An Intimate Vow Renewal in Nice, French Riviera

A Wedding Anniversary in Nice, France — Kim & Jimmy

Kim and Jimmy met at work when they were 18, got engaged four months later, and married on 22nd July 1995 in Bedfordshire — 120 guests, reception in their back garden, neighbours invited down the street. Thirty years on, they chose Nice for their vow renewal: a city with the sea, the light, and the warmth that a milestone like this deserves. For couples looking for an intimate micro wedding in Nice, French Riviera, or simply a meaningful way to celebrate a wedding anniversary in Nice, France, this is what it can look like.

A Vow Renewal at La Colline du Château, Nice

On 22nd July 2025 — exactly thirty years to the day after their wedding at Dunstable Registry Office — Kim and Jimmy renewed their vows at La Colline du Château, on a sun-drenched terrace overlooking the Bay of Angels. Their daughters and a few close friends stood with them as they read their vows to each other for the second time, thirty years of shared life distilled into a few minutes of pure presence. No big venue, no elaborate production — just the people who matter most, the July light over the Mediterranean, and a couple who have been saying “Together Forever” since they were eighteen. Their motto, as it turns out, was never just a saying.

A Couple Shoot in Nice, Along the French Riviera

After the ceremony at La Colline du Château, Kim and Jimmy wandered through the gardens and terraces of Nice for their couple shoot — past stone balustrades, painted walls, and pine trees with the sea glinting below. The colour portraits capture the joy of the moment: the laughter, the hugs with their daughters, two people completely at ease with each other after thirty years. The black and white frames, shot down by the waterfront, tell a quieter story — just the two of them, the rocks, and the Bay of Angels stretching out behind them. Thirty years in, and they still walk hand in hand.
