Getting Ready

Alexandra's morning unfolded in the soft ivory interiors of the chateau, fresh florals drifting up from the gardens below. Joana Ronquillo built a polished, luminous look while the Galia Lahav Fabiana gown, with its densely embroidered floral bodice and fluid train, hung from a white and gold four-poster bed. When Alexandra stepped into it and sat at the foot of the bed with champagne in hand, the room went quiet.

Officiated by Myceremonie Officiant, the ceremony took place in the gardens with the Provencal countryside spreading wide behind the couple. Stephan Lohe's arching arrangements of garden roses, ranunculus, and eucalyptus in dusty rose, ivory, and deep sage drew the eye toward a full circular floral arch on the gravel terrace. When Max first saw Alexandra walking toward him, his expression said everything words could not.

Shot as the last light drained from the sky, these portraits have the quality that only golden hour in Provence delivers: warm amber tones, long shadows across the gravel driveway, and two people completely at ease. The bridal party in soft sage and warm taupe walked together along the gravel paths in a candid moment earlier that afternoon, while Max and his groomsmen looked sharp in Canali suits with Lanvin bow-ties.

Guests wrapped their hands around coupes of champagne as the light shifted toward gold on the terraces. As evening arrived, the courtyard filled with candlelight and fairy lights threaded through greenery. Fleur de Sel served refined French cuisine, and Alexandra and Max cut a traditional croquembouche together as the night deepened. Troubadours Riviera played live sets before Dr Glen of Wildfire DJs kept the dance floor full past midnight.

Stephan Lohe's florals ran from pale blush and ivory through dusty rose, sage green, and deep burgundy, using ranunculus, garden roses, anemones, eucalyptus, and dried lavender. The Galia Lahav Fabiana gown and Loeffler Randall heels in oyster satin sat alongside Creme de Papier stationery on black and white marble tiles. Jolibazaar crockery gave the tables a collected, personal feel.
