Things To Do
Café Du Monde
The bride recommends a frozen café au lait and an order of beignets!
Commander's Palace
We went here for our first date! The BEST restaurant in the city, but often requires reservations. Turtle soup!
Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar
Believed to be the oldest structure used as a bar in the United States, built between 1722 and 1732. Order the "Purple Drank" (Voodoo Daiquiri).
Parkway Bakery & Tavern
Some of the best po' boy's around... order a "peacemaker" -- fried shrimp and fried oysters, or a roast beef po' boy with gravy. Mmmmmm...
Port of Call
"The Best Burger In New Orleans"... and they're not lying! Add a loaded baked potato, a root beer, and get ready for a nap!
Antoine's Restaurant
New Orleans' oldest restaurant (~1840) with world-renowned French-Creole cuisine.
Mardi Gras World
Take a tour and get a behind-the-scenes look at the history of Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Here, artists work year-round to build floats and props for each Mardi Gras season.
The National WWII Museum
New Orleans designed and constructed the "Higgins Boats" used during D-Day, and the National WWII Museum is located in downtown New Orleans because of it. This museum is incredible and definitely worth a trip!
