Elegant Summer Wedding at Hotel Belles Rives in Antibes

Wedding - French Riviera

Set on the sparkling shores of the French Riviera, the iconic Hotel Belles Rives in Antibes provided an extraordinary backdrop for Kristin & Drew’s elegant summer wedding. With its rich history, Art Deco charm, and privileged seaside location, this legendary hotel embodies the timeless luxury of the Côte d’Azur.

This wedding was a beautiful blend of elegance, romance, and refined luxury, filled with joyful moments and heartfelt emotions. Bathed in soft Mediterranean light, the celebration unfolded in a colorful and intimate atmosphere, where every detail reflected the couple’s vision of a dream wedding by the sea.

What made this day even more meaningful for me was the journey shared with Kristin & Drew. Two years earlier, I had the privilege of capturing their marriage proposal near Saint-Tropez. Being reunited with them to document their wedding day at Hotel Belles Rives was both an honor and a deeply rewarding experience. Witnessing their love story come full circle on the French Riviera was truly special.

Throughout the day, guests enjoyed breathtaking views over the Mediterranean Sea, elegant floral designs, and the relaxed sophistication that defines destination weddings in the South of France. From emotional vows to spontaneous laughter and unforgettable celebrations, every moment felt genuine and timeless.

An elegant summer wedding in Antibes offers couples the perfect balance between glamour and intimacy. Hotel Belles Rives, with its historic soul and waterfront setting, is one of the most sought-after venues for a luxury destination wedding on the French Riviera.

If you are planning a destination wedding in Antibes, Provence, or the Côte d’Azur, I would be honored to capture your story with authenticity, elegance, and emotion—creating timeless images that reflect your unique love.
