What could be more romantic that trading vows in the City of Light? Whether you’re planning your affair in a top-notch Parisian hotel like LeBristol, in a private garden, on a yacht cruise along the River Siene, or in a luxurious castle like the Chateau de Chantilly, the Chateau de Breteuil, or the always-lovely Chateau de Challain (in Nantes)—you’ll be sure to find the air filled with love.
After choosing your perfect date and location, spend some time with your Paris wedding photographer planning your engagement and wedding photo shoots. There are infinite photographic possibilities in this picturesque city – your photographer can help you narrow down the choices. Think about what makes you and your beloved unique, what you love to do, and what you love about France. Then, your Paris wedding photographer can craft a session that is uniquely “you.”
Maybe you and your sweetie are city-folks who love great architecture – clean lines, neat urban-scapes. You could put on some stylish clothes and spend some time strolling (and smooching) around town. Most of the big landmarks are close together in this incredibly walk-able city, so you should easily be able to work in Paris favorites like the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and the Notre-Dame Cathedral without making it cheesy.
Spend some time soaking up history – and making some beautiful pictures – in the gorgeous Marais Quarters. Steal a kiss from your beloved under the arches of the famous Place des Vosges, then stroll along the River Siene. After all that, stop for a coffee or a gelato at one of the fabulous street-side cafes and have your photographer snap some shots of the two of you relaxing and enjoying the views.
Or, consider packing a picnic and heading to one of the many area castles with grounds open to the public. Your Paris wedding photographer can get some great pics of you and your beloved sipping wine and tasting baguettes under the shade in the gardens of the Chateau de Sceaux.
No matter what spots you choose for your wedding and photos, we’re confident that it will be a beautiful occasion. Just be sure to take plenty of time to really enjoy the experience – it’s your special day!
