Saturday · 17 April 2027 · New Orleans
We met sheltering from a sudden spring rain beneath the same stone archway, both late for somewhere else. Neither of us made it to where we were going. Six years, two apartments and one very patient dog later, we're going back to the city where it started.
We would love for you to spend a slow, music-filled weekend with us — good food, a short ceremony, and a long night of dancing.
“Come as you are, stay for the second line.”
Join us for as much as you can. Exact venue details will be shared with confirmed guests by email.
From 7 in the evening
Easy drinks, small plates and a chance to say hello before the big day. Arrive whenever your travel allows.
Ceremony at 4:30, dancing till late
A twenty-minute ceremony in a courtyard garden, followed by dinner, toasts and a brass band that won't let anyone sit down.
10 in the morning to noon
Coffee, beignets and a gentle send-off. Drop in on your way to the airport — no need to RSVP separately.
The answers to the questions we hear most. Anything else, add a note to your RSVP and we'll reply personally.
Garden formal for Saturday: suits or light jackets, dresses or jumpsuits in any colour you love. April evenings can be warm and humid, so breathable fabrics and shoes that handle grass are a good idea.
Little ones are warmly welcome at the welcome evening and brunch. Saturday's celebration is adults-only so parents can enjoy a night off.
We recommend staying close to the historic centre so everything is walkable. We'll email a short list of hotels with a guest rate once you RSVP.
Yes. The ceremony and reception spaces are step-free with seating throughout. Let us know any access needs in your RSVP and we'll plan around them.
Your company is truly the gift. If you would like to mark the day, a contribution toward our honeymoon fund will be shared by email with confirmed guests.
We're asking for an unplugged ceremony so everyone can be present. Phones out at the reception — we'd love to see the dance floor through your eyes.
Please reply by 1 February 2027. One response per invitation is perfect.
