Isabelle & Asrar // Destination Wedding, Lyon, France

One thing we absolutely love to do is travel and this season we traveled all over the world, with France being one stop on the map. We spent some time in Lyon, the second largest city in France next to Paris. It was one of the most charming cities we visited this year –walking the streets after sunset, sipping on rose and exploring the old city — so magical. In France its very common for a bride and groom to get married at City Hall first then throw a much bigger reception afterwards and that’s just what Isabelle and Asrar did…City Hall one day and a big Persian-French style wedding the next. It was quite the unique experience! Isabelle and Asrar showed us the best of the old part of Lyon where we had the chance to follow the cobble stone roads to tons of historic buildings with secret passageways at every turn; the very roads where they fell in love and their story began. The big day was hosted at a gorgeous mansion about an hour north of the city, with a tall tree lined road leading up to the house, a massive lawn leading up to the front door and ivy covered backyard, perfect for an outdoor wedding. Weddings in France are so different than the US…food is the main attraction, socializing and mingling is at the core of it all and with a 3 hour cocktail hour, I learned pretty quickly just how the French do it. Isabelle and Asrar shared so much of the French culture with us, it was a dream to photograph and can’t wait to go back again.
