[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]The bride’s vision for a modern and sophisticated wedding was beautifully realized in every aspect of the design and ambiance. Guests were asked to adhere to a black-tie dress code, adding an extra layer of elegance to the day. The secular ceremony was imagined as a runway show, with chairs arranged to mimic a fashion show setting, perfectly framing the bridal procession. Guests were invited to bring their drinks to the ceremony, creating a chic yet relaxed atmosphere.

The reception took place inside the chateau’s courtyard, under a canopy of twinkling stars. The aim was to blend elegance with a laid-back vibe, achieved by serving shared plates, encouraging a communal and intimate dining experience. The culinary highlight was a grand pavlova adorned with blackberries and blueberries, adding a modern twist to the meal’s conclusion, along with espresso martinis that offered a sophisticated finish to the night before the party begins.[/field]

[field title=”Food & Drink”]The culinary experience at the wedding was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to the exceptional talents of caterer Amandine from Citron Pavot. The bride herself exclaimed at the end of the meal, “I want to kiss you on the mouth,” expressing how perfect and delicious everything was. The festivities began with a cocktail hour featuring an array of canapés and an impressive oyster bar tower. The couple kicked off the cocktail hour by toasting each other with an oyster.

For the main meal, the guests were treated to a variety of homemade dishes, crafted from high-quality ingredients and served as shared plates on the tables. The selection included salmon, fresh tomatoes, asparagus, truffle pasta, and other delightful dishes that fostered a chic yet convivial atmosphere.

For dessert, the couple opted for a grand pavlova, generously topped with blackberries and blueberries. The guests’ reactions to the first bite were priceless, as the dessert was nothing short of incredible. Before serving this show-stopping pavlova to their guests, the bride and groom had a bit of fun, sprinkling it with powdered sugar themselves.

Some expresso Martinis were served just before the party begins

[field title=”Florals & Decor”]The floral arrangements for the wedding ceremony were a array of pastel hues, with each composition along the ceremony runway showcasing a unique blend of colors and flower types. The arrangements included arum lilies, sweet peas, peonies, hydrangeas, carnations, roses, and many more, all without any added foliage, allowing the flowers themselves to shine.

The ground arch at the ceremony was a masterpiece in blue, pink, with touches of white and yellow, creating an elegant effect by varying the heights of the flowers.

For the table designs, floral compositions were placed at the ends of each table, with between three to six arrangements per table depending on their length. These were complemented by elegant sets of three wine glasses and adorned with candles, enhancing the romantic and sophisticated ambiance of the celebration.[/field]

[field title=”Readings, Ceremony Music, Reception Songs”]Music played a pivotal role in setting the tone for this wedding, with a deliberate choice to feature a live band instead of a DJ. During the ceremony and cocktail hour, the delicate strains of two violinists and a bassist created an enchanting atmosphere. As the evening progressed, the musical experience evolved into a lively celebration with a larger ensemble. The party was energized by a dynamic group featuring two vocalists, a saxophonist, a guitarist, a pianist, and a trumpeter, and other musicians ensuring a vibrant and unforgettable ambiance that had everyone on their feet.[/field]
