Cristina & Teredane’s Surprise Elopement in New Orleans

Teredane pulled off an impressive feat… he proposed to Cristina while they were in town (from the Phillipines) for a convention, and married her that same afternoon!  Of course, it wasn’t (from his perspective) a spur of the moment thing, as much planning and preparation with Sue from Beth’s Flowers went into making it happen (and as you might imagine, preparing for a wedding – even a small elopement – without the bride knowing about it, is extraordinarily tricky!).  The couple got ready at the St. James Hotel on Magazine Street, where they also shared their first look, and then went next door to the Board of Trade’s spacious and elegant courtyard for the ceremony, before a horse-drawn carriage whisked them away for dinner at Muriels to finish of the romantic evening.
