On the threshold of …

… becoming husband and wife.
Île St. Louis, Paris
… stepping into a Willy Wonka world.
We found this shop while wandering the beautiful streets of Île St. Louis. The storefront of La Cure Gourmande beckons visitors to sample a cornucopia of sweet delights – biscuits, lollipops, toffees, chocolates, caramels, and more. So, what decision do you think this couple made: did they go in or didn’t they?
Posted as part of the Weekly Photo Challenge: Threshold.

Such a beautiful wedding photo. I love how he’s holding on to a bit of the dress. Really liked it in B&W too.

Such great photos Stacy! Beautiful moments, you’ve captured and composed them so well! My favorite is the young couple and I love it that they are not posing but it’s just sort of a spontaneous capture, really lovely mood in the photo!

The couple is my favorite as well, Elina, for exactly the reason that it was just a captured moment. The bride’s gown was gorgeous, and with the background of Paris, I just had to take it!

Stefano, thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment on my humble blog. I shot this photo over 3 years ago, and the composition was a result of my attempt to respect the couple’s privacy (I was an onlooker). The threshold challenge just cried out for this one, and I figured after all this time it would be all right if I used it. So flattered you liked it!

I especially like the young couple considering their chocolate purchase. I think they couldn’t resist a little indulgence.
