With so many options, it can be confusing to decide on where to elope, especially if you've never been to Paris, Provence or the French Riviera. I delight in helping all of my couples plan their perfect day.

You're never alone, I'm more than a photographer, your elopement experience in France means a lot to me, and I'll do everything I can to ensure your wedding day is one you'll always treasure!

Most couples love the idea of an outdoor ceremony, whether with a view of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, for example, in an olive grove ot lavender field in Provence, or along the sea on the French Riviera. Those locations are ideal for just the two of you, and maybe a few guests. If you're thinking of having more guests, then a privatized location like a hotel, resort, villa, or event center would probably be better suited to your event. Elopements in Paris usually take place in the morning, before too many people wake up, as Paris gets super busy! Paris elopements are perfect if you're into romantic city vibes, great restaurants and beautiful monuments and gardens. In Provence, the possibilities are endless. Most revolve around the beauty of nature, such as seaside, in a lavender field, or in an olive grove, or even in a forest or on a mountain. But don't count out a gorgeous view from a Provençal hilltop village. Provence is ideal if you'd like a more laid-back, relaxed nature vibe and an "authentic" French experience. If you love the sun and sea, the French Riviera is absolutely ideal! 

Elopements are meant to be intimate and personal, so typically are for just the bride & groom. Small groups of less than 10 people could possibly be accommodated, but would often require a private venue, at least for the ceremony. For groups larger than 10, a private location is required and that would be considered a small destination wedding, extra fees would apply.

Yes! All clients who have reserved me for their elopement will receive guidance on vendors who will make your day so special. This could include a makeup & hair artist, flowers, officiant/celebrant and more. But I'm not just giving you names, I'm there to help you coordinate, so that every aspect of your wedding day is perfect! My goal is to make this so easy and enjoyable for you, and take away the stress you may feel, because who wants to feel stressed on their wedding day?

Yes! Unlike traditional weddings, which take a long time to plan, elopements can be planned a bit more quickly. That said, in the busy summer months of June to August (particularly August), its best to plan ahead if you can, as accommodations fill very quickly in the busy months.

While elopements are generally more budget friendly than a larger wedding back home, make sure you have a budget to truly enjoy your day in that way that you like. Most couples budget between 3000€ - 9,000€ for their elopement in France, but each couple is unique in their desires for their wedding in France.
