New Orleans Weddings
I know that
people who live here, get married here, and listing wedding and bridal sites is
just another service that I thought would help local couples to plan their
wedding. You might looking for a place to buy wedding gowns, such as the
House of Broel, or for a location to
have an elegant French Quarter
Courtyard Wedding.
 Sometimes,
however, I tend to forget that New Orleans is not just another city. I learned
recently, that many couples like to come to New Orleans to get married. Perhaps
it is to have a jump start on their New Orleans honeymoon, or maybe because
their honeymoon may include a cruise from New Orleans. At any rate, I came to
realize that planning an out of town wedding is not easy, and if I can help to
make it a little easier, than so much the better.
There are a
lot of things that need to be done in a timely fashion, if the wedding is to go
smoothly. I know of an occasion, the day before the wedding, when the groom was
asked by his mother, "You did get the marriage license, didn't you?"
"Get the Marriage license?!?" asked the groom. Fortunately,
some personal connections helped to cut through some red tape, and long lines.
Bob Walker's New
Orleans Area Wedding Guide has information about marriage licenses,
marriage license bureaus, and Louisianan marriage laws, and other resources to
help things go smoothly.
There is
more, including a nice web site,
New Orleans
Wedding Links, that was built by a couple who did come to New Orleans to be
married. They have the experience, and are willing to share the experience, and
offer many tips and suggestions.
Some
additional resources to see are:
Leah's Pralines
Pralines, chocolates, Creole sauces, personalized wedding favors and party
trays.
Weddings on the
River
The 1,000 passenger Paddlewheeler Creole Queen and the 600 passenger Riverboat
Cajun Queen are a favorite for wedding receptions.
