Farmhouse Wedding & Event Venue for Timeless Rustic Charm

“Rustic weddings aren’t a trend—they’re a mood.”
And if there’s one venue that embodies that mood effortlessly, it’s The Four Columns in Harvey, just minutes from downtown New Orleans. Tucked away from the bustle of the city, this Farmhouse wedding & event venue is where southern elegance meets authentic charm—and it’s changing the game for couples looking for something more than the typical ballroom setting.

Why Rustic Just Works

There’s something deeply comforting about a rustic setting. It’s not flashy. It’s not stiff. It’s real.
That’s why rustic wedding venues have remained a top choice for couples who want a wedding that feels warm, intimate, and unforgettable. The Four Columns takes that to heart—offering not just a venue, but an experience soaked in local flavor, family tradition, and a legacy of hospitality that spans over 45 years.

From the moment you step into one of our ballrooms, you’ll feel it:
Wood beams. Elegant lighting. A soft Cajun breeze if you’re outside on the patio. That’s the vibe. And it’s the perfect canvas for your dream day.

Let’s Talk Ballrooms—Because They’re a Big Deal

The Four Columns gives you two stunning indoor spaces to choose from:

• The Charlet Room – Designed for grand affairs. This space holds up to 600 guests standing, with a 1200-square-foot dance floor that keeps the party going all night.
• The Toscano Room – Ideal for smaller, cozier weddings with a maximum of 200 guests. It comes with a more intimate 360-square-foot dance floor and its own unique charm.

Oh—and both rooms come with access to a private mezzanine. This area doubles as a photo-ready perch for wedding party portraits and a VIP lounge to sneak a breather, sip champagne, and reset your lipstick before the next round of toasts.

Food That Speaks Southern—Fluent in Flavor

This isn’t your standard wedding menu.

• The Four Columns brings decades of Cajun-Italian culinary tradition to your plate. Think:
• Shrimp Étouffée served next to golden crawfish pies.
• Carved prime rib beside garlic mashed potatoes.
• Crabmeat-stuffed mushrooms that disappear faster than the cake.

Whether you opt for buffet-style catering or plated service, your guests are going to rave about the food long after the bouquet toss. Want something more laid-back? They’ll bring the feast to you with their off-site catering services too.

Personal Touches That Make a Difference

No one wants a cookie-cutter wedding. That’s why The Four Columns goes beyond offering space and food—they offer hands-on planning support every step of the way.

Here’s what sets them apart:

• Dedicated wedding planners who work directly with you
• Private bridal and groom rooms for outfit changes and breathers
• In-house decor customization for lighting, linens, and layout
• Exclusive access to their Xpress YourSelfie Booth (yes, really)
• Flexible pick-up catering for DIY brides and grooms

Every detail is fine-tuned to reflect your style—so whether you’re going full rustic chic with mason jars and burlap, or leaning into modern farmhouse elegance with moody tones and gold accents, it works here.

It’s Not Just a Wedding—It’s a Southern Experience

Let’s be honest: Anyone can rent out a room and call it a venue.
But The Four Columns delivers something far deeper—a full New Orleans experience, crafted with intention.

Family-run since 1977, they’ve seen thousands of weddings, but they treat every single one like it’s their first. It’s not just about logistics. It’s about legacy. And that legacy lives in their food, their service, and the way they make you feel at home from your first walkthrough to your last dance.
