A wedding at Talloires Abbey on the shores of Lake Annecy.

Florist Annecy

Last summer we discovered the surroundings of Annecy to this old priory that is The Abbey of TalloiresThe Abbey is a 4 star restaurant on the shores of the lake.
We fell under the charm of these places full of history which celebrates this year its 1000 years!

Our couple is adorable. Katja loves soft and elegant flowers and has chosen a refined bouquet of garden flowers. Her family is from Russia. Joseph will wear a boutonniere, his family is from Korea. The perfect match.

The floral design (created by Lilas Wood - Florist Annecy) is simple and elegant. A palette of soft colours, blush, peach, sage, cream with a touch of blue in reference to the lake. Foliage in shades of sage, green and grey. Katja was in love with garden roses so we selected a few varieties including the sublime David Austin Juliet rose or the sweet White O'Hara. For the accessories we chose silk ribbon as a finish, soft, simple and delicate. A few flowers accompanied the floral arrangements, which Sandrine BOYER ENGEL took the time to photograph with love: scabiosa, hydrangea, lisianthus, branched rose.

Katja and Joseph's wedding took place on a weekday, in complete privacy. A secular ceremony, a cocktail party accompanied by musicians and then a gourmet dinner in a private room on the estate.

Initially planned to take place in the gardens, with a view of the lake, the ceremony finally took place in the painting gallery on the first floor of the Abbey, due to the bad weather which announced some showers for the end of the day.
Our lovers still had time to enjoy the flowery exteriors, to take some pictures in the gardens and to embrace each other by the lake, under the lens of our talented photographer of the day.

For dinner, only a dozen people gathered around a long rectangular table, decorated with a wild garden style table runner, soft and refined.
A decor full of flowers, crystals and golden elements. An intimate and warm meal under the natural light of candlesticks, candleholders and glass candleholders. Luxurious materials and quality tableware. A linen tablecloth accompanied by napkins of the same fabric, in pastel shades of flowers.
The menu proposed by the restaurant was fine and delicate. At the end of the meal, a few flowers decorated the wedding cake.

An idea of modern romanticism.

We warmly thank Anne-Laure de Et Voilà Wedding for the trust she placed in us to create the floral design for this day.
