The Details: French Flair at Every Turn

From the moment guests arrived, they were immersed in the Parisian theme. The ceremony took place in the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden, a fitting choice given the garden’s resemblance to the iconic French rose gardens. The bride wore a stunning lace gown that gave off Parisian couture vibes, while the groom looked sharp in a classic black tuxedo, reminiscent of a dapper French gentleman.
