Get ready for a wedding journey that’ll make your heart skip a beat and your champagne flute overflow.
Villa Ephrussi De Rothschild
If Joan Didion would describe what entering this iconic venue would feel like, perhaps it would go something like this. “Entering the gardens of Villa Ephrussi, one traverses the threshold of time. The air carries whispers of a bygone era, where lush greenery unfolds with the grace of a forgotten sonnet. Paths wind like sentences, leading to hidden alcoves where one can pause, reflecting on the passage of moments. Amidst this verdant reverie, one confronts the unending tide of existence, where beauty and transience converge in a delicate dance, much like the gardens themselves.” This venue is ethereal and tbh, a bit surreal. Hosting your wedding here feels like you’re allowed to enter a pocked of quite timelessness, a place of refuge from the real world. A perfect setting for your once in a lifetime event.
