20 Tree of Life Elopement Ceremonies That Will Completely Wow You

Anyone who is considering a New Orleans elopement ceremony knows that there is seemingly no shortage of stunning locations to celebrate the occasion. But, while The Big Easy packs a ton of southern charm into one single city, there is a particular spot that stands out time and time again: the Tree of Life in Audubon Park. Nestled in the heart of the city, the Tree of Life (also known as Étienne de Boray Oak) is the perfect spot to hold hands with the one you love and recite your vows to each other. A Tree of Life wedding — or elopement — has a lot going for itself: it can be much cheaper to have your ceremony here than a traditional wedding venue, and you can have chairs and other wedding details so long as you have a permit. But the biggest reason of all to have a Tree of Life elopement? It’s undeniable, unmistakable beauty. Check out these 20 stunning Tree of Life wedding ceremonies below, and we promise you’ll soon be hooked on this location yourself.
