Renaissance-inspired wedding inspo at the most romantic château

Share

chic French wedding style

Immaculate florals accentuated the historic charm of the Chateau de Santeny for this wedding filled with thoughtful touches, including a hand-crafted macaron tower, to honor French culture. AMV Retreats and AMV Weddings helped plan an event where rich purples mingled with soft blues and pinks, creating the perfect color palette for the event that Les Herbes Folles could play off of through the florals. Captured by Rachel Gabrielse Photography, this elegantly chic wedding inspo will have you dreaming of a French wedding before you know it.

Bride Christina started in a sleek Reem Acra gown with high neck, open back, and long sleeves and neat ballerina bun hairstyle, while groom Remy remained in a classic black tux and clean high ball hairstyle for the full event.

Framed with a romantic floral arch

A romantic floral arch was the perfect backdrop for the ceremony set-up and framed the couple beautifully. Portraits were taken in front of the arch and on two grand staircases, one located inside and one outside of the Chateau.
