Alright. I'm ready to let you all in on an awesome secret. This place is one of the hidden gems in…read morethe New Orleans area. Yes, The Jefferson Orleans North is a reception hall. Yes, you can have a Sweet 16 or a wedding here. But there's something else. Something I just discovered myself. On Sunday nights, from 7-10, The Jefferson Orleans North hosts The Pat Barberot Orchestra, which is a real big band. Not only that, but you can actually dance. Like...real dancing. Like the type of dancing that they did in the 40's and 50's where you actually hold someone close and move around the dance floor. I understand that the Jefferson Orleans has been holding these weekly dances since the 70's. My grandmother used to come here in the 80's. Also, and I just have to be honest, most of the people who actually go to dance are in their 70's, 80's and even 90's. And they are the most delightful people in the world and quickly make you realize that you are never too old for a spin around the dance floor. So, why do I like it here? Because when you are on the huge dance floor and listening to a real big band, you are transported to a different time. You're transported to a time when life was a bit simpler and the music was really good. Maybe you are thinking, "Well, that sounds good and all, but I don't know how to dance." Okay, well neither do I. I know the basic box step and a few small swing steps and that's about it. I'm not going to be winning any dancing contests any time soon. But I still have so much fun and all of the people who actually do know how to dance are always encouraging. The dancers at the Jefferson Orleans are so excited when younger people come in and I promised them that I would do my best to bring in new faces. So, that's where you come in. Put on your best dress or suit (yes, it's that type of vibe) and join us on a Sunday night at 6:30. If you want, feel free to shoot me a message and I will let you know when I will be there, so that you will see a familiar face. I guarantee that you will have a good time.

We wanted to do something special and yet fairly intimate for our daughter and approximately 12 family members. I found Event Helpers on Yelp, called Katie and she took care of everything. From the decorations to the sheet cake! The food was prepared on site and it was fabulous! Marinated grilled veggies, Cajun Jumbo Shrimp, Hawaiian Chicken Skewers, Blackened Redfish, a Mediterranean Salad and more. Best of all Katie's a wonderful person who was there herself to take care of anything we needed! I can't wait to celebrate my daughter's Grad School commencement!

Great place for a medium sized wedding…read more Staff was fabulous. Not sure who did the catering, but the food was delicious. The bride and groom looked so happy and the courtyard and side area where the wedding was held were perfect for photos. Plenty of parking. Highlight of the evening was a surprise second line with a six piece jazz band. Loved the trumpet and trombone players. So much high energy. Perfect way to end a beautiful wedding and start a wonderful marriage.

Venue- The venue space was large enough to hold our guests of 150 comfortably. The added drapery and greenery to the chandeliers was such a beautiful touch that complemented our decor. We loved the option that our guests could go outside on the terrance and enjoy the sunset. The bridal suite made for beautiful photos and comfortably could fit a small bridal party. The extra touches of tissues, mints, pins, and other odds and ends that may be needed was such a thoughtful touch. Staff- Our family made several comments of how great the staff was! Everyone was so nice and helpful! Lots of smiling faces and exceptional service! Mrs. Cindy really made sure to listen to every detail and made it happen! From set up to take down she was there and made it 10x better! She checked on us regularly throughout the evening and made sure every thing ran smoothly. Budget- One of the main reasons why we choose The Alexander Room was because they offer a "Special Events" package. Since we were not hosting a wedding, we had the option to customize a package that better fit our budget. We had the option to add on certain items should we have wanted them. Food- There was an array of food options to choose from for our event. Each item we choose was absolutely delicious and Mr. Timphony ( the owner), was the chef. The Gumbo was also delicious! All and all this was a 10/10. Not a single thing to complain about. I absolutely recommend The Alexander Room for any event! They have been such a pleasure to work with! The Alexander Room and Terrance is absolutely Metairie's best kept secret when it comes to Venues!

It's located near Lakeside Mall in Metairie and shares a parking lot with other businesses in the building. Parking was a breeze the morning I was there. When I arrived I was pleased with the attentive service I received from the staff. They had breakfast service set up buffet style and the food was good. Almost as soon as I sat down, I of course spilled my water. I swear, I'm as messy am eater as a 3 year old. As I was looking for napkins an employee noticed what was going on and swooped in to clean up. Lunch service was much the same. It was a health insurance seminar, so they were challenged to find appropriate foods, and did a pretty decent job. Deli sandwich fixings and gumbo. I might have gone with a grilled chicken and veggies option and maybe offered brown rice with the gumbo. Their options were very tasty though. The staff was good about clearing the tables and they were friendly. The room is large and was very clean. There were a few chandeliers and there was an available stage area. The bathrooms were adequate and clean, but there were no paper towels available. All in all it's a nice space. Sort of a blank canvas that, with some decorating, probably dresses up nicely. It was perfect for the daytime event that I attended.

I was confused because that's not my problem...Party City accepted my order and promised to deliver it. About an hour later, I received 2 tangled bouquets and was told that the rest were on the way. Welp...I never received them and could not decorate the party as intended. I called Party City customer service to inquire and they could not get in touch with the local store.
