There’s no place quite like the iconic City of Light for a luxury city wedding. The French capital exudes old-fashioned romance at every turn, with spectacular views and iconic backdrops throughout the city that ensure wedding portraits are sublimely stylish. If classic Parisian elegance is what you envision for your city wedding, you will fall head over heels for this chic inspiration editorial at the fashionable Hôtel Plaza Athénée.

Luxury Paris Wedding Venue

Located on illustrious Avenue Montaigne, the tree-lined boulevard of French fashion, Plaza Athénée is the ideal luxury venue for this city wedding. Neighboured by major haute-couture brands including Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Chloé, Céline, Saint Laurent, Prada, and Gucci, the opulent hotel fuses old-world grandeur with modern elegance, making it the venue for a luxury wedding in Paris.

Bridal Inspiration for a Paris Wedding

The bride, wearing an incredible Leah Da Gloria gown with three-dimensional floral embroidery, carries a cluster bouquet of blush and ivory roses that is stunning in its simplicity. Her classic chignon hairstyle is given a modern make-over with a strong parting, while makeup focuses on the eyes and is contrasted with a nude lip. There is a further nod to the chic nature of a Paris wedding with bold, fashion-forward statement earrings that beautifully complement the gown’s deep-v neckline.

Paris Wedding Reception

For a wedding reception in Paris, elegance and luxury are paramount, making David Austin Wedding Roses the obvious choice for the florals. Le Salon Organza, with its refined ambience overlooking a picturesque courtyard and the hotel’s iconic red canopies, sets the scene for this sophisticated city celebration. Our creamy roses add an additional layer of elegance to the wedding reception space with their glorious colour, character and scent. International fine art wedding designer and floral stylist Janna Brown used a rose selection that is classic and timeless in equal measure – Bessie, Keira, Leonora, Purity, Eugenie and Patience – to create a garden-inspired floral centrepiece to contrast with the salon’s gilded, glamorous setting.

City Wedding Portraits

From the exclusive suite at Plaza Athénée, the newlyweds toast their union with a glass of champagne on a balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower. They then embark on a journey through Paris, capturing bridal portraits at iconic locations such as the Louvre, Tuileries Garden, and Alexandre III Bridge. Each moment is a blend of romance and grandeur, perfectly encapsulating their luxurious Parisian city wedding.
