6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Please join us and our families for food & drinks on Friday evening in the Industrial Garden at the Promise of Justice Initiative. We are excited for you to reconnect with old friends and make new ones as we kick off the weekend's celebrations! Casual attire/ come as you are!
6:30 pm
Doors open at 6:00 PM Ceremony begins promptly at 6:30 PM For transportation or rideshares, navigate to the Audubon Zoo. There is plenty of parking available. Entrance to the ceremony and reception location is to the left of the main Zoo entrance. For simplicity's sake, we'll suggest Cocktail Attire. We encourage our guests to wear whatever makes them feel festive and comfortable. Our ceremony will be outdoors and the reception will be indoor/outdoor. You'll want to wear your dancing shoes, as we'll be second lining from the ceremony to the reception!
7:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Come celebrate with us after our ceremony! We will be having a classic New Orleans cocktail reception. For those who are unfamiliar, this means we will not be having a seated dinner and there will not be assigned seats. (please let us know if you have mobility concerns and would like a designated spot to sit!) We will have passed hors d'oeuvres and buffet stations open throughout the evening, and of course an open bar. We hope you will take the opportunity to mingle, eat, drink, and dance with us all evening!
11:00 pm
We're headed to the dive bar we always thought was nice (it's where we met!) Party Buses will whisk us from the reception venue to the place where it all began! More food, more booze, more music, & more fun!
11:00 am - 1:00 pm
Join us for brunch fare and drinks as we close out the weekend's festivities. We'll be upstairs at Sidecar (the patio of the Rusty Nail for our NOLA folks!). Rumor is there will be a drag show downstairs on the patio, so bring some singles if you'd like to support some local talent!
