Understated French luxury in crystal and lace at Chateau Bouffemont

While we often associate Paris with its charming narrow streets, the iconic Eiffel Tower, and the bustling Champs-Élysées, there are a few hidden gems located at 45-minute drive away from the City of Light. Chateau Bouffemont is breathtaking and enchanting chateau that seems straight out of a storybook. Explore this contemporary fairy tale set in the picturesque French countryside at Chateau Bouffemont through the lens of Joanne Rabenarisoa Photography, a France-based wedding photographer.

Luxury inspiration from French architecture

For this inspiration, Chateau Bouffemont was the perfect location for Taylor from Travelling Weddings with Taylor to craft a truly mesmerizing set-up. The chateau’s architecture exudes an immediate sense of romance, with a special mention to its exquisite double stone staircases, which were beautifully adorned with delicate white floral arrangements by Gypsy Floral, adding an extra layer of enchantment to this fairytale setting.

Hair and makeup that epitomizes French chic

Stephanie, the radiant bride for the day, possesses a natural beauty that Sara from Glam by Sara Finney skillfully enhanced with a subtle and graceful makeup application. Her hair required minimal attention but was elegantly styled into a low bun to harmonize with the design of their dresses, both created by Chana Marelus, a renowned Israeli couture bridal designer.

Lace and crystals: A timeless, exquisite choice

Stephanie’s footwear was nothing short of exquisite as she graced the occasion with a pair of lace and crystal heels by Bella Belle. Meanwhile, Paul, the groom, epitomized timeless elegance in a classic suit from Don Morphy, a Texas-based suit brand.

Luxury design is delicate and understated

Every detail in this editorial wedding inspiration was thoughtfully curated by Travelling Weddings with Taylor. This included a stunning fine art cotton paper invitation suite, meticulously crafted by Elephant Limbo. To adorn the wedding table, Taylor opted for Vaisselle Vintage, known for its exquisite selection of French antique tableware, which complemented the enchanting backdrop offer by the Chateau Bouffemont and poetically captured by Joanne Rabenarisoa Photography.
