Expand your mind… and your wardrobe for this event by checking out some of these amazing shops when you get into town:
What kind of food will be served?
We will be hosting a New Orleans-style cocktail reception. Small plates will be available from buffet tables, passed platters, and serving windows in place of a seated dinner service. We are still planning our menu, but we will have a variety of meaty, vegetarian, and vegan options available. Check back on the event page for more info as it becomes available.
Should we rent a car?
It’s probably not necessary. Our city is pretty small and most, if not all, of the wedding activities will be within a 10-minute drive in an area with lots of Lyfts and Ubers. If you do rent a car, parking is pretty easy everywhere except for the French Quarter.
The venue has plentiful parking.
What neighborhood should we stay in?
We recommend you stay in the Marigny, Bywater, French Quarter, CBD or Treme.
