Design Notes: Provençal Light and Timeless Romance

The wedding unfolded beneath wide blue skies, the ceremony shaded by olive trees and led by the bride’s mother a personal touch that set the tone for the day. Guests mingled among the gardens and loggias as the scent of lavender drifted through the air.

Every corner of the property, from its covered terraces to the sparkling pool, carried the relaxed sophistication of Provence. A beautifully organized cocktail hour followed, accompanied by fine local cuisine and quiet conversation in the fading light.
