We’re currently planning to arrive at the Château on either Wednesday or Thursday. While we encourage everyone to enjoy their vacations and personal itineraries beforehand, if you’re considering arriving early as well, please let us know—we’d love to coordinate.

We’re keeping formal events to a minimum to allow for plenty of flexibility, but we are exploring the possibility of a wine tasting and some local excursions in the days leading up to the weekend.

A little wordplay we couldn’t resist. It’s part bonsoir (good evening), part soirée (an elegant gathering), and all charm. In French, bonsoir isn’t just a greeting — it marks the shift into evening, and for us, the start of our wedding weekend.

Before the sun sets over the Château on Friday, we’ll gather at 5:30 p.m. for drinks, food, and good company. Whether coming from previous travels or just arriving to France, we want you to come as you are as we toast to the unmistakable sense of something beautiful just beginning.

Come ready to toast, mingle, and ease into an unforgettable time with Alexia and Justin as we eat, drink, and be merry (almost married) poolside!

Attire: From cocktail and garden chic to elevated comfort, wear what feels right to you. We are so excited to have you with us!

The ceremony will begin at 5 p.m. in the Château’s entrance courtyard.

Afterward, we’ll gather in the rose garden for cocktail hour — a fragrant, sun-dappled pause before dinner. As golden hour settles in, guests will be seated together for a multi-course French service, with sweeping views of the château’s grand landscape as our backdrop.

We’ll then raise a glass of champagne under the stars before dancing the night away at an after-party in the ballroom.

Attire: Black Tie

We have made it to the end of the weekend! With various travel plans, we’ll have breakfast bites and coffee for takeaway available! Take time to relax or hit the road to continue your adventures. Thank you for your endless love!
