Your New Orleans wedding weekend, all on one block.
Take all three CastleDay villas for the weekend and your wedding party, family and closest guests stay on the same block: getting-ready suites, courtyards for the welcome party, and three private pools, with nobody else on site.
The short answer
One block, the whole weekend.
New Orleans is built for a wedding weekend, but hotel room blocks scatter your people across floors and lobbies. A CastleDay buyout keeps up to 90 guests together: three 12-bedroom villas, getting-ready space for the wedding party, oversized kitchens and dining for welcome dinners, and private outdoor space for a first-look, a second-line send-off or a poolside after-party. The welcome party or the day-after pool bash happens right where everyone is staying; larger gatherings just need advance written approval from the team.
Most couples book a three-night weekend nine to fourteen months out. A brass band can be booked for the courtyard, and outside vendors (bartenders, decorators, hair and makeup) all come to the villa, so the celebration lives where everyone is staying. One couple ran their entire wedding weekend on all three villas; the full story, vendors and costs are in the wedding weekend playbook. Another made a single villa the family home base, from the 34-person family dinner to a 150-person farewell brunch; her account is in the one-villa playbook.
