Y’all, it doesn’t get much more classic “New Orleans wedding” than this! ✨⁣
⁣
Caitlin and Patrick had friends and family travel from all across the country — Arizona, New York, New Jersey, and beyond — to celebrate their big day in the heart of the Crescent City.⁣
⁣
From a beautiful ceremony at the iconic St. Patrick’s Church, to strolling through the French Quarter, to the sounds of a jazz band welcoming guests aboard a riverboat for their reception… every moment was filled with timeless New Orleans charm.⁣
⁣
The music, the history, the architecture, great food, the southern hospitality, the celebration — this day was a perfect reminder of why New Orleans weddings are truly one of a kind.⁣
⁣
Congratulations, Caitlin + Patrick! ❤️⁣

🌹 If you’ve been waiting for a sign to plan a wedding that actually feels like you — this is it.⁣⁣ 🌹
⁣⁣
This day wasn’t traditional. It wasn’t predictable. It wasn’t built from a checklist of what weddings “should” look like.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It was built from them.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
A sword for cake cutting.⁣⁣
A coin flip for vows.⁣⁣
Game break during reception.⁣⁣
Brooch boutonnières, grooms ruby ring, and a little dragonfly magic that decided to hang around for portraits.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And somehow, in the middle of all that uniqueness, there was still so much elegance, so much emotion, and so much love.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Because the truth is—when you stop trying to fit the mold, you make space for something real.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Your wedding doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s to be beautiful. It just has to look like you.⁣⁣

There are plenty of quotes about rain on your wedding day, but one I know that’s true is a wet knot is certainly much harder to untie. ⁣
⁣
Paris Gil Price and Andrew Price, this day was nearly a decade in the making, and I’m so blessed to have been able to document it for you.⁣
⁣
Cheers to two of you being able to dance through all of life’s storms together, and another toast for choosing a venue that has multiple backup plans available in case of rain! ⁣

⚜️ And to think it’s just Tuesday everywhere else…⁣
⁣
In South Louisiana, Mardi Gras Weddings are like regular weddings, just wrapped in a little extra magic. ⁣ ✨
⁣
The air feels festive, colors are richer, and there’s an unmistakable sense of joy that naturally spills into a wedding day. ⁣
⁣
From pops of purple, green, and gold in the details to second lines and unforgettable late-night celebrations, Mardi Gras weddings bring a spirit of fun, tradition, and togetherness that’s uniquely ours.⁣
⁣
Joy. Family. Food. Celebration…
Mardi Gras isn’t just a day, it’s a whole vibe!

ChatGPT didn’t miss the mark by much, just a few years, a few wrinkles, and a few pounds! 😂
