Sophie & Robbie
Wedding at Château de Jalesnes
France (Loire Valley)
Sophie and Robbie live in New York and chose to celebrate their wedding in France, at the Château de Jalesnes in the Loire Valley.
Their wedding decoration was elegant and very floral, with touches of red to remind the bride’s Chinese origins.
The bride and groom were getting ready in different rooms of the Château, and made their first look on the beautiful staircase, decorated for the occasion with a cascade of flowers!
The ceremony took place in front of the Château, under a magnificent arch decorated with pink, red and burgundy flowers. Their little dog Truffle accompanied Sophie and Robbie throughout the day, from the ceremony to the dance!
The day continued with a cocktail reception in the gardens of the Château, featuring an oyster bar, two signature cocktails and Truffle (the dog) napkins.
After the cocktail hour, the bride and groom opened the champagne with a saber before filling the champagne fountain. Everyone then sat down to dinner in the gardens behind the Château: a magnificent meal was served, lit up by garlands of lights.
The arrival of the macarons tower was followed by a surprise from the bride and groom: fireworks!
Then, after the first dance, everyone continued the party in the Château chapel dancing all the night.
