Immaculate Conception & Federal Ballroom Wedding – Myriam & Danny – 1/23/10

Myriam and Danny’s ceremony took place at the gorgeous Immaculate Conception Church on Baronne St. in downtown New Orleans, and the priest who married them also had married Danny’s parents 37 years ago!  Afterwards, the bride and groom’s limo was escorted by a fleet of Shriners on motorcycles around the block to the Federal Ballroom in the Security Center on Carondelet for the reception.

There, the fabulous Topcats provided the entertainment.  Buzzy (the band’s guitarist) was playing a beautiful custom made New Orleans Saints guitar that was just plain awesome and was undoubtedly the envy of any New Orleans musician who saw it, especially in light of the team’s incredible victory over the Vikings the following day.  Near the end of the reception, a friend of the couple sat in with the band and sang I Will Survive, and did a fantastic job!

Alison & Philip’s Wedding at Immaculate Conception & Royal Sonesta

Alison & Philip decided to see each other prior to the ceremony, something more and more couples are doing these days.  In addition to making it possible to get all the formal group shots done before the ceremony, the “first glance” also makes for some wonderful images… I could have done a whole blog post just of those shots!

The ceremony took place at the ornate and beautiful Immaculate Conception church in downtown New Orleans, with the reception at the Royal Sonesta’s elegant ballroom.  Bobby J entertained, and kept the dance floor packed!

Philip is a huge Ferrari fan… in addition to Ferrari cuff links, his groom’s cake was a beautiful rendition of a Ferrari engine!

London & John – Immaculate Conception Church & Latrobe’s, New Orleans – 4/28/07

This very fun and cheerful couple was married at Immaculate Conception church in downtown New Orleans, with a second line to the reception at Latrobe’s, one of the best venues in New Orleans. While most couples choose a slow love song for their first dance, London & John danced to The Beatle’s “When I’m Sixty-Four”. Both of them are doctors, and London convinced Haydel’s Bakery to create one of most impressive groom’s cakes I’ve ever seen, in the form of a doctor’s bag.
