“They were helpful but some things were stressful for us. We paid for the house for the weekend and even paid for the extra room for the rehearsal dinner, and after the rehearsal dinner they wouldn’t let us set up for the reception. The day after the wedding they wouldn’t let us clean out the reception hall until 8am but checkout was at 11, so we were up at 6 just waiting around until we could go in at 8 to clean up. Shelby was extremely helpful and even gave us the nicer rehearsal room due to the heavy rain, but they did shoo us out right at the minute that it ended. I guess you get what you pay for when you have a wedding at a venue though. She answers all our questions and it was a beautiful venue and a beautiful house, but I do wish they had a little more leniency. Felt a little strict. But it was a beautiful venue. Wish we could’ve used the pool but the mosquitoes were too bad at night.”

The venue itself is spacious with a huge dance floor, and for what we got, the price was honestly a bargain compared to other places we looked at.

I’ve worked so many brides wedding days there and see the way they operate so choosing them for my special day was a no brainer. From the day I booked, through a pandemic (original date 3/28/20), and to my new wedding date (9/18/20) Vanessa, Mike, and Jay were there every step of the way!! They were always a phone call away and helped me with every question or concern that I had! This place is THE. REAL. DEAL!!! They always go above & beyond for every single one of their couples! The food, service and the staff is unbeatable! My guests are still talking about how amazing everything was!!

Darryl's selections keep our guests on the dance floor, which was certainly a challenge for a Sunday afternoon wedding. We would not only recommend D2 Entertainment, but would also encourage those in the area to book them!”

What you see is what you get. No fancy job titles, no big company, no outsourcing editing. My approach is always to capture the authenticity of the story unfolding before me. From the brief glimpse of a tear in a groom's eye as his bride walks down the aisle, the split-second stillness of a toddler, or the tender moments between a new husband and wife. I strive to create images that tell stories. Images that age like fine wine and make you feel exactly how you felt on your wedding day. It's about the little moments, the ones that happen in-between, it's about the connection, the laughs, the tears….it’s what makes your story…yours.

“Daniel is theee man! I honestly don't have the words to fully describe how well he captured our wedding weekend. My husband and I planned our New Orleans destination wedding from the Midwest, & relied heavily on social media to select our vendors. That comes with a ton of uncertainty, but we fell in love with Daniel the first time we talked to him on the phone. His energy is so dope, such a down to earth dude. He and Jazmin are a complete VIBE. They treated us like family & the photos definitely reflect that sentiment. We get to look back on the most amazing weekend for years to come, and we’re so grateful to Daniel & Jazmin. Much love! - The Wesleys”

The venue itself was clean with a mazing food options and the staff was friendly, making Crystal Events feel more like a partner than just a vendor. Mr. Diego in particular went above and beyond, regularly checking in on us as a couple to ensure we felt supported throughout the planning process. Our wedding day was truly special, thanks in large part to the incredible team at Crystal Events.”

At Double Knot Creations, we bring the fun and excitement of a photo booth to your event—while giving guests a keepsake they can take home and enjoy for years to come. We specialize in creating custom photo magnets on-site for events, adding a special touch to your event and making every occasion unforgettable. Guests can pose for photos and receive a custom magnet that serves as a lasting reminder of your celebration. At Double Knot Creations, our goal is simple: create a fun, interactive experience that guests love and provide meaningful keepsakes that make memories last long after the event is over.

“Thank you Double Knot! I bought these as a little personalized gift for family, and everyone loved them! The picture quality translated surprisingly well onto the magnets—no weird distortion or faded colors. Plus, they actually hold up paper instead of falling off the fridge every time the door shuts. Super easy design tool on the website, too. Highly recommend!”

Swanson Photography is a New Orleans wedding photography team focused on real moments, honest color, and wedding days that actually feel like the people in them. We photograph the day as it unfolds, step in with direction when it’s useful, and stay out of the way when it’s not. We’ve photographed weddings all over New Orleans, from packed French Quarter second lines to full days at some of the city’s best-known venues.

Awarded Best of Zola
“The Swansons communicated very efficiently and timely. They were on time and ready when we arrived. This was the most fun I ever had during a photoshoot. It was the first shoot we had in about 5 years but definitely won't be the last. They were quick and only asked that we be ourselves. We enjoyed every minute.”
