Welcome

WELCOME to PITOT HOUSE!

Tucked gracefully along Bayou St. John, Pitot House offers a wedding setting that feels timeless, intimate, and quietly magical. This historic Creole cottage is one of New Orleans’ most picturesque venues, rich with history, surrounded by water and greenery, and defined by a sense of calm that is increasingly rare.

Pitot House is a place where a wedding unfolds naturally. From ceremony to cocktail hour to dancing, the day flows without interruption. The warmth, energy, and story of your celebration carry seamlessly from moment to moment, allowing you and your guests to remain fully present from start to finish.

The experience is effortless yet elevated. Celebratory without being overproduced. Intimate without feeling small. It is a wedding that feels lived in rather than staged, honoring tradition while allowing space for movement, personality, and joy.

Why Couples Choose Pitot House

It is a setting where your wedding becomes part of the landscape, part of the history, and part of the city itself.
