Sparkly Bridal Separates At Luxe Provence Wedding

Photography by Les Bandits

When it comes to throwing a wedding that's equal parts historic charm, modern flair, and just the right amount of fun, Alix & Raphaël absolutely understood the assignment. Set against the luxurious backdrop of The Domaines de Patras, a 1735 estate once frequented by French royalty (no big deal), this celebration was anything but ordinary. From dazzling sparkly bridal separates to a champagne spray that could rival Formula 1 podiums, these two infused every moment with glamour and personality. Oh, and let’s not forget the flower men stealing the show or the DIY pink heart-shaped sunglasses, a wedding favour AND a photo op? Genius. Alix & Raphaël brought the perfect blend of Provençal tradition, modern elegance, and playful vibes to their big day, and we’re here for all of it.

Some of our favourite moments of the wedding day were celebrating in a memorable way with our closest friends and bringing a magical moment to the people closest to us. Our secular ceremony and entrance to dinner were also standout memories.

Les Domaines de Patras Provence Wedding

Alix & Raphaël chose to celebrate their wedding day in one of the most memorable ways by choosing The Domaines de Patras for their venue. Built in 1735, the Estate was once a holiday resort for the last kings of France before it was a coaching inn after the Revolution. Completely renovated ten years ago, the Estate has used its luxurious history to show off pure luxurious Provençal tradition. With stunning sparkly bridal separates, an epic champagne spray and iconic flower men, Alix & Raphaël completely nailed the balance of luxury and glamour while still being modern and relaxed. One epic DIY project we have to mention is that the couple wrote their names across many pink heart-shaped sunglasses for the wedding reception, which made for some truly iconic wedding photos!
