Just a few comments:

The wedding was awesome.
Props to Marriott for the awesome view out our hotel room. Overlooked the causeway over Lake Ponchartrain. Got pics that we'll upload eventually.
The weather was great. Which means it's gonna be a nightmare in July/August. Blech.
Food - INSANELY good. Just make sure you don't overdo it. An hour before you get on the plane.
Unless the price difference is THAT much, go ahead and bite the bullet and fly into New Orleans rather than flying into Baton Rouge and driving. The drive isn't THAT bad, but Baton Rouge is worse than New Orleans.
New Orleans roads are still a disaster to navigate. When in doubt, TRUST THE GPS. Or, better yet, print out the damn map. And don't argue with your wife about where you're trying to go. It's not worth it.
