This wonderful couple was to have been wed at Jackson Square, but inclement weather forced the ceremony to move to the wedding chapel at the Hilton St. Charles. Though I’m sure Kristen and Steve were disappointed, they didn’t show it, and refused to let the rain dampen their spirit. Thanks to Michele Adams and her Unique Weddings in New Orleans team, and Steven with Dunn & Sonnier Flowers, the last-minute venue move went surprisingly smooth.
After the ceremony, as we awaited transportation to the reception, the fabulous Pin-Stripe Brass Band entertained in the lobby of the hotel, which the guests (most of them from out-of-town) as well as the steady stream of Jazz Fest refugees returning from a rainy day at the Fairgrounds seemed to really enjoy.
After the beautiful reception at Pat O’s on the River, the couple received a wonderful sparkler sendoff, and rode away on a horse-drawn carriage.
