A New Orleans elopement at St. Ann Cottage at the Bourbon Orleans Hotel, right in the heart of the French Quarter. 🖤✨

Tara and Tyler’s French Quarter wedding was full of personality — from Tara’s incredible black wedding dress and veil to their intimate ceremony surrounded by the people they love most.

And then came the rain… which somehow made their day even more New Orleans. ☔️ A Second Line through the French Quarter, live jazz, umbrellas, kisses in the rain, and one unforgettable celebration.

A New Orleans elopement can be intimate, meaningful AND still feel like a full wedding day. 🤍✨

Teresa and Charles’ day was such a beautiful example of that. From exchanging vows beneath those gorgeous moss-draped live oaks, with live music beside them, to wandering through the French Quarter and soaking up that unmistakable New Orleans charm.

The little dances, the kisses, the way they look at each other… their day just felt so them. 🥹

That’s the beauty of eloping — slowing everything down, choosing what matters to you, and actually enjoying the experience together.

New Orleans elopements beneath the iconic Southern live oaks are something truly special. 🤍🌿

Cierra and Kevin’s intimate wedding day was filled with heartfelt vows, plenty of laughter, beautiful personal details, and their closest people there to share it all.

Because choosing to elope doesn’t mean leaving everyone behind. You can still include the people who matter most while keeping your wedding intimate, relaxed, and centered around the two of you. ✨

What does a New Orleans elopement actually look like? 🤍✨ Let’s take a little walk through Taylor & Ryan’s day.

It started with getting ready and those quiet we’re really getting married today moments, followed by seeing each other for the first time. Then came their intimate ceremony and the moment they officially became husband and wife. 💍

After the “I dos,” we headed out to explore the French Quarter and Pirate’s Alley, wandering the historic streets, stopping for photos along the way and even embracing a little New Orleans rain. ☔️

And that’s one of our favorite things about a New Orleans elopement — your day can still have all those meaningful wedding moments, but with the freedom to slow down, explore the city and actually enjoy being newlyweds together.

If Taylor & Ryan’s day feels like your kind of wedding, we’d love to help you create your own New Orleans elopement experience. 🤍

If you’re dreaming of a New Orleans elopement with ALL the charm, history, and personality this city is known for, the French Quarter is pretty hard to beat. 🤍✨

There’s something so special about wandering these historic streets on your wedding day. One minute you’re surrounded by gorgeous architecture and iron balconies, the next you’re standing near St. Louis Cathedral, and then you turn a corner and find another completely different backdrop. That’s what we love about the French Quarter — it’s romantic, full of character, and gives your elopement that unmistakable New Orleans feeling.

If that sounds like your kind of wedding day, we’d absolutely love to wander these streets with you and capture it all. 🤍

Your wedding bouquet should feel like you — not just match your wedding colors. 🤍💐

Three little ways to make yours more personal:

💐Choose flowers that feel like you. Think about the colors, textures, and overall feeling you want your day to have.

🌸Add something meaningful. A sentimental flower, special ribbon, or little heirloom can make your bouquet uniquely yours.

🌷Let your florist create. Bring your inspiration, but give your florist room to interpret it around your dress, location, and the feeling of your day.

We love seeing the beautiful, personal ways our couples bring their bouquets to life — and we’re so lucky to work with Floral Girl Kimberly to make it happen. 🤍

City Park might just be New Orleans’ best-kept secret for elopements. 💚

Century-old oak trees dripping in Spanish moss. Quiet lagoons that catch the morning light just right. Little hidden corners that feel like they were made for exactly this — just the two of you, saying the words that matter most.

It’s the kind of place that doesn’t need much added to it. The beauty is already there, waiting.

If you’ve been searching for a spot that feels romantic without trying too hard — this might be it. ✨
