01 — The wedding weekend
This multi-day Paris wedding began with a refined welcome dinner in a private mansion, before the wedding day continued at the Ritz Paris. Separating the celebration across two distinctive venues gave guests a relaxed first evening and allowed the wedding day to unfold through the Ritz suites, private garden and ballroom. The photography documents both settings as one coherent Paris wedding story.
02 — Wedding morning
The wedding morning took place in elegant hotel suites in Paris. The bride prepared with her bridesmaids while the groom and his groomsmen dressed in classic black tie. These quiet preparations create some of the most personal photographs of the day: the wedding dress, the invitation suite, the rings, the final adjustments and the spontaneous moments shared with close friends.
03 — The ceremony
The outdoor ceremony was designed around white flowers, natural greenery and the architecture of the Paris venue. The aisle, the garden and the arrival of the guests created an elegant setting for the vows. The photographs combine wide views of the floral design with emotional moments from the ceremony and the newlyweds’ recessional.
04 — Black tie portraits
Portraits were created with a natural editorial approach, using the garden, the fountain and the palace façades as a backdrop. Alongside the bride and groom, the wedding party and guests were photographed in black tie and evening outfits. The result is a modern record of the style, energy and personalities present throughout the celebration.
05 — The reception
The evening continued with champagne, speeches, a candlelit dinner, cake cutting and live entertainment. The reception photography focuses on atmosphere as much as decoration: candlelight, table styling, reactions during speeches, fine dining and the movement of the party. Together, these images tell the complete story of a luxury wedding weekend in Paris.
