For couples who want their micro wedding to feel nothing like a wedding, Hôtel Amour is the answer. Tucked into a quiet street between Saint-Georges and Pigalle, this cult address was built on the idea that a great space should feel like it belongs to the people inside it. The restaurant, with its leather banquettes and low lighting, flows out into a lush exotic garden veranda that is equal parts intimate and electric. It is the kind of room where the atmosphere arrives on its own.

​

Conceived by artist André Saraiva and Thierry Costes, the hotel has been drawing Paris's creative and fashion world for over twenty years without ever feeling like it is trying. Private events here are tailored entirely to the couple: the food is sharp, the service attentive without being stiff, and the artist-designed rooms mean the wedding night is as thoughtfully considered as everything that came before it. Hôtel Amour does not do conventional and neither, we suspect, do you.
