II · THE CELEBRATION
Saturday, November sixth
An evening at
The Marigny House.
THE COURTYARD
Arrival & aperitifs
Enter through the Dauphine Street gate. Champagne will be waiting beneath the balcony.
THE GARDEN
The ceremony
We’ll exchange vows as the last light settles over the house.
THE PARLOR
Dinner by candlelight
A New Orleans supper served throughout the candlelit rooms.
THE BALLROOM
Music into midnight
First dance, second line, and one very full dance floor.
A house with
a long memory.
The Marigny House is a fictional 1840s residence with a shaded courtyard, wrought-iron galleries, and rooms that glow after dark. We chose it because it feels less like a venue and more like a beautiful secret.

Deep color, rich texture, elegant tailoring. Velvet, silk, satin, and polished suiting are all welcome. The celebration moves between the garden and historic interiors; bring a layer for the courtyard.
