Fanny and Nicolas were not the only two who looked fabulous in their wedding attire on their special day. Nicolas' father had 'dressed-up' their two Mini Cooper cars ; one for the bride and one for the groom, what a great surprise for the bride who knew nothing about it! The groom's car had a huge top hat and white bow-tie, whilst the bride's had big red lips and a tiara. Wow.
The Swiss may sometimes have a reputation for being a rather reserved society, however this literally all goes out the window during a wedding cortège! It is traditional in Switzerland for the wedding party to travel in a cortège from the church to the aperitif location. With hazard lights flashing, horns beeping and the bridal party throwing sweets into the street for any children cheering to them from the pavement, it's quite something to witness. I always feel a great honour to be part of this truly unique event.
