Dream Wedding at Chateau de la Cote, France
DESTINATION WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN FRANCE | KSENIA PUCHINA
French Château Wedding with Island Soul
As a destination wedding photographer, I have the privilege of witnessing unforgettable love stories in some of the most stunning settings in the world. Morgan and Jake’s wedding in Brantôme was one of those truly magical experiences.
Hailing from the Florida Keys, this incredible couple brought with them the warmth, joy, and laid-back island vibe that makes the Keys so unique. Over 100 of their closest friends and family flew across the ocean to celebrate a beautiful three-day destination wedding in the heart of the French countryside.
Their venue, the breathtaking Château de la Côte, provided the perfect backdrop for their luxury celebration. Although the wedding day brought wind and rain, it only added to the atmosphere. Just as the ceremony began, the clouds parted to reveal a golden burst of sun — enough to fulfil Morgan’s dream of an outdoor wedding ceremony in France.
That brief sunlight allowed for some truly stunning aerial wedding photography of the castle and the couple. The rest of the day was filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments. Guests danced, celebrated, and made memories in the charming French château setting.
Working alongside such a talented and passionate team made this celebration even more unforgettable. The entire weekend was beautifully orchestrated by Poppy Marriage. Every detail was curated with elegance and intention. As a wedding photographer, I’m always inspired by couples who make their day truly their own. Morgan and Jake brought their whole world with them, and that energy filled every corner of the venue. It was a joy to document not just the beauty of the place, but the emotion, laughter, and connection that made this wedding so unique. Here’s a glimpse into their beautiful day — enjoy the gallery below and let yourself be transported to the heart of the French countryside.
