Two words: French Dream ! You haven’t witnessed royalty, romance and luxury until you’ve seen this Saudi couple’s lavish wedding celebration at Château Vaux-le-Vicomte in France.
We know it is all magical and dreamy to get married in France, but what about starting your happily ever after in an Iconic castle built back in the 17th century? Oh, and one more thing, this historic castle happens to be considered the most beautiful castle in the world and the inspiration behind Versailles! Well, Lama Abdulkarim and Mohammed AlBassam definitely knew how to draw the perfect start for a guaranteed life of ultimate happiness.
As we reminisce that lavish wedding, we can assure you that it was just like watching a great period movie: Dreamy, surreal, and you’d definitely not want it to end. Each guest was transported to the riverside ceremony via a carriage with two horses and two coachmen. The location will slid right into your hearts as you take a look over its gorgeous gardens and lakes.
Dressed in a sleeveless custom-made Alexander McQueen gown, the bride made her grand entrance to the lyrics of a song written by her mother and performed by celebrity Saudi Arabian singers Abdul Majeed and and Dalia. She walked in to the beat of an epic synchronized dancing fountain show.
As the sun set, guests were requested to ride the carriages back to the indoor salon of the castle for the dinner reception. Hundreds of candles contoured the route from the garden to the castle, which was beautifully illuminated with various changing colors. The guards of King’s Court guided guests to the dinner reception upon arrival.
After the sophisticated course meals, it was time to take it outdoors. A party under the starry sky awaited with a selection of artistic desserts. To top it off, ballerina dancers gathered around the cake base and constructed an 8-tiers wedding cake. At this exact moment, the party was elevated by a ten-minute long firework show that lit up the French sky and the majestic allées of the garden.
And just when we thought this wedding couldn't get any better, Famous singer Ahlam Al Shamsi made her way in and performed till dawn.
This wedding was so perfectly French-chic that Marie Antoinette would be jealous !
