French Riviera
Before starting planning Amaury and I both had envisioned a long weekend celebrating in Amaury's home in the South of France with family and friends. We wanted an opportunity for all the people we love to meet, make new friends, all while enjoying the simple pleasures the Cote d'Azur has to offer. Our colour palette mixed blush, coral and peach with pops of berry and was accented with touches of green, gold, and ivory. Our style vision was what the French call "champêtre." We envisioned a relaxed and romantic atmosphere highlighted by the charm and beauty of the south of France. The venue and its views were the true highlights of our wedding. While weddings are a ton of work and certainly take a village, the day goes by so so fast. Try to enjoy the time and experience and remember the day is wonderful, but it's really about celebrating starting a life together with your partner.
Wedding Planner & Photographer
When I was searching for a wedding planner it was extremely important to me to find someone from the area who specialised in planning French weddings. I did extensive research online and at first, it was challenging to find a planner that did not work mainly on destination weddings. However, I was lucky enough to stumble upon Julie & Paul of MadeInYou's work through my research. After skyping with them I knew they were exactly what we were looking for. Our planner, Julie, was integral in helping us find our photographer Saya, it was really important to have a good feeling and connection with the photographer we decided to hire. From the very first time we Skype chatted with Saya we had that feeling. She was so warm and bubbly and just seemed to immediately understand both what we were looking for and what our hesitations were. Lastly, her photos were absolutely stunning and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives.
