Bringing the Asian spirit to the Swiss Alps, celebrity & destination wedding planner from Nicole Please Weddings’ vision was to create a cross-cultural East meets West theme.

The different culture-specific traditions are not only beautifully exhibited but are also highly respected in Switzerland.

Chinese Ceremony

Chinese wedding ceremonies have many rituals and traditions with symbolic meanings; these focus on blessings, feng shui, prosperity and anything that enhances the happiness of the couple.

Nicole Please Weddings has extensive knowledge of these symbolic meanings and intricate details and was able to supply the couple with the needed materials. This is demonstrated by featuring the traditional decorations inside the suites, the door games before the groom picks up the bride and the traditional Chinese Tea Ceremony. Despite distance, couples do not have to miss out on their traditional Chinese wedding ceremony rituals in a destination wedding in Switzerland.

Western Ceremony

The Lac Retaud was selected because of its intimate location and classic Swiss scenery. A beautiful, small-sized lake surrounded by lush greenery and majestic mountains encapsulated the entire ambience into one scene. With the distant ring of cowbells, the fresh alpine air, and the limited tourists this location is the perfect location for having a memorable Swiss experience and extraordinary background.
