Ruby and Ezra traveled to the quaint town of Grasse, France for their stylish destination wedding at the Château St. Georges!
Ruby and Ezra were introduced at Ruby’s annual New Year’s Eve party. They didn’t exchange numbers, but Ezra left a lasting impression.
His presence left a lasting impact. He remained a fond memory in the back of my mind…

One year later, Ruby asked about Ezra’s relationship status. Upon hearing about Ruby’s inquiry, Ezra wasted no time and messaged her that day. Their conversation lasted all night, until the early hours of the morning.
Ezra proposed to Ruby at a romantic dinner on May 6, 2021. He was so nervous that he passed out. Ruby thought it was cute and of course said, “Yes!”.
Featuring warm summer tones, bold blues, gold accents, and crystal embellished decor, Ruby and Ezra’s destination wedding style was bold and stylish. The unique color palette perfectly complimented the Château and the surrounding nature of the French Riviera.
Both being from Haiti, Ruby and Ezra incorporated Haitian music and danced with the Haitian flag during their lively reception. They had an unforgettable time celebrating their union with family and friends.
Ruby’s best advice…
Go for it. Get married. Make your dreams come true. The moment will be in your memory forever and ever.
