Paris Wedding: Jan and Jeremy from California, USA
Our dear clients Jan and Jeremy from San Diego married in Paris yesterday under a big cloudy sky and hardly a drop of rain. With 32 friends and family it was one of the biggest weddings we’ve organized this year but we love a good challenge! Everything ran like clockwork, from the ceremony in front of the Eiffel Tower to the boat ride along the Seine… not to mention the delicious reception dinner at L’Ilot Vache. Olivier had the pleasure of accompanying the happy couple on their intimate photo tour of Paris – here’s a sneak peak of what they got up to!

Jan and Jeremy were a joy to work with and we loved hearing their romantic tales – Jan’s dress was worn not only by her mother but also her mother’s friend, then it was tailored to fit Jan by Jeremy’s mother… that’s her something borrowed ticked off! Oh and if you’re wondering (and we know you are) that beautiful bouquet was made by our friend Estelle from Estelle Flowers.

Outdoor Paris Wedding and Love Lock Bridge
Today we are organizing an intimate wedding at an outdoor location here in Paris, and on my, way with my bicycle I couldn’t help but snap a photo of all the padlocks along this bridge on the Seine River.
The Love Lock bridge has a fascinating history here in Paris, especially for romantic couples who come from all over the world to confess their love to each other, attach their padlocks then throw the keys in the Seine River as a symbol of their everlasting love for each other. For others, some Parisians, it’s a sight for sore eyes that has constantly been a battle between romanticism and excess (they’ve even gone so far as to have asked the city hall to remove them, to no avail, as they were soon back within a week or so).
L’amour Fou. We love it!

No amount of planning can control the weather on your wedding day. We all know that Paris is a beautiful city. The Eiffel Tower, the view from Cafe de la Paix, the Seine: what’s not to love?

Are you the outdoorsy kind? Why not get married by the Seine. There are plenty of bridges and overpasses. Quai de la Tournelle is the embankment underneath Pont de l’Archevêché, the bridge with the famous “love locks” is both quirky and romantic. You can also enjoy a beautiful view of both Notre Dame and the river.
The Importance of a Great Wedding Photography On a Rainy Day
Luckily, Paris has many iconic and romantic backdrops for wedding photos. The typical Parisian architecture such as the Haussmann-style buildings lends a majestic look to even the gloomiest of days. If you are using one of our more experienced photographers, you’ll be whisked to the quaintest hidden areas that make for lovely photography regardless of weather.
Passage du Grand Cerf – Rue Montorgeuil The lobbies of the most elegant hotels also create excellent backdrops, as most have marble floors, beautiful details, and high ceilings. There are a few hotels, centrally located in Paris that offer a picturesque backdrop, from their lobbies, staircases, and courtyards to their rooms.
