You have to hear the story of Lizzie and Travis! After their moms tried to set them up for a while, these two found heir way to each other. After that first weekend, they were inseparable. Every moment of this wedding weekend at il Mercato was magical and we were so happy to share in the second family wedding with these wonderful families. Antigua Floral and Luminous Events led by Iris and Oak Events had Il Mercato dripping in florals and candles. Cheers to a lifetime of adventures for these sweet souls!

There's nothing quite like a love story that blooms amidst flowers, and Lizzie and Travis's wedding at the Il Mercato in New Orleans was a stunning testament to this. The historic venue was transformed into a botanical paradise, creating a spectacular setting for the couple's special day.
