Location: Nogent-le-Roi • Loire Region • Northern France

A Medieval Backdrop Filled with Story and Warmth
Located in the Loire region near Nogent-le-Roi, Manoir de Vacheresses offered the ideal setting for a celebration steeped in heritage. The 13th-century estate, restored by owners Frédérique and Philippe, carried an aura of quiet grandeur: weathered stone, heavy wooden doors, and winding staircases that spoke of centuries past. Beyond the walls, apple trees laden with fruit framed the aqueduct, adding a natural touch of whimsy that felt as if the landscape itself had styled the scene. The North of France wedding venue held light that turned golden by afternoon, wrapping the entire estate in a nostalgic glow.
Modern Bridal Elegance and Autumnal Floral Artistry
The creative vision came to life under the direction of Estelle from Madame Wedding Design, one of the North of France’s most inventive wedding planners. The bridal look, designed by Top Bridal Paris, combined structure and grace—a strapless corset gown with a dramatic cascading bow that embodied both confidence and romance. Makeup artist Chloe Robin kept the look natural and luminous, allowing model Chihiro’s presence to shine. Floral artistry by Capucine Atelier and Dogwood & Fir turned the venue into a living painting: Copper Vienna chrysanthemums, warm garden roses, dahlias, clematis, and vanda orchids in rich, tonal hues. Tables by Madame Wedding Design recalled Dutch still lifes, and a cake by Monannie Cakes, detailed with a sugar bow and lifelike florals, mirrored the gown’s sculptural beauty. Every element united past and present in a celebration of artistry, season, and place.
