For this intimate chateau wedding shoot, the bride and groom got ready in separate indoor spaces.

The ceremony was held outdoors, and took advantage of the chateau and its lush greens as as the background. The colours cream, coral, and peach paired perfectly with the chateau’s façade.

Although a second dress was not used, the bride did have a second look. Something a bit more sleek and chic for the outdoor dinner reception.

Because this intimate chateau wedding reflects a destination wedding in Bordeaux, we really wanted to incorporate elements of Bordeaux into the details. We decided to gift canelés, which are original to the Bordeaux region, as wedding favours for guests to enjoy after the celebration.

We also intentionally set the silverware according to the rules for a French table, with the silverware facing down in order to showcase its silver hallmark stamp.
