Storytelling :

Once upon a time at the Château Saint Joseph, a pure haven of piece in the South West of France, surrounded by nature and quietness…

A beautiful « Coccinelle » appears, rolling slowly. He is in the moving car. The car stops in front of the Castle, the door opens and he exits of the car with a worried face. Is she here ? Standing next to the car, he faces the impressive castle.

She’s inside, walking towards the window, worried. She heard the noise of the car. Is he here ? She opens the curtains a little. Her face lights up with a broad smile. He is here, finally !

She runs to join him, running in the stairs, running through the checkered room. She arrives outside, the light dazzles the audience. Outside, she throws herself in his arms…. 

Artistic direction :

The artistic direction of this editorial is conducted by the designers La Blonde et le Barbu and the film photographer Thomas Audiffren.

The decoration was purely inspired by the British elegance with soft tones of pink all arround the flowers. The castle offers a beautiful chapel with a stunning wood door. It was obvious that we had to create the arch in this specific location. La Blonde et le Barbu created an amazing setting and also a delicate table with original tableware by Joli Bazaar, chairs by Be Lounge , a tablecloth by Madame de la Maison. The table is sublimated by the wonderful chandeliers by Phos Events.

Karine Brossard did a beautiful work with the make up and the hair design of our lovely bride of the day, Cassandre. The wears a minimalist dress designed and created by the talented Marion Fera. This creation receives a unique lace full of details and, precisely, 57 buttons in the back. The bracelet and the earings from Sohelo Bijoux Mariage add a delicate touch to the bride’s look.

Baptiste, the incarnation of the British elegance and lover of Cassandre in the real life, wears an incredible and nobel suit provided by Igilles, based in Aix-en-Provence. No prince out of a fairytale would exist without is faithful « horse ». In our story, the horse takes the appearance of a green « Coccinelle » from Cocciwel.

The wedding cake is designed and created by LB Cake Design ans beautifuly decorated by floral creations of La Blonde et le Barbu.

The Watercolourist Eli Grilli (played by Marion Fera on the photos) follows our love birds during the ceremony. The very talented violonist Pauline Henric accompanies Cassandre and Baptiste during their dance at the sunset.

Jino Agnelli, filmmaker, tells us the romantic story of the two love birds in this fantastic castle in the South West of France.
