Hold on to your women, men. The Ritz-Carlton New Orleans is offering a Mardi Gras package that will make women swoon.

The soulful jazz singer and New Orleans' favorite son teamed up with the Ritz-Carlton in New Orleans to offer the "Lundi Gras Ride of a Lifetime" package. Purchasers of this daily pampering prize will ride with Connick Jr. in his Krewe of Orpheus during the parade held the day before Mardi Gras: Monday, Feb. 23.

Here's how it goes down:

You'll get decked out in your best Mardi Gras digs, complete with beads and accessories, and a videographer will document the 12-hour excursion. When you're not on the ride of your life with the New Orleans native, you'll have access to a private limo (which eases any and all concerns about getting lost in the crowd at Mardi Gras).

The package includes a two-night stay in the Ritz-Carlton Suite, one of the most luxurious suites in town overlooking the French Quarter and Canal Street (please adjust your expectations: It's unlikely Harry Connick, Jr. will be staying in the same suite).

The price? A cool $59,500 for two people. We'd bet that for that dough, he might even sing you a little song...
