Dreaming of saying “I do” amidst lavender fields at a charming Provence Chateau? Look no further than Chateau des Barrenques, a hidden gem near Avignon that’s straight out of a fairy tale.
This 15th-century chateau oozes Provençal charm, with its iconic pale blue shutters, ochre façade, and lush surroundings of fountains, rivers, and sun-soaked parklands. It’s everything you imagine life in Provence to be—serene, sunny, and buzzing with cicadas.
On your wedding day, you’ll have a variety of stunning spots to choose from. Picture this: the ceremony could take place in the Natural Cathedral, formed by ancient sycamore trees, or in a tranquil clearing in the park. You could also opt for La Lucarne, offering breathtaking views of the famous Mont Ventoux.
Afterwards, treat your guests to champagne and canapés on the chateau terrace, shaded by towering cypress and magnolia trees. For dinner? How about dining under the stars, beneath twinkling fairy lights. In case the weather doesn’t cooperate, don’t stress! The Chateau offers incredible “Plan B” options, like a majestic 225m² nomad tent or the spacious 160m² former silkworm farm.
And the fun doesn’t stop after the wedding! The day after, relax with a laid-back brunch and pool party. With hammocks, ping-pong, and a pétanque court, this Provence Chateau has everything you need for a perfect post-wedding chill day.
This gorgeous estate sleeps up to 42 guests across two fully-equipped suites, eight en-suite rooms in the chateau, and two cottages (one with its own pool!).
Oh, and did we mention the friendly manager Clémence and her team? They are very welcoming and ready to connect you with the best vendors and wedding planners to make your big day run smoothly.
