“People thought they would choose their house in France, but New Orleans makes so much more sense,” an unnamed source is quoted as telling Britain’s Heat magazine. “They don’t have a permanent place in LA, but they have one in New Orleans. Also, they know how much money will be injected into the city if they wed there.”
Of course, if the couple is planning to wed this summer, they have plenty of other options: There’s a French Chateau, a place in Hawaii and their home in England, where Jolie will be for about a year while filming a new movie.
But Pitt will be in New Orleans for at least part of the summer, as filming begins here on his latest movie, “12 Years A Slave.” And we know the couple's children feel right at home in the Quarter, even while being stalked by out-of-town paparazzi.
“They want to hold it at their … home in the French Quarter — it would be totally private,” the source continued. “New Orleans is easy for their friends to get to. The list includes huge names like George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, Tilda Swinton and Jonah Hill. It’s going to be a big deal.”
Indeed, a Pitt-Jolie wedding would be a big deal for New Orleans, and it would be convenient for the couple and their superstar friends.
Their French Quarter home is close to plenty of star-worthy hotel rooms and the couple’s favorite deli, Verti Marte is just around the corner for those last-minute rice purchases.
Guests could come and go as they please, stumbling from the mansion to nearby bars and restaurants, and famously nonchalant New Orleanians would barely bat an eye.
The couple, who have six children, confirmed their engagement in April after Jolie was seen wearing a humongous ring that Pitt apparently helped design.
