This intimate Icelandic couple’s wedding at Château Engalin was a beautiful fusion of romance and modern artistry, set in the heart of Southwest France. This unforgettable wedding in France captured the couple's unique style and love story, even as unexpected rain brought their ceremony indoors. The chic, light-filled interiors of Château Engalin provided a stunning backdrop, perfectly complementing the couple’s elegant yet modern aesthetic.
The day was filled with heartfelt moments, breathtaking portrait sessions amidst the lush countryside, and captivating performances that added a personal touch. One highlight was a soulful set by Icelandic singer Yohanna, Eurovision 2009 runner-up, whose melodies created a deeply emotional atmosphere. From the champagne tower to the gourmet dinner under a dreamy tent adorned with soft lighting and elegant décor, every detail reflected the couple’s vision for a sophisticated and joyful wedding in France.
As the evening unfolded, the celebration became even more dynamic. The couple’s spontaneous first dance set the tone for a night of incredible energy and excitement. Guests were treated to two unforgettable live performances: Yohanna’s moving vocals and an energetic set from Icelandic rapper Herra Hnetusmjör. The crowd was electric, dancing and cheering as the performances brought everyone together in celebration.
The venue’s stylish indoor space, designed like an upscale club with a chic bar, was ideal for the late-night festivities. Music, laughter, and joy filled the air as Château Engalin proved once again why it is an exceptional choice for a wedding in France.
This magical celebration showcased not just the couple’s love but the versatility and charm of hosting a wedding in France. Château Engalin truly became the stage for a memorable day filled with artistry, elegance, and unforgettable moments.
