1,100 - 1,800 Sexy Couples
It’s our Sweet 16 Party
We are turning Sweet 16 this year and this will be our biggest
Naughty in N’awlins since our record breaking event in 2004.
We are officially the longest running national convention and we
aren’t going to stop.
This program is a great summary of the event with a list of
events, seminars, parties and more. We also included some articles that we wrote to give you some things to think about.
The world is becoming more accepting of alternative lifestyles
and we are excited to be part of that movement. Gay marriage is
becoming legal in state after state. Fifty Shades of Grey shattered records in the bookstore and the movie will certainly do
the same. This benefits anyone in any “alternative” relationship.
If you are new to Naughty in N’awlins, make sure you go to a
couple of the seminars and participate in our games and ice
breakers. Speed Dating is another great option for newbies. Our
staff (yellow Naughty T Shirts) are always around to answer any
questions.
Now take a minute to read through this program and then get out
on Bourbon St or head to one of our Official Naughty Events
and enjoy yourselves this week. You only live once and it’s time
to make this week one you will never forget...
Welcome to Naughty in N’awlins!

Bob & Tess’ recommendations
Each year, we recommend a few new places to visit and to eat.
Since we are located on Bourbon Street we are going to suggest
some really great options nearby our hotel.
Doris Metropolitan: 620 Chartres St.
This has to be the Best New Restaurant in New Orleans.
Especially if you like steaks. New Orleans is not known as a
great mecca for steaks, but that is about to change. Ruth’s Chris
steakhouse was born in New Orleans and we have some great
steak houses like Morton’s, Besh’s Steak House, Dickie
Brennen’s, Mr. Johns and Crescent City Steakhouse, just to name
a few. We think Doris Metropolitan has them all beat.
Doris had two butcher shops in Israel and has brought his
famous cuts and aging techniques to the French Quarter. Many
good steakhouses age their beef up to 21 days, Doris ages their
top cuts up to 31 days and you can taste the difference. My personal favorite is the bone on filet. It is the best steak I have ever
tasted. Hands down. It ain’t cheap, but you can share it as it is a
generous portion. For reservations, call (504) 267-3500.
V’s Sushi & Martini: 821 Iberville St.
If you don’t like Sushi, don’t let the name stop you from checking this place out. It is an amazing place (very close to our hotel)
and they spent a lot of money opening up this terrific new
French Quarter spot.
They have a great filet mignon steak, fresh fish, chicken and
other dishes if sushi isn’t your thing. If it is, then you will love
the best sushi in town. It is creative, artistic and delicious. Try
the tuna carpaccio or one of their signature rolls.
If you like martinis, then this is the place for you. We love the
Cucumber Refresher and the Red Lotus, but there are plenty of
other fantastic martinis to choose from. From the decor, to the
music, to the beautiful waitresses and bartenders, this place is a
home run. For reservations call (504) 522-5550.
Best Burlesque in Town
There are a lot of great Burlesque Shows in town and you will
see some of the best local performers throughout Naughty in
N’awlins. Here are some of the best shows and where to catch
them:
Burlesque Ballroom: 300 Bourbon St
Inside the Royal Sonesta Hotel is a great Jazz club called Irvin
Mayfield’s. Trixie Minx stars in the weekly burlesque show featuring the music of Romy Kaye and the Brent Walsh Jazz Trio. It
is a flashback to what you would have found back on Bourbon
St in the 40’s and 50’s. Classy acts with live Jazz. No cover
charge makes this a real winner.
Call 504-553-2331 for to reserve a table.
Bella’s Blue Book: 735 Bourbon St.
Billed as a “Late Night Kink-Easy, this show features a
2
rotating cast of the best in drag and burlesque. You will get a
tease at our Wednesday Night Roaring 20’s Party, be sure to
come back and see the whole show. Located at Lucky Pierre’s,
the shows starts at 9:30 pm and there is a $10 cover.
Fleur de Tease 615 Toulouse St.
Fleur de Tease is New Orleans' premiere Variety Burlesque
Revue. Created & produced by Trixie Minx and proudly sponsored by Trashy Diva, this modern twist on a classic Vaudeville
show has something to please and tease every audience member.
Magicians, fire eaters, comedians, aerialists and of course beautiful burlesque dancers all make up the core members of the
troupe.
There is no show this week, but if you come back to visit, check
out their schedule at www.FleurDeTease.com to see their schedule.
Dirty Dime Peep Show 2240 St. Claude Ave.
The Dirty Dime Peepshow at The Allways Lounge is always a
great show. Unlike the traditional Burlesque Shows, this is a
more edgy, downright dirty show that we simply love.
Doors at 11 pm.
The show at midnight & there is a $15 cover at the door.
Another show not scheduled this week, but you can see their
schedule at www.TheBellaLounge.com
Creole Sweet Tease 931 Canal Street
The best in high end glamorous burlesque with a traditional jazz
band at The Saint Hotel from 9 pm-midnight. We love this super
sexy bar, especially when sexy ladies are dancing. This is a
FREE show but we suggest you make a table reservation by calling 504-522-5400, because it is a small venue.
Slow Burn Burlesque
Slow Burn Burlesque is a thrilling show combining classic style
and glamour with rock n' roll attitude, Slow Burn sets stages on
fire with bewitching routines, outrageous antics, and hilarious
behavior. Each show has a sexy core cast of burlesque beauties
and special guests from around the world, including comedians,
aerialists, magicians, contortionists, pole dancers, musicians, and
more! You can see their schedule at
www.SlowBurnBurlesque.com
Bustout Burlesque
Bustout Burlesque is an authentic 1950’s style burlesque show,
recreating the glamorous nightclub entertainment found on
Bourbon Street decades ago. It brings back sexy, glamorous, and
risque New Orleans-style entertainment with elegance, flair, and
wit.
Glamorous girls, a comic emcee, a sexy songstress, along with
mood lighting, props, and a live jazz band, makes this an unforgettable and unique New Orleans experience.
A traditional New Orleans jazz band backs the performers, electrifying and energizing the dancers and audience alike. The show
is a feast of sights and sounds bound to thrill and enthrall men
and women, young and old.
N’awlins 2014 Guidelines
Please help us ensure everyone has the best possible time by abiding by all local laws and by looking out for fellow
N’awlins 2014 attendees. Your actions represent our event and will go a long way toward our acceptance in this
community.
The city of New Orleans is very tolerant but we do not need to test their tolerance. We can have lots of fun this weekend
without offending other tourists or anyone from the local community. Keep your parties private and behind closed doors.
Please dress properly while on the street. Don’t walk around topless or in a thong. It is O.K. to flash for beads, but
remember, Bourbon Street is still a public street.
Please read and adhere to the following guidelines:
1: Respect. "No means No!" Anyone that doesn't understand this or is making unwanted advances will be politely asked to leave, without a refund.
2: No Public Nudity! Sexy: Yes!, Naked: No! This is a
convention, not a clothing optional resort. Please cover
up in all public places of the hotel including the hallways, elevators, lobby, etc...
3: No Drugs: This is simple- "Just Say No" Anyone
breaking this rule will be banned forever, again- no
refund.
4. Cameras are O.K.: Of course, this is only if the
person shooting the picture has permission. We decided
that since we are all adults, we should let everyone be
able to take photos of each other as long as they respect
everyone else’s privacy. If anyone is taking pictures of
you without your permission, please let one of our staff
members know and we will take care of the situation.
6. Leave the Hotel Staff Alone: I know there are some
cute employees working at the Astor Crowne Plaza, but
they are off limits & could get fired if they did anything.
So flirt with the attendees, not the hotel staff.
5. Listen to Security & Police: If someone says you are
acting or are dressed inappropriately, you probably are.
Please respect the local law enforcement and our own
staff. They are there to protect you and the city of New
Orleans.
6. Intoxication: If you become intoxicated and
disruptive, you may be asked to leave (without refund).
Do not drink and drive. Please use a taxi or shuttle service
if necessary.
7. VIP Passes are MANDATORY! You must have your
All Access Pass on you at all times. If you forgot it in
your room, you will be asked to go and get it. We have
decided to give everyone a weekend of great events, activities and parties without having to wear a wristband.
Please help us keep this event private by carrying your
pass on you at all times. Anyone caught trying to trade
passes will be banned from this and all future events.
If you lose your pass, we will charge a $100 replacement
fee. This fee is non-negotiable.
8: Have fun. It's a rule, and it's enforced!
We do ask that you help with security. Everyone at the hotel property will have to
have their VIP Pass. No one from outside of the convention will be allowed into the
private parties or the hotel unless they register with us and get their VIP Pass.
If you see someone that does not look like they belong... they probably don’t.
Please let us know if you see someone that doesn’t belong so we can approach them.
You will also see several uniformed security staffers and New Orleans Police
Officers in the lobby of the hotel, please consult them if you have any questions.
Also, take care of your bartenders, shuttle bus drivers, bellman, maids, and anyone
else that has helped to make your stay a pleasant one. Your generosity will be greatly
appreciated and will really help the locals who are dealing with a decrease in tourism.

Group Travel
New Groups Department
We love groups! Group hugs, group sex, flash mobs,
Groupons, and group discounts. Good things come in
bunches.
Every resort and cruise line have a groups department
and we thought it was about time to set one up for us at
both Couples Cruise and for Naughty in N’awlins.
Most couples that come to Naughty or cruise with us are
already in a circle of friends. You probably already go
out together, travel and have fun together, so why not
make it official and set yourselves up as a group.
Why Book a Group?
The easiest answer is to save money. We will be offering
up to a 10% discount on reservations booked with a
group, depending on the size and event/cruise. This is
money you can spend on your plane tickets, excursions,
drinks or simply save.
Besides saving money, booking a group of friends can
help you get placed near each other on a cruise ship,
larger groups can qualify for a private reception and you
can reserve tables for dinner for your group as well.
What does it take to make a Group?
It just takes you and 4 other couples to get started. In
order to qualify as a group, you need a minimum of 5
couples and you will each get a special 5% discount.
We suggest coming up with a name for your group.
Maybe you are from Atlanta and you call yourselves the
4
“Dirty Birds” or the “Big Easy’s” here in New Orleans.
Maybe you have a local club like Colette and you put a
group together called the “Colette Couples” or the “Club
Kids”.
Make T-Shirts, buy crazy matching hats or blinking sunglasses and recruit more people when you travel. Other
people that are not with a group will want to be included
in your group. Even if they are not from your home town
or club, they can still be part of your group and earn discounts on future cruises and events.
While you are at NIN, it is a great opportunity to recruit
people into your group. If you haven’t signed up for the
upcoming November Couples Cruise, find other couples
that are not signed up and your entire group could save
10%.
How do we set up a Group
It’s easy. There is a group form in your welcome bag and
there are extra forms at our registration desk. Simply fill
out the form and start taking names. Discounts are for new
bookings only, so you can’t go find 4 other couples that
are already signed up in order to get a discount. It doesn’t
work that way.
You can turn in your form, with at least 4 other couples,
and you will start saving today. We can set up your cabins
for November or one of our other exciting cruises in 2015
& 2016.
Even if you don’t have everyone confirmed, we can block
out 5 cabins for you and your friends today with only a
small deposit. You can sign up the other couples when you
get back home and we will hold your block of cabins for
you.
Bob & Tess’ Corner
So far this year, Tess and I became sole owners of
Couples Cruise, we hosted a group of lifestyle couples
through Thailand, found a new charter boat as we sailed
in the British Virgin Islands, toured Norway and visited
Normandy on Memorial Day and booked a couple of new
charters in Europe and the Caribbean.
We even moved into a new apartment complex for
lifestyle couples in the French Quarter. We celebrated 30
years together. It has been a great year so far.
We want your year to be great too, which is why we have
put so many excellent adventures together for you. I
recently read a FaceBook post that said “Are you really
living life... or you are just paying bills till you die.” We
think you should choose the 1st option.
Life is too short, believe us, we know. We have seen
close friends who unexpectedly passed this past year and
they all had so many things that they still wanted to do,
but never got the chance. You have that chance.
We know money can be tight and it’s hard to allocate
time, when you have a job, family and a busy life to support, but you need to take some time for yourself.
Explore. Travel. Cruise. Live!
The clock is ticking and none of us are getting any
younger. Enjoy each year like it is your last and you will
enjoy life so much more...
We made a major life change just over 10 years ago
(right after Katrina) and dedicated time for us. This
means more to us than traveling the world, it means
sitting on our balcony with a glass of wine after work.
Us on the Independence of
Spending more time in our hot tub. Slowing down to see
the world go by instead of working 7 days a week, 10-12
hours a day.
The only way we could accomplish this was to hire some
great staff and put together a special team of host couples, ambassadors and event staff.
I hope you will take a minute of your time this week to
thank our team members (usually wearing yellow
Naughty T Shirts) for their hard work. Before you come
to town, they are busy setting up playrooms, unloading
trucks, stuffing welcome bags and much more.
While you are having fun, they are changing sheets,
cleaning up messes and trying to get people to pay attention to the rules, even if they have had just a little too
much to drink. They deserve a lot more credit than they
get.
Thanks again for coming to Naughty in N’awlins and we
hope to see you again on a future Couples Cruise, back
next year for Naughty in N’awlins, on our Amsterdam
Adventure or maybe just visiting New Orleans.
If you are ever in town (on a non-party weekend), drop
us a line... if we are in town, we’ll come hang out with
you at one of our favorite French Quarter spots.
Your hosts,

Swinging in the Media Article
Swinging and the Media
This year, we are expecting more than the usual media
inquiries. As many of you already know, Tess and I have
been on several documentaries, on 20/20, Dateline,
Primetime and have consulted with shows like Oprah and
many other media outlets. It has been a life long goal of ours
to educate the public about “alternative” lifestyles to promote understanding and tolerance.
We have been on the board of the National Coalition for
Sexual Freedom (NCSFreedom.org), we founded a trade
association for business owners and we have spent an incredible amount of time educating club owners, websites and new
couples about open relationships and non-monogamy.
We have turned down 10 times more shows than we have
accepted, because it is important for us to feel comfortable
with the anchor, producer and network. Everything we have
participated in has gone very well and shed a positive light
on an often misunderstood group of people.
This year, a well known primetime TV show will be here to
produce a segment about this lifestyle as it follows a couple
at our event.
We are going to open up our dance on Saturday night early
(just for those that are willing to appear on camera) so they
can get the idea of what an event like ours is all about. We
will also set up interviews with couples that don’t mind
speaking out publically, but filming will be done in private.
Tess & I on a 20/20 special back in 2006
as you normally would and have a great time. We just need
some couples that are not camera shy and you won’t even
know they are filming.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at
Bob@FrenchConnectionEvents.com and I’ll be happy to
address them. Our number one priority is the privacy of our
attendees, which is why we go to such levels to make sure
that anyone that doesn’t want to participate, doesn’t have to.
We don’t need the publicity, our hotel sold out over a month
before the convention, but we want to show the world that
swinging is a viable lifestyle for many people that just don’t
know it yet. We are showing the world responsible couples,
who are happy and successful, instead of the stereotypical
Jerry Springer types that we have seen on TV for far too
long.
For the most part, you won’t even know that they are there.
Wear a Mardi Gras mask if you are still nervous. If you
absolutely can’t be in the parade, then cheer on the parade
from the street or from a balcony (throw us some beads!).
If you are interested in an interview for the show, let someone know at the registration desk in the main lobby. If you
don’t mind being in our filming of our Masquerade Ball on
Saturday night, stop by at 7:30 pm (sharp!) and we will be
filming from 8-8:45 pm in the main ballroom on the 2nd
floor. You can wear a Mardi Gras mask if you like, after all,
it is a Masquerade Ball.
The show will focus on a few couples and their experience at

that consider themselves “swingers” do not live openly and
most of their family and friends do not know. In many cases,
they fear that their jobs could be endangered, as they have

that friends or family will shun them or at the very least, look
down upon them for partaking an in “alternative lifestyle”.

forward in gaining acceptance.
That said, we know that everyone is not
ready to walk, hand in hand, down
Bourbon St to declare to the world that
they are “swingers”. Of course, just
because you are in our parade, does not
mean that you are a swinger, just like
everyone in a Gay Pride Parade is not gay. It just means that
you support their choices. In fact, probably half of the people
in our parades do not identify themselves as a “swinger”, but
they support our event and our lifestyle choices.
Even if your picture ended up on the front page of Time magazine and people confronted you and said “I saw you in a
“Swingers parade” you can simply reply with “Yes, I was in
New Orleans and got caught up in a parade, I didn’t even
know what it was all about but everyone sure looked like
they were having fun and we joined the parade for a few
blocks.” No harm there.
If someone came right out and asked if you were swingers
and you did not want to come out, you could simply say “It’s
not our choice right now, but we support people that are gay
and people in open relationships and their lifestyles. What
people do with their partners is their business, not ours.”
Pride
What is Pride? Dictionary.com says “a high or inordinate
opinion of one's own dignity, importance, merit, or superiority, whether as cherished in the mind or as displayed in bearing, conduct, etc. “
Are you “proud” of your conduct or do you live in secrecy?

We think we are at a crucial tipping point,
a place where gay rights advocates were
20 years ago. We are going to see more
acceptance and more tolerance for couples
that are non-monogamous over the next 5
to 10 years. This is not because people are
just becoming more tolerant, it is because there are people
pushing this movement and shaping our story in order to
change perceptions. And it is working.
Robert Bray, from the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force
once said “people are coming out because so much is at
stake… coming out is our secret weapon.” Of course, he was
talking about gay rights, but his point is true today. Before
the late 80‘s, most gay men and women were in the closet,
especially celebrities and sports figures, but then something
happened. Something important. People started coming out
and standing up for their right to sexual freedom. The world
changed.
You see, prior to this, most people didn’t know anyone that
was gay. They thought of gay people as stereotypical flaming,
cross-dressing men or butch women. As people started to
come out in mass, everyone started to know gay people that
they never considered to be gay. Their uncle Bob, or Jan at
the office, or that nice guy that owns the coffee shop down
the street.
As time went on and the AIDS epidemic took it’s toll, they
knew people who were stricken. They knew people who had
died. It put a new and personal link between themselves and
the gay movement.
Then something just as important happened. Famous gay
people came out. Celebrities. Sitcoms and movies featured
Continued from previous page
Swinger Pride Article
gay characters and not just the old stereotypes, but characters
that people could identify with and love. Tom Hanks’
Philadelphia won him an Oscar but more importantly humanized an AIDS patient and made the country collectively weep
and cheer for a gay man.
Soap Operas featured gay characters, TV sitcoms like “Queer
as Folk”, “Will and Grace”, “Oz”, “Six Feet Under”, “Glee”
and many more, featured gay characters that people could
relate to, cheer for and even love.
Knowing someone that is gay or seeing them on TV has
changed the world’s perception more than any other advance
in the gay movement. I cannot think of any other example
that is better than Dick Cheney, one of the country’s most
conservative figures and a father to a lesbian daughter. In
2009 Cheney said “I think, you know, freedom means freedom for everyone, I think people ought to be free to enter
into any kind of union they wish, any kind of arrangement
they wish.” Do you think this conservative man would have
believed this way if his daughter was not gay?
There are important parallels between the gay rights movement and non-monogamy. We are now seeing shows like
“Swing” (Playboy), “Secret Sex Lives: Swingers” (Discovery
Health), “Swingtown” (CBS 2008) and movies like “Eyes
Wide Shut”. Movie and TV stars are coming out publically
and the notion of non-monogamy is becoming increasingly
more visible in media. The logical result: more acceptance.
Your Role
We do not need everyone to come out today, but we also do
not need everyone to be ashamed and to act like their
lifestyle is a dirty little secret. If you can’t come out, we
understand, but at least recognize that society is changing and
you can still support sexual freedom rights without being
outed as living an alternative lifestyle.
For those that are still concerned about their own personal
privacy, we will have free masks for you to wear down
Bourbon St so you can support our cause and still remain
anonymous. There are even nicer masks for sale all along
Bourbon St that you can buy and wear again on Saturday for
the big Mardi Gras Masquerade Ball.
This parade really is a turning point for those that believe in
furthering sexual freedom and we are very proud of how far
we have come. We never thought we’d have a police escort, a
marching band, floats and over 1,000 people marching down
the main street of a major city representing the swinging
lifestyle.
Join us and help us change the world. The parade will kick
off at 9 pm, in the 100 block of Bourbon St and will continue
to 735 Bourbon St where it will end with a Roaring 20’s
party at Lucky Pierre’s. Put on your best Roaring 20’s costume and let’s show this town how to Swing.
Non-monogamy is already publically accepted, it only
becomes more unacceptable when it involves committed partners. In fact singles that sleep with multiple partners is often
glorified through TV and movies but only recently have open
relationships seen positive portrayals on film.
Here are just a few of the celebrities who have either “come
out” or have been reported to be in open relationships:
Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie, Will Smith & Jada Pinkett-Smith,
Demi Moore & Ashton Kutcher, Justin Timberlake & Jessica
Biel, Zac Efron & Vanessa Hudgens, Pink & Carey Hart,
Dolly Parton & her husband Carl Dean, Goldie Hawn and exhusband Bill Hudson, Shirley MacLaine and ex-husband
Steve Parker, Megan Fox & Brian Austin Green. Mo'Nique,
Rachael Ray & her husband, John Cusimano, Tilda Swinton
and her partner John Byrne.
As more people “come out”, swinging, open relationships
and non-monogamy will become less and less “alternative”
and more mainstream. Recent Supreme Court rulings will
also go a long way towards expanding sexual freedom in our
bedrooms without the threat of government interference, loss
of jobs, and estrangement from family or friends.

Our Thoughts, Philosophies, Tips & Opinions
For each event, we write a few of our thoughts, philosophies and opinions in our program with the hope that
you’ll find a few parts funny, a few serious and a few
that make you actually think.
Colette
Every year our Wednesday Night parade ends at Colette. This
year we've made some changes. First of all, the parade will
start at our hotel, not end here. We will have our Wednesday
Night party at Lucky Pierre’s in the 700 block of Bourbon St.
Your pass will still get you into Colette on either Wednesday
or Thursday nights for free (only one night). So, stop on over
after the Roaring 20’s party lets out or wait and go Thursday
night if you like.
If you go on either night, you will need your laminated passes
and they will punch your card to show that you came. If you
don't go on Wednesday, you can get in on Thursday night, with
your un-punched laminated passes. By splitting up the crowd
between two nights, you will get a much better experience at
the club; one of the best in the country.
Show up for the Parade Dressed for the Party
The party is 7 blocks from the hotel, so you won’t have time to
walk in the parade, walk back 7 blocks, then get dressed and
walk back to the party. Just show up for the parade in your
Roaring 20’s costumes and the parade will look a lot more
interesting. Wait till you see the looks on the regular tourists
faces when we come marching through.
Who Loves Wine?
I do! And I really love Bar Vin, a classy little oasis, just off
Bourbon Street (on Bienville Street). Join Patrick, the bar
Owner, and I as we try some great choices from around the
world, even a vineyard owned by a local French Quarter doctor
(it’s really good!). This is a great new addition to our itinerary, I
hope you will like the bar and the courtyard as much as we do.
It’s listed in the schedule, but this party is Wednesday from 3 to
6 pm. A great way to kick off the event and a great Meet & Greet
before the parade kicks off.
Hard Rocking
Since we are starting the parade in front of our hotel, we set up
a private Meet & Greet at the Hard Rock across the street from
8 till 9 pm (when the parade kicks off). This isn’t one of our sit
down dinners, but more of a cocktail reception to get everyone
ready for the parade.
If you are hungry, we suggest coming over at 6 pm so you will
10
have plenty of time to sit down, relax and have a great meal
before the parade kicks off.
“No Street Clothes” Rule on the Hospitality Floor
Starting on Thursday Night, we will have a “No Street Clothes”
Rule on this floor. You don’t have to be naked, in fact we prefer
a robe, lingerie, pajamas or a towel when going to and from the
party suites.
If you want to play at night, this is the place. If you want to hang
out in your street clothes and talk, head to our nightly theme
party or head to the lobby and go to the bar located just to the
right after coming off the elevators.
Why do we have a “No Street Clothes” Rule? Because we have
been to lots of conventions over the years and we always see the
same thing: lots of people on the party floor, fully dressed,
drinks in their hands, talking and hanging out and no one was
using any of the “play space”.
Then one year, we tried the “No Street Clothes” Rule and there
wasn’t nearly as many people hanging out in the halls; they were
mostly inside, playing and having a great time. Why? Because
they didn’t have barriers and they were already one step closer
to intimacy.
It also kept out the people that never intended on playing anyway. If they had to get undressed, they would prefer to head to
the lobby bar and socialize, instead of crowding the party floor
with non-party-ers.
Every night there will be pizzas & water for those who are a little hungry in the lobby area of M2 (Mezzanine Level).
Music
We love music, and we will be embarking on a musical journey
this weekend. Most conventions play a lot of rap music, techno
and club music. A lot of people like this music (yes, they really
do) but there are so many more music choices that get left out.
This weekend we’re going to do our best to play a wide diversity of music.
We will also try to keep the volume down so you can talk and
get to know each other.
Tip: If it is too loud for you near the dance floor (where we
concentrate the loudest music), try heading to a table around
the perimeter of the ballroom. You’ll still get to hear the music
(at a much lower volume) but it’ll be easier to talk to other
couples in a very comfortable setting.
If you don’t like the music that is playing, give us a minute, we
Continued on next page
will probably change as the night goes on so we can cater to
a wide variety of tastes. If you still don’t hear something you
like, let the DJ know (and be nice) and they’ll probably play
your favorite song. Saying “we want more dance music”
means different things to different people, so be specific and
we can accommodate your request.
Photo Booth
This year we have added a high tech photo booth to capture
your moments at our erotic theme balls. Just pop in with your
partner (or friends) and you will get a free photo strip to
remember your weekend. You can even put in your email and
you will be emailed your pics.
N’awlins 2014
If you own a lifestyle business (or are thinking about it), this is
a great chance to network with other club owners and find out
more about the status of the industry.
Finally, there is a special Adventure we (Bob & Tess) will be
hosting on Friday afternoon. If you are a lifestyle
business owner and you didn’t get an invitation in your welcome
aboard package, please come by registration to sign up for this
“Excellent Adventure”.
The tour will start in the Astor Ballroom at 11:30 am. There is no
food stops on this trip, so grab a bite before you head out.
Next year’s Naughty
We have had our annual event in the main tower (500 rooms) of
the Astor Crowne Plaza Hotel for most of the last 10 years. The
hotel bought the Alexa Hotel a couple of years ago which added
200 more rooms to the Astor which was good for us this year,
because we had to overflow into this tower for the 1st time since
2004.
We also had to overflow into the Hyatt French Quarter hotel
because this year’s turn out was so big. We have over 700 rooms
booked for this year’s event and next year, we are taking over
both towers of the Astor and then we are going to cut off registrations when we reach that number.
Bigger is better, but we are not going to get any bigger than we
are this year, so book early and take advantage of our early bird
discount and ensure you get into the main tower.
Thank You Card
We put a handful of “Thank You” cards in your welcome
bag. Put these in your pockets and if you go to these places
(or anywhere else for that matter) and have a great meal, get
a discount off of clothes or toys, get great service at a bar,
then give them one of our cards.
We want to make a mark on this city and the best way for
them to appreciate Naughty in N’awlins is for them to see
how many people are buying in their stores and eating and
drinking at their establishments. If the French Quarter businesses gets lots of these cards, they will be more likely to
offer more discounts and perks to our attendees next year.
Lifestyle Business Owners
We will have a special Lifestyle Business Owners meeting
Thursday & Saturday mornings at 10 a.m. in the Astor or
Grand Ballroom, 2nd Floor. We are also having an Industry
Reception on Friday at 8 p.m. in the main Gallery, just
outside the ballroom on the 2nd floor.
We will have two price increases, one on November 15th, 2014
and the next one will be May 15th, 2015. Each date, the price per
couple will go up by $50, so if you wait until the last minute, you
will be paying $100 extra.
You can sign up for next year’s event by filling out our simple
form in the registration area of the main lobby before you leave.
This will guarantee you the best price and the best location in the
hotel.
Sober in New Orleans?
Yes, you can enjoy New Orleans sober. If you attend AA or
support meetings in your community, you can attend them here,
at the convention. The noon meetings will be held on M2 in the
Conti board room (when you come onto M2, take a left and
follow the signs to the Royal Boardroom towards the end of the
hall).
We will have some experienced couples on hand to meet with
you and show support. Not only will you be able to talk about
your experience being sober in New Orleans, but this is a great
place to discuss being sober in the lifestyle, something you
probably can’t talk openly about in your home club.

Couples Cruise Sails Again
The Newest Full Ship Charter Ship:
MSC Divina
Adventure
Our European
Couples Cruise Announces four New
Cruising Options in 2015 & 2016!
This has been an important year for
Couples Cruise. First of all, back in March,
We (Bob & Tess) bought out our partner
Wayne and moved the office to New
Orleans and consolidated with French
Connection Events.
After nine years of building this company
to it’s current position at the top of the
lifestyle charter cruise industry, we are
ready to take Couples Cruise to the next
level.
Finding the Perfect Ship
We immediately started researching the
best chips in the industry that were producing the top charters to see which brand
would fit best for our charter clients.
We are proud to announce a new partnership with MSC Cruises, the third largest
cruise line in the world with the newest
and nicest ships in the industry.
Not only are their ships newer, bigger and
cleaner than anything we could find, but
they are the top choice in entertainment
charters with the Holy Ship (Electronic
12
Dance Music charter), Jam Cruise
(Jam Bands Charter), Monsters of
Rock, The Moody Blues Cruise,
RSVP (gay charter), Cruise to the
Edge (Rock Charter), as well as wine
charters, baseball stars and other specialty
charters.
MSC Divina has proven to be a great
option for a niche market cruise like ours.
A Ship with Class and Style
Inspired by Sophia Loren herself, MSC
Divina brings you all the elegance and
glamour of the golden age of sea travel in
a new vision. A spacious, ultra modern
interpretation that pampers you with sumptuous comfort and an immense variety of
sports and leisure facilities, plus worldclass entertainment.
Let your eyes drink in the sheer scale, style
and attention to detail. From MSC
Divina’s real stone piazza to her
Broadway-size theatre. From the
sweeping grace of her Swarovski
crystal staircases to the calm of
her Infinity Pool, extending seamlessly out to sea and the horizon
beyond.
Discover the opulent enhancements to the MSC Aurea Spa wellness centre on board, and the even
more spacious and exclusive MSC
Yacht Club, with its speciallycommissioned works of art. This
is a ship, within a ship, offering unmatched
privacy and amenities.
The Yacht Club comes with complimentary drinks, butler service and your own private concierge.
Discover a cruise like no other on the spectacular floating city that is MSC Divina - a
superb holiday destination in her own
right, offering something for everyone at
all times.
Sometimes Bigger is Better
The MSC Divina is the largest lifestyle
friendly, full ship charter in the world. A
beautiful ship that will hold over 3,500
people, which will make this Couples
Cruise the biggest party at sea. No other
nude or clothing optional cruise will be
anywhere as big as this Couples Cruise.
Special Sneak Peak
March 21st - 28th, 2015
Eastern Caribbean on MSC Divina
MSC Divina
We are having a special “Sneak Peek” of
the Divina next spring, for 100 lucky couples, that will include a complete takeover
of the Yacht Club.
We will have exclusive use of the Yacht
Club for only Couples Cruise passengers.
Our private pool will be clothing optional
and a great place for us to hang out and
party all week long.
The Yacht Club, MSC Divina's "ship within a ship," is targeted to cruisers who prefer an intimate, small ship experience,
without having to give up the amenities
available on larger vessels.
The experience is distinctly different from
the rest of the ship: There is more space,
privacy, pampering, and personal service,
akin to the perks associated with a
concierge floor at a five-star luxury hotel.
The Yacht Club is located on portions of
three decks: Decks 15, 16 and 18, all
towards the bow of the ship.
The three-floor enclave with 69 suites (we
didn’t make that up) in total has its own
eye-catching spiral stairway with
Swarovski crystal steps, and an exclusive
elevator that provides private access to the
spa. Club entry is restricted to "members,"
accessible only with their keycards.
The club's virtual living room is the spacious Top Sail Lounge and Bar on Deck
15. Furnished with curved brown banquettes and loveseats, it has a serene
ambiance, which is never crowded and has
unobstructed, 180-degree views of the sea.
Waiters circulate offering guests hot or
cold drinks or snacks. A circular concierge
desk (staffed 24/7) is adjacent to the
lounge.
On Deck 18, guests can swim in the private
pool or use two
dedicated whirlpools.
Lounge chairs are always available on the
sundeck, and they are more generously
spaced compared to those elsewhere on the
ship. The Yacht Club-dedicated La Muse
Restaurant is located on Deck 15 at the
ship's stern.
Weather permitting, a lovely, hot
and cold lunch buffet with waiter
service is set up daily on the Deck
18 sundeck, just steps from the
pool. Complimentary drinks are
also available throughout the day at
the pool bar.
The minibar in each cabin is generously stocked with complimentary
juices, spirits, soda, bottled water,
and nuts---and a fresh fruit bowl is
replenished daily.
Yacht Club Private Pool
While excursions, spa treatments,
and transportation to and from the
ship are extras, passengers aren't
nickel-and-dimed for bottled water,
sodas, specialty coffees, cocktails,
or wine with dinner.
The premium you pay for the luxury of the Yacht Club translates into
more comfortable cabins, no loud
announcements, no crowds at the
pool or sundeck, no lines or waits,
higher ratios of (better trained)
crew to passengers, and hassle-free
embarkation and
disembarkation.
Yacht Club Suite
For example, each butler serves
only four guest cabins, not only
responding to but also anticipating
requests.
On the rest of the ship, a steward is
responsible for as many as 20. In
fact, crew goes out of their way to
anticipate and respond to any reasonable request.

November 9th - 16th, 2015
Amsterdam to Switzerland
Rhine River Cruise on the
AmaCerto
While the leader in big lifestyle
charters, we have added a great
new division to our Couples Cruise
lineup: European Luxury River
Cruises!
Yacht Club Private Dining Room
We

are excited to announce our 1st ever, full
ship river charter on an exciting cruise that
will start in Amsterdam and cruise the
Rhine River through Holland, Germany,
France and end up in Switzerland.
Your inclusive vacation provides incredible, value from the champagne breakfast
and free-flowing hand-selected European
wines with lunch and dinner to a fleet of
bicycles, free Internet access, included
sightseeing excursions and live
cultural entertainment onboard.
On a river Couples Cruise, your
vacation’s price tag doesn’t
keep adding up.
All of this with other fun, open
minded couples is the only way
to see Europe.
Full Ship Charter
AmaCerto Rhine River Cruise
April 16th - 23rd, 2016
Eastern Caribbean on MSC
Divina
We are so excited to be on
board this fantastic ship and
you will understand when you
see it for yourself.
AmaCerto Cabin
We will start off with a pre cruise visit to
the number one swingers club in the world:
Fun4Two near amsterdam. We will visit
other clubs along the Rhine as we dock in
historic European cities on the world’s
most scenic waterways.
Over the course of your journey, you’ll
find yourself surrounded by rolling vineyards, hilltop castles and time-honored
cities. Vibrant locales not accessible by sea
or that can take hours to reach by motor
coach are up close and personal on a river
cruise.
Smaller tours and intimate meal settings
with open seating create a warm, personal
atmosphere accentuated by five-star
service.
14
The ship was built just four
years ago, making this the
newest ship ever chartered for a
lifestyle cruise. The ship is
going through a dry dock in
November of 2015 so it will be
completely fresh and renovated
for our charter.
We will have our largest playroom ever on
this ship which will mean that more people
can play and enjoy afternoon seminars for
massages and Tantra sessions.
This ship has a European feel to it, with
Caribbean destinations. It is the best of
both worlds. You will love the diverse dining options and the entertainment which
includes dueling pianos, Cirque-type
shows and our signature shows.
The cabins are going to go fast, as we have
already had a lot of requests from travel
agents and past passengers (especially
suites and the Yacht Club) so book your
cabin this week with a small deposit and
you’ll lock down your next Couples Cruise
while you still can.
All Year Sailing in the BVI’s!
Clothing Optional Charters
in the beautiful British Virgin Islands
Tess and I just found a true gem in the
Caribbean in St. Thomas. You can go with
a small group of friends and have the freedom to sail topless (or even naked!), dance
on a pole, party with friends and have a
truly amazing experience while visiting
some of the most breathtaking areas in the
Caribbean, the British Virgin Islands.
You will get picked up in St. Thomas and
whisked away for a week of island
hopping through the BVI’s, where you can
dive, treasure hunt, snorkel, work on your
all over tan or just relax in a
hammock and do nothing.
The ship is a 63’ Trimaran sailboat that is
very stable and the perfect vessel for up to
5 couples to share.
Unlike monohull sailboats or even catamarans, our sailboat is much wider, rides
smoother and has a lot more deck space for
enjoying the outside.
The ship comes with a Captain, 1st Mate, a
chef and a dive master. This is what really
sets this Couples Cruise, clothing optional
charter apart from any other small charters
in the Virgin Islands. Normally, you will
get a crew of two, but we double the crew
to ensure you have everything you need.
You won’t belive the meals on board and
you’ll love the drinks (which are all
included in the price). This is a great value
because it’s all inclusive.
Unlike the large cruises, this Trimaran can
stop at multiple islands and harbors in a
single day. They can get into places that
cruise ships can never experience, giving
you access to some of the best beaches,
caves, diving and beach bars that can only
be reached by sailboat.
There are 5 cabins on board, so call up
your friends right away to book a week on
this unique Couples Cruise ship that will
be sailing year round in the Virgin Islands.
Tess and I already booked our next charter
with 4 couples next May/June.
Book Your Couples Cruises at NIN
Sailing on a Couples Cruise
A Couples Cruise is like no other cruise.
We have a great group of passengers on
board that include swingers, nudists, kinky
couples into BDSM, Massage & Tantra
classes, and some of the most fun couples
you will ever meet.
You can go to the playrooms, check out the
dungeon, sign up for a massage class or
seminar or do none of the above and just
enjoy a cruise with no kids. It's your choice
on how you enjoy a Couples Cruise.
We do not allow any sex in public spaces,
so you won't have to worry about being
offended as long as you are ok with a little
nudity and topless women on the pool
deck.
So book your cruise this week and whether
it’s a big or a small ship, you will be in
store for the cruise of your lifetime.
You do not have to be nude, you can just
go topless or you can never take off your
bathing suit. In fact, some of the sexy
bathing suits are some of our hottest cruisers.
If you like Naughty in N’awlins, then you
will love a Couples Cruise. It’s just like
going to NIN and waking up in a different
port every morning. Same playrooms,
same erotic theme balls, same great people.

Wednesday Night Theme:
The World’s Largest
“Swinging Parade”
in the World!
Sponsored by the Largest Lifestyle Website:
SwingLifeStyle.com
Everyone loves a parade and we couldn’t think of a better
sponsor for our parade than the World’s Largest Lifestyle
Website: SwingLifeStyle.com (or as we all like to call it:
SLS).
Some have told me that another website is bigger, but I
don’t consider that a real lifestyle site. There are so many
fake ads, old ads that are over 10 years old, profiles that
are never on and that never e-mail replies and lots of misleading, fake ads on all of the porn sites.
Sorry, I’m just not interested in a site like that, I want a site
with real people and lots of them. That’s why so many
people have signed up with this website.
Sponsor Spotlight
The founders of SwingLifeStyle.com, Brian & Olga have
been married for over 7 years. After going to several titty
bars and a few nude beaches, it became clear to them that
they wanted more out of our sex lives than a bedroom
dance.
After many discussions they decided to try going to a
swingers club just to see what it was REALLY all about.
Their first club experience wasn’t that great, (how many
can relate to that!?) but it got them very excited none the
less. After a few weeks, they decided to try another club
and had an exhilarating experience. They didn’t “hook up”
with anyone, they were simply scouting, but the experience
was nothing short of amazing. They began attending regularly, and still do.
16
Thank goodness they gave it a 2nd chance or we wouldn’t
have SLS today. We’re proud to have SLS as our Parade
sponsor and we are glad to have them here this week.
Not only does this site have an incredible amount of traffic,
but they have been adding so many new features lately, it
has really enhanced the site. If you aren’t currently a member, or you haven’t signed in a while, then you need to stop
in and see all of the new updates.
They also founded the International Swinger’s Day (which
is this week!) to celebrate the swinging lifestyle both here
and around the world. This is why we are kicking off this
special week with a parade, so come parade with us as we
celebrate our sexual freedoms.
So take plenty of pictures while you are at Naughty in
N’awlins and post them to your SLS profile when you get
home.

be put off if you don’t like Sushi, they have one of the best
filets I have had in New Orleans. They have everything from
shrimp & scallops, to lobster, teriyaki glazed chicken, duck,
sea bass and more.
They really spent a lot of money on this new bar and restaurant and it is really stunning. Almost as pretty as the waitresses in sexy corsets. It’s just our kind of place.
This is an optional event, dinner is on your own and is not
included in any of our convention packages.

One of our favorite hidden gems in the French Quarter, this

dinner and then you’ll be done before the crowd kicks in.

Thursday Night Theme:
Big Top Circus
Sponsored by LifestyleLounge.com
Tonight’s party is not a dress up theme night (no, you do not
have to come dressed as a clown or a lion tamer), it is a night
that you can simply dress to impress and wear something sexy
and fun.
Dress like you are going
to your favorite nightclub,
restaurant, a hot date or
your favorite swinger
club. A lot of our attendees love dressing up for
the theme nights, but
everyone needs a break
from the costumes now
and then.
Even though there is no
“Official Theme Dress”
for tonight, we are going
to have a fun, 3 Ring
Circus theme with lots of
interesting acts and decor.
We will turn our ballroom
into a Big Top Circus complete with cotton candy, cupcakes, stilt
walkers, balloon making clowns (wait till you see the balloon
shapes), a tiger, an elephant, a contortionist, and even a circus
midget. Yep, you heard me right.
Anyway, tonight is just a fun night to party and meet other fun
couples for an entertaining circus like you’ve never seen before.

Sponsor Spotlight
Lifestyle Lounge has something generally different
from most sites. Most of their members are hot. I
mean really hot. I’m not sure what they did to
attract so many hot
couples... but they sure did.
The site also has a lot of great features and you can
tell that the people that run the site really want to be
on the cutting edge of technology. They were the 1st
to put a “Booty Call” feature on their site, the 1st
that had video chat rooms. They pioneered anonymous texting using your screen name on your smart
phone and many other social network
innovations.
The site has the most attractive photos as well as the
most active forums and chat rooms of any lifestyle
website on the internet.
Lifestyle Lounge is one of the largest travel agencies that specialize in clothing optional and alternative lifestyle resorts and cruises.
If you want to find a strong online community, with
lots of exceptional looking couples, then you should
give www.LifestyleLounge.com a
chance. If you do, make sure you
tell them that you heard about the
site at Naughty in N’awlins &
TessnBob sent you.
Continued from page 17
If you can’t make it tonight, just bring your pass on Thursday
night and check out the club. Tess and I did a lot of the decorating and we think it is a super, sexy club.
Note: Colette will provide all of the mixers

Red Dress Run
Friday Night Theme:
Sponsored by Kasidie.com
Red Dress Theme Night
The Red Dress Run is one of our favorite events of
the year and this year Naughty in N’awlins will be
taking place the same weekend as this fun event.
I know some of the guys will be skeptical about
wearing a Red Dress to tonight’s party, but just go
with it and have fun. If you don’t wear a Red Dress,
you will stick out and just look weird.
Tomorrow, Bourbon St will have almost 20,000 people in Red Dresses, over 12,000 of them will be
guys, so get with the spirit and put on that Red Dress
and you will be glad that you did.
We are going to have the Best Dressed Couple recognized tonight with a special prize, so make sure
you “(Red) Dess to Impress”.
Guys, this isn’t a drag show, you don’t have to get
all prettied up, wear high heels, makeup or anything
like that (although you can if you want to, you’ll just
look a little silly). Wear tennis shoes and be comfortable. Panties and bras are optional.

Saturday Afternoon Block Party
Sponsored by CrowneAvenue.com
Fulton Alley is more than just Bowling,
check out the craft cocktails and great food
Because Bourbon St will be so crowded with people in the
Red Dress Run, we are moving our traditional Saturday parties out of the Quarter to a brand new location and we think
you are going to love it. We are going to Fulton St and having our very own private Block Party with Fulton Alley and
the Apres Lounge. We are going to block off the street, roll
in an incredible 16 wheeler truck, wrapped specially for
CrowneAvenue.com and have an awesome party.
Fulton Street
The entrance to the red-bricked expanse that is Fulton Street
lies just outside Harrah's New Orleans Casino. Closed to
drive-through traffic, Fulton Street is a rare treasure for the
pedestrian explorer. As you stroll down Fulton, you'll enjoy
a unique blend of historic artistry and modern marvel. It’s a
great addition on your list of things to do in the city of New
Orleans.
Excitement, dining and great music are the core of the
vibrant Fulton Street. Here you’ll find exciting outdoor concerts, music and sports fan events year round. It's the most
exhilarating place to watch a game or just hang out with
other fans! With the annual "Mardi Gras on Fulton",
"Miracle on Fulton Street" and other events held regularly,
Fulton Street is always buzzing!
22
CrowneAvenue.com
We will be introducing you to a new player in the lifestyle
website market. While there are already a lot of great websites out there, the one thing that sets this newcomer apart is
it’s core theme which is to get out there and party. I know it
sounds strange that a website’s focus is to get you to turn
off the computer and head out, but this is exactly what they
want you to do. They have created a way to find people
around you so you can get together and meet other lifestyle
people easily. They are going to become the next great
“party starters”.
They are bringing one of their many semi trucks to the party
that you can enter to check out their site. They will be giving away free T shirts, memberships and other goodies just
for checking out their truck. Soon, these trucks will be
rolling throughout the country staging lifestyle bike rallies,
NASCAR events, festivals, regional gatherings as well as
visiting clubs and conventions.
Bowling for Freedom
On one side of the street is Fulton Alley, New Orleans’
newest and most unique entertainment bar & restaurant that
features 12 bowling lanes wrapped in an atmosphere of art,
music, craft food and cocktails. Not only will we
have the entire place to ourselves, but
CrowneAvenue.com is sponsoring a bowling tournament to raise money for the National Coalition
for Sexual Freedom (www.NCSFreedom.com).
We are looking for 20 teams to compete for the
grand prize: a free Couples Cruise on the
Independence of the Seas! Each team member
will automatically get a free lifetime membership
to CrowneAvenue.com and a shot at one of our
prizes worth over $10,000. The cost to enter the
tournament is $50 a couple with all proceeds
going to NCSF. Every team will get the chance to
bowl one game and the two teams with the highest total score will face off for the grand prize. We
will also have prizes for top overall score, most
strikes, best dressed team, and everyone that is in
the tournament will be entered to win a free
Naughty in N’awlins package for 2015.
A comfortable spot in the Apres Lounge
In order to enter, you must submit three couples (three girls
and three guys), to enter your team. You can sign up with
friends, put together a team from your favorite club, website
or just sign up and we will put you on a team if you don’t
have three two other couples to sign up with. To make the
tournament even more fun, create a name for your team.
Fulton Alley
Even if you are not into bowling, Fulton Alley is
in many ways the new gateway to all that New
Orleans has to offer. On the doorsteps of New
Orleans tricentennial, Fulton Alley is a nod to the
fun, flirty, laissez-le-bon-temps-rouler attitude
New Orleans is known for – in a new, modern, &
hip way. Both fun and refined, Fulton Alley is
characterized by a rich mix of uses – lounge &
leisure. Fulton Alley’s craft cocktail program is
curated by the leadership of Cure – Neal
Bodenheimer & Kirk Estopinal. Serving both a
mixture of traditional & craft cocktails, Fulton
Alley has one of the most extensive collections of
liquors in the New Orleans area.
Fulton Alley’s executive chef, Mike Nirenberg,
formerly of Tivoli & Lee, Oak and Delachaise,
has created a Southern-American-influenced
menu, including homemade meat pies, sliders,
deviled eggs and smoked, fried and glazed chicken wings. Snacks and sharable small plates are
primary on Nirenberg’s menu.
Apres Lounge
ness, elegance and excitement our attendees deserve. With a
top shelf Champagne & Cocktail menu, the finest mixology
and state of the art technology, Apres Lounge is a truly
unique venue in New Orleans.
This is the place to dance and get that Ultra Lounge feel.
You can even reserve a table or have bottle service with a
group of friends (their prices blow away Vegas, Miami and
NYC!) and have a truly VIP experience at phenomenal
prices. This venue has the ultimate privacy even though it is
right on Fulton St., you will feel like you are miles away in
the sexiest nightclub.
You can reserve your own private area for your friends
On the other side of the road is the brand new Apres

Shuttle Transportation
We will be shuttling everyone to and from the Astor Crowne

venues listed will be private for the Naughty in N’awlins
convention attendees only.

Saturday Night Theme:
“Naughty Gras”
Masquerade Ball
Mardi Gras Night on a Couples Cruise
Freedom of the Seas
Laissez les bons temps rouler
Laissez les bons temps rouler is a Cajun French phrase that
is literally translated from the English expression "Let the
good times roll." Tonight, we are going to have a good time
for sure.
On every Couples Cruise, there is a Mardi Gras Masquerade
Ball, so who better to sponsor tonight’s theme party than the
largest floating Mardi Gras party in the World? As a couple
that lives in New Orleans (we actually live only a couple of
blocks from this hotel), we know what it’s like to party like
it’s Mardi Gras.
Tonight we will feature one of our favorite acts, a sexy aerialist act, plenty of gogo dancers, hula hoopers and an interactive light wall you’ll have to give a try.

N’awlins 2014 Recommended Vendors
Vendor Area
We used to have a large vendor area with people selling sexy clothes
and themed outfits for our parties. Since so many of our parties are
outside of our hotel, it became hard for them to sell enough to make
it worthwhile to attend, especially with so many great boutique and
adult stores right here in the French Quarter.
This year we have custom corsets for sale in our vendor area, they
beat almost anything you'll find on Bourbon St. Come check them
out in our registration area before you venture out.
The French Quarter has a lot of great shops and many will give you
a discount if you show them your badges. Here are just a few of our
favorite places to shop locally. If you get great service (or even better yet, a discount), be sure to give them a Naughty Thank You card!
QT Pie: 241 Dauphine St.
Tess’ Favorite Store in the French Quarter, stop by and see why.
They are giving a 15% Discount if you show your badge. Just walk
down Bourbon St. to Bienville St. (2 blocks) and take a left. QTPie
is only one block off of Bourbon St.
Hustler: 111 Bourbon St.
Videos, DVD’s, Lingerie, toys, costumes. They have a LOT of nice
stuff, very upscale. There is a 20% off discount flyer in your welcome bag. Right across the street from the hotel (2 stories).

Check out our Hospitality Floor on 2M (Mezzanine Level).

our home for the night. Bonus: It’s close to the hotel AND
Colette.
Call 504-525-4755 to make your individual reservations and
ask for upstairs seating.
9:00 p.m. - till late Party at Colette
822 Gravier St.
Every year, we always finish up with a post-convention party
at Colette (just two blocks from the hotel). We have almost
100 people staying over Sunday night, so this party should
have a good turnout.
The parties on Sunday are not included in the convention, but
we wanted you to know about it, in case you were staying
over Sunday night. Bring your convention pass with you to
get the membership fee waived.
We will have clean sheets and towels available, but please, do
us a favor and clean up after yourselves. We want you to have
a great time, but respect those that will use the area after you
and leave it as you found it.
Well, that’s it, our entire, fun filled, naughty schedule. We
hope you have a great time and you come back next year and
do it all over again. We will have different clubs, bands,
entertainment, but the same fun and good times.
Thank you for coming, we hope to see you again soon,
We have trash cans in every room, so don’t be a “Condom
Creep” and throw them on the floor and we promise not to
come to your house and throw our condoms on your floor.
