Hey Ladies!
I don't know if you guys already know this, but I wanted to share it with you anyways. When I first started looking into hotels for our wedding I had no idea where to even begin until a friend told me to contact the CVB.
It's amazing!! You just have to fill out a form online or contact Leslie Straughan at lstraughan@neworleanscvb.com or (504) 566-5018. And tons of hotels will contact you directly with their offers. I also talked to Leslie and she was super helpful with everything and she even sent me a nice little wedding packet with a ton of information. The best part of it is that it's totally free!
This is the link I used to submit my info
