France ✈ Venue Spotlight

France Venue_073

Whether your dream French wedding is celebrating on your own private boat down the river Seine or in one of the many charmingly picturesque villages in the Languedoc region, we are on a mission to find a venue that is perfect for you. Planning abroad doesn’t often doesn’t afford you the luxury of visiting possible reception locations every other weekend and scouring the internet can get more than frustrating, especially when the websites are of poor quality.  So we have decided that we are going do as much as the looking for you as we can and showcase our favourite finds so that hopefully it will narrow down your search for the all important first planning trip over to your destination. We have become pro’s at looking past the shabby websites and trust us, a homemade website can oftentimes mean a great find and a venue full of character. My own brother had his wedding in France a number of years ago and when I look at the website now, I cannot believe it is the same place.

Castelnau des Fieumarcon

I don’t know where to start with Castlenau des Fieumarcon. This fortified village in Gascony, France is nothing short of spectacular. The entire village offers exclusive rental including the 16 stone houses to accommodate up to 60 guests and with a chapel onsite, you can celebrate your entire wedding there and in splendid isolation.
