An unforgettable wedding at the Château de Varennes
On an unforgettable day in May, Mae and Richard tied the knot in one of the most romantic locations in France, the breathtaking Château de Varennes in the picturesque Burgundy region. It was a day full of love, laughter and unforgettable moments that touched the hearts of everyone present.
A love story written by fate
Mae and Richard got to know each other the good old fashioned way: A mutual friend was convinced that the two would be perfect for each other. After several attempts, they finally met – and the chemistry was right straight away. Their first date followed just a few days after their first meeting, and a few weeks later they went on their first trip together. They have been exploring the world together for over five years now and have found their soul mates in each other.
A wedding ceremony like in a picture book
The wedding ceremony took place in the beautiful chapel of the Château de Varennes, which was artfully decorated for this special occasion. The couple’s design concept, which they realized with the help of Wedding Planner Peony Moments, was a modern interpretation of white baby’s breath arranged in a large semi-circle on the floor of the chapel. This simple elegance harmonized perfectly and created a magical atmosphere.
A reception full of romance and charm
A touch of vintage romance was added for the reception. The tables were set with unique blue landscape plates and light blue linen cloths, which added a special touch to the ambience of the château. The decoration by the florists Un été à la campagne with gypsophila looked fine and elegant on the light blue tables. These carefully selected details created an incomparable atmosphere and allowed guests to immerse themselves in another time.
Moments of connection and joy
Following the ceremony, Mae and Richard celebrated with their closest friends and family. There was a champagne pyramid, laughter, dancing and sharing of stories recounting the couple’s journey to this point. Another highlight was the French cream puff wedding cake. Every aspect of this wedding reflected the love and commitment that Mae and Richard have for each other.
