They got engaged in November 2024 during a vacation to the Seychelles. “While relaxing outside on our balcony together, I asked her to grab my notebook from inside our room,” Félix recalls. “What was supposed to be my notebook was actually a letter from me to her. A letter that dated back to May 5, 2019, written a month and a half after our very first meeting. It was a letter that I had kept through all of the years to one day show her just how confident I was that we’d still be together years later.”
As she came back onto the balcony, Félix was waiting with a ring. “It was a beautiful and intimate moment that we had looked forward to for years, and I couldn’t have dreamt of it being more magical than it was,” he says. “The rest of our evening felt like it was out of a movie as we went straight to a sunset picnic at the top of the island.” As day turned to night, they moved to the beach for a barbecue and called their family and friends to share their happy news.
The wedding took place on September 20, 2025, at the Selman Marrakech hotel. The planning was a collaborative process that occurred over several trips to Morocco over a 10-month period. “Group phone calls with our family were consistent since the moment we got engaged as everyone was so enthusiastic about making this moment what it deserved to be,” Félix remembers. “Whether it was searching deep through the busy streets of Jemaa el-Fnaa to find unique gifts for all our guests, flying between Paris and New York for suit and dress fittings, or touring all of the most breathtaking hotels and villas in Marrakech to find the perfect location, the priority was always one thing: embracing our love for each other, having the time of our lives and making sure our friends and family felt the immense gratitude we have for their unbreakable support and effort to be there.”
A walkway and floral arch were erected on top of the pool for the ceremony, and flowers cascaded from above when Félix and Nina met at the end of the aisle. “There was beauty in every direction you looked whether it was at the Moroccan greenery, the intimate crowd of 120 people dressed in colourful attire looking on proudly, or at the love that was pouring down the stage under the flower filled arch,” Félix says. “The ceremony was private, warm, emotional, and everything we could have ever wanted.”
When Félix started thinking about what he would wear for this major life event, the first name that came to mind was Dior. “The simple elegance and precision of their work is something I’ve admired for a long time,” Félix says. “They put me at ease throughout the whole process, and the end result was more than perfect.”
