Your wedding at the Clos du Tuilier

From $55,000, all-inclusive, for about 100 guests, from November to March: the venue, the table, the flowers, the music, your photos, and us on site. From April to October, the price follows the hamlet's season. Your exact price depends on your date and guest count, in writing within a week.

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

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.

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.

You can, it's a lovely house. The Clos du Tuilier rents you the whole hamlet, for two to five days, and gives you its list of caterers. You then bring together the caterer, the drinks, the furniture, the flowers, the decor, the music, the photographer and the running of the day, each under its own contract. With us, all of that is in your price, every choice stays yours, and the hamlet keeps its own rate. You come to get married.

Up to 200 at table in the open air, and from 20 for a wedding among your tribe. The stone sheepfold seats 120 and holds 150 standing: the dance floor, and dinner in winter. Some fifty of your people sleep at the hamlet, the others in partner gîtes a few minutes away.

The hamlet hosts weddings all year round, and summer Saturdays go first. Tell us your date, we check with the Clos du Tuilier and reply in writing.

Yes, on the big plateau facing the hills, or in front of the lavender field. If the weather turns, the stone sheepfold takes the ceremony. Your words, your officiant, your people around you. For a church wedding, a neighbouring village church welcomes you, and everyone comes back up to the hamlet for drinks.

In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the hamlet. Oppedette 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 hamlet.

Yes: Marseille airport and the Avignon TGV and Aix-en-Provence TGV stations are about 1 h 30 away, Apt 30 minutes. Once they arrive, everyone stays at the hamlet or a few minutes from it for the whole weekend.

Those sleeping at the hamlet are a few steps from their room. For the others, in partner gîtes a few minutes away, we give you the addresses, ready to share with your loved ones.

Dinner moves into the stone sheepfold, up to 120 at table, and the dancing stays there. For a bigger wedding, a tent goes up in the garden. On sunny days, shade sails cover the tables, and the sheepfold shelters you from the wind too.

As late as you like: the hamlet sets no closing time, and the dancing carries on in the stone sheepfold until the early hours. Those sleeping at the hamlet only have the courtyard to cross to get to bed.

At the hamlet. One of you in the main house, the other in one of the gîtes, each with their own people, and the plateau of the ceremony a short walk away.

They feel at home here: the pool is fenced, baby cots are provided, and the ping-pong table and the pétanque ground keep them busy during the drinks. Their parents sleep a few steps from the party.

From late June to late August, says the hamlet, at its fullest in July. The field touches the main house, just below the spot where you say yes: in those weeks, it frames your vows. The rest of the year, its green rows still draw the landscape around the ceremony.

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