Your presence at our wedding is already enough of a gift. But if you would really like to get us something, you can visit the Registry section of the site for gifting options.
We ask that you put away your phones and cameras during the ceremony. We have a professional photographer to capture the moment for all of us!
A second line is a foot parade led by a brass band. It's a New Orleans tradition that celebrates new beginnings. There are two parts to a second line. The newly weds and the brass band make up the first line, and the wedding guests who follow make up the second line. We will second line for about 15 to 20 minutes after the ceremony. The total distance of the parade will be just under one mile, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes!
With Madison's family in Alabama and Eddie's family in the UK & Europe, we decided to get married somewhere our friends and families on both sides of the Atlantic can get to and, once there, navigate with ease. New Orleans has public transportation (Uber, Lyft, buses, and streetcars) for those who are flying and parking for those who are driving into the city. The second reason is that we love New Orleans! We always have fun here. We hope you will too.
