Nestled in the sun-drenched hills of Provence, Maeve and Philip’s romantic wedding at Chateau de Robernier felt like something out of a modern-day fairytale. With its grand turrets, golden-hued stone, and sweeping French countryside views, this centuries-old château set the tone for a day full of elegance, heart, and just the right amount of whimsy. And even when unexpected rain clouds rolled in, nothing could dampen the joy or magic of the day—the love, the laughter, and the celebration carried on beautifully, proving that sometimes, the most memorable moments come with a little drizzle.
Rain, Roses & Romance in Provence
Maeve and Philip’s love story began in Boston, thanks to a dating app and one magical coincidence—they lived only a block apart. A few years (and one dreamy Bermuda boat proposal) later, they found themselves saying “I do” in the South of France, inspired by a past trip that left them completely enchanted by Provence.
Their vision was soft and sophisticated: a delicate palette of creamy whites and blush pinks, accented with rich gold tones that echoed the opulence of the château’s interiors. Charlotte from Flower and Twig worked her floral magic, pairing feathery petals with structured blooms for arrangements that felt romantic yet intentional. The dessert? A five-tier wedding cake that mirrored the ornate gold mirror in the château’s entrance hall—talk about full-circle beauty.
Though the skies opened just before the ceremony, nothing could dim the day’s magic. Guests gathered indoors, surrounded by history and candlelight, as Maeve glided down the aisle in a Monique Lhuillier gown named Maeve (yes, really—it was meant to be). From the upper galleries, guests showered the couple with petals, adding a touch of theater to an already cinematic moment.
Their first dance to Otis Redding’s “That’s How Strong My Love Is” unfolded under twinkling lights, laughter echoing off the château walls. It was intimate, joyful, and completely unforgettable.
A Vendor Dream Team
This romantic wedding at Chateau de Robernier came together under the thoughtful eye of Et Voila Wedding, who masterfully brought Maeve and Philip’s vision to life. From logistics to design, every element flowed with ease and style. Charlotte’s florals added an organic softness, while the cake design—a nod to the château itself—was a true showstopper. Together, this team didn’t just plan a wedding; they created a love-soaked experience the couple (and their guests) will never forget.
