Due to the Sugar Bowl and holiday season, we recommend booking your accommodations well in advance. All of our wedding day festivities will be in the French Quarter, so staying in that neighborhood will certainly be convenient. There are numerous hotels in the Quarter, but the CBD (central business district), Marigny, and Tremé directly border the French Quarter. Most neighborhoods are less than 20 minutes to the Quarter by car, so if you want to stay in the Lower Garden District or Uptown, those are great, too! Please let us know if we can help you find accommodations. Don't stay across the lake!
