Well, we're just two best friends of 15+ years trying to create a space where we feel safe. It's no surprise that openly queer spaces are hard to come by. Especially for queer women. 

​

We started Her Haus in 2022 with our previous partners alongside us in order to "have somewhere to go." It was just that simple idea! It started off as a queer little dream we cooked up because being more femme presenting lesbians in New Orleans was tough. We would find ourself walking into bars and automatically being pinned as straight women taking up space in gay bars. We were treated poorly, ostracized and bullied. SO! We went to work.

Once upon a summer we found ourselves in Orlando, FL. On Saturday nights the girls ruled the gay scene- it was "Girl The Party" time at Southern Nights. We found ourselves in the depths of girl heaven. Looking around at the pure joy and euphoria of this night was.....unreal. So, why not bring something like it back home?

​

We sat down and talked logistics, found a venue willing to hold our first pop-up party and Decadence For the Girls was well on its way! Fast forward just a bit! Our first event was so successful we were offered a monthly residency at The Bourbon Pub and Parade on Bourbon every first Friday of the month. We've been cookin' up events and pop-ups ever since!
