A classically romantic, French winery wedding with chic modern details? Please, sign us up! Today’s styled shoot shows you can revel in all the old romance of the French countryside, while still making the decor totally new and totally you.

The chic, monochrome stationary look like exclusive Paris Fashion Week invites, working seamlessly in with the light, understated, pink floral decor.

And you probably know what we’re going to shout out to you – lace long sleeves! Oh how we adore lace long sleeve gowns, perfect for a crisp Fall day in the French countryside. The low back and wider lace provide a sexy, modern feel to a more covered gown; we are smitten.

From Majenia Design

With a backdrop of a French vineyard, rustic buildings, garden roses and mountains, Château de la Mar is the perfect place with a view to set up tables for an outdoor wedding. Plus, this property also makes their own wine.

I wanted to infuse this mood into the design, with a subtle modern touch. Obviously, wine was served in crystal glasses then I introduced golden touches for a chic atmosphere, fresh flowers gathered from the garden, and pink color reminders from the flowers in the decoration – from candle holders, and French Coco Chanel perfume to grapefruits and envelopes for the invitation.

As for the invitations, I used a modern font for an elegant style and carried that over to the menu with big letters and also to the transparent welcome signage.

And what’s the best to end the day with a fresh cocktail with champagne? Served on a gorgeous marble table.
