Paris Sightseeing

As this is not my first time in Paris, I actually know what exactly I'm going to check out again. Maybe in all that time, like 15 years on, things have changed but to my surprise Paris looks pretty much the same.




The weather was just wonderful, winter is definitely over and we had lots of sunshine. Walking through the streets of Paris of course the Champs Elysée a must do, some delicious food on the way, lots of coffee and macarons in gorgeous little street cafes, what else can I ask for.




We pretty much did what all tourists in Paris do sightseeing and some more sightseeing. Well, the special occasion and the main reason to come to Paris was the wedding, which was the absolute highlight of that trip.

Lets get married in Paris

Who would have thought that I will ever go to Paris to attend a wedding. This is what you normally watch on TV in a movie, but how often does it happen in real life? Well, my friend Sasa who I met in Perth a couple of years ago, who is part of my very close circle of friends decided to celebrate the wedding in Paris.
 


So I planed my trip to Paris spending like 4 days in Paris the city of Love, doing some sightseeing and of course celebrating my friends special day in style. The venue the Shangri-La Hotel near the Seine and from the balcony the view of the Eifel Tower, breathtaking!

The guest list included people from around the globe. It was great to be able to speak English which I missed a bit over the past year, here I had the chance. I can say most of the people I met I will probably never see again however that night belonged to us and we exchanged interesting conversations, some laughter and some serious topics as most people came from the US.



From start to finish it was the best wedding I ever attended, well organised and executed, the cuisine a dream, the service just wonderful. Sasa & Buzz, it was a night I will never forget and being part of your special day meant a lot to me. The bride was just beautiful and I finally got to meet the man in Sasa's life, now her husband.

I can't thank you both enough for letting me be a part of your special night, to celebrate love and happiness. It was a perfect wedding....like a fairy tale just magical.


Congratulations
