Nadia and James were supposed to spend their May wedding anniversary celebrating their love in France. Given the current global circumstances, their plans had to change. But don’t worry, their anniversary was still pure magic! Together with the incredible help of Berry Vintage Wedding and Event Hire, France was recreated in their backyard.
The New Plan…
Nadia and James celebrated their first wedding anniversary this year. Due to the lockdown and restrictions that were put in place for Covid-19, their plans had to change last minute. Originally, they were supposed to spend the entire month travelling in celebration of a delayed honeymoon, anniversary and birthday trip. However, when the trip was cancelled, they had to come up with a romantic plan B!
Au Revoir…
The two lovers couldn’t wait to experience the romance and history of Paris, the colours of Provence and the glamour of the Riviera. Nadia and James weren’t going to let Covid-19 take away from their anniversary. They decided “we have a big back yard, let’s bring France to us!”.
LA VIE EN ROSE…
The couple had their hearts set and knew exactly what they wanted for their special anniversary! Their french themed at-home celebration was entitled “La Vie En Rose” which translates to “Life through rose coloured glasses”.
PRETTY IN PINK…
When creating their anniversary, the couple envisioned a “fun, Dior perfume advert and Bridgette Bardot song”. They wanted their backyard to be turned into a lush and over the top pastel explosion filled with pretty pink and dusty rose colours. Everything was styled with a French tone and the outcome was incredible! Now the couple just needed the perfect people to make their vision a reality…
MAKING THE DREAM COME TRUE…
Together, Nadia and James spent hours browsing for a hire company that could help them bring France to their backyard! Finally, they found the ideal fit – Berry Vintage Wedding and Event Hire. The family-run business was everything they hoped for. They have amazing experience with artistic style and execution of unique ideas, so they were perfect for the job!
THE CREATION PROCESS…
Together with the company owners Renee and Daniel, the couple could finally translate their vision into reality! Berry Vintage couldn’t wait to begin working on this project with them. The couple says “they went out of their way to achieve a vision that at that point, was just an idea”. The owners knew exactly how to make their anniversary dreams come true and no request was too big for them!
THE SPECIAL DAY…
The couple were stunned by how incredible the final look was! Within a few hours, they successfully turned their backyard into a Paris themed dream anniversary. When the couple saw the outcome, they said they couldn’t believe their eyes. “Everything they promised, they delivered. The team transformed our backyard site into a French vintage perfume advert”.
INSPIRATION TO ALL COUPLES…
As the couples La Vie En Rose dream came to life, they dined in their little chateau in the flower fields of France and danced under the stars of their Gazebo until daylight. “The best day, in the best way possible, and the best people made it happen in a time where we really made the absolute very best out of a bad situation.” So for all the couples out there, don’t forget to not let anything get in the way of your dreams.
