You will notice there is no dinner selection in your invite. Customary New Orleans weddings do not have a formal seated dinner, as it is considered a “cocktail style reception”. Passed appetizers and food stations will be open upon the start of the reception, and will remain open for 3 hours. You will serve yourself whenever you feel like it and sit where ever you choose. Don't be shy and make some new friends. Get ready for some fantastic New Orleans food!
The wedding venue is walking distance, a streetcar ride, or short Uber / cab from all hotels. No transportation will be provided.
Garden party / semi formal.
