A glamorous wedding in Saint Tropez – Bertille + Thomas
CONTENTS
Creators of the clothing brand Mouty Paris and already parents of a little Léo, Bertille and Thomas wanted to exchange their wedding vows in St Tropez. A civil ceremony in the morning then direction Nikki Beach, a private beach dear to their hearts.
With the beautiful images of Fanny Tiara et The Michauds, Bertille tells us…
The initial meeting
"We were introduced by a mutual friend, who played matchmaker and was banking on love at first sight! And he was right, Thomas was living in London at the time and I was living in Paris, but we have never been apart since that day...
We are currently working together on the creation of the clothing brand Mouty Paris that we manage hand in hand."

The marriage proposal
“He proposed to me on a stormy evening while on holiday in Mauritius, everything was planned for an exclusive dinner on a deserted beach, but the weather forecast had predicted something else!
In the end it was just as successful, with hundreds of rose petals covering the ground of a pretty villa, with a local guitar player, and a beautiful hurricane outside…
An unforgettable memory!”

A wedding in Saint Tropez
“The location of our wedding has always been quite obvious to us, our little corner of paradise, our refuge, our most beautiful vacation with our son Léo: Saint-Tropez. We chose to celebrate our wedding at Nikki Beach in St-Tropez, a festive restaurant very dear to our hearts since it is on this superb beach that Thomas began his career as a VIP waiter.

Wedding planning
"I chose to organize our wedding alone, it's something that has always attracted and excited me! I had bought a big binder in which I put my ideas in order, the quotes from the service providers etc... Thomas was very present, he liked that I submit my ideas to him so that we could choose together. We made 2 round trips to the south, and met most of the service providers in Paris, everything was pretty well put together. Personally I didn't find it very difficult, you just have to be well ORGANIZED (and be able to devote a little time to it!).
We were lucky enough to celebrate our civil union in the charming and typical town hall of the village of Saint-Tropez at the end of the morning, under a beautiful sun! Later in the day, we headed to the Nikki Beach where we had orchestrated our secular ceremony at sunset followed by a reception around the swimming pool with a small fado concert (a tribute to Thomas' Portuguese origins) and then an incredible dinner under the stars to the wild rhythm of the Vogue Live band live!

Wedding decoration
“I found most of my inspiration on Pinterest (of course!), I have a passion for decoration so I already had a very precise idea of what I wanted… Far from the ostentatious side of Saint-Tropez, I wanted a bohemian-chic decor, romantic, all in white!
I chose to highlight the floral decoration, with a common thread: eucalyptus foliage, mixed with the raw wood of the tables and the white drapes. The place is already all white and very nicely decorated, there was not much to do!

The wedding budget in Saint Tropez
“We had a budget of €50K for our wedding, which we pretty much stuck to!”
Their best memory
« Our ceremony, just like us thanks to Father Antoine who was able to advise and support us, we wanted an authentic moment by mixing a touch of religion... This moment was like us, our respective wishes made ALL our guests (and service providers) cry, it was a very emotional moment, magnificently captured by Fanny Tiara and Les Michaud.
Advice from the newlyweds
“To put it simply: the day that suits you ! Don't let yourself be influenced by the desires and tastes of those around you, do everything according to your desires and this day will be a great success.
