Planners, florists, photographers, caterers and venues across Greater New Orleans, in a city where a wedding routinely involves a second line, a permit and a police escort. Ask early who is arranging the parade permit and the route, because in this market that answer shapes the timeline more than the venue does. Spring and autumn dates go first; nobody sensible books August.

Events & Weddings in New Orleans: questions people ask

How many wedding and event vendors are listed across the New Orleans metro?

38 right now, in New Orleans, Covington, Gretna, LaPlace, Metairie and Belle Chasse. The list grows as businesses are recommended, checked and added.

What makes a business inclusive on Inclusivity.org?

Every listing shows why it is here, with a source you can check: the owner's own statement, a public listing such as a chamber directory, or a recognized certification. Some are owned by the communities they serve and some are allies who welcome everyone. We never list someone's identity without a source.

How early should I book wedding vendors?

Popular venues and photographers can book a year out for peak dates. Planners, caterers and florists usually want several months, and smaller vendors may have more flexibility.

Do vendors travel across the metro?

Many do, often for a travel fee. Ask what the package includes, how far they travel and whether setup and breakdown are part of the price.

Is it free to be listed?

Yes. A basic listing is free, and owners can claim and update theirs at any time. Featured and Enhanced listings get more room on the page, and being listed never depends on them.

How do I suggest a wedding or event vendor that is missing?

Use Recommend a business at the bottom of this page. We research every suggestion, and nothing goes live until it has been checked.

Know a wedding or event vendor we're missing?
