I met Erica and Brian at the Starlight bar deep in the heart of the French Quarter. When they finished their drinks, we went for a photo stroll. Once we got back to The Starlight, about 20 of their favorite people were gathered to greet them before the ceremony.

The couple rented out the entire upstairs bar and the ceremony was held beside the balcony doors. Their close friends officiated as the rest gathered around the room. Everybody laughed and cried happy tears as Erica and Brian read their vows. Right after the I do’s, they started the first dance, and everyone quickly joined in. We had a short cocktail hour and one big photo op of the group on the balcony. When the second line band arrived, the group poured into the street and started to parade around. Funnily enough, we happened to run into another second line where the two newlyweds hugged and congratulated each other. The second line band brought us to Sylvain where Erica and Brian hosted their intimate reception.
