Just got back from the most unforgettable long weekend in New Orleans 💜⚜️
We stayed right in the heart of the French Quarter—there’s nothing like waking up surrounded by that history and energy. Nights were spent soaking in incredible live music on Frenchmen Street (an absolute must if you love authentic jazz and local vibes 🎶).
We also spent time exploring the New Orleans Jazz Museum—such a great way to dive into the city’s deep musical roots and history. A must-visit if you want to truly understand the soul of New Orleans 🎷
One of our favorite ways to get around was hopping on the New Orleans Streetcar—such a fun and scenic way to see more of the city while soaking in the charm and architecture along the way 🚋
Of course, no trip is complete without beignets from Café du Monde—hot, fresh, and covered in powdered sugar perfection. We also walked Bourbon Street end to end (and then did it again… and again 😄).
The food scene? Unreal. We indulged in all the seafood we could get our hands on, and had hands-down one of the BEST steak dinners ever at Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse.
One of the highlights was touring The Sazerac House—such a cool experience learning the history behind iconic New Orleans cocktails (and yes, the tastings were just as good as you’d imagine 🥃).
New Orleans truly has something for everyone—music, food, culture, and nonstop energy. If a long weekend getaway is calling your name, this city should be at the top of your list!
