CIVIL & INTIMATE WEDDINGS

A small wedding. Big memories.

For civil ceremonies and celebrations with just a few guests. Focused on the ceremony and the hour after: the signing, the congratulations, a few quiet portraits of the two of you.

No big production, no rigid schedule.

Consultation and planning

Beforehand we clarify where you’ll stand, where the light comes from and when we’ll step outside. Twenty minutes on the phone is often enough.

Frequently asked questions

Photography in the ceremony room – and is short coverage worth it?

In most Swiss registry offices, photos may be taken without flash from a fixed position. The rules vary by municipality; I check this in advance. Even a short ceremony is worth it: INTIMO includes congratulations and a short couple shoot – often the only professional photos of the two of you from that day.

What’s the difference between the packages?

Mainly the length: INTIMO covers 1.5 hours, CEREMONIA 2.5 hours and RÉCIT 4 hours. Depending on the package, the drinks reception, group photos and more atmosphere are added.

And if it rains?

Bad weather often makes for special photos. I plan alternatives for the couple portraits and keep places in mind in case we need to move. We’ll discuss what’s possible at your venue in the consultation.

Do you take family photos too?

Yes. CEREMONIA and RÉCIT include couple and group photos. With INTIMO the focus is on the ceremony, congratulations and a short couple shoot. We’ll agree on the groups that matter to you in the consultation.

What if the schedule runs late?

Coverage is booked in consecutive hours; your agreed schedule is what counts. If you need more time, each additional hour costs CHF 290 – it can be added on the day, as long as we’re still together.

How do we pay – and when do the photos arrive?

50 % deposit on booking, 50 % on delivery of the finished gallery, by bank transfer or TWINT. You’ll receive a first selection of 5 to 10 images within 48 hours, the complete gallery usually after 4 to 6 weeks.

We’ll have a big celebration later. Will the package be credited?

Yes. If you book your full wedding coverage within 18 months, I’ll credit the full amount of your civil ceremony package.
