Irish Cultural Museum — Attraction in New Orleans

PERFECT WEDDING EXPERIENCE!! My now husband and I decided we wanted to get married in New Orleans (we live in the Chicago area) after we visited the first time, we fell in love with the romance and history of the city. After a lot of researching, google searching, help from the Visitor and Convention Bureau, we found the Irish Cultural Museum. We booked site unseen after many email conversations with Matthew, he made us feel so at ease, was so responsive to our many questions and that was important to us booking a venue from the Chicago area. We definitely did not go wrong! Our wedding was an absolute dream and we can not thank Matthew and his entire family for making that happen! From day one, they were so helpful with everything. It is stressful planning a wedding, let alone from 1,000 miles away but I never worried about anything. The venue is absolutely beautiful!! You honestly don't need many decorations or flowers, it is stunning just how it is. We held our ceremony here and then while we did the traditional second line, our wedding planner, Matthew and his family switched from the ceremony set up to the reception. I loved that their packages are so inclusive because it makes the planning process such a breeze. There was more than enough room for our approximately 40 guests to eat dinner, dance and just enjoy the entire experience. The food was absolutely delicious too! All of our guests kept raving about the chicken salad and the beef/ potatoes. My husband loved the jambalaya.

You can not go wrong trusting Matthew and his family to make your day beautiful! I am so very happy that we found them and entrusted them, you know they honestly care that you and your guests have a great time and enjoy everything about your experience. We could not of asked for a better experience and a more beautiful wedding day, and the Irish Cultural Museum was such a big part in that, we can't wait to visit next year for our anniversary. We will definitely be stopping in for a drink and to say...

Dia dhuit and Happy All Saints Day! In looking for my best friend, I found this Irish Cultural Museum and them hiding out in the St. Pat's Irish Coffeehouse in the back. This place is a whole new world on a whole nother level. Yes, I've crossed the threshold of many lands, near and far, but I've never tasted such kindness and sweetness as You. I'm the lucky one who keeps finding a, friend like you/me, in every step of the way, like an extraordinary star at the end of a rainbow. I heard your beautiful songs that warmed my heart like a selkie singing who yearned for my return. I too longed for you. In search of your honey wine and meade, you quenched my thirst with your quiet but powerful, Erin Go Bragh, but drunk you in so deeply you became deliciously arousing within me. Why did you so tenderly whisky me away into your euphoric embrace like I've fallin into a Newfoundland musiq Lullaby? Oh, Remember Me, The MorrigAn, and don't you dare close your eyes, you said, there is an important immigration to the, Green Big City, to start anew. In gratitude, I ventured off to the Cities of the Dead, Masonic Temple Cemeteries, and the St. Patrick Cemetery with the will-o'-the-wisps to welcome in the rebirth of life with A chuisle mo chroi.

Special shout out to another handsome pit bull that I met on the way here. We gravitated to each other like a claddagh bond as she let me continually pet her while she hugged up to me closer. Maybe she could read my palms and read the love and messages we were sharing with each other. Thank you Soul Sista! Union...
