Married at First Sight is taking the party to The Big Easy for Season 11.

The eleventh season of Married at First Sight was filmed in New Orleans, LA earlier this year and will premiere tonight at 8PM ET/PT on Lifetime with back-to-back broadcasts of a hour-long Matchmaking Special and a two-hour Kickoff Special.
New Orleans has the smallest population of any city Married at First Sight has ever filmed in, making the matchmaking job of returning MAFS experts Dr. Pepper Schwartz, Pastor Calvin Roberson, and Dr. Viviana Coles more difficult than usual.
Similar to prior seasons, Married at First Sight's eleventh season will feature strangers meeting at the wedding altar and then spending the next eight weeks embarking on a honeymoon, moving in together, and navigating the joys and struggles of daily life together.
And at the end of the eight-week experiment, Married at First Sight's five Season 11 couples will reach "Decision Day" and have to decide whether to remain married or decide to end their marriages and divorce.
