In this solo episode of The Paris Wedding Show, I dive into one of the most common questions couples ask me: “How long should our wedding ceremony in Paris be?”

Spoiler alert—this isn’t a question of minutes. It’s a question of meaning. I break down why the ceremony isn’t just a box to tick, but the emotional centerpiece of your entire wedding day. Whether you’re planning an elopement or a full-scale destination wedding, the timing of your ceremony can either elevate the experience—or flatten it completely.

I walk you through:

The ideal ceremony length (and why under 10 minutes usually means you’ve missed the point)

What adds time and value vs. what’s just filler

How to balance emotional depth with logistical reality

The real reason a 20-minute ceremony can feel like five—or forever

This is a no-fluff, honest take on how to respect the moment without overdoing it. If you want a ceremony that leaves people breathless instead of checking their watches, this episode is for you.
