Our wedding and reception will take place at the historic Rosy's Jazz Hall, built in 1855. Once a legendary music venue, it was host to greats such as Dizzy Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald, Count Basie, Stevie Wonder, and many more.

The jazz hall is located at 500 Valence, at the corner of Tchoupitoulas, in Uptown New Orleans.

Our reception will feature appetizers, passed hors d'ouevers, and some of New Orleans classic comfort foods, along with an open bar.

We opted for an untraditional wedding registry so that we can take a much deserved vacation. This registry will help fund our dream honeymoon to Costa  Rica. By clicking on the 'our registry' link above, it will take you to the website set up to allow folks to help us fund our honeymoon.

We are tallying the head count of people who need a ride as the RSVP's come in. Stay tuned for more details.
