Happy Monday! Today I’m sharing the third set of our engagement photos. We shot these right outside of The Peninsula Paris before we grabbed brunch. The Peninsula was amazing. I actually made reservations during lunch time for the Sunday we were in Paris. I didn’t realize that they only serve brunch on Sundays. Initially, I wanted us to eat at L’Oiseau Blanc but as expected, the restaurant was booked months ahead of time. I mean look at that view. If you are ever visiting Paris, make sure you try and make reservations there as soon as possible. Even if you only have tentative dates if you want to secure a table! I made reservation at the gorgeous Le Lobby instead and even without the view, it was just as beautiful.

The brunch was very good. I love brunch as much as the next person and I’ve had my fair share of amazing brunches but the presentation at Le Lobby on Sunday was insane. For brunch I think I ate every pastry known to man and homemade crepes and sushi and mini gelato cones. Our favorite was the cloud shaped meringue filled with grapefruit and honey. I get sick even thinking about all the food I ate ahaha. They also had a live band playing at the restaurant and their rendition of “American Boy” was so good.

Now I want to return for their afternoon tea next time we’re in Paris!
