On the picturesque hillside of Eze, overlooking the shimmering Mediterranean, we crafted a deeply emotional and intimate elopement experience. Surrounded by their closest family — loving parents and a devoted brother — the couple exchanged heartfelt vows that transformed their day into a beautiful blend of romance and family connection. Every glance, every embrace carried the warmth of shared love, made even more meaningful by the breathtaking setting of this medieval village on the French Riviera.
A Change of Plans that Led to Unexpected Magic
The ceremony was initially planned at the top of the Eze Exotic Garden, a place famed for its panoramic sea views and poetic charm. But in the days leading up, access for ceremonies was unexpectedly suspended due to previous visitors not respecting city rules. In true Riviera spirit, we swiftly found an alternative — a hidden terrace nestled within the village, where the cobblestone paths and pastel facades whispered romance.
The new location turned out to be a gift. It allowed for a more private moment, where the couple shared a moving first look and intimate portraits amid the garden’s lush scenery. Their family gathered close, creating an atmosphere of tenderness and authenticity — every tear, every smile, illuminated by the warm, golden light of the sunset over Eze. What could have been a challenge became a story they’ll remember forever: one of love, resilience, and beauty.
A Romantic Dinner at Château de la Chèvre d’Or
After the ceremony, the couple and their loved ones continued their celebration at the iconic Château de la Chèvre d’Or. Perched above the sea, this Michelin-starred haven offered the perfect setting for their elopement dinner — refined cuisine, breathtaking views, and the timeless charm of the Riviera. It was the ideal way to close a day filled with joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
