Lovisa and Henric's All-White Wedding at Villa La Vigie, Monaco by Jose Villa

Swedish content creator Lovisa Barkman married investor Henric Stenholm in June at Villa La Vigie, the white Belle Époque villa above the bay of Monaco and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin that was once Karl Lagerfeld's home. The weekend began with a welcome dinner at Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, where Henric had proposed. White Eden Weddings planned and designed it all, and Jose Villa photographed it, as featured in Over The Moon and Vogue France. Designer Rime Arodaky created Lovisa's custom ceremony gown: "minimalistic in one way, but yet dramatic with a big train and long veil." The couple married in a garden of white-only florals by Miss Rose by Perrine, then had a formal dinner with Élan Artists, fireworks over the sea and a late night on a dance floor dubbed "Club Stenholm."

I love this flat lay. Jose Villa styled it and put it together so beautifully, setting the bride's diamonds and two of my ivory ring boxes, a Georgian Oval in Dove Linen and a Dove Radiant Georgian Ring Box, on vintage black and white photographs of the Riviera.

FLAT LAY RECIPE:

A monochrome, story-led flat lay. Vintage black and white Riviera photographs set the scene, two ivory linen ring boxes hold the pear-shaped engagement ring and diamond drop earrings, and diamond tennis necklaces and the wedding bands trail across the prints. Thank you to Jose Villa for styling this flat lay so beautifully; pairing the bride's diamonds with vintage Riviera photographs tells the story of the place in a single frame.
