Step One: Find A Place
Are you as shocked as I was that there are so many options for this many people?
I was shocked to find such a cool place that can sleep all of us in a FABULOUS location for the price point! With as many people we have, it could make an entire mansion totally affordable.
Les Carillons - Arts District Gem
This place is seriously insane and so close to the French Quarter! And it COMES WITH A PARTY BUS!
Fleur De Lis Mansion
Y'all WHAT! I was shocked to find this incredible place in my city. I appreciate so much the way they decorated each room to truly honor New Orleans.
The Syd - Swamp to City
Another option that blew me away! Less personality, but very refined design. Higher in price, but in my opinion, that reflects easily through how elegant everything is.
Dazzling Historic Designer Space
I thought that this company was pretty cool and offered an elevated version of a hotel for large groups! Lots of offerings here!
Roami at Motorworks - New Orleans Central Business District
Step Two: Plan The Eats
Obviously the most important part.
One of my favorite neighborhood bars with a huge space (including a private part of the patio for free rental!!) Perfect place to visit with a bunch of women who have never tried boiled crawfish! They boil seasonally, and provide a relaxed and chill ...
Bayou Beer Garden (Mid City)
An ICONIC New Orleans Institution. Options for lunch, brunch, or dinner. The Jazz Brunch held every Saturday & Sunday is celebratory tradition in New Orleans. They offer private spaces for larger parties.
Commander's Palace
Great for lunch, brunch, and dinner. Huge and unforgettable courtyard. The brunch is buffet style (but still classy and upscale) and that was a good choice made by this restaurant.
The Court of Two Sisters
New Orleans trips always call for amazing poboys! Established in 1911 and consistent as heck! People line up in any weather condition for a reason! Large tented outdoor space to accommodate so don't worry about not having reservations!
Parkway Bakery and Tavern
French Style Bakery on Magazine Street. Great for breakfast and light lunch! Yay bread!
La Boulangerie
If you've never had a beignet or have never heard of a beignet, don't think…. just do. Located in the French Quarter and the dessert that just keeps on giving, as more than likely you'll carry powdered sugar on your clothes for the rest of the day.
Cafe Du Monde
Step Three: The To Dos
Events are held every single day in New Orleans, you'll never miss the party.
One of my favorite festivals held in April every year in the middle of the french quarter. Completely free with stages and live music & events & (more) food spread throughout the quarter.
French Quarter Fest
Everyone LOVES swamp tours. Take the opportunity to ride an airboat in the swamp and hold an alligator.
New Orleans Swamp Tour
Skip Bourbon Street!! Trust me! Frenchmen is where it is at. Three blocks of live music venues that are mostly available at no cover charge! Music pours into the street from every door, and you feel the heart and soul of the city here.
Frenchmen Street, a Block-by-Block Guide
A gorgeous and special place. You enter into a beautiful room filled with wine and charcuterie for you to pick. They put it all together for you while you find your way out to the eclectic patio with a stage for live music. A wonderful way to spend a...
Bacchanal Wine
A good way to get around & a unique experience important to New Orleans.
The Streetcar
Step Four: Make the Gift Bags
