The Venue: Why Chateau Lartigolle Is a Dream Wedding Location
Chateau Lartigolle is one of those places that has it all.
Nestled in the heart of the French countryside, it’s got that perfect mix of rustic charm and refined elegance. Think ivy-covered walls, rolling vineyards, and the kind of light that makes everything look like it belongs in a magazine.
Every corner feels cinematic, which is a dream come true when you’re working with film photography.
Danielle & Jacob’s Wedding: Highlights from the Day
Let’s break down the magic because this wedding had everything.
1. A Ceremony in the Wine Cellar
How’s this for unforgettable?
Danielle and Jacob said their “I do’s” surrounded by candlelight and the rich, earthy scent of wine barrels.
The cellar created this intimate, almost sacred atmosphere, and capturing it on film added so much depth and texture to the images.
2. Champagne & Oysters for the Win
Post-ceremony, guests were treated to champagne and freshly shucked oysters on the chateau’s terrace.
The vibe was laid-back but elegant—perfect for mingling, candid photos, and soaking in those South of France summer vibes.
3. An Outdoor Wedding Breakfast
Picture this: long tables set under the open sky, adorned with soft linens, candles, and seasonal blooms.
The food was as exquisite as you’d expect in France, and the atmosphere was warm, intimate, and filled with laughter.
Photographing it felt like stepping into a modern-day fairytale.
4. Golden Hour Perfection
After dinner, we snuck away for a sunset photo session.
The light was chef’s kiss, casting a dreamy, golden glow over the vineyard.
These are the kinds of moments where film photography truly shines, capturing every nuance of light and emotion in a way that feels timeless.
5. Dancing Under Festoon Lights
The night ended under a canopy of festoon lights, with guests dancing barefoot on the grass.
The energy was electric, the love was palpable, and the photos? Let’s just say they’re some of my favourites ever.
