Imagine a golden sunset over lavender hills, an old stone mansion hidden among cypress trees, and an elegant party under warm garland lights.
This is what a wedding in Provence looks like — where French elegance meets rustic charm and the feeling of eternity.
For couples who dream of a wedding straight out of the movies, Provence offers not just a location, but a complete experience: landscapes, gastronomy, tradition, and that je ne sais quoi that transforms an event into a story.

Tips & Tricks for a Wedding in France
1. Plan at least one year in advance.
Provence is one of the most desired regions for international weddings. Locations are booked quickly, especially between May and September.
2. Collaborate with a local wedding planner.
The French have a special sense of detail. A local planner will help you manage suppliers, logistics, and documents for the ceremony.
3. Include authentic experiences.
A wine tour for guests, an outdoor dinner with Provençal dishes (ratatouille, local cheeses, fruit tarts), or a corner with perfumes and lavender as personalized souvenirs.
4. Choose the right time for the ceremony.
The light in Provence is magical at sunset. The most spectacular photos are taken between 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM, when everything takes on a golden hue.
5. Invitations and decor – keep the natural theme.
Use color palettes inspired by the landscape: lavender, beige, olive green, and gold accents. The minimalist decor, with local flowers, perfectly matches the relaxed and refined atmosphere.
A Wedding that Feels like a Vacation
A wedding in Provence is not just a day of celebration, but an escape.
It is a weekend of experiences: outdoor dinners, wine tastings, walks through medieval villages, and dancing evenings under the open sky.
In France, time flows differently — slower, more beautiful, more meaningful.
And a wedding here is not just a romantic choice, but a statement of style.
