Remember The Colours Green, Gold and Purple.
The origins of Mardi Gras in New Orleans dates back to Medieval times in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries. The parades and floats weren’t used for celebrating until the late 18th century where extravagant costumes and decorative floats paraded the streets of New Orleans and during this time the official colours of Mardi Gras were created. During this time the Russian Grand Duke Alexis Romanoff was visiting at the time and in honor of his family, a group of businessmen introduced the official colours of purple, green, and gold which were Grand Duke Alexis Romanoff’s family colours. Purple stands for justice; gold for power and green for faith.
Now you know the history behind those three colours, it’s time to decorate and ‘Let the Good Times Roll’.
