It’s no secret that in New Orleans we love to celebrate. We embrace classic style mixed seamlessly with of-the-moment trends and boast hundreds of years of practice doing just so. After countless grand celebrations we have mastered the art of entertaining – from storied, one-of-a-kind venues to some of the most talented planners, florists, chefs and industry professionals in the world.
It is an honor and a privilege to sign on as editor of New Orleans Bride, stepping into the stylish and smart shoes of former editor Melanie Warner Spencer. Melanie’s reign made the publication what it is today, and we plan to continue to keep you informed about the most current wedding trends and topics of interest.
We could not be more thrilled to bring you this season’s must-have fashion modeled by exquisite ballet masters Joshua Reynolds and Jo-Ann Sundermeier, both principal dancers with the New Orleans Ballet Theatre. To say this photo shoot was a treat would be the understatement of the year. Witnessing the natural grace and elegance of these two in their element was a sight to behold. Be sure to catch them on stage as well.
