Anne & Antti

This super sweet Finnish couple is passionate about skiing, the mountains and trail running. They chose Chamonix as their second home because it offers so much to do and the views are unmatched. In love with the destination, it was only natural that they wanted to celebrate their wedding at the foot of Mont-Blanc and the famous summits that surround it. 

An intimate wedding weaving in a mixture of good fun, a warm and welcoming atmosphere, a tiny bit of glamour, and topped off with a little ‘chic French touch’!

It was in the charming little Protestant temple of Chamonix that they celebrated their union. A major highlight was their musician from Finland and her traditional instrument called a kantele. The instrument’s unique strumming melody accompanied by the musician’s angelic voice enamored the guests! It was an intense and very touching moment that warmed hearts and left several guests teary-eyed.

From the outset, Anne & Antti had the dream of getting married at altitude, with a breath-taking view of the Mont Blanc range. They were also very eager to have a good time and enjoy every single precious moment of their day. They, therefore, took the opportunity to surprise their guests by making their entrance to the reception, which was literally high in the mountains on a ski slope. They arrived by the groom on skis pulling his wife on an old wooden sled at an altitude of 2000m!! The photos speak for themselves, it was a very light-hearted, fun-filled moment that perfectly reflected their state of mind: we do not take ourselves too seriously!

It was a real pleasure to accompany this adorable couple in the organization of their Magical Day as they call it. We will stay in touch, that’s for sure!

I hope you could see last Saturday how MUCH we both enjoyed the day!! I was all just magic and beyond even our all expectations. We are speechless (which does not really happen that often with me). 

Also from my half, the words really feel insufficient to describe our gratitude to you, Magali. How perfectly everything went and how we got our absolute dream wedding! We will need still a few weeks, probably months (!!!) to digest our magical day.  As we said, words just feel really insufficient to express our thankfulness with its all magnitude.

We are so thankful for all the hard work you put in for our special day  I couldn’t ever dream for more magical wedding in Chamonix –  Merci du fond du cœur. – Finally Mrs. Belt
