A Chic White Wedding at Château Gassies in Bordeaux
Set on a hillside near Bordeaux, Château Gassies offered Katie and Michael a setting of serene countryside calm and quiet grandeur. This 18th-century luxury wedding estate, with its limestone façade and manicured lawns, provided a natural canvas for their white-on-white celebration. Guests arrived to sweeping views across the vineyards and city beyond, while the château’s gardens framed the ceremony in polished symmetry. Ivory and white floral designs softened the architecture, and the couple exchanged vows beneath the late afternoon sun, surrounded by the unmistakable character of a French château in the South of France.
Getting Ready






The design embraced restraint and precision. White roses, hydrangeas, and baby’s breath were chosen for their tone and texture, forming full arrangements that filled the air with a light floral scent. The bride, Katie, wore a Milla Nova gown, its structure offset by a flowing Grace Loves Lace veil that moved gently in the Bordeaux breeze. Her bridesmaids, in ivory silk, mirrored the clean palette with quiet sophistication. As the evening light shifted across the gardens, guests gathered beneath linen-covered tables, the setting glowing softly in the warm summer light.
Ceremony






Every aspect of the day was photographed with clarity and sensitivity by Jamie Flood, one of the leading wedding photographers working in France. His images reflected both precision and atmosphere, balancing architectural details with human moments. Château Gassies appeared radiant in his frames, its stone terraces and cypress-lined paths forming elegant compositions. The floral design, refined attire, and golden light converged to define a celebration that felt modern yet deeply rooted in French tradition. The event flowed with ease from ceremony to dinner, an evening that lingered in the glow of the Bordeaux summer.
