Renewal of the wedding vows at La Grande Bastide
Renewing their wedding vows was a long-standing project for Nicole and Jean Claude who chose Le Golf de La Grand Bastide in Opio to celebrate the event.
Descended only a few years from the environs of Grenoble to settle in Mouans Sartoux they had long wanted to bring together their numerous family and their most faithful and old friends who to their great satisfaction almost all were able to respond favorably to the invitation. Yet the guests came from the four corners of the hexagon also most of them had taken the opportunity to take a few days off on the azure coast.
After a short ceremony conducted in person by the Mayor and a short stop in the gardens of the Chateaux of Mouans Sartoux, the wedding party went as one man towards the village church. The last marriage I had covered in this church; Yet so close: dated at least ten years ago that no one is a prophet in his country!
Curious, moreover, this church, whose many details remind us of certain chapels of New England. Dark side heart I was forced to sprinkle it of flash almost everywhere to regain an almost stable light. Yet the family had prepared an astronomical quantity of candles scattered around the heart and transepts, but if the visual result was magnificent to the eye it was not enough for most photos. At the church as well as at La Grande Bastide, much of the success and charm of the day is attributable to a group of close friends of the stars of the day. Brigitte and Anne Françoise for their vocal performances but also Marie Caroline and Pascal for their musical jokes absolutely delighted and seduced all the audience.
After the evening at the Club House of the Grand Bastide and a memorable cake cut in front of a real forest of cameras, almost everyone found the next day for a brunch with very family accents a few kilometers from the Golf.
