The Monastery New Orleans wedding video with Bre’lan and Kael
Kael and Bre’lan were introduced to one another in April of 2008 through a mutual high school friend, Louis Gerdes. The following evening, Kael asked for an opportunity to spend time with Bre’lan again. On the couple’s first date they saw ‘What Happens in Vegas’ at the movies, followed by beignets downtown. The date led to daily runs for snoballs, and the rest is history. Kael and Bre’lan became a couple.
On November 15, 2014, Kael asked Bre’lan to join him for dinner with his supervisor at Emeril’s NOLA Restaurant. Before arriving at the restaurant, Kael explained to Bre’lan that his supervisor coordinated the attendees to ride the horse and carriage through the French Quarter. Kael told Bre’lan that since they were running late, they would take the ride by themselves. After the carriage ride, Kael and Bre’lan arrived at NOLA Restaurant. Kael briefly addressed the carriage driver and escorted Bre’lan out of the carriage. Before the two could enter the restaurant, Kael dropped to one knee and asked for Bre’lan’s hand in marriage. NOLA Restaurant was one of the first restaurants Kael and Bre’lan visited in their relationship to celebrate Bre’lan’s birthday. Following the proposal, Kael and Bre’lan shared dinner with family who were outside of the restaurant to witness the proposal.
