Besides being the most romantic city in the world for spring, summer and autumn weddings, the appeal of Paris also spreads across the winter months.
Cozy winter weddings are rising in popularity, so we want to invite those couples dreaming of tying the knot in a snug yet scenic setting, to dream away with us on a few winter wedding ideas.
Be it a sumptuous mansion in the city centre, a Cinderella chateau outside of Paris, or a petit chalet in the French Alps –winter weddings in France have all kinds of charm.
Decoration can be simple & homemade, romantic& relaxed, or elegant & refined – depending on your wedding vision.
Choose aromatic elements with comforting scents like pine, berries, chocolate and pâtisseries to make your guests feel welcome &warm. Red touches here and there accompanied by a trail of warm light, add to the intimate ambiance.
Ice sculptures, sophisticated floral arrangements, glass crystals and candle light evoke the snow covered outdoors.
Wintery place cards & menus: another simple but charming touch creating cohesion and continuity.
For the cocktail, think warm foods & drinks, with soft accents. Treat your guests to hot mulled wine, freshly baked pain d’epices and decadent chocolate delights.
A winter reception dinner can fuse true French tradition with familiar winter flavors and be accompanied by soft lounge music or warm jazz and the sizzle of open fire in the fire place.
Voilà just some of our ideas on winter weddings, stay tuned for part deux!
