Getting Married in Cannes — Glamour, Light & Timeless Riviera Style

A wedding videographer’s look at one of France’s most iconic coastal destinations.

Cannes is a name that instantly evokes elegance, the Croisette, palm-lined boulevards, golden Mediterranean light, and a spirit of cinematic glamour unlike anywhere else on the Riviera. For couples dreaming of a wedding that blends luxury with a relaxed coastal atmosphere, Cannes offers a setting that feels both polished and effortlessly vibrant.

A city where celebrations feel cinematic by nature

Cannes has a rhythm that suits weddings perfectly. Mornings are bright and calm, afternoons glow with warm Riviera light, and evenings carry that unmistakable “French Riviera after dark” energy. Every part of the day offers something visually striking for a wedding film.

As a videographer, what I love about Cannes includes:
— the soft, golden reflections off the sea
— the iconic Croisette and its coastal perspectives
— refined hotel interiors with a sense of old-world glamour
— the lively, joyful atmosphere that naturally brings out emotions

Cannes is made for storytelling that feels stylish and full of life.

A collection of iconic wedding venues

The city is home to some of the Riviera’s most prestigious addresses:
Hôtel Barrière Le Majestic
InterContinental Carlton Cannes
Hôtel Martinez
Private villas in Californie-Pezou and Super-Cannes
Each space brings its own interpretation of luxury, from pure Art Deco refinement to modern, sun-filled coastal elegance.

Perfect for couples who want celebration and sophistication combined

Cannes is ideal for weddings that balance festivity with refinement. Whether it’s a ceremony on a private terrace overlooking the sea, a sunset portrait session on the Croisette, or a lively evening reception in a luxury villa, the energy here is unmistakably joyful.

How I approach filming in Cannes

My goal is to blend the glamorous setting with genuine, unscripted moments, the interactions between families, the small details, the natural emotions unfolding throughout the day. Cannes provides the perfect canvas for a wedding film that feels polished yet intimate.

Getting Married in Cap-Ferrat — Understated Luxury on the French Riviera

A videographer’s perspective on one of Europe’s most exclusive coastlines.

Cap-Ferrat is unlike anywhere else on the Riviera. Quiet, elegant, and surrounded by endless views of the Mediterranean, this peninsula feels almost hidden from the rest of the world. With its Belle Époque villas, fragrant pines, and serene coastal paths, it’s an exceptional setting for a wedding that’s both sophisticated and intimate.

A unique atmosphere and natural light

Cap-Ferrat has a very distinct kind of light, soft, luminous, and constantly shifting between shades of blue and green. Throughout the day, the landscape transforms quietly, offering cinematic tones that are perfect for a refined wedding film.

As a videographer, what inspires me most here are:
— the dramatic sea horizons
— the peaceful Mediterranean gardens
— the calm, elegant ambience
— the authentic, unforced moments couples naturally fall into
Cap-Ferrat doesn’t need grand gestures; it shines through subtlety and beauty.

Iconic venues for an elevated celebration

The peninsula is home to some of the Riviera’s most prestigious venues:
Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel
Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild with its remarkable gardens
Private waterfront villas overlooking the Mediterranean
Every location tells a different story, rooted in luxury, heritage, and effortless elegance.

Perfect for intimate and stylish weddings

Cap-Ferrat is ideal for couples who want a celebration that feels exclusive without being ostentatious. Whether it’s a ceremony by the sea, a cocktail in a leafy garden, or a candlelit dinner with panoramic views, the atmosphere naturally elevates every moment.

A cinematic approach that remains personal

My goal when filming in Cap-Ferrat is to combine the beauty of the place with moments that feel real, gestures, laughter, fleeting looks, the quiet in-between details. The result is a wedding film that’s elegant, emotional, and deeply personal.
