New Orleans Area Event Budget Guide
Planning a wedding or event near New Orleans? This guide uses more than 17 years of event records from Fleur de Lis Event Center in Mandeville, on the Northshore, to show what couples and families actually spend.
The Fleur de Lis Event Center's New Orleans Area Event Budget Guide provides real event costs for the Northshore, Orleans, and Jefferson Parish. This guide helps couples and families budget by compiling data from over 17 years of events hosted at Fleur de Lis Event Center since 2009. Crucially, every number in the guide is derived from Fleur de Lis Event Center's own signed contracts, offering specific insights rather than general New Orleans-area averages.
Every number comes from our own signed contracts at one venue. It’s not a New Orleans-area average, and we say so on every page.
