Dear Ms. Wangler:
This is written to complement you on the pleasant ambience and talented staff which make the Bourbon Street Balcony such a great gathering spot. Over the past few years, my husband and I have attended three parties there, and each has been memorable.
The most recent event which brought us to your facility was the party hosted a few weeks ago by Ohio State University's metallurgy department. Your staff was professional and friendly throughout the event and helped to make the evening special, particularly for the out-of-town attendees.
We especially enjoyed our interactions with Valerie, Harry, Ian and Van. They, and each of their co-workers, exemplify that uniquely New Orleans blending of kindly spirits, hospitable action and wit, a combination which represents your business and the city in a very positive manner.

Sincerely,
Edyth Hutton

Dear Bob and Carol,
Thank you both so much for all of your help in making our rehearsal reception an overwhelming success! For many of our guests it was their first time in NOLA and you helped us show them how it is done! You were so easy to work with that you made planning our event from a distance extremely easy. Please call on us if need a reference for potential clients.

Again, thank you and best wishes for your continued success!
Jim and Beth Delehanty

Hi Bob,
It was such a pleasure meeting you both, and we had an absolutely incredible time. Your staff were absolutely perfect, and the venue could not have been any better. I'm still getting "thank you's" from everyone involved daily -- everyone had a blast. The only thing I would change if I had it to do over again would be to switch from liquor to beer early in the evening -- wow, was I hurting the next day! I hope we didn't drink your bar dry for the following days!

Best regards,
Brandon Maddox

7/26/2010 I rented the 232 Bourbon Street balcony for my brothers bachelor party using http://bourbonstreetbalcony.com and we had a great experience. I did a TON of research before selecting a space for our 23 friends and this location was by far the nicest and most moderately priced venue that I could find. In addition to that, the location is absolutely perfect and right smack in the middle of the heart of Bourbon. The owners, Carol and Bob, were very gracious hosts and communicated so well with me through the entire booking process and the evening itself. The balcony itself was easy to access, very clean, extremely spacious and included plenty of sitting area, private restrooms and a large balcony that easily accommodated 23 of us with room for more. Overall, a great experience and I would recommend this service to others!

Hi Bob and Carroll,

Mr. Ostendorf, Julie, Christine, and myself would like to thank you for the wonderful time that we had this past Friday over Mardi Gras weekend.

We loved the fact that everything was so well organized and taken care of for us.

I especially had a great time because it was my birthday. I thought the decorations were festive, the location was perfect, and the food was great. The music was jumping, and the outside heaters were probably my favorite.

I know that Mr. Ostendorf would love to have more Mardi Gras parties with you guys at 232 Bourbon, so please keep us in mind in the future.

Hopefully next time we can have it for the whole weekend!

Thanks again,
Laura Coakley

WE HAD A GREAT TIME FOOD WAS GOOD AND WE NEVER GOT THIRSTY HOPE TO SEE YOU NEXT YEAR KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

Bob, Carol and Valerie,
Unfortunately, I was unable to attend, but all who attended from my group thought it was awesome! All were from out of state and said the experience they were afforded by having a balcony on Bourbon was outstanding. I enjoyed working with you all in setting this up and look forward to another occasion where i too can attend. I will let all the others know of the website for comments and feedback. Because I work for Lockheed Martin, which is a large company, I will once again let everyone know of the Balcony on Bourbon and hope to be able to set something up for them at a later date. Do you do anything for the St. Patricks/St. Joseph celebration in New Orleans?
Again, thank you all for your help - everyone was very helpful and all questions were answered timely and accurately

Just wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know that you and your staff did an outstanding job Monday night. The room was always clean and there was never an empty tray of sandwices. Bob and I really enjoyed ourselves despite my broken foot. We are looking forward to 2005!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted to let you know we had a great time at your balcony party Sunday night, and will definitely recommend it to anyone we know planning the trip in the future. The balcony party will be remembered by all of us who were there.
Thanks again!
