Due to limited space, attendance is limited to the guests listed on your save the date and invitation. Plus ones and children are included only if specified. We are unable to accommodate additional guests and appreciate your understanding.
The dress code is Black Tie Optional. Gentlemen are welcome to wear a tuxedo, though a formal dark suit is perfectly appropriate. Ladies, we kindly ask that you wear a floor-length gown. To help create the rich, moody atmosphere we're envisioning, we encourage guests to wear deep jewel tones or chocolate brown. Festive formal attire is highly encouraged, so feel free to embrace luxurious fabrics such as satin, silk, and velvet, along with sequins, feathers, fringe, statement jewelry, bold silhouettes, and dramatic flair. If you've been saving a fabulous outfit for a special occasion, this is your moment. We kindly ask that guests refrain from wearing shades traditionally reserved for the bride, including white, ivory, cream, or champagne. And if you think you can outdress the bride… we welcome the challenge.
A second line is a traditional New Orleans wedding parade led by a brass band, where guests follow along dancing and celebrating the newlyweds. Guests will wave handkerchiefs, while the couple carries parasols, as everyone joins in making their way from the ceremony to the reception. We highly recommend changing into comfortable shoes for the walk.
We recommend arriving on Thursday, April 1st to allow time to settle in before the wedding on Friday, April 2nd. If possible, we encourage everyone to stay through Saturday night, April 3rd, as we’ll be making informal plans to spend time together around the city that day and evening.
We will share recommended hotel options under the Travel section of the website once our room blocks are finalized. Please check back soon for more details!
Yes! We will continue to update the website with additional details and FAQs as the wedding approaches. Please check back from time to time for the latest information and updates.
