8:00 pm
Welcome to New Orleans! Join us for cocktails and light bites as we kick off the wedding weekend! We’ll be gathering for drinks, light bites, and good company - come say hello and celebrate before the big day.
5:00 pm
Black-Tie Optional: Tuxes and gowns are preferred, but not required.
We kindly ask our guests to arrive between 4:30 PM and 4:50 PM to ensure you are seated and ready as the ceremony will begin promptly at 5:00 PM. A New Orleans cocktail style wedding reception has no assigned seating or plated dinner. After the first dances, the food stations and the dance floor will open. Eat when you’re hungry, dance when you’re moved, and sit wherever you’d like!
10:00 pm
At the end of our reception, we’ll have a traditional New Orleans Second Line parade to a nearby bar and kick off the after-party!
