NEED HELP. We are planning a 11-3-2012 courtyard wedding in New Orleans for 50 people. All we want is a ceremony followed by a cocktail recption with appetizers. Our budget is $5,000-$6,000. So far all places are like $10,000-$20,000 with 100 people minimums. Is this not a possible thing to do in New Orleans? It has become so stressful we are on the verge of calling it off! Has anyone been to or had a small wedding in New Orleans?
