The Details…
When we started the exciting journey of planning our wedding, it was clear to us that our two main priorities were getting married and bringing the best people we know—our friends & family—together to celebrate. Once we learned about the charm of a traditional New Orleans wedding, we knew this was the place to do it.
We chose Maison Dupuy’s beautiful courtyard as our venue for the ceremony & reception. The venue is a short walk from the main strip on Bourbon Street and the hotel has enough rooms to accommodate all of our guests. Our hope is to have everyone on site so we can maximize our time together.
We plan to continue building out our site so that you have quick access to everything you need to know. Check back for more updates!

A classic New Orleans wedding has a lively vibe. After the ceremony, the wedding party will partcipate in a parade through the French Quarter called the Second Line before heading back to the reception. Hors D’oeuvres will be served until the bride & groom make their entrance.
Food stations will open and the dancefloor will kick off after the introduction of the newlyweds. There's no assigned seating or formal dinner time, so feel free to eat, dance, and mingle whenever you like!

In New Orleans culture, the Second Line tradition holds significant importance, serving as a symbol of fresh beginnings for newlyweds. This vibrant parade embodies the values of unity and celebration in a unique way.
The "First Line" features the band, the bride, and groom leading the way, setting the pace and creating the energy for the parade. Following closely behind is the "Second Line," comprised of the wedding party, who enthusiastically join in the festivities.
