A three-day celebration on the Côte d’Azur designed for joy, surprise, and unforgettable moments. The weekend began on the Croisette in Cannes with a vibrant beach club evening inspired by the couple’s Jamaican heritage, where colorful tones and glowing candles set the scene by the sea.
The wedding day design was a complete surprise for the couple, a heartfelt gift from the bride’s mother. Together we designed a celebration at Château de La Napoule, an ancient castle at the edge of the water, where guests stepped into a candlelit fairytale. The medieval courtyard was transformed into a starry-sky dinner, illuminated by more than 600 real candles. Deep greens, delicate florals, and layered textures created an atmosphere that felt both intimate and vibrant, reflecting the couple’s joyful spirit. The afterparty continued overlooking the bay of Cannes, where music, laughter, and dancing carried all night long.
