Their day started getting dressed in the Lafayette Hotel in downtown New Orleans on St. Charles Avenue. Annie enjoyed her moments with her girls while getting dressed and Billy chilled out with his guys in the same hotel.  We were chatting away and laughing in the girls’ room – they were keeping me entertained  Once the whole group was ready, it was time for some fun and a first meeting for Annie and Billy.  They decided to see each other before the wedding and spend some time walking around downtown with their wedding party for some fun pics.  The festival next door added tons more people than expected to the streets, but we just worked around it.  Their first meeting was very sweet and loving and full of laughs while their entire wedding party watched from across the street.  Again, so happy and so in love and so perfect for each other.

We then headed to Ralph’s on the Park by City Park for their beautiful ceremony and reception.  The gorgeous flowers were done by the awesome Diane with Fat Cat Flowers and the great looking and tasting cake was my favorite – Flour Power!  So yummy.  Ralphs on the Park did an amazing job for their reception.  The staff was phenomenal and the food was excellent.  They made sure Annie and Billy were absolutely taken care of the entire night.  I think everyone had a fantastic time and truly enjoyed it the venue, the food, the music and to see Annie and Billy happily married!

Annie and Billy, I loved being a part of your wedding and meeting your family and friends.  Congratulations and such an amazing, sweet, fun wedding!
