A quick stroll through the mansion’s immaculately decorated interior is all it takes to understand how thoroughly Southern Oaks embraces the wedding industry’s latest trends. The venue is a fusion of traditional and modern elements, combining the best of both and mixing in the distinctive culture of New Orleans. It’s an amazingly successful formula—a stylish mélange of the delicious food, exceptio

nal service, and unmistakable style unique to the Big Easy. Southern Oaks is set on more than three acres of manicured grounds. It is a charming and opulent estate, and a picturesque setting for photography. Unlike many historic properties, the indoor spaces at Southern Oaks have been renovated specifically for weddings. The charming rooms at the front of the mansion open into a glamorous ballroom, which becomes the focal point of the reception. New Orleans is a city known for its culinary excellence, and Southern Oaks embraces this tradition wholeheartedly. Although the atmosphere is magical and the service impeccable, cuisine is the keystone of their business. Each celebration at Southern Oaks incorporates an all-inclusive, hand-passed menu of over eighty different items. The food is brilliantly presented and constantly served. It’s a tapas-style wedding with seemingly no end to the amount or variety of items catered. Yet, catering is just the beginning of the amenities offered by Southern Oaks. With numerous elements provided as part of their ceremony and reception packages, hosting an event at Southern Oaks is simple and stress-free. The exceptional staff ensures every detail is meticulously planned and perfectly executed. Southern Oaks has won the "Best of The Knot" award for ten consecutive years and has been honored into The Knot's Hall of Fame. We would be delighted to put our award winning team to work for your celebration.

Today, we say goodbye to a cherished member of our Southern Oaks family. Popes, who dedicated over 30 years to making brides’ dreams come true and brightening our days with his warmth and kindness, has passed away. He was also the beloved father of Mr. Bobby, carrying on a legacy of love and dedication at Southern Oaks. His love for working with brides and fellow cast members was unmatched, and his presence will be deeply missed.

Thank you, Popes, for all the wonderful memories and the joy you brought to everyone at Southern Oaks. Rest in peace.
