French Wedding Style: A Memorable Day at the Abbaye des Vaux-de-Cernay

It has always been my dream to attend a wedding in France. So, I was absolutely thrilled when my dear friend Michael reached out to confirm my mailing address. His daughter Elise was getting married, and I was being invited to the wedding.

Instantly, I knew this wasn’t going to be just any wedding. I have known Elise since the day she was born and watched her grow up to become an incredibly talented, smart, caring, and cultivated young woman. The exceptional experience of celebrating her big day would make this wedding very special – no matter the location.

That said, I knew from the moment Michael called me that this wedding was going to be a grand affair and spectacular in every way – and it was! Everything from the stunningly beautiful bride and her loving family to the historic venue, delicious food, and countless bottles of Champagne contributed to a perfect day.

One says, “a picture is worth a thousand words…” Enjoy!
