  • Inspiration: Yachts and Boats of Paris

    Getting married in Paris on a Boat or Yacht along the Seine River is one of the most romantic venues this wonderful city has to offer. There are many options available to privatise a boat or yacht along the Seine River.

    Some couples like the fact that you get to marry on the Seine River with the Eiffel Tower in the backdrop; that makes for an elegant and even sometimes luxurious affair, depending on the style and budget of the couple the selection varies.

    Whether you’re only a couple or you’re marrying with a wedding party there is always a size boat or yacht that can suit your needs; dinner, privatization, wedding ceremony, receptions or rehearsals.

    You can cruise down the Seine river while sipping champagne, and mingling with your loved ones, as you take in the Parisian breeze and sights, or you can have a full wedding event with food, dancing and a DJ. The options are plenty, contact us at info (at) weddinglightevents.com

  • Inspiration: Bridal Shoes

    All of our Pairs Destination wedding Brides and Grooms comes in all size and shapes and so does the preference for wedding day footwear!

    We’ve found that shoes are one of the most important aspects to having a great wedding day – if you’re walking around in uncomfortable shoes, or ones that you don’t really like you’re less likely to be able to focus on other aspects of your day. I also can’t stress enough the importance of great insoles and carrying bandages in your purse (just in case!).

    Whether you choose some snazzy Christian Louboutins or some Eco friendly and very comfy Toms. You’re shoes are a reflection of your wedding style and your overall life values.

    For this week’s wedding inspiration we wanted to showcase some pretty shoes and ideas.

    This was such a cute idea for the Groom to write a little note / poem on the bottom of his brides shoes – we love it!

    The shoe gods have put Dame Vivienne Westwood together with the Brazilian shoe brand Melissa to create these comfy mid-heel shoes, with the cutest heart detail! (here we see the bride wearing the white and gold combination of the Lady Dragon Love Heart).

     

     

    Toms wedding shoes

    Personally speaking, as a barefoot bride, sometimes it’s just impractical to wear heels. I’m a big fan of Toms and their philosophy to help children around the world and make shoes that are eco-conscious, so these simple white flats would work just fine. Toms has a wedding line of shoes  for Brides, Bridesmaids, Grooms, Groomsmen and Kids!

    ………..

    I’ve also seen on Etsy (if you are a DIY Bride you have to check out ETSY Weddings) tons of hand made and customizable  items, including shoes! Like these embroidered wedding converse ( with the wedding date and “I Do”).

     

    how are you selecting your wedding day shoes?

  • Advice: Before a Parisian “I do”

    Getting married in Paris, or any other destination location can be daunting for many couples. Sometime’s it can be the jet lag upon arrival and having to settle in for a few days to a new culture and environment or it can be the language barrier that can take a bit of adjusting. Whatever the reason,  we are here to make sure everything is smooth sailing – and that includes everything from help with the administrative aspects of marrying in France, to the hand-holding stage that might happen before you say the big “I Do” without your family and friends (if you’ve decided to elope).
