September's Bliss

I thought It would be quite pretty to choose "Alice in wonderland" as a thema for my little girl's birthday. I really had such pleasure to organize It, I made some researches on the internet to find vintage illustrations to use on invitations, labels... I found lovely cake cutters in tea cups shapes. And I used an old birdcage to make a kind of 3d scene of the book by cutting illustrations of Alice and a rabbitt from a vintage book and glue them in different places of the birdcage as if they were moving. Suzie seemed to love, she will appreciate a little bit more when she grow up and see the photos...

This tea party was so yummy ! And the cake was absolutely gorgeous !

I didn't know where to begin to shoot, everything was so beautiful and delicate ! The menu design was so great, It has been created by Laure and Julien.

I totally fell in love with this event that Laure and Julien organized to celebrate their 5 year's wedding anniversary. Like me, they are big fans of Alice in Wonderland so they have chosen this movie as a thema for this day. The castle was beautifully decorated by themselves with teacups, cupcakes, rabitts... in pastels colors, It was really a dream for me to shoot this event ! Here is the first part : the couple pictures.

Eva and Patrick are a couple from the Netherlands, Their wedding made me begin so beautifully my wedding season ! They chose the magnificient castle of Mairy-sur-Marne to celebrate this day with their family and friends came from the Netherlands for the occasion. The ceremony took place in the garden of the castle in the American way (I love this kind of ceremony !!!), It was a wonderful moment full of emotions. Eva decorated everything herself excepts some accessories that she bought on Etsy. I especially loved the cocktail, instead of the traditionnal "amuse-bouches" were croissants and other french pastries served with tea. The beautiful cocktail table made me think of "Alice in wonderland" with all these retro tea cups, old boxes and peonies.

On the occasion of the release of Tim Burton's movie, "Alice in Wonderland", Ladurée, creator of the famous macaroons has opened a lovely tearoom in the store Printemps Haussmann in Paris. We are directly transported in the dreamlike universe of the film which goes very well in that of the macaroons Ladurée.

I'm so impatient to see "Alice in Wonderland", to wait I went to "Printemps Haussman" in Paris. On the occasion of the release of Tim Burton's movie, the department store urged several creators to confront their vision of the famous fair heroin and its universe moved with that of the American director. Haider Ackermann, Charles Anastase, Manish Arora, Chloé, Ann Demeulemeester, Christopher Kane, Alexander McQueen, House Martin Margiela and Bernhard Willhelm all left free court with their imagination to create their Alice's own dress. Nicholas Kirkwood, as for him, imagined his Alice's ideal shoe.
These unique parts are exposed in the shop windows of the boulevard Haussmann: the decoration of every shop window resume a key scene of the film reproduced in black and white, with an element in 3D cut XXL as a pink huge or an immense clock. We can also admire a beautiful dress by Alexander Mc Queen. So so lovely !!!
