Kristenwood Catering and Reception Facility - Greenwell Springs, Louisiana

We recently celebrated our wedding at this incredible venue, and it truly exceeded every expectation! The space itself is absolutely stunning—elegantly decorated with thoughtful details that created the perfect romantic atmosphere. Every corner was picture-perfect, from the lighting to the floral arrangements and décor.

The food was absolutely delicious! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how flavorful and fresh everything was. Each dish was beautifully presented and full of taste, adding to the overall experience.

A special thank you to Mrs. Beth, who was nothing short of amazing. She kept everything running smoothly and on time without ever making us feel rushed. Her warmth, professionalism, and organization were such a gift—she made our day stress-free and seamless.

We can’t say enough good things about this venue. From the gorgeous setting to the delicious food and the impeccable service, everything was top-notch. If you’re looking for a place that will make your wedding day magical and has very great prices , this is it!

I love this place. It now holds a very special place in my heart. The chapel is as pretty as can be inside and out. Perfect for small weddings. They also have a very nice event building right next door. I live out of state and wish we had a place like this around home.

I had the worst experience at this facility. The owner was rude and inconsistent. After our event was over she wanted the tables to be placed back in the original setup, however we could not recall exactly how they were. She must have been frustrated and began aggressively pushing tables and slamming chairs. Prior to the event we called and one of the employees gave us approval to put our cake in the fridge until our event started. When we arrived back home she called us yelling saying that we could not store our cake there and that we had to come back and get it. When we arrived we apologized and further explained that someone gave us approval, however, we were unable to provide a name. She then said we could leave the cake, making us take an unnecessary trip to the venue. I would not recommend 0/10.

Had my 50th class reunion there. Really nice facility with a small chapel for weddings. The food was excellent! Tables were spaced well to get by for visiting. Great band and dance floor. Has outdoor covered seating if the band is a little too loud for conversations.

We had a great time watching Jay Dupuis perform as Elvis!
Not enough room for handicapped people in wheelchair to go to bathroom. My stepson had to leave during performance to go home to use the bathroom. He did not return. Too hard for him.
Too many chairs blocking entrance to the bathroom.

Had a last minute change of plans for our college graduates celebration due to weather. Our large scale crawfish boil/grad party needed to be moved undercover. Ms Beth was super helpful in getting that done for us. The venue was everything and more than I anticipated. A lot of great parking area and the outdoor patio was perfectly set up for our cookout! Staff so accommodating and friendly. All of our guests were very pleased. We will definitely use again if/when the occasion arises!

This was in April 2025, but we had the best time!! I believe her name was Mrs Beth. Sooooo good of a person. She and her husband! They set the ground rules which were followed, the venue was huge, clean, nice area, just lovely. We had more than enough time to set up, more than enough time to clean afterwards. Plenty of parking!! We had so much fun and id definitely recommend this location a million times over!!
