If you’re planning a trip to Paris, and are tossing around the idea of an impromptu wedding or vow-renewal ceremony while you’re here- I’ve got a great resource for you: Graine de Coton is a sweet little boutique in the 15th arrondissement where you can buy or rent a wedding dress at a fraction of its’ retail price. The shop also rents gently-owned bridesmaids, flower girl and ring bearer outfits and accessories. And for the last-minute “Bride’s best friend”, witness or guest: the shop carries a nice selection of evening and party dresses, too. Keep in mind that besides being affordable and practical, a pre-owned wedding dress is a great eco-friendly option for a Green Wedding in Paris.

18 Rue de l’Abbé Groult,
75015 Paris, Paris, Ile-de-France
Is it possible to get an english translation voiceover of the Graine de Coton video? Thanks!
Hmmm…I have no idea, Jenna- It looks like a video that the boutique had produced for a promotion, so your best bet would probably to have someone on your end translate it- It wouldn’t hurt to contact the boutique, though. Good luck!
Hi Sir/madam,
I am planning my trip to Paris between 1st to 4th Feb 2010.
And also thinking to take a pre-wedding photo here.
Just want to ask can i make a booking for dress trial, fitting and dress tailoring in a day? How many hours can fix it? Also, can i have a look on the wedding dress photo on website first? How’s the price range?
Thanks,
I am a professional wedding photographer in São Paulo Brazil. I am planning a photoshot in Paris in late January, early February. This will be a personal portfolio to begin with, but with the right elements (location/model/dress/photos) we might get it published in a Brazilian Magazine.
I am looking for a wedding dress for this photoshoot. Do you rent for this purpose ?
thanks much
Marco Costa
