Why we love Château Camiac

An estate among the Entre-deux-Mers vines, for the two of you and everyone you love. What your guests talk about on the way home: the château lit up, late into the evening.

The area

Camiac is a tiny village among the Entre-deux-Mers vines. Close by stands the Abbey of La Sauve-Majeure, founded in 1079 and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Créon's market under the arcades on Wednesday morning, the greenway by bike from the Créon cycle station, the wine châteaux to visit around: your first day plans itself.

Who is Fervenza?

Fervenza is a French all-inclusive wedding company. With Émilie and the whole team, we’re already planning the weddings of 2027 and 2028.

  • French company, licensed live-event producer Your contract is governed by French law
  • Covered by professional liability insurance
How much does a wedding at Château Camiac cost?

From $62,000, all-inclusive, for about 100 guests, with the château all yours: the venue, the table, the flowers, the music, your photos, and us on site. With the whole estate and its 42 beds, the price is higher. The exact price depends on your date and your guest count, in writing within a week.

Can the price change?

Once we’ve agreed, no. It only changes if you change the wedding: more or fewer guests, a wish added along the way.

What if one of our suppliers can’t make it?

We replace them. They’re our suppliers, under our contract, so the two of you have nothing to search for or renegotiate. You approve the choice, and we take care of the rest.

Can we insure our wedding?

Yes, if you wish. We can offer optional cancellation insurance dedicated to your wedding, placed with Lloyd’s. It covers canceling or postponing for reasons beyond your control, including if one of you can’t be there, as set out in the policy terms.

What if we booked the château directly?

You can, it's a beautiful house. The château rents you its estate, its gardens, its 10 bedrooms and the furniture for the party. You then bring together the caterer, the music, the decor, the flowers and the photographer. With us, all of that is in your price, every choice stays yours, and the château keeps its own rate. You come to get married.

How many guests can we invite?

Up to 150 under the garden tent, whatever the weather. The terrace above the pond welcomes up to 40 people at once for drinks, with the gardens all around it. For something more intimate, the château's dining room and its veranda.

Which dates are still free?

Tell us your date, we check with the château and reply in writing. The château is closed for a few weeks around the holidays, from late December to mid-January.

Can we have a secular ceremony on site?

Yes: in the park, near the fountain, or on the terrace facing the pond. You write the ceremony that feels like you, and your people gather all around.

Can we have our civil wedding in Camiac-et-Saint-Denis?

In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the château. Camiac-et-Saint-Denis town hall can marry you if one of you, or one of your parents, lives there or has lived there for at least a month. Otherwise, the civil wedding happens in your own town, and the ceremony at the château.

Our guests are flying in. Is it easy for them?

Yes: Bordeaux is 25 minutes away, with its Saint-Jean TGV station and Bordeaux-Mérignac airport on the far side of the city. The château has its own parking. To sleep nearby, we give you the best addresses around the estate, ready to share with your loved ones.

Coming from abroad: how does it work?

Your contract is governed by French law, and also written in English.

How late can the party go?

Until 4 am, according to the château's conditions. We confirm the exact times for your date, in writing, and where the music plays, tent or rooms.

What if it rains?

Rain plan: the garden tent, made to welcome you whatever the weather, and the château's rooms, air-conditioned in summer and heated in winter. Your day keeps its shape, just under cover.

Where do our guests sleep?

In the château's 10 bedrooms, from the bridal room to the family room. Rooms are billed directly by the château, to you or to each of your guests: you decide what you offer. For the whole weekend, the estate and its outbuildings sleep up to 42 in 20 bedrooms. Everyone else finds a hotel in Bordeaux, 25 minutes away.

Where do we get ready?

In the bridal room, 41 m² with a bathtub and a view over the gardens, and in the Royal room. One room for each of you, if you'd like to see each other for the first time at the ceremony.

Will our grandparents be comfortable?

Yes: one bedroom is fitted for reduced mobility, with a walk-in shower and grab bars, and the estate is accessible. The youngest have the family room, with its bunk beds and games.

Can we bring our own vendors?

Yes, and if you already have a vendor in mind, they're welcome. Your photos are included, with our photographers. If you already have yours, we welcome them into the team and adjust your price. The drinks come from the house.
