.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hosting a family reunion in New Orleans can be a fantastic experience, especially if you choose an event hall that handles catering, decorations, and setup. Since you’re not local, looking for a venue that provides full-service packages will make the planning much easier.

Here are some top recommendations for family-friendly event halls in New Orleans:

  • The Cannery: A modern, stylish event space that can accommodate large groups. They offer catering options, and you can often coordinate decor with their preferred vendors.
  • The Country Club: Located in Mid-City, it offers both indoor and outdoor spaces with full-service event planning, including catering and decoration packages suitable for large family gatherings.
  • The Sugar Mill: Situated in the historic French Quarter, this venue has a unique charm with fully customizable catering and decoration options.
  • Generations Hall: A spacious, contemporary venue that provides a complete package, including tables, chairs, lighting, and coordination with caterers.
  • City Park Event Spaces: Various venues within City Park can accommodate family reunions with the convenience of on-site catering and decorator options. These include the Pavilion of the Two Sisters and Pavilion of the Oaks.

Additional tips to ensure a smooth family reunion:

  • Book as early as possible, especially for June, which is a popular time in New Orleans.
  • Ask the venue if they have preferred vendors for decor, photography, and entertainment—this will reduce the stress of coordinating from afar.
  • Consider venues that offer both indoor and outdoor space so you have flexibility in case of weather.
  • Confirm whether they provide tableware, linens, and setup/cleanup services, so you know exactly what is included in your package.

By choosing a venue that manages most of the logistics, your family can focus on enjoying the reunion while the staff handles catering, decor, and setup. This approach is especially helpful when planning from out of town.
