    Inspiration: An Enchanting Wedding in the Countryside of Normandy

    As wedding planners, we are always looking for inspiration to pull from for our own events. This past summer, our fabulous photographer, Olivier Lalin of WeddingLight Photography, photographed a lovely pink-hued wedding in the countryside of Normandy. Have we caught your attention yet?

    Gathering some 250 friends and family, this lovely couple decided to have two full days of festivities to celebrate their wedding.

    On a gorgeous summer day in July, guests enter the venue on a candle lit path.French Normandy countryside weddingThe reception was held in a charming garden just a few hours from the French capital. Although a tent was set up to cover the area, it was beautifully decorated in fairy lights, lush pink and creme-colored florals, as well as hanging white wisteria plants for a whimsical and romantic interior. Quite enchanting! French Normandy countryside wedding

    Just outside the tent, a photo booth was set up for guests to enjoy throughout the evening. Isn’t that hand painted backdrop just incredible? The lanterns also provide a nice touch, too.

Don’t you?Menus with created with the bride and groom’s initials monogrammed at the top and finished with a bold pink hand-written font for a simple, yet elegant look.The table set up was equally as dreamy with an eclectic array of glass vases and pink and creme-colored floral arrangements dispersed down the center of the table. Mercury glass candle holders were also arranged to complement the florals. As for the tableware, vintage pink floral plates were used with silver flatware and crystal glasses trimmed in gold to finalize the presentation.

  • French Country Style Wedding in Champagne Region

    Just 1.5 hours from Paris by train in the Champagne region of Epernay is  Le Chateau de Pierry.  This charming French Chateau also makes its own champagne (Vignoble Champenois), and offer champagne tasting in their wine cellar where the decor a lot like its champagne; remains classic & timeless dating from the 18th century. Getting married in France certainly has its little pleasures; there are many beautiful old style french chateau not far from Paris that have much of their beautiful decor still in tact.

    The guests were blown away by the  breathtaking view overlooking the wine fields in the heart of the Champagne country.

    There is  a massive English style garden for outdoor cocktails and  dancing.  Here the couple decided on using the garden  for the cocktail hour. For live music there was a Jazz Quartet that got the crowd relaxed and in a festive mood.  The ambiance was set from the ceremony all the way to the reception.

    Rose petals on a red carpet was the makeshift stage for the first dance, as guests snapped away. Quelle Classe!
