Bring Your Ownis a nomadic storytelling series that takes place in living rooms, backyards and other intimate spaces within the community. Each month, seven storytellers have 7 minutes to respond to a theme. BYO airs on All Things New Orleans and is a biweekly podcast on WWNO.org.
This story was told live on September 17, 2014 on Dupre Street in Bayou St. John, and later produced by Nina Feldman. The theme of the evening was “Worth The Wait?” Here, storyteller and WWNO's own Eve Abrams does her best to bring family traditions into her very non-traditional wedding.
The next BYO will be a special collaboration with Prospect 3+. It’s at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, October 26 at 3308 Magazine St. For more information, visit bringyourownstories.com
