SARAH/MATTEO
BORDEAUX
FRANCE
Planning a destination wedding is all about blending the charm of a location with the couple’s unique love story. Sarah and Matteo chose Bordeaux as the backdrop for their special day, a city known for its sophisticated allure and vineyard landscapes that lend themselves perfectly to romantic storytelling.
As a wedding photographer, capturing the essence of Sarah and Matteo’s love in Bordeaux was a remarkable experience. The day began with the couple getting ready in a quaint French villa, surrounded by the peaceful countryside and the faint scent of blooming lavender. The intimacy of those early moments was enhanced by the soft morning light filtering through the windows, setting a serene tone for what was to come.
The ceremony took place in a historical château, where every corner seemed to hold a piece of history, adding depth and texture to the photographs. The couple exchanged their vows under the arches of an ancient courtyard, with close family and friends witnessing the moment. The setting sun painted the scene with hues of gold and amber, making each shot a timeless reminder of their commitment.
For the couple portraits, we ventured into the vineyards, where Sarah and Matteo’s joy was palpable against the backdrop of rows upon rows of lush grapevines. Their laughter and quiet glances spoke of a love that was not only beautiful but genuine and enduring. As the evening descended, the couple joined their guests for a reception dinner under the stars, with the warm glow of fairy lights adding a magical touch to the celebration.
