Henry and Olivia brought friends and family south to Le Grand Banc, a private Provencal hamlet for destination weddings in the Luberon after years in London, drawn by warm limestone walls, terraced gardens, and the vast sweep of the valley. Josh and Steph at Josh Tully Management guided the weekend with confident, unhurried direction across the estate’s stone buildings and olive-lined paths.

Ceremony






Beneath the canopy of an ancient tree, filtered light moved across faces as Henry and Olivia exchanged vows. The ceremony held a backdrop of far valley views and near silence, the kind that arrives when a crowd holds its breath together. Romain Ivanov found the unposed, unheld expression on Henry’s face as Olivia appeared, a frame that needed no direction.
Bridal Portraits






Olivia’s Galia Lahav gown, off-white with a faint blush undertone, shifted tone with every step along the stone garden paths. Julien Martha styled her hair in a low, natural arrangement while Sasha Brown kept the palette close to her own colouring. On a low terrace wall, rosemary brushed her hem, and the resinous warmth of the herb settled the moment into something quiet and private.
Couple Portraits






Romain Ivanov guided the couple through Le Grand Banc’s quieter corners as the sun crossed toward the western ridgeline, turning the limestone a deeper amber. A doorway framed with climbing ivy, a low wall overlooking the Luberon valley, and the ease of two people who had already said the important thing and were simply enjoying what came next.
Bridal Party



Olivia’s bridesmaids wore white, a choice that doubled down on restraint rather than offering contrast. Against the honey-gold stone and grey-green olive trees, the effect was quietly striking. The shared palette with the bride created a visual calm in portraits, every figure part of the same composed frame.
Cocktail Hour






Guests spread across Le Grand Banc’s terraces with glasses of crisp regional white wine as the ceremony softened into late afternoon. Citron Pavot’s approach matched the day: regional, generous, and unfussy. Music from DJ Anthony drifted low and ambient at this stage, setting a tone before the evening properly opened.
Reception






Exposed wood tables, candlelight, and Citron Pavot’s regional kitchen kept the evening warm and grounded beneath the tent’s open edge. Speeches brought tears and laughter in the same breath. When DJ Anthony of Fix the Music shifted the set upward, the dance floor filled without coaxing, and the Luberon valley had already gone dark blue beyond the tent.
Design and Details





Agnes Laye Fleurs brought an Ikebana sensibility to the florals: sculptural, asymmetrical arrangements of ivory ranunculus, dried pampas stems, and trailing eucalyptus balanced against raw wood and stone. Tables from Option Aix were dressed with airy ivory chiffon runners. The tent by Oravis Location allowed the party to breathe open air, and the palette leaned into off-white, blush, and the muted sage-green of the surrounding landscape.
