Charming Elopement Wedding
This month we venture to the picturesque countryside of south-west France for a charming elopement celebration.
Rebecca and Kyle
Hometown: Indiana, USA
Wedding Date: September 11, 2009
Wedding Colors: Ivory and Berry-blue
Wedding Location: Stunning 12th Century Abbey located in the Languedoc region of south-west France. Inquire at Chateau & Villa Weddings for more details!
Wedding highlights: We had lots of fun organizing this intimate elopement for Beckie and Kyle. After the long flight from the USA, they were able to enjoy a good night’s sleep in the cottage located on the grounds of the Abbey before being woken up bright and early the next morning by our hairdresser. The look Beckie wanted to achieve was inspired by the Regency hairstyle Kate Winslet wore in the Titanic film and the following style worn by Blake Lively. We think she did a great job! We’re sure you will agree from the photos below.
Beckie’s dress was inspired by 18th century French gowns and Kyle’s attire was made respecting the same era. They made a handsome couple and blended in wonderfully with the surrounding scenery. A fun and more contemporary touch was added by the matching buttonhole and bouquet that Beckie had made for her back home as well as Beckie’s fab pumps!
Our English-speaking celebrant and professional wedding photographer provided the finishing touches to this unforgettable day.
Kyle and Beckie enjoyed lunch in the Abbey’s restaurant before heading off on their honeymoon spent travelling around picturesque villages and towns in south-west France.
“Félicitations” to them both!
