Romantic Wedding in Paris Crossing the River Seine
Angéline and Jonathan have been living in Paris for many years as they both grew up and met there so the River Seine was the perfect choice for their wedding. The couple loves to travel and are very fond of Italy and Greece, since Angéline is half Greek. Angéline and Jonathan were already planning their destination wedding party to be held in Greece within the next season, to celebrate with all of their friends.

From MAZI Events
Paris has romantically haunted the dreams of so many couples, so when we were asked to organize a wedding ceremony there, we faced one great challenge! We had to try hard to create a wedding day uniquely and unpretentiously romantic in a city full of love clichés. And so we did! We had to highlight the graceful dignity that both Angéline and Jonathan evoked and at the same time epitomize the Parisian myth. So, we recruited all our inventiveness and the result was profoundly satisfying.
We were so happy that the couple trusted us and even chose a photographer and videographer from Greece. This way we bonded more and the result was greater than we could expect. It was a very emotional photo shooting of a wedding that will forever stay in our hearts. We are happy to have contributed to the special moment of two people that we will always consider as our friends.
The Wedding
Our beautiful bride, Angéline wore a two piece wedding dress and angelically swept us off our feet. Refinement and grace is what characterized her. The wedding took place at the elegant Town Hall of the 5th arrondissement and it was followed by cocktail party on a péniche on the Seine. This was the best choice of a venue, as it gave us the opportunity to use the city as a canvas. However, we did not just rely on the cityscape.
We took care of everything as we always do. If you browse through the pictures you will see the carefully selected colors, the flower arrangements by Floraison Paris and the black and white stationery with hand-drawn sketches and unique monogram by Mazi Chirography.
We always insist on personalized stationery and the sophisticated details successfully set throughout the venue. Be sure to look for the globe guestbook and of course, the traditionally French tour de macaron cake from Laduree Paris!
The péniche took us calmly along the Hausmannian rooftops, the Notre Dame and the other landmarks When the party was over we realized we had contributed to a young couple’s moment of sincere and utter happiness. They will always have each other and we will always have Paris in our memories and the Seine enchantingly flowing around us.
We had an all-night cocktail party, with canapés and drinks. There were no set tables. The whole concept was of a mini cruise. The guests moved around and mingled, keeping the mood up and the atmosphere more alive.
