Real Weddings: Lauren + Ryan

In the wake of Mardi Gras, what better to show off than a classic New Orleans wedding?  Lauren and Ryan’s wedding was held in the heart of the city at the New Orleans City Park, and the sweet, simple details are brightening my day.  In true New Orleans fashion, as they walked from the ceremony site to the reception, a solo violinist played “All You Need is Love” softly, until their band picked up halfway through and rocked out the song, setting the mood for the party!  MQ Photography captured all of these lovely images, and the beautiful florals were created by Les Deux Soeurs.  Lauren, thanks for sharing your special day with us!
