Our ceremony will be at First Grace United Methodist Church in Mid City. The reception will take place at Messina's at the Terminal, which is located in the historic lakefront airport, and is about a twenty-minute drive from the ceremony location. There will be plenty of time after the ceremony to get to the reception.
There is plenty free parking at both the church (parking lot behind the church and street parking) and at the reception venue (huge parking lot in front of the building). The reception venue is about a twenty-minute drive from the church, so please plan to travel in your car, carpool with other invited guests, or use a rideshare service. Transportation will not be provided.
Wear whatever you feel good in! From casual cocktail to glitzy glam, we just want you to be comfortable and have a good time. The weather in New Orleans in mid-November is usually perfect. Both the ceremony and reception are inside, but maybe bring a light sweater or jacket in case it's a little chilly outside.
We have a limited amount of seats reserved at the reception venue. Therefore, we will only be able to accommodate those listed on your wedding invitation. We appreciate your understanding!
In consideration of limited venue seating, kindly note that our guest list is exclusively adults. Children are limited to the bride and groom's immediate family and breast-feeding infants.
Feel free to reach out to Tee or Courtney with additional questions!
