It’s that time of year when purple, green, and gold deck the shelves of stores, king cakes are being sold at bakery shops, and Mardi Gras festivities are in full swing just about everywhere. Mardi Gras celebrations look different for everyone, depending on where you live and how you approach the holiday. You may be planning your own party, attending another celebration, or even planning a trip to New Orleans to experience the thrill and energy of the iconic, timeless parades along St. Charles Avenue. However you choose to celebrate, there is one thing that remains relevant to any celebration: taking Instagram-worthy photos. No matter where you are, you’re going to want to show off the fun time with your friends in that perfect purple, green, or gold outfit that you probably spent weeks coordinating.
With all of the planning that goes into celebrating Mardi Gras, it can be hard to get it all done. From finding accessories to buying the perfect king cake so one of your friends can find the baby inside, a Mardi Gras celebration can be hard to pull off.
