The ac wasn't working and instead of calling someone to fix it they show up a hour and a half later with box fans. The owner said she had a ac guy out that morning therfore she knew it wasn't working. Over half the party left due to the heat and sweating. When the owner arrived she had attitude like it was our fault. The other owner hung up on me and would return my calls. Very unprofessional

If you want a classy wedding without all the hassles, I highly recommend The Gatehouse. The staff were very accommodating, and made what could have been a very stressful time, extremely easy. You can personalize as much as you like, or if you prefer to just let them do all the work, that's an option too. It included the venue, food, DJ, cake, even your guestbook. Basically, all you have to do is get your dress, minister, photographers, and flowers separately, and they even have recommendations for that! I HIGHLY recommend them!!

My friend Yolanda T Jones Williams and Marlon Williams did not have to worry.. Christie handled everything on the day of the wedding and throughout the entire experience! We were very pleased to the point that, I am contemplating having a destination wedding at the Gatehouse! I highly recommend the Gatehouse!"

I wouldn't recommend having an event at this place especially a wedding reception. The owner is…read morevery, very rude. My brother had his wedding reception there and everyone was treated like they were in kindergarten. One of my cousins called to get a price for my sisters wedding and the owner told her "well you need a hall and I have one".. Needless to say, my sister's wedding reception is booked at a bigger, nicer place. 3 Steps is an after school daycare. I didn't want to give them one star but I had to give at least one to leave a review.

The venue itself is very dark and the bar area gets very crowded easily. The wait staff did an excellent job serving and keeping attendees served despite the crowding. When the food line was ready, the hot foods were already lukewarm. The other foods were just okay. There was nothing special about any of the foods served. I expected the food served to be absolutely delicious for the pricing. Attended a similar sized wedding in NOLA in January with exceptional food, venue, and amenities.
