A FRENCH RIVIERA WEDDING

A beautiful weekend on the French Riviera, in the mountainside village of Eze, a couple in love stand beaming and blushing, amidst their families and all of their friends. We dined and we cheered, Nouvelle Vague filled the air and a bride shone her smile cheek to cheek. The sky stretched proud over St Jean Cap Ferrat, three shades of blue I could see, champagne was drunk and kisses exchanged as the sun set slowly in the sea…

The Venue: Chevre D’or hotel, Eze // The Dress: Reem Acra // Wedding Planner: Lavender & Rose Weddings // Florals: Wayne Riley Flowers // Music provided by Nouvelle Vague

Thank you so much to this most beautiful pair for allowing me to photograph their incredible wedding weekend. From Friday night’s festivities to Sunday on Paloma beach, it was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Thank you too to Kerry, Jennifer & Sarah for their help planning and coordinating this wedding. You won’t find better wedding planners on the French Riviera than Lavender & Rose.

You can also check out Style Me Pretty’s very lovely feature of this French wedding too!

This weekend we’re back to the south of France not far from Cannes for a wedding at Chateau Castellaras in Mougins with those Lavender & Rose ladies. It’s my first time there but my second trip to back to France for weddings in two weeks, which means another chance to entice my freckles out of their winter hibernation. Emma Jane is heading to a wedding at Chateau Rigaud in Bordeaux for her second time also and she’s sounding pretty excited. We’re very lucky, very busy girls indeed.

In between shooting, editing, emailing, meeting and blogging, I also do a little bit of instagramming too. You can check out some sneaky previews of my most recent wedding days and a little bit of our daily pretty also, if you’re that way inclined…

  • A ONCE WED FEATURE

    I had both the lovely Emily at Once Wed and the incredibly cool Kat at RockNRollBride both write beautiful features on my most recent wedding. I will admit that I thought this would be a popular one when I spoke to Ella about Sam’s suit and pried some details from her about that dress. I didn’t know though, that she was going to look as amazing as she did, nor that there would be a surprise song during the wedding…

    It’s always excellent when I have my work featured, but to have a double post between the US and the UK was really exciting. I know a lot of my ideal brides look to Once Wed for inspiration, as do I as a photographer, so it’s been great to organise meets with a whole new audience. I have an exceptionally busy next few weeks on my hands!

    If you missed Ella & Sam’s posts online, you can still catch up with Once Wed and RockNRoll Bride too.
    Thank you both, for your beautiful posts.

    A quick sneak of L&G’s wedding on Saturday at the ever-so-London Haymarket Hotel. I had to steal them outside and away from the crowd for a couple of minutes, before they got hauled back inside for the party!

  • TRULY GRATEFUL

    I am always enamoured with nights like this one.

    An evening at home with my husband, in our little London flat, sat outside under the heater on the terrace, listening to our neighbour’s winter concert, with a bottle of Oyster Bay. Feeling alive and truly grateful for life and love, forever surprised at how sweet London can be.

    It’s been a phenomenal start to the year. I am already overwhelmed by what’s in store, but overwhelmed in the best way possible.

  • AN AIX-EN-PROVENCE WEDDING

    It is always special photographing a wedding day, but sometimes a little bit even more special when the bride is a wedding blogger who also happens to be exceptionally lovely and is marrying her husband under a bright blue sky. Nick & Georgia flew me to France to photograph their wedding weekend in Provence at Chateau Grimaldi and for this, I am eternally grateful.
