La Savonnette Coquette: poetry and emotions in Belgium
In a wedding, it is always the details that create true luxury.
A fragrance that lingers delicately in the air. A flame that dances, casting an intimate glow. A handmade soap, surprising in both texture and scent.
In Villers-la-Ville, at the heart of Walloon Brabant, Johanna — the creator behind La Savonnette Coquette — has turned craftsmanship into her signature. Her cold-processed soaps, elegant or playful candles, and unique creations are not mere objects. They are fragments of poetry, invitations to emotion, sensory memories imprinted on the heart.
As a wedding photographer in Belgium, I know how much these details matter. They do more than decorate a day — they shape an atmosphere and create an invisible memory woven into every emotion.
The story of a passionate creator
Every artisan has a story. Johanna’s is one of dedication and passion. With La Savonnette Coquette, she set out to craft more than products: she built a sensory universe.
Her inspiration comes from nature, the seasons, and everyday emotions. She shapes her soaps and candles as a sculptor shapes marble or a composer writes a melody. Each creation carries respect: for the skin, for the environment, and for human emotion.
Her method is marked by patience and precision. Each soap is carefully cold-processed to preserve its properties. Each candle is hand-poured, delicately scented, designed to diffuse fragrances that leave lasting imprints in memory.
Craftsmanship as a promise of authenticity
In today’s world of mass production, choosing a local artisan in Belgium is a bold act. It affirms that true luxury lies in authenticity.
Opting for a handmade soap or candle means:
supporting authentic craftsmanship,
reducing your ecological footprint,
offering your guests a unique keepsake with a soul.
These attentions are not simple gifts. They are a way of saying: you matter to us. They become sensory witnesses of a timeless celebration.
Signature soaps: elegance in the palm of your hand
The artisanal soaps of La Savonnette Coquette are her signature. Made using traditional cold-process methods, they combine gentleness, refinement, and authenticity.
White musk, enveloping and pure, evokes tenderness and intimacy.
Flax flower, delicate and soothing, recalls the freshness of luminous mornings.
Sandalwood, deep and elegant, adds a woody, almost spiritual touch.
Each soap is more than skincare: it is a small work of art. When used after the wedding, its fragrance instantly recalls the smiles, the joy, the emotion of the day.
Artisan candles: the poetry of a flame
The candles of La Savonnette Coquette hold a special place in her world. They are not just decorative: they tell a story.
Some diffuse elegant fragrances, casting intimate light. Others are whimsical trompe-l’œil creations, shaped like cupcakes or nostalgic pastries. They surprise, delight, and enchant.
At a wedding, a candle is never just a candle. Its flame symbolizes the love that unites. Its scent becomes an invisible imprint, a fragrant memory that lingers for years.
When the senses become legacy
A wedding is not only captured in images.
It is lived through the five senses.
Sight: a look, a smile, a spark.
Hearing: music, laughter, a silence heavy with emotion.
Taste: the flavors of a shared meal.
Touch: the warmth of a hand, the softness of fabric.
Smell: a fragrance, a candle, a soap.
This sensory dimension transforms a celebration into an unforgettable experience. And this is exactly what Johanna’s creations bring: objects that awaken, recall, and preserve emotion.
Villers-la-Ville: a home for Belgian craftsmanship
Based in Villers-la-Ville, La Savonnette Coquette embodies the spirit of Belgian craftsmanship. Each creation is born from a desire to add meaning, beauty, and poetry to everyday life.
By including her soaps or candles in your wedding, you connect your story to a tradition of authenticity that transcends borders. Though Belgian in origin, their emotional power is universal.
When craftsmanship meets photography
There is a natural resonance between craftsmanship and photography. Johanna works with textures, matter, and fragrance. I work with light, glances, and emotions.
We share the same raw material: emotion.
She translates it into scents and forms. I capture it in timeless images.
Together, our worlds complement each other, offering couples an experience that is both visual and sensory.
Why choose artisanal touches for your wedding?
A luxury wedding is not defined by opulence, but by the rightness of choices.
By choosing an artisan:
you honor authentic craftsmanship,
you give meaning to your gifts,
you offer your guests a lasting emotion.
This is what transforms a wedding from a celebration into a legacy of feelings.
Creating memories that never fade
A wedding is not only preserved in photographs.
It is lived with the senses. It imprints itself in the heart.
With her signature soaps, her artisanal candles, and her airy body whip, La Savonnette Coquette brings a unique, refined, and unforgettable sensory dimension to every celebration.
And what if your guests left with more than an object?
What if they carried away an emotion, a fragrance that — years later — would still bring them back to the beauty of your day?
As a wedding photographer in Belgium, I deeply believe that it is these choices that make the difference. Choices guided by authenticity and craftsmanship.
