Wedding weekend

A house for the wedding party, or for the people who came for it.

Weddings in New Orleans bring a crowd that has to sleep somewhere close to each other. The getting-ready house, the groomsmen house, the house for the cousins: each Marais home is a private house for six to ten with its own kitchen, living room and, in most cases, a heated pool.

Every home is listed below. For a group over ten in one place, the band further down points to The Syd and CastleDay, which we also own and run. Ask us and we will match the headcount to the right property.

Eleven or more

Everyone in one place.

The Syd holds 11 to 25 across six villas around one pool. CastleDay holds up to 30 and is built for weddings. We own and run both; each books on its own site.

From wedding weekends and groups

Five-star reviews from the booking system, quoted as written.

“This was the perfect spot for a wedding weekend with college friends. Everyone was comfortable and we had so many amazing options nearby! And so affordable for our group!”

“I cannot say enough great things about the Syd and their team. We rented the entire property for our wedding for our friends to stay, and it exceeded our expectations! The property is beautiful, has great amenities, and the hosts thought of just about everything you could need. The team also got us cookies and a cake to celebrate our wedding which went above and beyond. I cant recommend the Syd enough! We hope to be back next year to celebrate! Thank you again!”

“Perfect location for a group of 9. Super clean and well maintained. The pool was exactly what we needed after a long day walking around the city. Would stay here again!”
