What is your favorite thing about each other? Share a personal story.
I love Shawn’s sense of humor. He is very calm and funny. Lori is very organized.

Where was your ceremony held and why did you pick this site?
A friend suggested St. Augustine Church in New Orleans. After attending one service, we knew it was the perfect place to have our ceremony.

Where was your Reception held and why did you pick this site?
We chose the Arbor Room because it had a beautiful modern feel and was located in City Park.

What unique or special things did you do at the reception?
We had a 2nd line band, Zulu Tramps, and Mardi Gras Indians. It was a perfect ending. Everyone loved it.

Pick one moment in the day that was your favorite thing?
I loved seeing Shawn for the first time at the ceremony. He looked at me and said you are beautiful. I also loved looking at Shawn’s shoes and noticing his bright yellow socks.
Shawn loved everything. He cannot simply pick one favorite thing.

Did it really go by as quickly as everyone says?
Yes, yes, yes. It really does go by in a flash so enjoy it. And please do not stress.

What was the inspiration behind picking the color palette and decor that you picked?
I love pinks and purples. I could not pick between a light or dark color palette. Therefore, I decided to incorporate both with ombré themes.

What was your first dance song? Why this song?
It was Adorn by Miguel. It’s a song we both love.
