A celebration crafted for the bold

We curate completely a la carte, high-end alternative gatherings. Because each ceremony involves bespoke artisan catering, live entertainment, and tattoo artistry, all bookings must be reserved at least ninety days in advance.

 

Add an unforgettable, dramatic flourish to your reception with The Green Fairy Fire Bar—an interactive, Victorian-inspired absinthe experience steeped in New Orleans tradition. Known as la fée verte, this historic botanical spirit combines old-world romance with theatrical tableside flames, giving your guests a signature toast they will talk about long after the last dance.

What Is Included

  • Curated Absinthe Selection: Premium, authentic verte (emerald green) and blanche (crystal clear) absinthes distilled from the classic "Holy Trinity" of grand wormwood, green anise, and sweet fennel—completely sugar-free and crafted in the traditional 18th-century Swiss and French style.
  • The Bohemian Fire Ritual  Our dedicated absinthe sommelier pours a measure of high-proof absinthe into vintage-style reservoir glasses, balances a perforated silver spoon holding an absinthe-soaked sugar cube across the rim, and ignites the sugar cube into a mesmerizing blue flame. Once caramelized, the flaming sugar is plunged into the glass and extinguished with a slow pour of ice-cold water.
  • The Louche Spectacle: As the chilled water meets the botanicals, guests watch the emerald spirit transform before their eyes into an opalescent, milky cloud—releasing fragrant notes of wild herbs, mint, and star anise while softening the spirit into a smooth, refreshing sip.
  • Custom Sazerac & Cocktail Enhancements: For guests who prefer a classic New Orleans twist, our bartenders also offer absinthe-rinsed Sazeracs, Death in the Afternoon champagne coupes, and Corpse Reviver No. 2 cocktails.

Decadent details and dark elegance

Our signature micro-weddings immerse you and your inner circle in an unforgettable atmosphere. Enjoy chilled beer served straight from an authentic wooden coffin, decadent pours of artisanal absinthe, and a sculpted coffin wedding cake crafted by New Orleans' finest pastry talents. From floral installations to alternative costume attire, no boundary goes unpushed.
