Question
What will the weather be like?
Answer
New Orleans is beautiful in the Spring. This is when a lot of people choose to visit due to the humidity being slightly lower and temperatures averaging a high of 73 degrees and a low of 54 degrees. Ran chances are slim, but you never know when a pop up shower might occur.

Directly after the ceremony, we will be taking a few pictures with our family and bridal party. All guests are asked to make their way to the reception location.

Question
Does your wedding have a theme?
Answer
In true NOLA fashion, we will be having a Mardi Gras themed wedding! Purple, green and gold! We will have a few masks for you to wear and take home, but feel free to take time before the wedding to explore the French Quarter and pick out your very own mask to bring to the wedding! You can find them everywhere!

How do I get to the venue?

The Omni Royal Orleans is located in the heart of the French Quarter at the intersection of Royal St. and St Louis St., just two blocks from Jackson Square. Walking is going to be the best means of transportation, but there are also Pedicabs (room for two people, basically a bicycle), Uber, Lyft, and even the Street Cars!
