New Orleans Wedding at The Elms | Annabelle + Thierry

Married in May, Annabelle and Thierry’s New Orleans wedding was a beguiling blend of southern charm and black tie! The day began with Annabelle getting dressed at home with help from her sweet pups, mom, and bridesmaids. Then she floated outdoors for a first look with Thierry, who, like us, was blown away with how beautiful she looked in her custom Lea-Ann Belter gown!

Their ceremony took place at the Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church, setting the tone for a day filled with love and tradition. Annabelle was the picture of elegance in her form-fitting gown, which was draped in the bodice and flared out at fingertip. The detachable balloon sleeves added a touch of drama and whimsy, while her headband and veil added to the classic feel of their vows.

The wedding reception was held at The Elms Mansion and spilled into the venue’s lovely garden, which was outfitted with romantic string lights and a luxe lounge area in the gazebo!
