Floral design by Miss Rose By Perrine is the exclamation mark on the day. Visit the full gallery to fall in love with all of the special moments and carefully curated details.
From AMV Weddings... Among well-kept lawns and cypress avenues on the stunning peninsula of Cap Ferrat is Villa Ephrussi, the most monumental villa of the French Riviera and a symbol of la Belle Epoque. This was the privileged setting where our love story unfolded. We wanted to balance the formal politesse of a luxury affair and the playful indulgence of an exuberant modern couple who also wants to have fun. In the Cote d’Azur, after all, luxury, art and fun intertwine! The challenge was bringing to life something that balances elegantly between the opulent and the intimate.
As guests enter the villa through its “patio couvert” a covered patio inspired by a cruise ship's atrium, they immediately find themselves immersed in the French garden. The large parterre is split by water features dancing to Strauss' music. This was the perfect setting for our dining area. Designed by Amanda Virga of AMV Weddings with florals by Miss Rose By Perrine, the pink tones of the tablescape echoed the pink marbles of the villa’s walls, making the entire dinner area feel organically connected to the space.
The cake area completed the dinner setup and the sweetheart table in similar tones. Next to the dining area is the Italian Garden. The ceremony took place here, overlooking the bay where the spraunciest of travellers moor their super-yachts. The isle and arch were conceived to make an immediate visual impression. Our bride walked ceremonially down a vast horseshoe-shaped stairway and through an isle of pastel florals. Indeed, here the salty tang from the sea combines with the scent of hundreds of roses and creates a multisensory experience that cannot be described but as "the quintessence of true luxury". The sun poured in through the arch illuminating our bride’s gown. The voluminous frothy tulle dress by Nesty Odina was the ideal choice; delicate yet strong, pure yet sexy. The bridal look was completed by a statement headpiece by Megan Therese.
