Escape to the South of France in this chic, stylish elopement inspiration

I'm dreaming of a holiday in the South of France right now so this beautiful inspiration by French wedding planner MARIE CHICCHIRICHI has come along at the right time. Captured by Paris wedding photographer FRANKLYN K PHOTOGRAPHY, We find ourselves in the beautiful setting of the CHÂTEAU DE TOURREAU for this editorial which tells the story of a couple who get married whilst on holiday. For this intimate escape in the South of France, the atmosphere is carefree with a hint of glamour, and touch of the exotic. The bright and sunny colour palette, based on shades of blue, yellow, pinkish-beige and white, harmonises with the elegance of the Château. The bold floral varieties bring originality to the project: large bamboo canes, beautiful branches of ‘Oncidium Orchids', gorgeous peonies, double tulips, ranunculus, broom and sweet peas. The façade of the Château was used as a backdrop for the ceremony where a double floral arch was created around the door by LETTRE Ã ELISE EVENTS. The dinner table, with its fresh, gourmet floral display, is decorated with hand-painted plates made by a French artist. The table is set in the park's long driveway, so that all the guests can enjoy the view. The next day's brunch around the grey marble pool allows our fashionable couple – dressed by the great French fashion houses I admire, RIVES PARIS for him and RIME ARODAKY for her – to extend the experience in this bubble of softness.
