A Multicultural Wedding Celebration in Bordeaux
Manuela and Médéric, a couple both working full-time jobs, dreamed of getting married in the Bordeaux region to celebrate their eleven years of being together.
Living in another French city, they wanted a festive environment where their families coming from abroad could mingle, most of whom didn't know each other. They also wanted their wedding to honour their multicultural relationship.
As soon as they got engaged, they reached out to us for help. With our full planning and design, we took care of everything, sourcing all the vendors and being present at every site visit, menu tasting, and vendor meeting in Bordeaux. This allowed the couple to have their normal lives without sacrificing their evenings and weekends to wedding planning.
We planned and designed a two-day event, an ode to both Manuela's Bamiléké people heritage (Cameroun) and Médéric's Normandy (France) childhood. Set in the19th century castle, Château Lafitte in the Bordeaux region, this weekend united both families around mouth watering cuisines from France and Cameroon, and amazing dance moves. The couple and their guests danced until dawn, and we were thrilled to have helped make their dream wedding a reality.
“I am extremely grateful to Tiega for creating an unforgettable experience during my engagement party. It was one of the most memorable moments of my life. Tiega truly understood my personality and managed to beautifully capture both our love and our accomplishment of purchasing a new house.”
A Surprise Wedding Celebration for a Longtime Couple
A Parisian couple enlisted our team to make their dream wedding celebration come true, despite having only four weeks to plan and no venue or vendors booked for their reception. They wanted a unique format for their celebration, envisioning a day spent with loved ones, full of activities they enjoyed doing as a family, with great food and French wine.
From our first consultation, we understood that this was not just their wedding, but a gift to themselves and their family, after the tough COVID period. We came up with the concept of "Comme À La Maison" (Just like home), where guests would enjoy a relaxed day with activities like karaoke, blind tests, and couple's quizzes.
Despite the challenging time frame, we were able to create an event that reflected the couple's personalities, from the delicious charcuterie and French wine to the fun activities and music. The couple and their family were thrilled with the celebration, and we were already planning for their daughter's 25th birthday.
