Our wedding at Chateau was nothing short of phenomenal. We had our ceremony and reception here, and I wouldn’t change a single thing. We were able to take photos on the golf course before the ceremony and it was gorgeous during golden hour! We loved that our guests didn’t need to drive to a different location between the ceremony and reception. All of the staff are amazing. My husband and I were catered to all night and our drinks were never empty. The food was delicious and the drinks were great too. We loved having the tables, chairs, table cloths, other decor, food, drinks, and more all provided for us. Some venues were charging per table and chair and requiring caterers for food and drinks, so it really made everything much easier to have it all provided by the venue. Any time we had questions leading up to the wedding, the staff was so helpful. I hardly had to worry about a single thing when it came to the venue, because Chateau handled it all for us. I could go on and on about how amazing everything was, but just take my word for it: it was AMAZING. Look no further!!

A business built on creativity, culture, and connection. Ashanti crafts custom cakes and treats for special events that go far beyond the typical dessert table. Known for her bold flavor combinations, intricate designs, and culturally inspired creations, every piece is a personal, edible story tailored to each client. The raw, unfiltered joy that comes from seeing someone’s face light up at that first bite or first glance. That’s what drives her, every single time. Whether it’s a wedding, milestone birthday, or intimate celebration, Ashanti isn’t just baking, she’s helping people celebrate life, one unforgettable treat at a time.

Ador A Treat feels like stepping into a cozy, sugar-dusted dream. From the welcoming owner to the customer service makes you feel like a friend and part of the family before you even take your first bite. But let’s talk about the treats. Their signature cupcakes are the real stars—moist, rich, and topped with just the right amount of frosting. The red velvet is a must-try: deep cocoa flavor with a tangy cream cheese swirl that melts on your tongue. I also tried their cookie dough stuffed brownies, and I still can't stop thinking about them—decadent, gooey, and perfectly over-the-top. They clearly take pride in their ingredients and presentation. Everything is beautifully packaged and thoughtfully made, making it a great spot for gifts, parties, or just a well-deserved self-indulgence. Customer service is just as sweet as their desserts. The staff is friendly, helpful, and genuinely excited to talk about what’s fresh or seasonal. They even offered great recommendations based on my taste. Whether you’re planning a celebration or just want to treat yourself, Ador A Treat lives up to its name—and then some.

My name is Kelsey and I want to take your picture! With my father being a photographer of 30+ years, I befriended the camera at the young age of three. I fell in love with how one photo captures a moment that forever brings us back in time over and over again. How precious it is to relive a special moment or day in time! It's been five years since I began pursuing photography. I founded my business on three principles: versatility, diversity and authenticity! It's these three principles that help me cultivate photos that mean something.

I cannot recommend Visual Society enough! As a Louisiana local, I was beyond impressed when she traveled all the way to Washington state to capture our wedding. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and incredible talent completely blew us away. She made both my husband and me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process—it felt like we were hanging out with a friend who also happened to be creating pure magic behind the camera. The photos she delivered are nothing short of breathtaking. Every moment, every emotion, and every little detail was captured so beautifully. She has such an amazing ability to make you feel seen and understood, which shines through in her work. These are memories we will cherish forever, and we have Kelsey to thank for that. If you’re looking for someone to not only meet but exceed your expectations, she’s the one!

Andrew Alwert Studios 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Harahan, LA

Andrew Alwert Studios is a professional photography studio. Our mission is to create timeless art through a documentary-style approach using medium format film and digital photography. We produce colorful content and enjoy connecting with every client we work with on a personal and professional level.

Andrew isn’t just a photographer—he’s an artist, a professional, and someone who became a true friend throughout our wedding journey. We originally hired Andrew as part of our New Orleans wedding dream team. I found him by going through tagged photos of our original venue—while most looked similar (lots of light and airy styles), every time a photo stood out to me as creative, candid, moody, or just flat-out cool… it was always one of Andrew’s. I knew I had to have him. I was thrilled when he was available for our big day—and even more blown away when he was excited to pivot with us when our plans completely changed. After we found out we were expecting a baby—and due the same week as our NOLA wedding—we made the tough decision to cancel the original event. We rescheduled everything on a tight timeline and relocated the wedding to Massachusetts. Andrew didn’t hesitate. He was all in, genuinely enthusiastic, and just as committed to making the new plan feel special. He made the long trip to MA with the most positive energy and attitude, and from start to finish, he made the process so fun. He and my planner Donna instantly clicked—they truly partnered up and helped bring our reimagined wedding to life. Watching them work together felt like magic. Andrew’s photography style is incredible. He has such range—editorial, moody, candid, light and airy—he blends them in a way that feels completely unique. His shots never feel staged or predictable; they’re emotional, rich, and full of life. He gave us just enough direction to get gorgeous, creative shots, while also encouraging us to interact naturally. It was the perfect balance. My husband hates taking pictures—he’s normally wide-eyed and frozen or giving a fake smile. But Andrew completely changed that. He made him feel relaxed and confident, and the difference in the photos was unreal. Every shot looked natural and joyful. We did both our engagement shoot and wedding with Andrew, and my husband—who initially grumbled about even hiring a photographer—ended up loving working with him. On top of all that, Andrew was incredibly professional, communicative, and responsive the entire way through. And somehow, despite all the stress of replanning a wedding in 12 weeks, he kept us grounded and laughing the whole time. One of my favorite moments he captured was this Beatles-style shot of us crossing the street—it was creative, playful, and so us. Everyone who’s seen it has commented on how cool it is. Andrew didn’t just deliver photos—he delivered art and a genuinely amazing experience. I can’t imagine having had anyone else by our side. Book him while you can.
