Why choose Provence for your elopement?

I would say that this is the best place to get married and make the intimate wedding you want … but not only! 

Breathtaking Scenery

Provence is renowned for its breathtaking scenery, featuring rolling lavender fields, olive groves, and vineyards that stretch as far as the eye can see. The region’s diverse landscapes, from the rugged cliffs of the Calanques to the serene shores of the Mediterranean, offer endless possibilities for stunning wedding photos and memorable moments.

Intimacy and Privacy

An elopement in Provence allows our couples to escape the stress and pressure of a traditional wedding. The intimate setting ensures a deeply personal and heartfelt experience, free from the distractions of a large guest list. You can focus solely on each other, creating cherished memories in a tranquil and romantic environment.

Rich Cultural Heritage

Provence is steeped in history and culture, offering a wealth of charming venues for an elopement. From ancient Roman ruins to medieval castles and quaint chapels, you can choose a location that resonates with your personal story. The region’s vibrant markets, delicious cuisine, and world-class wines add a touch of local flavor to the celebration, making the experience truly unique.

Mild Climate

The mild Mediterranean climate of Provence ensures pleasant weather for an outdoor ceremony almost year-round. With over 300 days of sunshine annually, you can plan your elopement with confidence, knowing you are likely to enjoy clear skies and comfortable temperatures.

Food and wine

We know our couples, and you’re often epicures. Our team will know how to satisfy you, from unusual addresses to fine dining.
