For an unforgettable destination experience, Bruna and João traveled all the way from Brazil for a luxurious Château de Champlatreux wedding. The talented Opaline Events designed a day brimming with old-world romantic details and French luxury. Floresie created jaw-dropping florals, including multiple large urns and a magnificent arch of pink baby’s breath and lilies. It all took place at the centuries-old Château de Champlatreux just outside of Paris.
To start the day, Bruna and João enjoyed getting ready at their nearby accommodations in Chantilly. After arriving at the chateau—Bruna by way of a Rolls Royce—they held a traditional Portuguese ceremony in the gardens. Immediately after, they launched the day’s celebrations with a fabulous cocktail hour before an evening meal at sunset. They ended the extravaganza with a firework show, a dessert room of Ladurée macarons towers, champagne galore, and dancing under chandeliers.
Bruna looked radiant in a custom gown by Brazilian designer Wanda Borges. She kept her accessories classic with Alexandre Birman shoes and Cartier stud earrings—a wedding gift from her parents. The guests all looked runway-ready with vibrant gowns and iconic fashion choices.
All-in-all, it was a remarkable, unforgettable destination experience for Bruna, João, and all their guests.
