Wedding at Château de Nainville-les-Roches

ESSONNE · ÎLE-DE-FRANCE

The planning: design, atmosphere, vision

First, there is the calm. Then, at the end of a path lined with topiaries, the pink brick façade appears — and you understand that this day will be like no other.

The preparations: softness before the light

Juliette got ready in the château’s salons, surrounded by her bridesmaids in cream robes. Mille et Un Rêves Makeup Artist created a luminous, natural complexion, in perfect harmony with the hushed atmosphere of the venue. Glow Radiance Studio styled the bride’s hair in a romantic and delicate spirit. The clean lines of the Artaner Paris jewellery completed the look without ever weighing it down.

The Maison Zaïed gown — long, embroidered lace, generous train — revealed all its majesty spread across the chequered floor of the entrance hall. An image that needs no staging: the venue does the work.

Arthur wore an off-white double-breasted suit by Palenzo Collezioni — a modern silhouette, a sharp cut, effortless elegance. A bold choice that stood out perfectly against the light wood panelling and the stone of the château.

The ceremony and cocktail hour: the French formal gardens

The couple arrived in a prestige car from Excalibur Event 77, a vintage and glamorous touch that certainly made an impression.

The grounds of Château de Nainville-les-Roches are one of its most photogenic assets. Its paths lined with perfectly cone-shaped topiaries, its deep green lawns, the pink brick façade as a backdrop — every angle is already a composition. It was in this setting that the cocktail hour took place, bathed in the warm afternoon light.

Decor & tablescape

The decor by Pretty Big Event and the stationery by Maison Meor wove a consistent visual thread from one space to the next. The wedding cake by Nidas Art Cake, an architectural piece of rare delicacy, was a work of art in its own right.

The entire day was orchestrated by Garance Prestige, a wedding planner whose precision and fluidity allowed each supplier to fully express their art and the couple to live their day freely.
