Some ideas begin with time. This one began with a mountain. Eight weeks later, Lucy and Darren's guests were standing at 2,880 metres above sea level, surrounded by snow and the extraordinary silence of the Alps.

EIGHT WEEKS
from concept
to celebration.
A WEDDING at
2,880 METRES.
Then the weather changed. Storm and avalanche conditions disrupted the plan. The plan moved. The experience remained.

There was no need to compete with the landscape. Our work was to understand when to intervene and when to leave space — allowing snow, altitude, architecture and atmosphere to become part of the design.












At altitude, transport, access and timings can change without warning. With two days remaining, 15% of the flowers had to be replaced. The plan moved. The experience remained. Guests never saw the machinery behind the replanning.












What began as an eight-week commission became one of our most recognised celebrations, reaching approximately 50 million people worldwide. Its significance, however, remained with the people who were there — experiencing the wedding Lucy and Darren came to have.
