It's a shame that so many people are still unaware of the persisting beauty of the old French Quarter and old river neighborhoods of New Orleans.
Much of the popular New Orleans wedding destinations are still very much in tact, and it is sill one of the most romantic cities in the world. Most fortunately, it's fairly easy to get married in New Orleans, and it can be done within a weekend's time. We offer river view weddings, chapel weddings, Bourbon Street balcony/gallery weddings, Jackson Square weddings, Audobon &City Park weddings, moving carriage weddings, and--Catholics only--the chance to get married in America's oldest operating cathedral. New Orleans doesn't just offer fabulous wedding destinations but also the perfect location to have a lovely honeymoon. Not only does the city have many attractions and gorgeous private locations, but the Port of New Orleans offers the gateway to several romantic cruises as well. Without a doubt, Reverend Talavera of the French Quarter Wedding Chapel can easily arrange a lovely New Orleans wedding for anyone at a very reasonable price. So, if you ever plan to come to New Orleans to get married, the French Quarter Wedding Chapel is one of the best places to go to get married in NOLA. Please keep us in mind. Also, since it may be difficult for an out-of-towner to locate all the correct marriage license info, so I've collected all the 100% correct info for ORLEANS PARISH only: Licenses are issued at: Algiers Courthouse (License & Ceremonies) 225 Morgan St., Room 201, Algiers .....

Both the bride and groom are required to each complete a marriage license application. These forms must be presented by either applicant in person. Age Requirement: If either applicant for a marriage license is under 18 years of age, but more than 16 years of age, the marriage is lawful and a license may be issued if the applicants provide: written consent of both parents, tutor of applicant, person to whom custody of applicant has been awarded, or an order from a judge or juvenile court. If either applicant is under 16 years of age, the marriage is lawful and a license may be issued if the applicants provide: written consent of both parents, tutor of applicant, person to whom custody of applicant has been awarded, AND an order from a judge of juvenile court. General Information: A Louisiana marriage license is valid in any parish in Louisiana for a period of 30 days from issuance. There is a 72-hour waiting period between the time of issuance of the license and the ceremony. The waiting period can be waived by any officiant (including Rev. Talavera) in Orleans Parish (ONLY ORLEANS). Newlyweds should order a certified copy of their marriage license two weeks after the marriage to ensure that the license has been returned and recorded.
