Vow Renewals

Today, many couples are choosing to have an intimate ceremony, then following it up with a bigger celebration with more friends and family back home. An elopement allows you to combine a small wedding with a honeymoon, and to record the event for your friends and family—thus offering a truly French touch to this most intimate and solemn of occasions. Ooh la la! France Wedding Planner can arrange your ceremony with a celebrant or a minister depending on your taste and wishes.
