Time does things beautifully. After 7 years of absence in their respective lives, Caroline and Paul find themselves in Pornic, where their love story begins.

Caroline and Paul got married in August 2022. During their first romantic trip, Paul decided to propose to Caroline on the beautiful island of Sicily. A wonderful moment that the two lovers will never forget. Caroline didn't believe it, it took her a few minutes to realize that the man she loves had just asked for her hand.

Following this request, Caroline began all the preparations so that 12 months later, her wedding would be ready.

Caroline's dress was just gorgeous! A mermaid dress made entirely of matching lace with a beautiful veil hung on her shoulders by a pretty flower.

For Caroline, as for many future brides, the choice of the dress takes a decisive turning point in a woman's life . This stage of the preparations is always delicate, many emotions interfere, it is your moment.

We can say that Caroline was beautiful and refined right down to her ears. We made the Refined Earring Pair for her wedding: two gold pendant chains with a natural freshwater pearl at each end.

With her beautiful wavy brown hair, the earrings were sure to stand out beautifully.

As for Paul, he made his entire suit at Atelier Coqlico: white and midnight blue matched with a pretty colored bow tie and personalized embroidery. The two brides and grooms complemented each other perfectly.

Their white wedding

The couple chose a wonderful place to bring together their loved ones and celebrate their love together: Le Domaine de Pinelais , a magnificent building not far from Pornic, the city of their hearts.

For her theme, Caroline wanted something simple, to match her dress. At first, she went for “chic and rustic”, then gradually the theme transformed into “ minimalist ”.

This allowed her to keep an open axis on her decoration while keeping the simplicity she wanted: white flowers accompanied by greenery, a pure and personalized decoration by the two bride and groom from the menu to the rosé miniatures and bottles of beer for the guests. She created a wedding in her image and in the image of her couple.

His tables were of a gentle elegance:

- Bouquets of white roses and assorted foliage

- Chandelier made from a glass bottle with large white candles

- A personalized menu on their wooden base

- And a twine napkin ring with a small card bearing the image of the bride and groom

For the wedding cake , Caroline remained true to herself: a splendid tiered cake in a gradient of gray to white accompanied by the same decorative foliage as her tables. All in finesse.

Caroline even gives us a piece of advice for your future wedding preparations : “don’t rush or impose the dress code from the start. That leaves room to change it at the last minute.”

Congratulations to the two lovers, the road to unconditional love has only just begun!
