Spotlight: New Orleans

Dec 30, 2008


As promised, here's a peek of our sweet stay in the Big Easy. I can't believe we've lived just an hour away from this little gem for almost a year and never found the time to make the short trek over. We're already planning our next visit and we can't wait.


Like I said during our stay, if the commute wouldn't be so harsh for J, I'd have us packed up and moving to the Garden District tomorrow. Such a relaxed elegance about the area. Wouldn't an intimate wedding be perfect in the church above? I'm imagining a late-night event with loads of candlelight. Luminarias could guide guests to the reception.

I just couldn't get enough of the architecture. And, I kind of have a thing for doorways. I kept imagining how sweet couple portraits would turn out lounging on the steps of these southern lovelies.

Letter box, how I love you! And you could make a darling double as a card holder at a wedding reception.
These cakes at Sucre on Magazine Street were too gorgeous not to share.
