Saturday, 14 September
The order of the day
All at Maison de Fleurs, with time in between to wander the gardens. Loose, unhurried, and a little bit golden.
3:00 PM
Ceremony
Vows under the old olive tree in the walled garden. Arrive by 2:45 — seats find you.
4:00 PM
Aperitifs & photos
Sparkling rosé on the terrace, canapés, and far too many group photographs.
6:00 PM
Dinner
A long table under the lights, a Provençal feast, and a toast or two (or five).
9:00 PM
Dancing
The first dance, then the floor is yours until the last song at midnight.
The practical things
Venue & travel
Everything you need to plan your trip. If anything is unclear, just ask — we’re only a message away.
The venue
Maison de Fleurs, a restored 18th-century farmhouse and walled garden just outside Aix-en-Provence. Ceremony in the garden, dinner in the orangery.
Getting there
Marseille airport is 40 minutes away; the TGV stops at Aix. Free parking is on site, and we’ll run a shuttle from the town square at 2:15 and back at midnight.
Where to stay
We’ve held a block of rooms at Le Pigonnet in town and listed a few smaller guesthouses nearby for every budget. Book by July to be sure of a room.
With love, not obligation
Ways to celebrate with us
Your presence is the only thing on our list. But if you’d like to mark the day with a gift, here are a few things that would mean a great deal to us.
The gift registry
A small, hand-picked list of things for our first proper home together — from the practical to the sentimental.
Honeymoon fund
We’re saving for a slow trip down the Italian coast. A contribution towards a meal, a train or a sunset would be a treasured part of it.
A gift to others
In lieu of a gift, a donation to a wildflower-meadow charity close to our hearts plants a little more colour in the world.
Good to know
Questions, answered
Can’t find what you’re after? Send us a note and we’ll get back to you quickly.
What should I wear?
Garden formal — think soft suits and floaty dresses in any colour you love. The ceremony is on grass, so kitten heels or flats will thank you. Bring a layer for when the evening cools.
Can I bring a plus-one?
Your invitation will name everyone we’ve saved a seat for. If you’re unsure whether a guest is included, just ask — we’d rather you check than wonder.
Are children welcome?
We love your little ones, but we’ve planned a grown-ups’ evening so everyone can relax. A trusted sitter is available on site — let us know on your RSVP and we’ll share the details.
I have a dietary requirement — what do I do?
There’s a field on the RSVP form for exactly this. Tell us about allergies, vegetarian or vegan preferences and anything else, and our caterers will take wonderful care of you.
What time should I arrive, and when will it end?
Please be seated by 2:45 PM for a 3:00 PM start. The party runs until midnight, with the shuttle back to town leaving on the hour from 10 PM.
We can’t wait to celebrate with you
Will you be there? Let us know.
Kindly respond by the 1st of August so we can save your seat at the table.
