Our Story
The First Meeting
One rainy day, fate brought us together in the park at Boulogne-Billancourt. We were planning to play ping-pong, but the rain changed our plansβand gave us an evening over a glass of wine, warm conversation, and a walk home. We didn't yet know whether this meeting would be the beginning of our love story... but it was the beginning of our "forever."
The Proposal
In September, we had a picnic in the park on Place des Vosges: strawberries, champagne, and a warm Parisian evening among the old linden trees. I chose this place for a reasonβLouis XIII once laid out this park in honor of his engagement to Anne of Austria, and I wanted our story to be part of that romance. As the sun slowly set behind the arches of the square, I got down on one knee, took out my ring, and asked you to be my wife. And at that moment, all of Paris seemed to freeze to hear your "I do."
Forever Begins
Surrounded by their closest and dearest, Elena and Dmitry will celebrate one of the most important days of their lives at ChΓ’teau des Demoiselles. Among the vineyards, ancient walls, and warm light of the south of France, they will vow eternal love, fidelity, and the happiness of being together no matter what.
