The Ceremony of Non-Marriage Proposals
“I have the honor of not asking for your hand” Georges Brassens
At the Fête des Vendanges, love is celebrated with humor and lightness during the traditional ceremony of the non-married.
Under the benevolent authority of Éric Lejoindre, mayor of the 18th arrondissement, the day’s non-married couples take turns participating in a ceremony as whimsical as it is romantic.
In a delightfully kitsch setting, couples come to exchange ephemeral promises and not put a ring on it.
And because such an event deserves a beauty treatment to match, the « Mystérieuses Coiffures » create astonishing hair designs for the fiancés for eternity, transforming this imaginary wedding into a true spectacle and each participant into an ephemeral work of art.
