Caroline & Jack had a fun destination wedding in New Orleans joined by their close family and lots of friends!
I joined the couple at their rehearsal dinner to capture a few images of that night and that was a great time to meet everyone, including the bride and groom. I had not had the opportunity to meet Caroline and Jack until that night since it was a destination wedding, so the rehearsal dinner gave me a chance to see who was who. I then joined Caroline and Jack on their wedding as they got dressed at the Omni Hotel on Royal Street in the French Quarter. Caroline and her girls were enjoying some girl time while getting dressed and Caroline was very calm. Smiling and calm. Yes, I love those brides. Caroline’s hair and make-up looked amazing and done by Flawless Bride. Jack, in the meantime, was chilling out in another hotel room with his groomsmen and waiting for his first meeting with his beautiful bride Caroline.
Caroline and Jack saw each other before the ceremony (yes, another one of my loves is a first meeting!). They had a sweet few moments on Royal Street for their first meeting and we grabbed a few images from that moment. Nice images of them spending time together on their wedding day. The ceremony was then held at the Trinity Episcopal church in Uptown New Orleans. The reception was held back at the Omni Hotel in the French Quarter. The guests enjoyed music from the band Jubilation, as well as some great food and service from Celeste and her crew at the Omni. The flowers were done by Meade Wenzel and the yummy cake was from one of my favorites, Flour Power! The dance floor was packed for pretty much most of the night so I think the guests really enjoyed themselves. I know Caroline and Jack were having a good time and enjoying every moment of their day.
At the end of the night, Caroline and Jack surprised their guests with a traditional New Orleans second line along with the New Wave Brass Band and then left on a horse drawn carriage for a ride in the Quarter. Caroline and Jack, I hope you enjoyed your honeymoon and congratulations!
