Mark & Clémentine Ward
We are a husband and wife team. Photography, film, planning, decorations and more. We are here to help you create and capture one of the biggest days of your life! We've got nearly 15 years planning, photographing and filming weddings. Still, every wedding and every couple is unique to us!
Multicultural and multilingual, we have travelled extensively and worked with couples from around the world. No job is too big or too small and we're tireless in our efforts to achieve the highest standards. Take us as a team or separately!
Find out more about Clémentine in the Planning section, and more about Mark on the Photography and Film sections.
We are an award winning husband and wife team. Clémentine is the organiser, she plans weddings for foreign couples wanting to get married in France, and she also manages all the Awardweddings bookings. Mark is the artist, he photographs and films weddings.
We always adapt to what each couple want to create unique memories that truly reflect their personalities.
A bit more about us...
Together, we gather five nationalities: Mark is half English-half Japanese and Clémentine is a quarter French, a quarter Turkish and half German. We've lived in London, Paris, Melbourne, Tokyo and now Toulouse; and we've been lucky to travel extensively around the world. So we can bring cosmopolitan inspiration with a very open-minded team approach! You will see in our testimonies that we are characterised by our professionalism and kindness.
We've been together for nearly 20 years and have really enjoyed working together for seven. We actually got married in the South of France when we were living in London and always thought we'd love to live in the area one day. We also had a party in London and a renewal of vows in Vegas - we believe in going for everything and really celebrate our love! Four years later, we moved from our flat in Greenwich to an old farmhouse on top of a hill south of Toulouse. We have been renovating our place to make a beautiful home for our family.
Before setting up Awardweddings, Mark worked up to Head of Faculty teaching English, Media, Film and Creative Media. As well as his talent and knowledge of photography, Mark is a real people person and can definitely get everyone comfortable with the camera!
Clémentine worked in worldwide companies such as Barclays and Médecins du Monde where she managed international communications strategies and events. She learnt with the best people in extremely pressurised environments and can now apply that to a field that is much closer to her heart.
"We were really lucky to benefit from Mark's incredible work for our wedding photos, and Clémentine's planning. The quality of their work is outstanding and they are both so kind. I heartily recommend Mark & Clémentine for your wedding."
