Castle Micro Weddings
If the Covid pandemic taught us anything, it's that no matter what is going on in the world, true love never takes a break. Below are what Louisiana Castle defines as our personalized "Micro Weddings!" Since 2020, smaller, elegant weddings have become the popular trend. In order to keep up with the times, we reorganized our Elopement Packages as well as added these Micro Wedding Packages. With our Micro Weddings, our Brides still receive all the amenities of a lavish wedding, but on a smaller scale. And the added commodity of this is, should your "wedding for 50" turn into a wedding for 200, (or even 350), we can accommodate you there as well! (We are fully aware of how things can change in an instant... especially with what has occurred since 2020.)
Not sure any of these packages are what you are looking for?
Call us! We are in the business of turning a young girl's fairy tale to an older girls reality!

Planning to wed in 2024?
2024 Prices.... (Subject to change. However, contact us to secure these prices.)
All Weekday and Weekend Packages have the same amenities as the latter 2023 packages. Please note, there will be no cake allowance for most packages after April 2023. However, we will always strive to assist you with proficient bakers in our area to select from. Please check out our Vendor page. The current main baker we have listed comes highly recommended and her skill level appears comparable to our previous baker whom we worked closely with. (We are sad our baker is retiring.) Should you choose to have your wedding with us and use Marguerite's Cakes- A Taste of Heaven, be sure to mention The Castle to receive your special "Castle rate." And please, let us know how she did. Your satisfaction is important to us.
For décor, our standard white linen with silver accent décor remains the same and is included for all Castle events. The slideshow on our Welcome page displays how the Castle is decorated for every event. Upgrading the décor to match your theme is always available and you have options. We have no issues should you choose to upgrade décor either by hiring our decorator, hiring your own decorator, or decorating yourself. The Castle does not set the fees for our decorator's customization nor do we get heavily involved in the process. Just as your cake, you will deal directly with the professional. Should you choose to decorate yourself, our coordinator will try to advise you as much as possible, but understand, the coordinator and our staff are getting ready for your wedding. Should you choose one of your latter options, please make sure whomever you place in charge, knows where you want your décor ahead of time and that you have allotted enough time to complete decorating before the wedding begins. For a fee, we allow extra time for setup before the wedding, if time is available. You can discuss this with Dolly or Mary.
The music, D.J., outdoor and indoor sound system, remain the same for the package selected.
The only changes occurring at this time for 2024 are:
Number of guests included in package price
The package price itself
Small cost per person increase
