The Paris Wedding Show

A bride arriving by helicopter for her guests is the most amazing entrance I have seen as a celebrant. But it is not what stays with me. In this short solo episode, I share the smaller moments: families who were separated for years, by distance or family politics, choosing to be in the same room again on the wedding day. You do not see it, you feel it, in the looks and in the hugs at the back of the room. I also explain why the bride sometimes tells me far more than I expect, and what it means to be part of that moment.

In this episode of The Paris Wedding Show, I had the pleasure of speaking with Tanya, also known as The Vow Whisperer — a globally recognized celebrant and vow coach redefining how modern couples express love. Tanya was the very first guest on the show, and bringing her back for a second conversation felt like a full-circle moment. Since then, her work has continued to evolve at the intersection of storytelling, performance, and emotional truth. In this episode, we explore how the 2026 wedding season is shaping up — from shifting booking patterns to what couples are truly prioritizing today. We also dive into how AI is quietly entering the world of weddings, especially when it comes to writing vows, and what that means for authenticity. Tany shares her perspective on how Gen Z approaches weddings differently — how they consume, choose, and express — and why traditional formats are being challenged more than ever. We also go deeper into her craft: the difference between writing something beautiful and something real, the invisible work behind impactful ceremonies, and why vows today sit somewhere between intimacy and performance. This conversation is about understanding what weddings are becoming, and what still truly matters.   Find out more about Tanya here: https://www.instagram.com/thevowwhisperer/   Get more information on my wedding ceremonies: https://www.pariscelebrant.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theparisiancelebrant/

In this solo episode of The Paris Wedding Show, I dive into one of the most common questions couples ask me: “How long should our wedding ceremony in Paris be?” Spoiler alert—this isn’t a question of minutes. It’s a question of meaning. I break down why the ceremony isn’t just a box to tick, but the emotional centerpiece of your entire wedding day. Whether you’re planning an elopement or a full-scale destination wedding, the timing of your ceremony can either elevate the experience—or flatten it completely. I walk you through: The ideal ceremony length (and why under 10 minutes usually means you’ve missed the point) What adds time and value vs. what’s just filler How to balance emotional depth with logistical reality The real reason a 20-minute ceremony can feel like five—or forever This is a no-fluff, honest take on how to respect the moment without overdoing it. If you want a ceremony that leaves people breathless instead of checking their watches, this episode is for you.
