In New Orleans, some things are best said without words, especially around February 14. This Valentine’s Day, you can let the music do the talking for you at a stunning Candlelight concert. Imagine holding your love’s hand as a string quartet plays a moving arrangement of Your Song, the notes echoing what’s in your heart.
Candlelight Valentine’s Day in New Orleans at Hotel Peter and Paul

The historic Hotel Peter and Paul, a former church and convent in the Marigny, provides a truly special setting for this experience. Its soaring ceilings and reverent quiet create a sanctuary where the outside world fades away, leaving just you, your love, and the glow of countless candles. It’s a space that encourages you to be present, to simply listen and feel.
Depending on the kind of moment you want to share, the music sets the tone. You may hear the delicate, dreamy notes of Clair de Lune fill the air, a melody that feels like pure romance. Or perhaps the timeless longing of Moon River is what your hearts need to hear, a song that speaks of shared journeys and quiet understanding.
This isn’t just a concert; it’s a shared memory in the making. As a powerful rendition of My Heart Will Go On swells through the room, you’re not just listening to a performance—you’re creating a story together. It’s the perfect way to honor your connection in a city known for its soul and deep-rooted romance.
