Tonight we welcome you all to the village!
The doors to the village will be open and from 7pm - 11pm we will be having welcome drinks. Hopefully, this will give a chance for everybody to meet, reconnect or simply catch up whilst soaking up the beautiful sunset.
There will be local wines, beers and fizz all free flowing throughout the evening and weekend but if you would rather something stronger, feel free to bring a bottle and drop it off in the Spirit drop. Glasses, ice and mixes will all be provided - But not sparklers* - this isn't Mahiki!
*Sparklers may be provided.
We will also be serving food during the evening so don't worry about a thing. The plan for the weekend is to allow you to sample everything French so for tonight, we have arranged a traditional crepe station which will serve both savoury and sweet crepes.
I guess all that's left to say is just bring yourselves and let us take care of the party!
I Do I Do I Doo hoo
And so to the big day, where we declare our undying love.
In the morning we have arranged breakfast to be served in the centre of the village between 08:00 - 11:00. This will include Tea, Coffee, Pastries, Hams, Jams and Cheeses. There will be seating set up so can continue the mingling with your new found friends or alternatively you can take your food and drink back to the cottages.
Before the wedding, please feel free to relax and explore as you wish. The venues facilities are free to use and there is a Tennis court available on request and the swimming pool for those who want a lazy morning. There are also various local towns which you may wish to explore - we have provided further details on these under 'The Region' section on this site.
The ceremony will begin at 16:00.
Please aim to take your seats and your bubbles by 15:45.
Leanne will no doubt be late, just to keep everyone sweating (hopefully, not literally) but we hear thats normal.
After the ceremony we will be serving canapés during cocktails followed by taking your seats for the wedding breakfast at 20:00.
By 22:00 we plan to have you all up on your feet throwing shapes only stopping briefly for Croque Monsieurs at 01:00 and then partying on until you drop!
OK so maybe not the budgie smugglers but make sure you've got swimwear.. Today is all about doing what you want. Whether that chilling out around the pool, getting over last nights hangover, playing games and remembering / regretting last nights dance moves its totally uptown you!
As we expect a large amount of you will be suffering today, breakfast will be delivered to your door. Simply wake up and find a basket of french goodies ready to devour at the door of your cottage.
We'll have a slower start to the day with the music playing from 13:00. We're planning on having a BBQ at 14:00 for anyone who wishes to join in and for anyone brave enough / fresh enough - the drinks will still be flowing.
In the evening we are going to keep it simple with baguette style sandwiches for anyone who needs further food.
Its been a blast!
This morning you'll again wake up to breakfast on the doorstep.
Unfortunately we have to leave the village today and say goodbye to all our friends and family.
Check out is at 11am but don't worry if you've got a late flight as you are welcome to enjoy the facilities until you need to leave.
Hopefully you've all enjoyed your time in the village and will be inspired to revisit this part of France in the near future. We truly believe its a hidden gem!
