Understated and elegant wedding in the South West of France - by Top Wedding Photographer in South W

On 12th August 2017, I had the chance to photograph this beautiful Franco-Belgium wedding in South West of France. Florence and Guillaume live in East of France, Florence is from Belgium and after a getting legally married in Belgium, they decided to celebrate their union with their family and friends in Midi-Pyrenees, South West France, where Guillaume grew up. It was an elegant, understated and relaxed wedding with close family and friends.

Florence tells us how the planning of the day was as important as they day itself. The couple really enjoyed every minute of it all. On the day, they made the most of all their guests whilst not overdoing it. It was a simple and beautiful wedding, full of happiness. “We are so grateful for all the love we received from our guests and any glitch in the planning that could occur didn’t matter at all.”

The couple's preparations

The couple each prepared with their close family members. They had chosen elegant and understated gowns and accessories. Florence wore an elegant gown from Cymbeline with beautiful earings from Tikli Jewelry and shoes from What For. Guillaume wore a suit from Father and Sons and shoes from Azzaro. Florence’s wedding ring was made in the place where she grew up. During the ceremony, both rings were brought onto a personalized suspension by Vous Boutique.

The styling

The couple wanted light and bright colored flowers, that Florence complemented them with decorations she sourced herself.
