Degas House Wedding starring Andrea & Polo

From the Windy City to the lively streets of New Orleans (their favorite city, hands down!), Andrea and Polo brought their Chicago cool to the historic Degas House for a late October wedding that was as trendy as it gets.

A second line down Esplanade Ave, courtesy of the Kinfolk Brass Band, kicked off the celebration. DJ Belonge kept the beats rolling, turning the dance floor into a hotspot. Andrea and Polo didn't just throw a wedding; they threw a party to remember.

Major props to Ashley Bupp of A Bupp Event for making it all happen seamlessly. She turned their vision into a reality, ensuring every detail was on point.

Andrea and Polo made a stylish, Instagram-worthy exit, surrounded by sparklers and hopping into a classic Mustang convertible.

Every detail reflected their personalities. As they drove off in that classic Mustang, it was clear – this was a love story that knows how to make an exit. Cheers to Andrea and Polo, the coolest couple in town!

New Orleans Weddings before the time of Covid-19, featuring Allison and Cody.

We closed 2019 out not knowing that this would have been one of the last full weddings we would ever photograph, at least for the foreseeable future. It’s weird to think that the way we celebrate love has fundamentally changed, whether we like it or not, and we’re incredibly thankful that we have been able to experience such amazing events, especially when they are often with our amazing clients and friends, like Allison and Cody, whose wedding we will certainly not forget.

We will always cherish these times that we’ve taken for granted and we’re beyond thankful for all the couples, families, and events that have rocked our socks off and left us picking ourselves up off the floor the next day. There may be a real possibility that we may never get to be a part of another wedding where the dance floor is slammed with friends and family elbow to elbow sweating it out on top of each other, or where we parade through the streets with an entire city in tow.

New Orleans Destination Wedding at Brennan's - Kelsey & Justin

One of the most enticing things about New Orleans is it’s charm, but the one thing nobody really tells you about, is what that charm actually is.

Some folks believe it’s the old world architecture, the food, and the sort of laissez faire attitude that us residents tend to live by. Those things are all charming, and they definitely are part of the makeup of New Orleans, but what that charm actually is, is it’s people. The way our city bands together in times of happiness and strife, the way it’s people make you feel at home by inviting you in and making you feel like you belong, like you’re just part of the family.

It’s the welcoming arms of the city and it’s unbeatable food that brought Kelsey and Justin back down to New Orleans with their all of the closest friends and family in tow for an all out beautiful celebration deep in the heart of New Orleans. They fell in love with how the city embraced them and made them feel welcome. Their guests felt the same and everyone threw care into the wind and had a long, fun night of dancing and celebrating the love between these two. We love when people love New Orleans.
