SAINT TROPEZ, FRANCE
AIRELLES CHÂTEAU DE LA MESSARDIÈRE
After a search from Santa Barbara to Europe, Annie and Valeria found their dream wedding venue at Airelles Château de la Messardière, in the hills above Saint-Tropez. The Provençal gardens and 180-degree views of the Mediterranean, a chic, nearby beach club perfect for a Côte d’Azur Welcome Party, and twin tennis courts onsite for a fun-in-the-sun, country-club-themed Activity Day made it the perfect backdrop.
They exchanged vows in a romantic, heartfelt ceremony officiated by Annie’s brother. Cocktails, toasts, and an al fresco dinner in the Pampelonne Garden followed. Afterward, guests were invited to the cutting of a spectacular 14-foot-tall wedding cake by renowned pastry chef Cédric Grolet and surprised with a performance by Grammy-nominated artist RAYE.
Afterward, DJ Mutis kept the dance floor alive into the morning in the Château’s salon, with high-energy Latin sets and an unforgettable Hora Loca.
