Kate & Max marry on July 25, 2026 in Nice, on the French Riviera, among olive trees and paper parasols.

the ceremony

Guests sit on white chairs under paper parasols, with olive trees and mountains behind them. Pink and orange flowers stand on white stands, and young girls carry baskets down the aisle. The couple leaves through a shower of petals in a gravel courtyard.

the cocktail hour

Guests in summer outfits gather on a stone terrace with champagne, oysters and views of the hills. The wind lifts the bride's veil, and friends in light suits and top hats lift the groom into the air.

the portraits

The couple slows down by an old stone house with white shutters and tall wooden doors. The bride crosses the gravel barefoot, and the couple leans together on a low stone wall.

the dinner

Long tables sit in the garden beside a stone house, with hills and a valley beyond. After dark, string lights and candles light the tables, and the couple cuts a large raspberry tart topped with flowers.
