Bastide de Marie wedding, Provence

Katie & Jacob brought both of their families from the U.S. to Provence for their destination wedding that felt deeply intimate, profoundly personal, and unmistakably French. They chose La Bastide de Marie, a discreet 5-star Provençal hotel, where every stone carries that authentic South-of-France charm, and they turned it into a true family retreat for two unforgettable days.

a welcome dinner designed as a warm reunion: long conversations, candlelit ambiance, and genuinely exceptional French cuisine. Generous, elegant, and made to be shared.

on the wedding day, The ceremony itself was the heart of the weekend: small, intimate, and emotionally powerful, with vows that left no one untouched. The reception carried the same refinement, with elevated table styling built around a bold yet timeless green and red palette: lush, editorial, and perfectly balanced against the bastide’s warm, rustic textures.

And then the night shifted. The energy exploded into a party that was, simply, absolutely wild. The kind of dance floor where elegance and chaos coexist in the best way, where everyone is fully present, and the celebration becomes pure joy.
