Who is Will Clapp wife Lizzie Cousins?

Lizzie Cousins was at the Loews New Orleans when Will Clapp picked up his tuxedo.

They won’t soon forget it.

On March 13, just 24 hours after the couple’s wedding, Governor John Bel Edwards suspended all events with more than 250 attendees due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The couple had been following the news, but up until that time, New Orleans had just suspended the St. Patrick’s Day parades; no additional restrictions had been put in place.

Following Edwards’ declaration, Clapp and Cousins’ weekend descended into complete chaos.

That is due, in part, to the guest list. They had received 300 RSVPs for their wedding, and now they had 24 hours to reduce the number of guests to 250 or less.

Many visitors decided to go on their own.

Many of the older people chose not to attend, according to cousins who have since adopted Clapp’s last name, stating they’d rather be safe than sorry. Additionally, the two knew a number of people whose flights had already been postponed.

One of their pals, former Saints tight end Dan Arnold, also had to cancel at the last minute since he had his own wedding coming up and didn’t want to be detained in New Orleans.

KJ Malone, a fellow former LSU football player, served as Will’s best man, and the Malone family—including KJ’s father, NBA legend Karl Malone—was also invited to the wedding. However, the Malone family declined due to their previous trips.

The wedding nonetheless took place, but with fewer guests than had been planned. Our Lady of the Rosary Church hosted the ceremony, and the Pavilion of the Two Sisters hosted the reception.

It was chaotic for us, but we actually got lucky, Clapp said, noting that the 10-person restriction rule for events was implemented just days afterward.
