Classic Ceremony with Personal Flair
The ceremony took place in Château de Champlâtreux’s park beneath a white floral arch, framed by its grand fountain and sweeping lawns. The moment was classic and refined, with personal touches woven throughout. After exchanging vows, guests gathered at the steps for a champagne tower under the open sky, the sound of corks and applause echoing through the grounds. The mood quickly lifted into joyful celebration as the couple’s entrance set the tone: bridesmaids dancing with playful signs, the groom arriving with basketball flair, and music energizing the crowd. It was a seamless blend of tradition and personality that reflected Sophie and Yancy’s shared spirit.
A Warm and Lively Evening Indoors
As the evening light faded, guests moved into the château’s richly colored red room for dinner, where candlelight reflected off crystal glassware and warm tones created intimacy. The tablescape balanced polish with warmth, featuring neutral linens and glowing accents. A classic pièce montée provided a distinctly French finale, followed by a champagne tap that drew laughter and applause. Throughout the night, Louise of Agence LB guided the celebration’s rhythm, keeping transitions smooth and natural. The story was documented by Alexia Privitera, one of the sought-after wedding photographers in Paris, who captured every moment of movement, joy, and connection as guests danced deep into the night.
