For Louise and Lucas, getting married was always going to be about bringing their favorite people together. And rather than celebrating everything in a single day, they chose two places close to their hearts: Paris, where they live and have built their life together, and Provence, where the second chapter of their wedding would unfold.

On April 25, 2026, their celebrations began in Paris.

At 3 PM, they gathered with their family and friends for their civil ceremony at the 20th arrondissement City Hall, on Place Gambetta. By 4 PM, everyone was raising a glass at a nearby bar, enjoying the first few hours of married life.

As evening approached, we headed to the Buttes-Chaumont park for their couple portraits before joining their 120 guests at Ora Farmhouse, nestled in the greenery of the park.

A relaxed evening, a dinner buffet, plenty of conversations and laughter, and the simple pleasure of having everyone together.

There was something particularly lovely about celebrating their marriage in the city they call home, surrounded by the people who have been part of their story.
