A Celestina Agostino Bride for a Colorful, Personal Jewish Wedding at Fortin de Corbières, Marseille, France

23/01/2023 by Karen Cinnamon

Rebecca-Jeremy-Fortin-de-Corbieres-South-of-France

Get ready to be transported to the beautiful South of France, where Parisians Rebecca and Jeremy held their absolute stunner of a Jewish wedding!

The pair fell in love with their venue, Fortin de Corbières, the moment they set eyes on it, and with its epic views overlooking the Bay of Marseille it’s easy to see why. It was the perfect spot for Rebecca and Jeremy’s exuberance-meets-elegance aesthetic, filled with bright florals and personal touches – there are SO many, but just for one don’t miss the name cards made with antique keys! Photographer Moonriver Prod captured them – and all the lovely details of the day – so perfectly.

When it came to choosing a kosher caterer for the special day, no one would do but the best of the best, and that was Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Dany’s Traiteur. Rebecca and Jeremy were thrilled with how delicious and well-presented the food was – and they got tons of compliments from their guests.

There’s lots more to say, but we’ll turn you over to Rebecca, who looked ever so elegant in her

Celestina Agostino dress, for the rest…

How we Met

Rebecca, the bride and Jeremy, the groom: We are both dentists and met during our first year at medical school. For Rebecca it was love at first sight but it took some time before they decided to go on a date. It was when we met again the following year at dentist school that we really got to spend some time together and made it official.Continue ReadingContinue Reading

A Lihi Hod Bride for a Bohemian Chic Outdoor Jewish Wedding with a Driftwood Chuppah at Le Rocher on Corsica, France

10/10/2018 by Karen Cinnamon

Jewish wedding La Rocher Calvi Corsica France_0086
Just when we think we’ve seen every amazing chuppah idea out there, a new Jewish wedding comes along and knocks us off our feet. Today, we’ve got a DRIFTWOOD CHUPPAH! And it could not possibly be a better match for the rugged beauty of the awesome (literally, as in truly awe-inspiring) outdoor venue in France.

The fantastic panoramic views of the mountains and the sea are just BEYOND — guess they didn’t name this fab venue “The Rock” (giving rise to Elsa and Stephane’s adorable hashtag, #weddingontherock), for nothing. We are so, so in love with Moonriverprod’s photos — they really didn’t miss an angle.

We’re also totally obsessed with the fact that these guys choreographed and performed a surprise dance inspired by Friends, as well as by their totally mouthwatering naked cake with red fruits, prepared by Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Dany’s Traiteur, tops for luxury kosher catering in the South of France (who also handled the rest of the menu, which looks UTTERLY delish too).

And for good measure, we’ve got some perfectly Parisian, mega-chic photos from the couple’s civil ceremony in their home city. We are totally swooning over them kissing in front of the Eiffel Tower.

Now we’ll hand you over to Elsa, who looked positively ravishing in her pearl-embellished top from Israeli designer, Lihi Hod, which she paired with a simple custom skirt…

Corsica

Elsa, the bride: The name of the venue is “Le Rocher” (“the rock” in French). It is on the island of Corsica (France), close to Calvi City. There is a wonderful 360 ° view overlooking the sea and the mountain.

The venue is very wild and authentic, with lot of vegetation: tamarisk trees, rocks, etc. It’s like the world’s end, with only nature and no construction.

You can have both the ceremony and the party outside (and keep going until 5am!). The weather tends to be very good in june (around 24-27 °C/75-80 °F).
