Everything about our experience with The Moore was excellent. Melanie answered all our questions and was very helpful in guiding us through the whole planning and decision-making process. Even with last minute weather-related decisions, we knew we were in good hands with Melanie and her team. The day-of service was out of this world. Gina, our wedding attendant, was a dream. She seamlessly guided us through our wedding day timeline, taking excellent care of us throughout the whole night. Everything was absolutely beautiful!

I wish I can give them 100 stars. I worked with Melanie throughout the whole planning period and she was FABULOUS. The best thing, I did not have to really do anything... planning was so easy, so stress free. 2 days before our wedding, I dropped off a few personal items that I wanted to display, and Melanie took care of the rest. When we walked into our reception, I was blown away. It was decorated so beautiful, everything was perfect! Our bridal attendants always had our drinks full, and made sure we had everything we needed all night. My guests are still raving about the gumbo and roast.

It was a destination wedding which is stressful in itself but she was so responsive and accommodating that it calmed my nerves many times during the planning process. I tried my hardest Not to be a bridezilla but I did have specifics and a zillion emails shooting her way. The venue space itself was gorgeous and didnât need much decorating at all. Their wedding packages included a lot such as table cloths, flowers on tables, candles, up lighting, DJ etc. We were fortunate that outside space was created so we had our wedding outdoors which was magical. Though I didnât eat at the wedding due to excitement and partying, I had positive feedback from my guests regarding the food.

The food was delicious (this was something else our guests gave us plenty of compliments on). It was also so nice to be able to eat in the bridal suite with only my husband before the reception. The courtyard is a beautiful spot to take pictures especially after the sun went down; those were definitely some of our favorite photos from the night. The parking lots has plenty of safe parking for guests. The staff was beyond attentive the entire night; we didn't even have to ask for anything. Melanie was SO helpful throughout the entire process and always responded in a timely manner. She was super sweet and a rockstar at her job. With the drinks flowing and the provided DJ playing music saying that everyone had a blast at the reception was an understatement. If your guests say it was also the best night of their life, The Moore is doing everything right. I couldn't think of any negative things to say about this venue and their staff even down to the smallest detail.

Amongst all the chaos and uncertainty involved with trying to plan a wedding during the COVID-19 crisis, Amanda and her team made sure that our wedding night was as special as it could possibly be. We originally planned to have our small wedding ceremony followed by a mini-reception at a parentâs house. However, in a matter of a couple of weeks, Amanda put together a beautiful wedding reception that was more than we could have ever asked.The facility itself is incredible. We had previously been to a reception at the âRose Gardenâ as the building was formerly known, and this new venue was completely unrecognizable. Everything is brand new and decorated with a very classy, modern look that my wife absolutely loved. Everyone was raving about how elegant it looked - especially the new flooring and the beautiful brick fireplace in the center of the room. The food was all taken care of by Amanda as well through 12 Seasons Catering which is in house, and we were blown away. We could have stayed in the bridal suite and just ate food all night. The staff was amazing, constantly checking in to make sure they were doing everything possible to make our night the best experience possible.After seeing what they can do with only a couple of weeks of planning, we would absolutely recommend using The Moore for any wedding plans!

Cheryl Tan(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-12-2019 My husband and I originally booked our reception when this venue was still the rose garden. Fran and Amie Tusa helped us plan our entire wedding from catering to wedding schedule entirely though emails and phone calls since we live in California. They were very responsive, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I had my heart set on their family running our reception since we really bonded with them. Ownership of the venue changed approximately 3-4 weeks before our wedding so we were pretty much scrambling to make sure everything was going to go according to our contract. Amanda the new coordinator was very helpful in going through our wedding reception plans, food, table settings, etc. she was easy to contact and communicate with. They also updated the venue with a newer more modern feel to it which was nice. Our wedding reception was beautiful and food was great. It just felt very unorganized and rushed. The DJ played the wrong garter song, we asked to cut our first dance song at 3 minutes but it was even cut shorter which was a little awkward. There were no knifes to cut the cake when it was time and half of the guests didnât even know we were cutting our cake. Our guests were a little confused as far as seating and getting food goes and I had to prompt the staff that my parents werenât being served right away when guests already had food before them. Overall it just felt unorganized. I understand they were taking over weddings planned in a different way by the previous owners so I could see how that is stressful, but it just wasnât what we expected.Nevertheless, the bar flowed throughout the night and people still had a great time. We probably were the only ones who noticed the problems which is fine. I think over time this venue will improve. Reviewed on 20-12-2019

They were so willing to work with me through that time, and Iâm so overjoyed to have gotten to know the Tusa Family! The food was great, the event space was great! My husband and I loved the little private nook where we got to step away for a few minutes to take some bites of food and sips of our drinks while the party was happening!

Kimberly Borders(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-08-2019 From the moment we walked in to the Rose Garden to the minute we left after our wedding, we felt like we were a part of their family. Fran and Amie were so wonderful throughout the planning process. You can tell that they love what they do. Amie sent us monthly updates to keep us on track with deadlines, making sure we had our other vendors and ancillaries ready in time. She was always available for whatever we needed, even the smallest questions. I even made a last minute request (literally the day of) and they were able to accommodate it. The venue is so beautiful, I didn't even need to bring in many of my own decorations, just a few for the tables. We both loved the light play on the walls and tables. The food was amazing, perfectly New Orleans. Our guests are still talking about how great it was. Plus it was so affordable for what was included (pretty much everything!). We even got our own attendant who was so attentive and we loved her. We can't thank you guys enough for making our day so easy, seamless, and beautiful! Reviewed on 27-08-2019

Their staff, the venue, and their attention to detail (even anticipating your EVERY need) is TREMENDOUS! I can't say enough great things about The Rose Garden. If you want everything to go smoothly, to be first class, and to have a venue that your guests talk about for a long, long time then The Rose Garden is the place to book. This family and the staff bend over backwards to help with anything they can from start to finish. It's is seamless on your end and takes SO much stress off of the person organizing the event for the family. Ten PLUS stars for The Rose Garden! Reviewed on 28-07-2019

We planned our wedding entirely through email (didnât see the venue in person until two days before the wedding) and the process couldnât have been easier. Amie answered all of my questions quickly and compassionately and kept me up to date on the to-dos along the way. I canât imagine planning a wedding 2000 miles away without the Rose Garden team! My guests were blown away by the hospitality, the decor, and most emphatically the FOOD!! If you want a true NOLA wedding without any of the headache or worry, this is your place. You wonât find anywhere better. And the price?! Iâm still in disbelief. It was everything I dreamt of and more. Reviewed on 25-06-2019
Rhiannon Vath(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-01-2019 The Rose Garden was by far the best venue from the moment we went and looked at it until after our honeymoon. During the entire process they were very patient with us with answering any questions that we had. If I were to get in my âcrazy bride panic modeâ in the middle of the night and email Fran or Aimee, they replied back so fast. Every question was always answered clearly, there was always a solution to anything that I wanted corrected (for an example: my sister in law has food allergies. So we wanted to change one of the dishes to work around her allergy) The Rose Garden also sends you letters every few months to help you understand clearly what you should be doing the next few months to get prepared for your wedding. When it comes time for your wedding they get in touch with the vendors for you. It is one less thing for you to worry about. On your wedding day your parents will have an attendant and so will you. Our parents said that they were so well taken care of. I can say the same for us. They made sure we stopped and ate. Everytime we put our cups down for even a second they filled them. The dj spoke to us a few weeks prior to go over the music and a week before. The music was perfect. Everything went smoothly just like the way it should have. They really understand and know what they are doing. All of our guests are still messaging us telling us how beautiful the wedding was, and how much fun they had, and how great the food was. I honestly couldnât have asked for a better wedding. Itâs something Iâll never forget. I wouldnât change anything. It was absolutely perfect. Reviewed on 28-01-2019
Melissa Waltrip(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-12-2018 When I say that Rose Garden is amazing, itâs definately an understatement. Fran and her family are fantastic! Not only did they make sure that we were on schedule with things going on with them, they also periodically checked in with us to make sure we had everything else ready, our bouquets, the cake, making sure we order the dress in time and other small things. It was basically having a wedding planner without actually paying for one. Rose Garden definitely takes care of their clients and makes sure that they have the best experience possible. Fran made sure that I always had a drink in my hand, that I never went hungry, and made sure that everything went smoothly. And letâs not forget the amazing food!!! You can definitely cannot go wrong when choosing this place. Iâll be praising Rose Garden for years to come for creating such a great and unforgettable experience for me and my husband.

Amanda Reuther(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-01-2016 My wedding was a success at The Rose Garden, but I am only giving it 3 stars becuase there were a few things with the venue i wasn't happy with. We paid for a 100 guest wedding becuase i had invited about 75 guest and i think about 50 people showed up being said that, they would not even allow the parents of myself and husband bring a plate of food home. They said it was against some code to have guest leave with food, but they made my husband and I a plate to go so that was just a little confusing. Also, my husband and i arent very big drinkers and all we wanted was to toast one shot of liquar to celebrate and it was a big ordeal. They had to get the owner and we waited and waited, she came and spoke with us and told us that wasnt allowed and then i guess she changed her mind becuase we were brought our shots some time later.Overall my experience was just okay.

I was a mess but Fran helped ease everything. She opened the bar to our guests and opened the photobooth to my bridesmaids and I. She helped arrange an Uber to help get his mother to the venue.

From the moment Aaron and I walked in and met with Fran, we knew we had found an amazing family, let alone all-inclusive venue! It was exactly what we were looking for, and we ended up booking with them after looking at >10 venues to host our 200+ person wedding. Fran was so kind, patient, and genuine when we viewed the Rose Garden with her, and she let us know that this is a family run business and we would become part of the family! I cannot tell you how accurate that was! We worked with Fran and Amie through email, solidifying our plans and arrangements with them in February. They werenât pushy or over the top, but so personable and approachable and you can tell that they genuinely care about their clients! Amie was amazing to work with as well. We had multiple questions (as one can imagine) and Amie and I would go back and forth with email or phone calls as many times as I needed to, or asked her to, without one time feeling that I was bothering her. There were reminder emails sent about timelines for planning, suggestions, help with vendor selection, and just about anything anyone would need to help the wedding planning journey go smoothly! I never feel that we missed a beat, and I felt that I had a personal wedding planner in both Fran and Amie - what a delight!! The rehearsal was very organized and Fran was there greeting and assisting to ensure that our big day would go off without a hitch. They were more than agreeable to all of my suggestions for lighting, arrangement of tables and seating, and very helpful with managing my divorced parentsâ seating arrangements with compassion. The night of the wedding was so amazing that I canât say enough. We were treated like royalty and as if it was their own daughter/son/brother/sister getting married. There wasnât anything that went wrong, or caused us stress, and our attendant was amazing! We were catered to, along with our guests and everyone raved about the food, atmosphere, staff, and Fran!! Everyone really helped to create a magical moment for us from the very beginning. We would love to celebrate again with them - maybe anniversary party?!!

We could call or email them and they would always respond in a timely manner. They were kind, caring and patient even when we had a million questions.

I felt like she really would take care of us and have or best interest in mind throughout the whole process. I also found it to be affordable in comparison to similar venues. Throughout the planning process I enjoyed collaborating with Amie on everything. Her reminder emails were very helpful and kept me on track. She was always available to answer my questions by phone or email and she was quick to respond even when I wasnât. Both Amie and Fran gave good advice based on their experience of helping many brides. They told me straight up when something wasnât a good idea, but were still willing to accommodate my every request if it was possible. I initially worried about decor, but realized that there really wasn't much I needed to add. With the customizable uplighting the room looked great and went well with my colors. My decorating needs ended up being very minimal.The food was amazing! The pre-event dinner put my mind at ease and let me know in advance that my guest would love the food. And they did! There was something for everyone and I especially appreciated the effort to accommodate my dad who has a restricted diet. The only issue occurred when some people not familiar with the New Orleans style reception were unaware that they had to get up and help themselves. The night went by very quickly and we were grateful to have the private dining area for my husband and I to slow down and enjoy the meal together. Everything happened just about as planned and I never felt like we were being rushed out at the end of the night. If there were any problems behind the scenes we sure didnât know about it. And when things did come up, like forgetting both garters, Fran saved the day with an extra one she had on hand. Overall it turned out to be a gorgeous wedding. Weeks afterward I am still getting comments from my guest on what a beautiful wedding it was or how much fun they had. I canât thank the staff at the Rose Garden enough for the personalized service in helping me put it all together.

Joslin Jewett(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-02-2017 I wanted to write a review on my experience with The Rose Garden which can seem odd because my wedding isn't until February. Since the day I first met Fran she has every bit of amazing and sweet. Her and Amie ALWAYS are there for any question and concerns I have. They send out reminders and additional information when needed. If I had to refer a couple to a Venue it would definitely be here. I really look forward to my wedding, I know that they are going to make it as perfect and I want it... Joslin Reviewed on 02-12-2016

Jessica Nash(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 22-10-2016 The owners of the Rose Garden are amazing. Since the first day I went in to look at the venue, they have been hands on and there to answer every question. They sent monthly reminders of items I needed to get done for the wedding, which I loved! Aimee was especially helpful and full of knowledge and experience. This family and venue made my wedding perfect. I had no stress or freak outs because they handled everything so professionally and made the experience so perfect. My guests left full from the delicious food served continuously throughout the night and the bartenders were fun and fast to get the guests their drinks. Everyone left happy, especially myself and the groom. The photobooth pictures were very funny and I loved reading the comments left in the booklet we got to take home. Also, they gave us a dvd of the pictures which was fun to watch the next day. They were very easy to work with if you are a bride on a budget.The Rose Garden staff and owners were far better than any other place I looked at in the New Orleans area. ( I looked at over 6) If I could go back and do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing! Reviewed on 07-11-2016

DaNiaga Darensburg(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-10-2016 I absolutely loved my wedding!! This venue exceeded my expectations!!! It wasn't about the money to them they were truly interested in making my day a night I wouldn't forget. It's ran by a loving family that treats you like family. From the time I put down my deposit until days after the wedding they were attentive. Always making sure we were ok down to making sure we took care of things like our marriage license. The day of we had an attendant that never left of side during the reception. It blew me away after I said my vows & walked out in the foyer to see the owner sitting there holding my grandson. She walked him out & sat with him so that his noises calling for me wouldn't interrupt the ceremony. That warmed my heart. I never been to a venue that takes that much pride into making sure your day is perfect!!! The food was awesome!!! I have guest still telling me how great it was. Every detail was taking care of for me. I dropped all my decor off & they did an excellent job in creating beautiful & elegant tables.

Karen Binnings(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-09-2016 Our wedding was there September 17, 2016. We had toured several venues before we met with this one, but from the beginning I knew they were THE ONE! They were above and beyond helpful from the beginning of wedding plans, and Fran and Amie assisted me with things that I didn't even realize I needed. On the wedding night, the attendant who helped me was AMAZING. Words cannot describe how awesome she was to me, and all of my guests even noticed her. I have to admit that I was a mess with staying on schedule and in top of \"the little things,\" but she put me at ease a made sure I had everything I needed. I wish I had her with me the entire day! LOL. Since the wedding, I've had multiple comments from my guests about how the food was so delicious and the amount was neverending. They even joked about gaining 10 pounds just from the amount of food that was provided at the wedding. Ha! I would definitely recommend The Rose Garden to another Bridesmaid in the future, and would keep them in mind the next time I have to throw a big party. Thank YOU! â€- Karen & Patrick Binnings Reviewed on 05-10-2016

Fredrick Powell(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-05-2016 My wedding was May 14, 2016 I truly cannot express the words to describe how wonderful The Rose Garden is, from the owner to the chef, to the servers and to the dj. This place is awesome! I loved and enjoyed every bit of my reception from beginning to end. It was the best experience ever. My guest and our parents were so pleased with everything they can't stop talking about it. How attentive the staff was, they had so much food and the signature drink was right on. They had three weddings in my family within the same year and just a few months apart and I hate to brag but because of The Rose Garden my family said my wedding venue topped everyone else. Fran and Amy are just the best hostess ever. They made my day very special. My husband and I felt like family and that was important to me. They didn't treat us like it was just business. They catered to my and my husband every need. Also anything my guest needed they were happy to accommodate them. In the beginning my husband and I looked at several venues I mean just about all of them surrounding the New Orleans area including the westbank and I must say out of all of them The Rose Garden Fran and Amy were the only owners that greeted me and my husband with a hug. They made us feel like family, like we were the only bride and groom in the world. They were the only one that offered little unique touches that I'm not going to mention, I don't want to give it away. My husband said he felt exclusive. All other venues basically offered the same thing but this venue give you that something extra. I truly believe hands done this venue should receive an award, Shoot my family said they appreciated them so much we all wanted to give them an award or gift ourselves. In short BEST VENUE EVER!!!!!!!! Reviewed on 03-06-2016

Our wedding was Friday, April 15, 2016, and it was better than I could have ever imagined. It was truly my dream wedding. Everything was perfect! The Rose Garden was the third venue we visited and within 10 minutes, we knew we wanted our wedding there. Mrs. Fran & Amie are incredible. Any time I had a question or concern, I just shot an email over and within a few hours (if that) I had a response. The food was delicious. Mr. Vic & Vic, Jr. are amazing chefs. I wish I had half of their talent! Our attendant, Kathy, was amazing. She was on top of her game! I don't think we ever had an empty cup in our hands. Our parents' attendant, Sharlene, was equally as amazing. She took excellent care of our parents! Our DJ, Joey, was awesome. He kept up a great playlist to keep everyone moving! Although we didn't get to visit them, I heard the bartenders were pretty awesome, too. To say the least, I'd highly recommend The Rose Garden for any group function! You'll be well taken care of.
