Just outside Paris, Château de Champlâtreux set the scene for Cristina and Dustin’s wedding. The grand château, with its sweeping lawns, stone staircases, and wide open views, offered a setting that felt both elegant and romantic. The day unfolded across the château’s many beautiful spaces - ceremony moments framed by the gardens, portraits on the steps and terraces, and golden light spilling across the grounds as evening fell. The mix of architecture, greenery, and soft light gave the celebration a timeless atmosphere.
Cristina and Dustin added their own thoughtful details to this day: from the bride embroidering her own veil with hundreds of flowers, designing her wedding gown, adding a red Chinese tea ceremony look to the day, or the groom’s tie clip with a portrait of their beloved dog - everything felt so personal and unique. From the styling of the reception to the small touches woven into each part of the celebration, the château became not just a backdrop but a reflection of their story. One of the most unforgettable moments were a vibrant lion dance, filling the reception with energy, color, and joy and fireworks at the end of the night. Their choices brought warmth and personality to a place already full of beauty, making the celebration both grand and deeply personal.
