After my previous trip to France in May last year, I was eager to fly to the sunny South again for a wedding in the South of France. When I received an email from Mellaney and Joachim in October last year asking if I was still available to photograph their Destination Wedding, my heart naturally started beating a little faster. That didn't change when it turned out that Mellaney and Joachim are also a very nice couple. Then as far as I'm concerned, the fun can't stop! The necessary email contact followed, and I was soon allowed to put the date in my agenda, which of course resulted in a little dance of joy. A flight was booked, a car was rented, and the sweet bridal couple-to-be had even arranged a very nice B&B for me. Absolutely great! At the beginning of June I traveled again. From Amsterdam to Bordeaux, and from Bordeaux spend an hour or two trekking through the beautiful French landscape. And then I'm already starting to get an itch!
And then, the big day arrived. It was still exciting, because the weather forecasts were, to put it mildly, quite changeable. But we couldn't have had a more beautiful day. A lovely temperature, and with just a small cloud in front of the sun so that it didn't get too hot. Ideal. On Sunday morning I drove to beautiful Chateau Camp del Saltre. Wow, what a beautiful place! The group was still relaxing at breakfast and some music was played here and there. Wonderful, such a musical family! Arriving in such a nice atmosphere really feels like a warm bath, and the rest of the day is no different. How I enjoyed this day! The wonderful bridal couple, the wonderful and warm company, the beautiful wedding ceremony by Mark from Mooi Trouwen, delicious food and a fantastic party with live music from The Candy Stripes. The day ended with the release of a batch of wish balloons. That made this wedding complete. I'm still enjoying it now, and I hope you enjoy this photo series too. At the bottom of this photo series you will find a list of suppliers, each of whom made this day just that little bit more beautiful.
