Vintage wedding at Château le Brossay
There are a thousand ways to celebrate love. By thought, attention, words. Love sweeps everything before it. It gives wings to whoever receives it. Like a providential gift, love cannot be measured. It transcends being and having. To be loved and to give in return is also to let go. To abandon oneself to the other without thinking about tomorrow.
Here we celebrate Love every day. With your beautiful days that transport us each time in a whirlwind of emotions. But today for all the valentines, I wanted to share an atmosphere that has no age. A wedding inspiration of yesteryear drawn in Britain in the refined setting of Brossay Castle.
Ingrid Thierry, the instigator of this shooting gives us her inspirations and her images…
The Memorial
"The Brossay is a magnificent castle, located in the heart of Brittany in a green setting. It is its character, its old tapestries and its charm that made us want to create there. A unique atmosphere emerges from it, the charm of the Renaissance and its old furniture in a setting of absolute serenity. It was the ideal place to give birth to our project.

The shooting team
The wedding dress was the central element of the shoot. We wanted a vintage look, champagne-colored with an elegant cut. The team of Paviot Creator was able to offer us a veil and earrings highlighting the vintage and poetic inspiration while remaining sober and timeless elegance.
We proposed two bouquets for our bride: a voluminous, lively and textured one, and another smaller one, ideal for bridesmaids for example.
The invitation suite and the menus are intended to be textured and poetic. A sensory wave emerges from them, complementing the table design. The greeting booklets, delicately edged with a silk satin ribbon, are delicate and transport us.

The scenography
"The floral scenography brings modernity and audacity to the great hall of the castle dressed in woodwork and tapestries. A range of red and burgundy flowers decorates the center of the table around old candlesticks and bunches of fresh fruit.
We set our table in the French style with refined silverware.
