By Elena Moretti | Published 5 January 2025

Seventy guests gathered at Hotel Crillon le Brave, a five-star wedding venue perched above the Provencal countryside, for a celebration shaped by Stephanie of WEP in Provence, a trusted destination wedding planner based in Provence. Floresie's floral palette of salmon roses and blue delphiniums carried through ceremony, dinner, and terrace cocktails beneath Mont Ventoux, making this an intimate destination wedding near Aix-en-Provence in the south of France.

Guests gathered on the terrace overlooking the valley as Carte Blanche Jazz Band played through the late afternoon. Be Lounge furniture dotted the courtyard, and string lights began to glow as daylight faded. The evening transitioned into dinner under the open sky, where Mediterranean dishes paired with local wines and the sound of cicadas settled over the tables.

Floresie paired white and salmon roses with soft blue delphiniums in arrangements that echoed the Provencal landscape. White linen tablecloths carried polished place settings, and a two-tier cake by Made in Cake featured hand-painted botanical details on a beige linen-covered table. A bridal gown hung against a light neutral wall, its fabric catching the soft morning light that filtered through the stone windows.

Creme de Papier's stationery suite spread across pale stone, featuring calligraphy in muted tones alongside wax seals and dried floral sprigs. Rings, ribbon, and a perfume bottle completed the arrangement. Life Stories Wedding framed each detail against the venue's neutral textures, letting the paper stock and letterpress impressions carry the visual weight.

Hotel Crillon le Brave's cluster of medieval stone buildings formed a private hamlet above the Provencal plains, with Mont Ventoux rising beyond the rooftops. Cobbled passageways connected ivy-covered facades to hidden terraces, and each courtyard revealed a different view of the surrounding lavender fields and vineyards. The ceremony took place on a terrace framed by warm stone walls, with French provincial chairs facing the open hillside.
