Where should I stay?

New Orleans is a great city with a lot of personality, and there are plenty of wonderful places to stay. Our reception will take place in the Mid-City neighborhood. There are not many hotels, so an AirB&B or traditional B&B would be the best option if you wish to stay close. Other neighborhoods to consider are the Marigny/Bywater, the Garden District, and of course the French Quarter and surrounding areas. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about specific locations!

Semi-formal. We ask that you wear semi-formal attire such as a cocktail length dress, dressy separates, a suit and tie, or collard shirt. Please no blue jeans.

Late March in New Orleans is typically wonderful, but can be unpredictable. The temperate average is in the mid 70s, but has been known to be much colder as well as much warmer. Check the weather a few days before you come. Make sure you prepare for rain!

Are children welcome?

Yes! Children are welcome to the reception, just make sure to include their name age on the RSVP. If you prefer to have a child-free night local and background checked professional childcare workers can be recommended as babysitters. Unfortunately, due to state laws no guests under 21 may come to the after-party.
