What time should I arrive?

Because the ceremony begins promptly at 7:30 pm, we recommend you arrive between 7:00-7:15 pm to ensure you are seated on time.

Question

Where do I park for the ceremony?

Answer

Parking near the church is limited. There are pay to park lots in the surrounding blocks. Please keep in mind it is also French Quarter Fest weekend which may affect parking availability. If you are staying at our hotel block, the church is a 5 minute walk!

Question

For our out of town guests...

Answer

To help alleviate travel issues from the ceremony to the reception, we will provide transportation for our out of town guests. We will have a transportation service to bring you from the church to The Balcony, our reception venue. We will also have transportation at the end of the night from the reception venue back to the hotel in New Orleans.

Question

Do I have a plus one?

Answer

If we have reserved a plus-one for you, it will be specified on your invitation and when you RSVP through our website. Although we would love to offer a plus one to all guests, we have a strict guest list to meet our venue capacity restrictions. We appreciate your understanding and can't wait to celebrate with you!
