Some places instantly feel warm and inviting, as if they were always meant to host cherished moments. Saint Victor La Grand’ Maison is one of them. More than just a chateau venue, it is a true “maison”—a place where life unfolds beautifully, where laughter lingers in the air, and where weddings are celebrated with heart. This well kept secret, a hamlet of six properties, is an ideal setting for a destination wedding in France.
A Hidden Gem in the Heart of the Countryside
Nestled between Berry and Poitou, just 2hrs from Paris, this 16th-century property sits atop a thirty-acre estate overlooking the tranquil banks of the Anglin River. A picturesque bridle path lined with centuries-old trees leads to this enchanting retreat, where rolling fields and lush woodlands create the most romantic backdrop.
A French Wedding Experience Like No Other
Start your day in style with a Champagne breakfast surrounded by your closest friends, embracing the excitement of your special day.
For your ceremony, exchange vows beneath a 400-year-old oak tree by the river, in the shade of a stately lime tree in the forest, or within the Gothic church in Merigny, just four kilometers away. The Saint-Savin Abbey, a UNESCO World Heritage site nine kilometers away, offers another breathtaking alternative.
Host an unforgettable wedding dinner in La Grand’ étable that boasts high ceilings, white beams, and delicate drapery for a dazzling look. Afterward, dance the night away in Le Pailler, a chic space with contemporary lines.
The Perfect French Wedding Weekend
After the big day, keep the festivities going with a poolside brunch and a relaxed gathering with loved ones. The estate accommodates up to 28 guests in its six independent houses and manor rooms, each exuding understated luxury with antique furnishings, soft fabrics, book-lined walls, and all the modern comfort.
Please note: this venue also offers the possibility to cater as “table d’hôtes” for residents’ meals.
