ONE CHÂTEAU. ENDLESS WAYS TO CELEBRATE.

From the moment you arrive to the final farewell, every part of your celebration unfolds naturally through three beautiful chapters:

The Welcome · The Wedding Day · The Farewell Brunch

DAY ONE — THE WELCOME

Your wedding experience begins the moment you arrive.

Settle into your rooms, explore the château and its beautiful grounds, and enjoy a relaxed and intimate Welcome Dinnerwith your closest family and friends.

A wonderful opportunity for everyone to reconnect, share precious moments, and enjoy the anticipation of the celebration ahead.

DAY TWO — YOUR WEDDING DAY

Your once-in-a-lifetime moment. A day that is entirely yours.

The day begins with wedding preparations in the château's private rooms — getting dressed, hair and makeup, and those unforgettable moments shared with your loved ones.

Then comes your ceremony, followed by a cocktail reception, an elegant wedding dinner, an evening of celebration, and a peaceful night at the château.

This is where the magic of the estate truly comes to life: with its variety of enchanting spaces, every moment of your wedding day can unfold in a different setting, creating a beautiful and unforgettable experience.

DAY THREE — THE MORNING AFTER

A gentle awakening at the château...

Wake up at your own pace, enjoy a leisurely brunch, and savor a few final moments surrounded by the people who matter most before saying goodbye.

Rather than ending abruptly after the wedding night, your celebration comes to a beautiful, unhurried close.

Because some of life's most precious moments deserve to last a little longer...
