Bourbon balcony bride toss

Bourbon Street is famous for its wrought-iron balconies. Find one with great character and take a group photo posing as if the bride is about to throw beads from the balcony above (or as if catching them from below).

Cathedral bride pose

St. Louis Cathedral is the oldest cathedral in continuous use in the US. Take a group photo on Jackson Square with the three white spires behind you, the bride in a sash or tiara at the centre.

Hurricane toast for the bride

A Hurricane is the iconic NOLA cocktail. Find a spot with French Quarter charm, order Hurricanes (or any festive drink) and take a group toast photo with the bride leading. To the future Mrs.!

Jazz on the street with the bride

Jazz was born in New Orleans. Find any street musician, drop a tip and take a group photo with the bride dancing next to the musician. Bonus if everyone in the team is dancing too.

Local NOLA tip for the bride

Convince a real New Orleanian to share one favourite restaurant, hidden gem or piece of bachelorette advice. Take a photo with your impromptu guide and remember the tip.

Mardi Gras bead bride

NOLA is bead country year-round. Find any beads (in a tree, a shop, or buy a strand) and take a group photo where the bride is decorated like she is the queen of the parade.

Mississippi waterfront bridal shot

The Mississippi curves around New Orleans. Walk to the Moonwalk waterfront and take a group photo with the river behind you, the bride centred in a sash or tiara, and ideally a passing steamboat in shot.

Po' boy bridal share

A po' boy is the New Orleans sandwich (shrimp, oyster or roast beef on French bread). Find one at any deli, share it with the team and take a photo where the bride takes the first bite.

Recreate the bride's wildest moment (NOLA)

Everyone knows that one legendary night out. Imitate the bride at her most wild moment ever. One person plays her, the rest directs, capture it in a photo or short video. Best impression wins.

Second line for the bride

New Orleans is the home of the second line, where everyone dances behind a brass band. Form your own mini second line: the bride leads, the team dances behind her, capture it in a photo or short video.

Streetcar shot with the bride

New Orleans streetcars rumble through the city (the St. Charles line is the oldest continuous streetcar in the world). Find a streetcar and take a group photo with the bride waving from in front, like she is heading to the wedding.
