A Jewish couple from NYC chose the breathtaking Château de Varennes in Burgundy for their dream wedding, wanting something truly wow and and authentically French. From a stunning white floral arch at the ceremony to a reception dripping in chandeliers, every detail was designed to create an unforgettable, fairytale-like atmosphere.
An Enchanted Forest-Inspired Wedding in Burgundy
The ceremony took place on the château’s sunlit lawn against the backdrop of centuries-old stone. The couple exchanged vows beneath a stunning arch adorned with white hydrangeas, classic roses, and striking delphiniums, all enhanced by touches of greenery. Guests gathered in cream-cushioned French provincial chairs arranged in elegant rows, while the gentle Burgundy breeze carried the sweet scent of nearby lavender fields through the air.
Dining Under a Canopy of Chandeliers
Despite unexpected rain showers earlier in the day, the reception transformed the château gardens into a truly magical setting. The weather cleared just in time, and the raindrops left behind only added a fresh, glistening quality to the enchanted atmosphere. Crystal chandeliers suspended from greenery-wrapped poles created the feeling of dining beneath an enchanted forest ceiling. As evening approached, these lights cast a warm, golden glow over the celebration.
A long banquet table became the heart of this magical scene, dressed in ivory linens and adorned with flowing white flowers and delicate salmon roses. Every detail—from the sparkling glassware to the gold accents—added beauty and elegance. The clouds parted to reveal a stunning sunset, proving that even the weather ultimately cooperated to create the perfect celebration.
Bringing The Vision to Life
This wonderful day came to life through the talents of Dorulete Events, who orchestrated everything with perfect attention to detail. The stunning flowers were the work of Lilas Wood, while photographer Matt Kobi captured all the special moments.
This wedding at Château de Varennes combined Jewish traditions with French beauty where guests experienced a truly magical day.
