Indoor Bridal Portrait Locations?

sammyjames

Hey all --

Any suggestions for pretty INDOOR bridal portrait areas?  I love the idea of City Park, but I know me.  My white dress won't leave outdoors white.  :P  I'm a total klutz, and after alterations, I don't think I'll have time to get it re-cleaned and re-floofed before the wedding.  I'm also January, so slightly worried the normal outside places won't be as pretty as usual.

Also, not a big French Quarter person either.  So, any thoughts? 

Alternative is to do post-wedding pictures with new hubby in our wedding get-up wherever we want.

We are doing some at the Omni

La Pavillion Hotel is gorgeous! I'd probably go there. Infact, I might go there

I'm no help on indoor locations.  But I did want to say my engagement photos were done on one of the coldest January days in recenty memony outside at Colisieum Square.  I think they turned out beautifully, and while the square wasn't really lush and green, the photos did turn out beautifully.  So if you want outside, don't be afraid of staying out, even in January.

I did mine at the Omni and they came out beautiful.  Any of the old hotels are GORGEOUS!  Especially the Cornstalk!!

Thanks all!!  I'm looking at the Omni now--forgot how GORGEOUS it is!  Any paperwork or fees to take pictures there?  Definitely might go with them. 

And thanks Dorothy!  I'm still kind of toying with Longue Vue, so if the Omni or Le Pavillon falls through, I'll keep outdoors in mind!

Love you guys.  Thank you!

I took my bridals at Longue Vue last December. It was cold but everything there was still beautiful, and the pictures turned out great!

Especially if your gown is white, it will be fine, just take it to the cleaners and they can work miracles getting spots out.  I got a sample gown and it had several smudges when I bought it but looked good as new after a $30 dry cleaning.  So don't stress over that :-)
