Alex & Max

Our lovebirds flew in from San Francisco to get married on the Côte d’Azur, a place dear to their hearts and home to the grandparents of Max, our groom. For this summer wedding in Monaco & on the French Riviera, Alex & Max wanted to gather their guests for a cocktail party and dinner outdoors, overlooking the Mediterranean.

The Charlotte Poésie wedding planner agency remotely organized this destination wedding in just a few months, from contact with the church to the DJ for the evening.

Wedding day timeline & style

Preparations took place in Cap D’Ail, in a private villa and that of the grandparents, with a first look for the bride and groom with their bridesmaids and groomsmen, and an intimate exchange of vows. After the religious ceremony in Monaco, the couple enjoyed a photo session in the heart of the city and its parks.

Cocktails were served on the pool terrace, with a mixologist creating 2 signature cocktails. Dinner took place in the garden overlooking the Mediterranean, under a nomad tent. The bride and groom wanted a relaxed but elegant style, colorful with a palette of bright colors.

We imagined the dinner on wooden tables, with colorful table decorations, photophores and candleholders, and colorful, organic floral arrangements. After several speeches and a dinner of culinary workshops, the couple cut their wedding cake and enjoyed French choux named Croquembouches.

They opened their ball after a dance between Alexandra and her father on the dance floor. The party ended with an unexpected night swim in their villa’s pool. The atmosphere was fantastic, and the lovers had a great time until the early hours of the morning with all their friends.
