Renaissance-inspired wedding inspo at the most romantic château

chic French wedding style

Immaculate florals accentuated the historic charm of the Chateau de Santeny for this wedding filled with thoughtful touches, including a hand-crafted macaron tower, to honor French culture. AMV Retreats and AMV Weddings helped plan an event where rich purples mingled with soft blues and pinks, creating the perfect color palette for the event that Les Herbes Folles could play off of through the florals. Captured by Rachel Gabrielse Photography, this elegantly chic wedding inspo will have you dreaming of a French wedding before you know it.
