There are so many reasons why I love destination weddings at French châteaux.

Of course, there's the obvious beauty. The historic architecture, elegant gardens, and timeless atmosphere make every wedding feel incredibly special.

But what I love even more is the flexibility they offer.

If the sun is shining, you can exchange your vows with the château as your backdrop, surrounded by your family and friends in the gardens.

And if the weather decides otherwise? You simply move inside, where beautiful historic rooms provide an equally elegant setting for your ceremony.

No stress. No last-minute compromises. Just the confidence that, whatever the weather, your wedding will be beautiful.

That's exactly what I love about celebrating weddings in French châteaux. They allow couples to relax and focus on what really matters: being present with each other and the people they love.

It was such a joy to officiate Kim & Leo's wedding ceremony in English and to witness them exchange their personal vows in such a beautiful setting.

Would you choose an outdoor château ceremony or the elegance of a historic salon?

As a celebrant in Paris there is one moment in almost every ceremony that I look forward to.

It usually happens shortly after I begin speaking: The nerves settle. The excitement of the wedding day fades into the background. And my fully arrives in the present moment, looking only at each other - as if the rest of the world simply fades away.

In this little love bubble there is room for everything that really matters: their story, their promises, their emotions, and the commitment they are about to make.

Christine & Jarrod’s Paris elopement was one of those ceremonies I’ll never forget. They didn’t only come to Paris to get married. They came to blend two families into one and begin this new chapter together.

Being trusted to hold space for moments like these is one of the reasons I still love being an English-speaking wedding celebrant in Paris after all these years.

Have you ever experienced a moment where the rest of the world seemed to disappear?

Some wedding days in Paris feel elegant from beginning to end.

For these two beautiful brides eloping in Paris, the day started in one of Paris’ historic hotels, where the stunning rooms and timeless interiors created the perfect backdrop for getting ready and those quiet moments before getting married in Paris.

From there, we headed into the city for portraits at the Louvre before continuing to one of my favorite hidden gems in Paris: Parc de Bagatelle.
Surrounded by beautiful gardens and the chateau, as their Paris celebrant I had the joy of officiating their elopement ceremony as they exchanged personal vows and officially began this new chapter together as wife and wife.

What I loved most about their q***r elopement was how true it felt to them. Nothing was chosen because it was expected. Every location, every detail, every moment reflected who they are. And a celebration completely focused on each other.

Would you choose the iconic Louvre, the peaceful gardens of Parc de Bagatelle... or both?

After 25 years of marriage and 32 years of knowing each other, Anja & Thomas decided to press pause for a moment.

They travelled to Paris to celebrate everything they had built together and to renew theur wedding vows they made all those years ago. On the banks of the Seine river, with a view on the Eiffel Tower, as their celebrant I had the joy of officiating their vow renewal ceremony and helping them create a wedding anniversary celebration dedicated entirely to the two of them.

No distractions. Just a quiet moment to look back, celebrate the journey so far, and look forward to everything still to come.

To match the timeless atmosphere of Paris, Anja chose a beautiful ivory trouser suit paired with an elegant bouquet of lilies. And driving through Paris in a vintage car added the perfect finishing touch to Paris vow renewal that felt effortlessly classic.

One of the things I love most about vow renewals is that they remind us that love isn't only worth celebrating at the beginning. Sometimes it's even more meaningful after years of choosing each other, day after day.

If you could renew your vows anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Over the years, I have had the pleasure of officiating many ceremonies at the Shangri-La Paris. So when one of the people I have worked alongside countless times at this beautiful wedding venue and who has witnessed many of those ceremonies from behind the scenes, reached out to ask if I would officiate his daughter's wedding ceremony, I was deeply touched.

There is something incredibly meaningful about being entrusted with such an important moment by someone who has seen your work as a wedding celebrant in Paris over the years and knows exactly what you do.

It was a joy to get to know Margaux & Choumeng - a truly inspiring couple - and to create a ceremony that truly reflected them, their story, and the people they love.

On the wedding day, emotions ran high: Family members shared words that were funny, heartfelt, and moving. There was laughter, there were tears, and there was that special silence that sometimes settles over a ceremony when everyone is fully present in the moment - especially when Margaux & Choumeng exchanged their personal vows.

This was a wedding I will remember for a very long time.
Thank you, Margaux & Choumeng, and thank you to your wonderful family for allowing me to be part of it.

When couples think of getting married in Paris, they often imagine the classic Eiffel Tower view. But one of my favorite Paris elopement locations offers a completely different perspective: the Alexander III Bridge.

As a marriage celebrant and officiant in Paris, I love recommending this location because it combines so many of the things couples come to Paris for. You still have a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower, but you also have the elegance of the bridge itself: the ornate architecture, the grand statues, the historic lanterns, the golden details, and the Seine flowing beneath you. It feels refined, romantic, and unmistakably Parisian.

Whether for an intimate elopement ceremony, a renewal of wedding vows, or wedding photo portraits, Alexander III Bridge adds a sense of grandeur without taking away from the couple at the center of it all.

Would you choose the Alexander III Bridge for your wedding day, or do you prefer a more traditional Eiffel Tower view?

Why I still love being a wedding celebrant after 10 years?

It’s because I get to be part of a journey and moments of genuine connection:

I love those very first conversations, when a couple tells me about their vision and slowly discovers that a ceremony can be so much more than standing in front of each other and listening to a script. That there are readings, rituals, traditions, personal promises, contributions from loved ones, and so many ways to create a moment that truly feels like them.

I love the months that follow. The exchanges, the ideas, the little details that gradually come together until one day everything is ready and all that’s left is anticipation for the wedding day.

I love the moment the ceremony begins and I can feel my couple arrive in the moment. The nerves settle. The outside world fades away. And for a little while, nothing else matters except the two of them.

And I love the exchange of vows. The moment when all the planning becomes real. When emotions run high, promises are shared, and yes... sometimes I find myself tearing up too.

After more than 10 years, those moments still haven’t become ordinary. And I hope they never do.

What is the moment you look forward to most on your wedding day?
