Photo: Fred Marigaux1/32I grew up in England and always thought I wanted to get married in an English garden. Teddy was adamant about being near the water. Given that the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc has the most enchanted English gardens, it was a perfect middle ground.
Photo: Shaun James Cox2/32My favorite thing to do at Hôtel du Cap is jump off this diving board. Saturday morning, right before I went into five hours of hair and makeup for the ceremony, I decided to take one last plunge for the weekend.
Photo: Shaun James Cox3/32I wore white all weekend and this morning happened to be wearing Alessandra Rich.
Photo: Shaun James Cox4/32I never looked out the window and didn’t see friends in the water all weekend long.
Photo: Fred Marigaux5/32My friends from college have moved across the world since graduation. It was such a privilege to reunite them all in the South of France.
Photo: Fred Marigaux6/32We were so lucky to have July weather in October. Each day was a better pool day than the last.
Photo: Fred Marigaux7/32My wedding planners Fait Accompli took my summer camp suggestion seriously and set up a range of activities everyday. They had pétanque champions from across the region come and referee Friday afternoon games.

Photo: Fred Marigaux9/32I took my flower inspiration from the gardens of the hotel itself.

Photo: Shaun James Cox13/32Hair and makeup took about five hours.
Photo: Shaun James Cox14/32The zipper broke on my dress five minutes before I walked down the aisle. Olivier had to sew me in and I was so nervous that they didn’t even tell me what had happened.
Photo: Fred Marigaux15/32I wanted the chuppah to look like a continuation of the hotel gardens. I didn’t want it to overpower the already incredible space.
Photo: Fred Marigaux16/32We had to widen the aisle an hour before the ceremony because we realized at the last minute that the dress wasn’t going to fit!
Photo: Shaun James Cox17/32The sunset was very cooperative.
Photo: Fred Marigaux18/32I’ve practiced this walk many times, and it’s long. But my dad was telling me jokes the whole way down and I felt very relaxed the entire time.
Photo: Fred Marigaux19/32Seeing everyone together, having come so far to be there, was amazing.
Photo: Shaun James Cox20/32Only our parents and the rabbi stood under the chuppah with us. The guests stood throughout the entire ceremony, which I don’t know was entirely necessary!
Photo: Fred Marigaux21/32I was so relieved when Teddy told me he liked the dress.
Photo: Fred Marigaux22/32My bridesmaids looked insanely amazing in Prabal Gurung. I was so lucky to have this group of girls from London, from Princeton, and Teddy’s sisters.
Photo: Fred Marigaux23/32The dress is the embodiment of Olivier’s very first sketch. Everything from the feathery embroidery to the train was my dream.

Photo: Shaun James Cox26/32Teddy and I worked on the soundtrack for the fireworks for literally an entire month and we still listen to it every day.
Photo: Shaun James Cox27/32I’ve been wearing Prabal since his first collectsion. He’s not only one of my best friends, he’s also one of my favorite designers to wear. He simply had to be a part of this day.
Photo: Fred Marigaux28/32Prabal’s dress looks good for the hora.

Photo: Fred Marigaux30/32Teddy’s friends were very able to get the party started. My husband seemed to be in the air for much of our reception.
Photo: Fred Marigaux31/32Around 3 a.m., it was time for velvet Saint Laurent shorts and a Balmain jacket to get some real dancing in.
