Hiding behind closed doors after saying "I Don't Think So," runaways rest easy in the most spacious guestrooms in New Orleans, while associates screen all incoming phone calls to avoid midnight "please come back to me" pleas. The Recovery Concierge, famous for relieving Big Easy indulgences, concentrates on remedies for a broken heart, including a list of nearby jewelry stores to reset the stone and beauty salons for a new "disguise me" haircut.

With the ball and chain freed and a pocket full of money to burn, the Shops at Canal Place offer a little "retail therapy," while the nearby French Quarter bestows plenty of mischief for the ex-bride ready to jump into the single life again. Drawing inspiration from the big-screen "Runaway Bride," ladies enjoy an in-room screening of the aforementioned movie and seek cuisine comfort from Cafe Adelaide -- a Commander's Palace Family of Restaurants. Balance Spa at Loews New Orleans Hotel pampers with rejuvenating treatments and full fitness facility including indoor lap pool.
