Pink Orchids and Pleached Trees: An Abbaye de Talloires Wedding on Lake Annecy

The garden at the Abbaye de Talloires, a former monastery on the shore of Lake Annecy, set the scene for Fernanda and Jon's colourful, modern wedding in late August. Jon grew up in France, with most of his family in Annecy; Fernanda came from New York. They brought 100 guests to the lake for the day. The brief was simple: plenty of colour, good food, and a long night by the water. Josie Brooks photographed the weekend in a documentary style, and Rhapsody Planner pulled it together.
