The Ceremony
Our civil wedding ceremony took place on May 3, 2024 at the Hangenbieten town hall. We stood before the Mayor of Hangenbieten, the village where Vincent grew up, who married us in a traditional civil ceremony that is required for all marriages in France. The ceremony was held in both French and English, thanks to the Mayor’s wife who is a former English teacher.
The ceremony lasted about 20 minutes. Vincent and I both said “Oui!”
