Fall is here y'all and it finally feels like it in New Orleans! We have been shooting a ton of gorgeous events and are so excited to share some new Bride Film couples with you. First up, a flashback to this past summer with our friends, Jeanne and Eric. They held their wedding at the Jesuit Chapel of the North American Martyrs and the City Park Pavilion of Two Sisters. They had a long engagement, so they were super pumped to finally have the big day arrive. We also captured Eric proposing to Jeanne in Tiger Stadium. Wow was that awesome. Both big LSU fans (like us!), Eric decided to surprise Jeanne as they had the entire stadium to themselves. Check out some of those fun photos below!
Come wedding weekend, we had a blast documenting the celebration with both photo and film! Jeanne and Eric met at MDA Camp Sunshine, where they have both volunteered every summer for well over ten years. Eric was attracted to Jeanne's enthusiasm and ability to bring such joy to the campers she loved so much. Many a romance has blossomed at camp, but Jeanne and Eric made it official at the camp after party at FnMs Patio Bar. Only the best romances start over delicious cheese fries (the bride's and our own favorite) and Justin Timberlake jams from this New Orleans institution.
We cried our way through all of the touching speeches at their rehearsal dinner at Southport Hall on Thursday...you'll hear the touching story of how these two were meant to be. Come Saturday, we met the bridal party at the Westin Canal Place downtown for prepping and champagne popping. Despite a typical random New Orleans downpour, the sun came out in full force as everyone headed to Jesuit for their ceremony. After officially becoming husband and wife. the party began at City Park where the dance floor was literally packed the entire night.
We’re so happy these two found each other and had an absolute blast with them. You’ll definitely want to grab the tissues for this emotional Bride Film and also make sure to check our Jeanne’s beautiful bridal photos we did earlier this year.
