Paradigm Gardens

From our first conversation with Karen at Paradigm Gardens, we knew we had found our venue. She was honest and kind, answering all our questions while helping us problem solve every step of the way. The garden itself is stunning with hidden corners that gave our day an intimate feel, and the lighting and torches really brought the space to life. When rain threatened our wedding date, Karen and her team didn't just offer us a backup plan, they helped us think through options so we didn't feel like we were compromising anything we wanted. The food and beverages were top quality at prices that made sense, and they even customized the menu just for us. On the day of, the staff took great care of our guests, the goats were a huge hit, and Karen helped us handle all the rental logistics so we could actually enjoy ourselves. They even packed up leftovers for us to take home. Paradigm Gardens didn't just give us a beautiful venue, they gave us peace of mind and a day that felt entirely our own.

We are so happy that we found and chose Paradigm Gardens for our wedding! We really can’t imagine having done it anywhere else, because this felt like the perfect venue for us. We honestly loved the entire process with Karen and the gardens. We kept wondering why planning a wedding has a reputation for being stressful, because we really enjoyed it. The day went perfectly, and so so many of our guest said it was honestly the best wedding they had been to. I think it is because it was laid back, yet beautiful, felt true to us as a couple, touching, and allowed space and time for genuine connection with us and our guests. Also the food was UNBELIEVABLE. We loved the concept of the outdoor kitchen, it tasted great,and was not your typical wedding food. We also have said multiple times since the wedding that we just miss Karen. 100% recommend if you want a unique and beautiful space and experience for your wedding in New Orleans.

I went for their Mother’s Day brunch market - it’s a lovely, joyful space and the food was delicious. I imagine it’s even more fabulous in the evenings so I plan to go back for their chef’s dinner.

Paradigm Gardens surpassed our expectations. The goats were precious and such a fun unique experience that added to the excellent yoga session. Beyond that, the staff set up a wonderful post-yoga brunch with fresh empanadas from EmpaNOLA, a delicious fruit platter, and an amazing mimosa bar. They provided an intimate and memorable experience for our group. Thank you to Paradigm Gardens for making our time together so special. The next time we’re in NOLA, we’ll be back to visit! Hasta la próxima!

I can’t say enough about Paradigm Gardens! It was our dream venue and we had so many compliments about how beautiful it was. Karen and Sarah were a pleasure to work with. They would answer every question we had (sometimes multiple times because planning a wedding is crazy). They made it so much easier and we were never worried. The food is amazing. Again, every guest raved about the food. You can really tell that this venue and the people who work there care about every aspect of the gardens and the creatures that live there. A lot of time and effort goes into making your event happen from their team. It was awesome!!!
