After an extensive search from Santa Barbara to Europe, Annie and Valeria found their dream wedding destination at Airelles Château de la Messardière, a stunning resort in the hills above Saint-Tropez. The Provençal gardens and sweeping 180-degree views of the Mediterranean made the Château the perfect backdrop. The icing on the cake: a chic, nearby beach club perfect for a Côte d’Azur Welcome Party, and twin tennis courts as the ideal site for a fun-in-the-sun, country-club-themed Activity Day.

The heart of the weekend was the wedding. Annie and Val 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 witness 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.

After the show, guests made their way to the Château’s salon, where Miami DJ Mutis kept the dance floor alive into the early hours with high-energy Latin sets and an unforgettable Hora Loca.
