Two families accompanied by close friends traveled from parts all over to celebrate the love and marriage of Natasha and Brian in a 143 year old mansion located in the heart of the garden district in New Orleans known as the Elms Mansion. It was the perfect setting for their beautiful and joyous celebration. A second line, led by New Orleans’ best The Kinfolk Brass Band, started the party off right with a tradition unique only to New Orleans as revelers stomped and paraded down St. Charles underneath the century old oak trees. Natasha’s mother regaled guests with stories of her pregnancy with Natasha during the Chernobyl disaster and other hilarious as well as sentimental personal stories. The party continued with an awesome hora that had nearly everyone in attendance ending up in a chair high above everyone’s head.
