From the bride and the groom: “We wanted and intimate and romantic wedding with close friends and family. Our venue was a Palace! We loved the gold details with marbles, tall ceilings, the food was incredible, our room was amazing (we had or own private roof terrace with views of the Eiffel tower), we loved EVERYTHING!”

“We wanted to have quite a formal event, something elegant yet romantic and dreamy in some way. Our venue offered just the right setting for this, with its historical spaces, ornate rooms, crystal chandeliers, and spaces really well suited to the size of our party. We wanted the colours and flowers to reflect the season (Spring). From the beginning we decided on a nude colour palette, so light peach, very light pinks and tones of creams and whites.”

“For the bridal bouquets we chose ombre ranunculus, garden roses, peonies, and astilbe. I wanted the bouquet to represent spring in nude colours.”

“The wedding dress was by Michal Medina and it had a fairly long train, was fitted with a hint of sheer and lace and had a dramatic back. I also had a beautiful Chapel veil with lace details all around the edges to compliment the train. I tried it on for 5 minutes at Panache Beverly Hills and didn’t think too much of it until I got home and saw how beautiful it looked in pictures. I had to get it once I saw how beautifully it photographed. I really love the back and the long train!”

“The drinks reception held on the private terrace of the venue, with views over the Eiffel tower. We had a banquet style dinner, with one long dining table seating 40 guests, 20 each side. We had flower centrepieces spread all along the table. I wanted lots of candles and loved the looks of church candles, so we had two of these in between the centerpieces. I loved the clean yet very romantic and elegant look of our table! ”

“Apart from our jazz band, we had a photobooth and a caricaturist to entertain our guests during cocktails reception. Caricaturists are a classic in Montmartre soi t was a great Parisian touch! ”

“Our wedding planner arranged a photo of us with all of our guests holding sparklers with the twinkling Eiffel tower at the back at midnight. It was fun and magival at the same time! We also loved our wedding stationery. Paper & Honey created for us some unique, absolutely gorgeous invitations inspired from our wedding venue, with some gold leaves and classic calligraphy.  The photobooth and caricaturists were a great hit. It was really fun to receive all the photos of our guests who had taken crazy pictures at the photobooth after the wedding, especially as we missed some of the cocktails reception as we were taking pictures around Paris. ”

“I loved the ruffled cakes and we had one made in ombre nude colours to match with our colour palette. It looked like a flower!”

“My advice to brides who are planning their destination wedding in France is to go with Et Voila Weddings as your wedding planner! I interviewed about 10 wedding planners in France and had the best chemistry with Anne-Laure within minutes of talking with her. She knew exactly what I wanted (my vision) and made me feel so comfortable to plan a destination wedding. Most importantly, she was so responsive with my emails/questions even with the time difference (London and California).”
