Grace-Dieu is the ideal place for a rustic and chic wedding, both prestigious and simple! Modular and functional rooms, 49 beds on site, the site privatized for a weekend!
Spaces and capacities
3 rooms will be made available to you for your wedding. Depending on your wishes, you can invite 30 to 320 guests for a meal at the table, and a much larger number of guests for your cocktails.
The Aliénor, Saint-Bernard and Louis Godet rooms, all different, offer you the possibility of receiving your loved ones in the configuration of your choice. Up to 200 people can dine in one room, while having a cocktail room in case of bad weather; the famous plan B, so important!
A catering office, a large refrigerated cabinet, and all the equipment necessary for the reception (tables, chairs, video projector, screens, barnums, etc.) are at your disposal.
Other facilities
Outside, in good weather, you will have the opportunity to have a cocktail in the middle of a pretty wooded park, the opportunity to admire the Aunisian countryside and enjoy warm moments in the open air.
Many possibilities will be offered to you to celebrate your union with a secular ceremony at the foot of the dovecote or in the shade of the trees.
Accommodation
In the first gîte, completely renovated in 2020, 32 people can stay from the day before the wedding to the day after the wedding! Each room is equipped with WC and bathrooms. Another gîte, with swimming pool, can accommodate 17 people! Large common spaces, indoors and outdoors, will allow you to meet up with your loved ones and spend unforgettable moments together.
