Intimate Pastel Normandy Wedding In Shades Of Spring
The Planning
Design / Vibe / Vision
Our vision was to create a once in a lifetime, French country chic wedding celebration that is romantic and intimate with distinctive fine art touches and a gentle nod to the Normandy region!
Proposal Story
The couple was engaged in November of 2019. The groom planned a whole day, starting with the Met - one of the bride's favorite places in the world. Afterward, they went to Central Park - another one of her favorite places - for a long walk. They ended up at their "spot" which is a hill nestled in some trees and when the bride turned around to settle in, the groom was down on one knee. Later, the bride's best friend and her partner popped out to surprise the couple with champagne and flowers!
