Wedding at Chateau Saint-Jeannet – French Riviera (S&A’s wedding)

The Ceremony: A Masterpiece of Modern Elegance

The wedding ceremony at Château Saint-Jeannet was nothing short of a breathtaking masterpiece, transforming the historic venue into an ethereal, dreamlike setting. Rows of sleek black chairs lined a glossy black aisle, reflecting the expansive blue skies and creating a striking contrast against the château’s stone architecture. White roses and hydrangeas cascaded down the aisle, adding a touch of softness and romance to the monochromatic theme.

At the ceremony’s focal point, the château’s impressive stone tower was adorned with an abundance of white florals, dramatically spilling over the rustic walls in a grand floral installation that felt both opulent and natural. The effect was mesmerising, creating a seamless blend of architecture and nature. This spectacular arrangement with an immense vertical floral wall enveloped the altar, setting a stunning backdrop that perfectly framed the couple during their vows.

The monochromatic palette of white florals against the stone walls and reflective surfaces gave the ceremony a refined elegance. This stunning design, a signature of Imène’s attention to detail, created a seamless blend of modern luxury and the château’s timeless elegance. The ceremony’s aesthetic captured the couple’s love of sophistication and exclusivity, while the natural surroundings of the French Riviera added a layer of scenic beauty to the event.

A Glasshouse Reception: Dining Under the Stars

For the evening reception, the couple envisioned a dinner and dance beneath the stars, brought to life by Imène and her team in the form of an elegant black iron glasshouse. Constructed onsite at Château Saint-Jeannet, the glasshouse allowed guests to dine under the night sky while crystal chandeliers added an air of grandeur to the setting. The minimal décor highlighted the structure’s architectural beauty, with the chandeliers providing a striking focal point.

Inside the glasshouse, the monochrome theme continued, with a refined balance of boldness and elegance, combining different textures, glossy black chairs, mirrored tables, and sleek table settings complemented lush white floral arrangements. The candlelit tables and crystal glassware reflected the soft glow of the chandeliers above, creating an atmosphere that was both intimate and luxurious.

Every detail of the reception, from the personalised calligraphy on seating cards to the custom lighting design, reflected The Wedding Planners of Monaco’s signature style of indulgent yet sophisticated luxury. Imène and her team ensured that guests were immersed in a world of elegance, making the evening an unforgettable experience.

A Night of Celebration and Glamour

As the night progressed, the glasshouse allowed for the guests to fully experience the French Riviera sunset, with day slowly and seductively turning to night, the space was transformed into a glamorous party space. Under the glow of amber and blue lights, the crystal chandeliers twinkled as the live band took the stage. Guests danced late into the night, surrounded by the captivating energy and luxury that defined the entire event. The carefully curated lighting and entertainment added a dynamic element to the evening, ensuring that the reception was as lively as it was refined.
