Extravagant Wedding at Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild

Extravagant Wedding at Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild

via

Strap in as the most extravagant wedding we've ever featured on the blog is about to take off! For this wedding planned by Qui Weddings there really is no box to think outside off, as Antonia and Siegfried wanted to create a wedding experience that no-one had ever seen before!

The couples wedding experience starts in Germany for a chic civil ceremony before the couple pull the ultimate surprise and whisk their guests off to continue the celebrations. Throughout the wedding celebrations Antoina explores with effortless elegance a range of bridal styles to suit the specific section of the wedding.

So I will leave you with this, an an extravagant couple needs more than an outstanding wedding!

Wedding Planner Maja from Oui Weddings takes us through Antonia and Siefried's fabulous wedding: " When I first met Antonia & Siegfried in 2013, the only requirement they had for their wedding was that it needed to be something that had never been done before! In retrospective, I think we accomplished this goal and created an entire weekend that neither the couple nor their guests will ever forget.

On a Friday in June, the wedding weekend of Antonia & Siegfried started in Berlin, Germany. After the civil wedding ceremony, the couple met all family & friends at Berlin airport. Guests would soon realize that this no ordinary wedding: the custom wedding logo at the checkin as well as on and in the airplane, together with a special information booklet designed as a golden "passport" would guide them to a chartered airplane taking them to the couple's very own fairytale wedding in the South of France. Friday night, guests are expected at the port moure rouge in Cannes. Small zodiac boats picked them up for a 5 minute boat trip to the island of Marguerite where the first night all in white (soirée blanche) will take place. With their feet in the sand, guests can experience the beauty of Provence - most decor is kept rustic with lavender tones, old wooden wine barrels serve as high tables and old wine panels as a bar. On Saturday in June, the couple gets married in the cathedral of Grasse. Which is also decorated in the beautiful lavender tones of the French Riviera. At night, guests are expected at the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild for a fairytale evening that no-one could ever forget. Many fairytale characters already welcome everyone at the aperitivo, such as stilt walkers, a champagne lady, a ballerina in a box, a unicorn, violinists on top of gigantic rose pots. As the dinner and night continues, more and more fairytale characters mingle at the Villa, guiding guests to the highlight of the evening: the entire facade of the Villa is used as a video mapping screen, projecting the couple's very own fairy tale. "The little red riding hood" tells guests the story of how the bridal couple has met, got engaged and married. The finale pictures the couple getting into a carriage after their wedding ceremony. Thus, when guests look to the right side of the Villa's facade they will see an actual carriage "flying" through the skies. Once the carriage lands, the bridal couple exists and therefore completes the fairytale story! As you can imagine, all guests were stunned at wowed at this amazing performance and partied into the early morning hours."
