Why we love Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines

A wooden pontoon on a lake, the Durance valley below and, from the estate, the citadel of Sisteron across the way. The mas and its 5 hectares all yours, about fifty of your people sleeping on site. And at dinner, the orangery opens its glass roof to the sky: your guests will be telling everyone about it back home.

  • 200

    guests at the table, under the orangery

    the dance floor right beside it

  • 5 hectares, all yours

    the whole estate privately hired, from Friday to Sunday

  • The infinity pool of Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines under the plane trees, its loungers and tiled pergola, a mountain ridge behind

    A swimming pool

    and its pool house bar, for drinks, then the next-day brunch

  • The party

    • Ceremony by the water

      on the lake's pontoon, or on the terrace under the plane trees

    • No closing time

      the dance floor is in the orangery, the party lasts as long as you dance

    • Rain plan

      the orangery closes its glass roof, and dinner stays dry

  • Practical

    • 50 beds at the mas

      in rooms, suites and houses, billed directly by the estate

      invoiced directly by the venue, and we send you the links to book

    • Sisteron, close by

      for the guests who do not sleep at the mas

    • About 1 h from the airport

      Marseille Provence, and the Aix-en-Provence TGV station

  • The open wrought-iron gate between two stone pillars at Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines, a gravel avenue lined with cypresses and lavender beyond
    Arriving down the cypress avenue
  • Aerial view of the lake at Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines: chairs in two curved rows facing the wooden pontoon, a fountain jet and a small boat on the water
    Your vows on the pontoon, over the water
  • Rattan armchairs and sofas beside the green-tiled pool of Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines, the pergola and the mountains in the distance
    Drinks at the pool house bar
  • Round tables set in white under the orangery of Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines, its glass roof open to the sky, an olive tree and the stone fountain in the middle
    Dinner under the orangery, roof open
  • The orangery of Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines at night, its roof open to the dark sky, crystal chandeliers lit above the guests at their tables
    The chandeliers light up, the dancing starts
  • A large heart sculpted in driftwood standing at the end of a path between rows of lavender, in the park of Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines
    Down the lavender path: a driftwood heart

The area

The mas looks down on the Durance valley, just above Sisteron, whose citadel, a listed historic monument, has watched over the town for eight centuries. Sisteron's Provençal market is on Wednesday and Saturday mornings, on Place de l'Horloge. For early arrivals: the Valensole lavender (mid-June to mid-July), or the Verdon gorges and Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, 1 h 15 away.

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 Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines cost?

From $58,000, all-inclusive, for about 100 guests, from November to March: the venue, the table, the flowers, the music, your photos, and us on site. A summer Saturday costs more. Your exact price depends on your date and guest count, and you have it 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 mas directly?

You can, it's a lovely house. The mas rents you its estate and its beds, with the furniture, the sound and the lights. You then bring together the caterer, the drinks, the flowers, the decor, the DJ and the photographer. With us, all of that is in your price, except the rooms, which the mas bills directly. Every choice stays yours, and the mas keeps its own rate. You come to get married.

How many guests can we invite?

Up to 200 at the table under the orangery. About fifty of them sleep at the mas; the others stay in Sisteron, close by. From an intimate 50, all on site, to the big party, the mas adapts.

Which dates are still free?

The mas hosts weddings all year round, over a weekend or over several days midweek. Tell us your date, we check with Le Mas des Cinq Fontaines and reply in writing.

Can we have a secular ceremony on site?

Yes, and the lake is the place for it: you on the wooden pontoon, your guests on the shore, the Durance valley behind you. In high summer, the terrace under the plane trees stays cool, and if it rains, a fallback room is ready.

Can we have our civil wedding in Sisteron?

In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the mas. Sisteron 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 mas.

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

Yes: Marseille Provence airport and Aix-en-Provence TGV station are about an hour away, and the Sisteron motorway exit is 5 minutes from the mas. About fifty of your guests sleep on site, and the others stay in Sisteron, close by.

How do our guests get back after the party?

About fifty of them just walk to their room. The others stay in Sisteron, close by, so they can toast without going far.

Will our grandparents and the little ones be comfortable?

Yes. The venue is accessible to guests with reduced mobility, children have their own room and outdoor games, and pets are welcome. The path down to the lake from the courtyard is gravel, on a slope: we tell your guests about shoes, and keep the front row for the grandparents.

Where do we get ready?

At the mas. The bridal suite is kept for the two of you, with its own private spa, and the estate has about twenty double rooms and suites, so each of you can get ready in your own corner, your people close by. The lake is reached on foot from the courtyard.

When is the lavender in bloom?

From June on the estate, around the driftwood heart where couples take their photos, until early autumn for the pictures. On the Valensole plateau, the fields are in bloom from mid-June to mid-July, before the harvest.

And in the summer heat?

June and September are the gentlest months. In July and August, the ceremony at the lake moves to late afternoon, drinks go under the plane trees of the terrace, and the orangery opens its roof for the evening air.

Coming from abroad: how does it work?

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

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. At the mas, the caterer is yours to choose, and the estate offers a selection of professionals it knows well.
