We held our ceremony and reception at La Cité on June 16, 2018 and I can’t even describe how pleased we are with this venue! Thomas (Catering Director) and all staff went above and beyond that day to make our day pretty darn perfect! The venue is absolutely beautiful for a ceremony in the rotunda area (see photos!) and the reception room is a perfect blank slate for you to add your own special details (no ugly design carpet like you see in the hotels!). The prices are quite reasonable for the space rental, food and beverage, and you have the option to supply your own booze (for a corkage fee) or have them provide. The patio is perfect for cocktail hour and the location is perfect for great photos! Thomas really accommodated us and was very reasonable to deal with through the whole process. I highly recommend this venue for your perfect wedding! Oh - and the food is delish! We got so many compliments on it! Thank you to Thomas and his staff for making this truly a day to remember �

I have been here for a couple public events now. Both times were really fun, and the people were great. Since I dont speak french I wish their public events included more English. Perhaps they will in the future.
