Coming This Saturday!!!

🎃 The Darkest Wedding of the Year: Bride of Swampus is Coming to Haunt New Orleans This Saturday! 🎃

Attention, all you spooky, twisted souls out there! Get your ghastly gowns and swamp-soaked tuxes ready because this Saturday, October 5, 2024, is bringing us the wedding event of the year—Bride of Swampus: The Dark Wedding! And trust me, this is no Pinterest-perfect ceremony. We’re talking an unholy union dripping in eerie elegance, dark humor, and creepy swamp vibes, all taking place at The Broadside on 600 N Broad Ave in New Orleans. You do not want to miss it!

I’m Karen Brem, marketing director extraordinaire for the New Orleans Guest House, and I’m here to personally invite you to experience the hair-raising fun. Don’t worry about being late to the reception—this creepy party kicks off at 7:00 PM, with the real spine-tingling action beginning at 7:30. And honey, if you’re showing up without a costume, well… let’s just say the Swamp Creature might personally deal with you. 👀

What to Expect at This Sinister Soirée 👻

What happens when the Krewe of Krampus decides to throw a wedding? Absolute chaos. This is not your grandma’s traditional “I do” scenario. Imagine a sinister swamp creature, fresh from the bog, dragging his spine-chilling bride down the aisle in what can only be described as the creepiest wedding of the century. And guess what? You’re not just watching—oh no, darling—you’re part of the show. This wedding isn’t for the faint-hearted; it’s interactive, and we all know what that means: expect the unexpected.

Will the guests (that’s you!) get cursed? Will the bride make it through the vows without turning into something monstrous? Who knows?! One thing’s for sure—there’ll be dark laughs, gothic glamor, and enough chills to make your bones rattle. Think Tim Burton, but with a lot more unholy matrimony and a lot fewer happy endings. 👰‍♀️🦎

And did I mention there’s a VIP area? Yes, darlings, they’ve created The Haunted Swamp just for those of you who like to mix your terror with a dash of luxury. Perfect for groups of six to ten, so gather your fellow dark-hearted friends and get those tickets fast! Prices range from $35 (for the mortals) to $325 (for the truly brave souls), depending on your party size and how deep into the haunted waters you’re willing to wade.

Tickets and pricing are available at www.eventbrite.com and trust me, you’ll want to grab those yesterday if you’re planning to experience this one-of-a-kind spooky wedding!

Dress Code: Swamp Couture Meets Goth Formal 💀

Let’s talk about the real fun: what you’re going to wear! This is no ordinary costume party—no basic witch outfits here. We’re talking Swamp Creative Couture or Goth Formal. Channel your inner Creature from the Black Lagoon, add a splash of Victorian goth elegance, and boom—you’re ready to steal the show (just try not to upstage the bride). Pro tip: the more dramatic, the better. Go ahead and bathe yourself in fog and eerie accessories—this is the night to pull out all the spooky stops.

If you’re still figuring out your look, think dripping moss, swampy greens, dark velvets, and just a hint of “I might crawl back into the bayou after this.” And honey, no one’s judging you if you go over the top—this event is all about being fabulously dark and over-the-top!

Stay with Us—If You Dare! 👹

Now, if you’re coming into town for the Bride of Swampus, why not book your stay with us at the New Orleans Guest House?

Call us, book online, whatever it takes—just make sure you’ve got a place to crash after this terrifyingly fun night. You don’t want to end up lost in the swamp!
