This is especially true for elopements and small ceremonies. There are truly a multitude of ways you could get married in the crescent city. You could make it official under the majestic Tree of Life in Audubon Park, then take your guests to dine on some fabulous New Orleans cuisine in the French Quarter over looking a lush courtyard. So if you crave a ceremony, big or small, The Big Easy has something unique to offer.

Some of the first steps, include researching the best times of year in New Orleans for weather. I would recommend February to May and September to December. Next I would find a Officiant.
