Dawn and Dan’s ceremony took place at St. Rita Catholic Church in uptown New Orleans. The interior of this church was actually quite well lit, a rarity!
After the ceremony, we headed to the beautiful Le Pavillon for the reception.
During Dawn’s bridal portrait last month, I learned that Dan is a fighter pilot… an Eagle driver in the Louisiana Air National Guard’s 122nd Fighter Squadron, the Bayou Militia. Dan wore F-15 cuff links, and his groom’s cake was decorated with the squadron’s insignia.
Dawn & Dan booked the Bucktown All-Stars to perform at the reception, and I don’t think they could have made a better choice… the musicianship of each and every member of this band was absolutely astounding, and they all seemed to be having a blast. On several occasions, the brass section would venture out onto the dance floor and interact with the bride and groom and guests, which was a lot of fun.
It was a great wedding… congratulations Dawn & Dan!
