    What kind of Church?  I am getting married at St. Joseph Catholic Church on Tulane Ave (must be Catholic to get married in the Catholic Church).  They don't have any kind of dress code for the bride or attendants.  They are on the pricier side though, $2200.  Holy Name of Jesus on St. Charles Ave does not have a dress code either and they are more affordable.  From what I remember, it was $1600 or so when my friend got married there last year.

    if your catholic you may want to try St. Stephen's on Napolean or St. Francis near Audobon park. St. Anthony's on canal is also beautiful.
    Also, I'd look at St. John (with the golden onion on the steeple) :)

    St. Theresa of Avila on Erato St. right off of St. Charles is where I had mine.  It was only $300.  The church is the oldest in New Orleans and is orante, but on a smaller scale.  The priest was very flexible to work with and I was so happy to have picked it.  My guests were impressed and many didn't even know the church though we are locals. There were no restictions on what I could wear or bring.

    im getting married at St.John the Baptist and being that they aren't open for masses anymore (just funerals and weddings) you can have your wedding at any time you want, wear whatever you want, have as many people as you want in your wedding party, and the flower girl and ring bearer and be whatever age you want. The inside of the church is absolutely gorgeous! it's $1600 which is on the lower price range for the churches in the area. trust me, i went to literally every one to check them out! good luck!
