FAQs
Question
How will you address COVID safety?
Answer
We will work with our venue to ensure that the event follows local COVID-19 event requirements. As of 3/28/2022, there are no COVID restrictions in Orleans Parish. However, we kindly request that guests take a COVID test prior to attending the wedding. This will help protect attendees and minimize the risk of a super spreader event. Finally, bullying or harassing guests who choose to wear masks or other PPE will not be tolerated. We want this event to be as fun and safe as possible for everyone we love.
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
When you RSVP on Zola, if your invitation gives you the option to RSVP for a “Guest” or the specific name of your partner/spouse, then yes. If not, we would prefer it if it was just you. If you don't see the guest option on your RSVP, try entering that person's name separately to check, or contact Leanne directly if you're unsure.
Question
Are kids allowed at the wedding weekend events?
Answer
Yes, kids are allowed at the wedding ceremony/reception and the Family Fais Do-Do. You should have the option on your Zola RSVP to include them. However, we encourage you to make the appropriate choice for your family values. The wedding will be an evening event with an open bar and without on-site childcare, which may not be suitable for young children. The Family Fais Do-Do will be a family-friendly event for all ages.
Question
Will there be allergen safe food options available?
Answer
Yes! If you have dietary restrictions, please let us know as soon as possible so we can accommodate you. We will have vegetarian, gluten-free, and shellfish-free options available. We will also ensure that there are Lent-observant foods available at the wedding which is taking place on a Friday evening during the Lenten season. If you have severe allergies, it may be safest to choose to eat ahead of the event or bring safe snacks.
Question
Are there hotel recommendations for the weekend?
Answer
Yes! Check out our 'travel' page to see reserved room blocks available.
Question
Is there parking at the wedding venue?
Answer
There is plenty of parking at the venue. However, there will be an open bar so if you plan to drink please have a designated driver or an alternative plan for transportation.
Question
What's a Second Line?
Answer
The Second Line consists of people who follow a band to enjoy the music, dance, and celebrate together. This is a New Orleans tradition. For weddings, Second Lines signify the beginning of a new life together. Usually, the second line brings the wedding guests and bridal party from the ceremony to the reception. We will be secondlining between our wedding ceremony and wedding reception.
Question
What's a Fais Do-Do?
Answer
A "fais do-do" (fay-doe-doe) is a Cajun dance or get-together. Ours will be a family get-together the day after the wedding hosted by the groom's parents.
