NOLA Suggestions for friend looking to propose

There is a cemetary across the street.

FYI. If it is night time all the public parks are closed. Audubon and The Fly actually enforce this. City Park has some places (Museum and Peristyle), but can also get packed, but other than the Peristyle and morning call it is technically illegal to be in the park.

At night on the levee in front of the cathedral?

Anywhere in the quarter could be quickly ruined by bums and drunks. But, it will probably be perfect in the end.

If they leave Commanders take the streetcar up to Tulane/Audubon park and you can probably walk to one of the fountains with little trouble.

Always thought Exchange Place by Pelican Club was really nice.

I proposed at the columns hotel before dinner at commanders. So far so good

Proposed at the Chefs bar at Emerils .. Ain’t Dey no more, at least the old one on the right.

Around 3am in one of the dark alleys right off bourbon.

What about a place for a celebratory cocktail after?

Hot Tin for proposal & celebration

That's what I told him

Should be plenty of privacy in the courtyard after dinner

I proposed before dinner. Told her that my Dad wanted to take us somewhere really nice and he had news to tell us. I speculated he was going to tell us he was getting married so she would be thinking about that instead of possible proposal. We had been dating for 7 years and I had a few months in at my career job so she could have been suspicious.

Had two glasses printed with "Will you Marry Me?" and the date. Proposed at my apartment. Then took her to her Mom's house to see the ring and congratulate her (set it up before).

Then we had a nice dinner at the Grill Room. After dinner, I had her friends meet us at the bar in the hotel.

My advice is do the proposal before dinner. Takes a lot of stress away!
