HOW MUCH DOES A LUXURY NEW ORLEANS WEDDING COST?

 

A wedding can potentially cost as much or as little as your budget allows.

Just about every couple I work with underestimates the price tag for their dream wedding or event. Even couples with substantial budgets often underestimate what is required to bring an elaborate event to life.

The overall budget can vary greatly depending on loads of variables:

  • Venue

  • Guest count

  • Event length

  • Menu + Beverage specifics

  • Design elements

  • Table, chair and linen rentals

  • Entertainment

  • Photographer

  • Videographer

  • Transportation

  • Invitations and all printed materials

  • Little details like customized specialty items and welcome gifts

But the minimum estimated cost for a luxury wedding in New Orleans based on 100 guests lands around $100,000 or $1,000 per guest.

It is very important in the beginning of the planning process to have a realistic understanding of costs and identify the maximum amount you are comfortable spending.Once that is determined the planning can begin!
