    1920s Paris and New Orleans Wedding Inspiration and Ideas

    There’s usually an intense level of romance floating along with most people’s visions of Paris, New Orleans, and the era of the 1920s. With these romantic notions in mind Britney and Holly, the talented photography team at Magnolia Pair decided to create a fabulous wedding inspiration shoot in the French Quarter of New Orleans. “The idea for the shoot came to us after watching Midnight in Paris. The film does an incredible job of carrying you away to 1920s Paris. The mood and color palette are almost dreamy. From that, we wanted to create an aesthetic that could inspire present-day brides to incorporate those dreamy ideas from the 1920s into their wedding day.” Together with Elyse from Tying the Knot, Britney and Holly created a shoot filled with vintage wedding fashion, Sazerac cocktails, and that distinct New Orleans vibe!
