Get married in one of these 6 sumptuous venues

in the South of France

Saying “I do” while you watch the sun setting in the vineyard or celebrating your marriage in a sumptuous starred house: the blend of love and the South of France lifestyle will have you falling in love all over again. Here are the best places to get married and begin an idyll with the Provence-Alpes Côte d’Azur region!

Le Château de Peyrassol, art & tradition in the Var

Celebrate your love in a lovely country setting, at the Commanderie de Peyrassol in Flassans-sur-Issole. Amidst the vines, the gallery and the sculpture garden, your guests won’t know where to look next. The most incredible place here is the panoramic glass atrium on the roof of the wine cellar with the Massif des Maures on the horizon. For the vin d’honneur, choose “the village square” and its contemporary rooftop in the Commanderie where old mulberry trees provide a beautiful shady area. The ideal venue for a secular, private ceremony where you will exchange your vows with a view of a majestic sculpture and the vineyard. For the evening, the terrace and its glass floor make you feel as if you’re dancing a magical slow for newlyweds on the stars! And lastly, just imagine waking up in one of the typically charming Provencal château’s bedrooms, with, for the first time, a ring on your finger.

The starred hôtel-restaurant La Robéyère in the Hautes-Alpes

In La Robéyère, lovers say “I do” in a natural historic venue with all the charm of a country house nestled on a rock opposite the mountains in Embrun. The 18th-century building has magnificent reception rooms and you can choose either the Salle des Écuries built with old stone and its pretty vaulted ceiling in old stone or the Salle de la Commanderie, which is bigger and whose beams make it so charming. In sunny weather, enjoy a gourmet vin d’honneur made with local products and specialities on the panoramic terrace with its view over the mountains. And to end your day, head for one of the 40 rooms with their “Gustavian-style” furniture, silky bed linen and deep blue notes in the wallpaper. A real must: the view of the peaks of the Hautes-Alpes, to be seen from the alcove in each room.

The luxury Royal Riviera Hotel in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

The magnificence of the 5-star Royal Riviera Hotel will have you dreaming as soon as you arrive on the Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat peninsula. Built in 1904 on the Côte d’Azur, it has all the trappings of a  palace with its Art Déco and neo-hellenic styles. Its landscape gardens were designed by Jean Mus and this so spacious but private terrace in the middle of the aromatic gardens will celebrate your love elegantly. La Table du Royal serves the best seasonal products and the riches of the Mediterranean to delight your guests. With its peaceful, cosy atmosphere, Le Deck is the ideal venue to raise your glass to your love for the vin d’honneur. Out of season, in November or from January to March, Le Jasmin Grill & Lounge next to the swimming pool with a view of the sea and Villa Kérylos, can be privatized for an exceptional lunch or dinner. There are 96 rooms and suites if the party is set to last all night long.

Le Camping International de Giens, a stone’s throw from the sea

Holiday-style, the 4-star Camping International opposite the Iles d’Or in Hyères, welcomes you to a Boho chic wedding venue on this dreamy peninsula. An original setting for a taste of freedom and fantasy with its clear views of the sea from the Rooftop terrace, the Arbre à Bulles terrace or the terraces of Le Solarium restaurant. The Solarium has direct access to the Baie de l’Almanarre for a sea escapade with your better half. The campsite with its restful setting has a shady terrace and an air-conditioned room which is a cool oasis in the summer months. Raise your glass and celebrate your union on the panoramic Rooftop terrace by La Réserve. And then it’s sweet dreams in a spacious appartment with a view over the Mediterranean or in a Créole-type mobile home with a jacuzzi.

Surrounded by lavender in Terre Ugo for your “I love you”

Terre Ugo is a family house on the Puyricard plateau. Terre Ugo is currently the leading venue specialised in organic lavender growing in Aix en Provence and shares exceptional know-how but that’s not all… In this house which is full of character and was built in the 17th century, the newlyweds live the first moments of their union in the open air and surrounded by lavender. During the lavender flowering period from June to August, the 7 hectares of blue waves are great for some marvellous photos for newlyweds with private access to the lavender fields. Two old barns with their beams, renovated as a double reception area, invite young couples and their families and friends to start the festivities. The garden and the lounge area with a nomadic tent are a promise of wanderings and lovely moments. In the big lit-up square courtyard, the meal is served. Then night continues in the superb guesthouse in a blend of charming old style ad contemporary or the gîte just next door.
