Oh City Park, we love you. The place we got engaged is located in City Park - Langles Bridge! Highlights of the park are the Sculpture Garden, Cafe Du Monde, renting a bike and exploring this enormous space, New Orleans Museum of Art, and picnicking near the Spring tulips!
Sorry for being vague but there's just so much to see in the French Quarter! Pop in and out of shops, grab drinks at random bars, explore Jackson Square, and watch street performers. And no, you don't have to flash anyone for beads!
If you're here for an extra long weekend and love a museum, this is a history buff's dream.
Gorgeous park nestled in the Uptown neighborhood where we live and located directly across from Tulane and Loyola's campus.
Sounds cheesy, but this is so fun! And you take pit stops into local bars along the way... need I say more?
One of our favorite "hole-in-the-wall" places to grab creole and cajun food. Order the Chicken Tchoupitoulas, and thank us later.
Tyler's favorite restaurant in the city!
Amazing place to grab lunch while exploring the French Quarter. Try their Pimm's Cup and the muffaletta to get the full New Orleans experience.
Taylor's favorite restaurant in the city!
Lively seafood restaurant in Taylor and Tyler's neighborhood! Great for groups.
Incredible local seafood and produce. Great to share a bunch of plates with a group or a pair!
Casual Cajun butcher shop. Don't forget to try the mac n cheese.
Casual bistro with family-style platters of locally sourced Middle Eastern fare & outdoor dining. This restaurant is our latest obsession.
Playful sandwich shop with nostalgic plates and cutlery, unique menu and funky decor. Famous for their fried bologna sandwich!
Our favorite breakfast spot! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
Quintessential, cash-only New Orleans dive bar. Are the drinks amazing? No. Would I lie in front of bulldozer if someone threatened to tear it down? You bet!
80's themed martini bar with incredible share plates. Come for the food and drinks, but stay for the trippy bathrooms...
Our favorite cocktail bar in the whole city probably... They also just won Best Bar in America!
Insanely chic and vibey cocktail bar.
Wine and cheese patio bar near our wedding venue! Great wines, food and live music on the patio.
Casual wine and beer garden with bar food! Will we potentially end up here on our weekend? Maybe so!
Divey French Quarter bar famous for their frozen Irish coffee which tastes like ice cream and happiness.
I took my sister, Amanda, here maybe 3 times the last time she was in town visiting. Go here for breakfast or lunch or dessert if you're in the Uptown neighborhood and pick us up a slice of key lime pie :)
Incredible bakery and coffee shop on the edge of the French Quarter and very close to our wedding venue!
There's a few locations of this local coffee shop! I go here to buy my everyday beans.
