Set in the heart of the Loire Valley, this dreamy French château played host to a wedding that felt straight from the pages of a modern fairytale. From the grandeur of the venue to the deeply personal cultural traditions woven throughout the day, every detail reflected the couple’s beautiful love story.

It was an honor to see this wedding featured on French Wedding Style, one of the most respected publications for couples planning a wedding in France.

Over the weekend, my goal was to document every ceremony with respect and discretion, capturing both the grand moments and the quiet, emotional details in between.
