What Made Our Day Unique
Definitely the venue - Maison de la Vaure is a former cognac estate and was the perfect size for our 60 guests. We married in a beautiful, rustic barn draped with festoon lighting before moving into the courtyard at the back for the wedding breakfast. Everyone commented on how amazing the food was; big rustic sharing platters and the most delicious wine; our floral designer, Faith created hanging garlands across the tables with hanging Edison lights, which looked stunning and really made use of the space.

Sassi Holford Wedding Dress

Real bride, Sam's strapless Sassi Holford wedding dress is timeless, just like this rustic French wedding with a beautiful blue colour scheme and fabulous lighting. They've included everything they love from Disney table names to neon signs and smoke bombs, with everything fusing together effortlessly.

Inspiration & Styling
More than anything, we wanted our guests to have a very French experience. The barn we married in was pretty rustic, and we wanted our styling to reflect this throughout, but in a super-chic way. Ajna, our stylist, was just incredible to work with. She very patiently listened to my rambling vision and somehow brought it to life in the most magical way. Ajna really sweated the small stuff - I knew we were in safe hands but what she created was just, wow.
