The area
Choisel is a village in the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse regional nature park, a territory that is 90 % forest, fields and farmland. Around it: the Château de la Madeleine above Chevreuse, the Domaine de Dampierre, the waterfalls of the Vaux de Cernay. For early arrivals, the Jean Racine path from Chevreuse to the Abbey of Port-Royal des Champs, or Perrault's tales at the château.

Who is Fervenza?

How much does a wedding at Château de Breteuil cost?
From €54,000, all-inclusive, for the big day and about 100 guests: the venue, the table, the flowers, the music, your photos, and us on site. The exact price depends on your date, your guest count and the salons you choose, and you get it in writing within a week.
Can the price change?
Once you agree, no. It only changes if you change the wedding: more or fewer guests, or something you add along the way.
What if one of our suppliers can't make it?
We replace them. They're our suppliers, under our contract, so the two of you have nothing to search for or renegotiate. You approve the choice, and we take care of the rest.
Can we insure our wedding?
Yes, if you wish. We can offer optional cancellation insurance dedicated to your wedding, placed with Lloyd's. It covers cancelling or postponing for reasons beyond your control, including if one of you can't be there, as set out in the policy terms.
What if we booked the château directly?
You can, it's a beautiful house. The château rents you its salons or its Orangerie, with their gardens, the caterer's kitchen and the parking. You then bring together the caterer, the furniture, the DJ, the decor and the florist. With us, all of that is in your price, every choice stays yours, and the château keeps its own rate. You come to get married.
How many guests can we invite?
Up to 250. The four salons in a row, Grande Galerie included, welcome up to 250 people; the Orangerie, with its terrace and gardens, up to 150.
Which dates are still free?
Tell us your date, we check with the château and reply in writing. It hosts at most one event a day, and the château is open every day of the year.
Will the château be ours alone?
The salons or the Orangerie, with their gardens, are privately hired for you. The park stays open to walkers until it closes, 8 pm in summer, and they grow few from late afternoon: the last château tour starts at 5.30 pm. By evening, the estate belongs to you and your guests.
Can we have a secular ceremony on site?
Yes: in the formal garden, between the water mirror, the statues and the clipped yews, or on the Orangerie side, on the Italian terrace and in the Jardin des Princes. If it rains, in one of the château's salons.
Can we have our civil wedding in Choisel?
In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the château. Choisel town hall can marry you if one of you, or one of your parents, lives there or has lived there for at least a month. Otherwise, the civil wedding happens in your own town, and the ceremony at the château.
Our guests are flying in. Is it easy for them?
Yes: Paris Orly airport is 40 minutes away, Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse station, on the RER B from Paris, 15 minutes, and Paris 35 km. Parking at the château is free. To sleep nearby, we give you the best addresses around the château, ready to share with your loved ones.
Coming from abroad: how does it work?
Your contract is governed by French law, and also written in English.
Who cooks for our wedding?
The caterer you choose. The château recommends caterers who know the house well, and you are free to pick another. We build the menu with them, you taste it beforehand, and it is included in your price.
Where do we get ready?
In the Chambre Romantique, on the château's first floor, set aside for the couple. On the Orangerie side, two small salons work for getting ready too, and the 3-bedroom apartment on the main courtyard can host the two of you or a few of your family.
Will our grandparents and the children be comfortable?
Yes. The reception rooms are on the ground floor, laid-out paths cross the gardens, and there are accessible toilets. The children have their own room, included with the salons, and the maze of a thousand box trees below the Jardin des Princes.
Can we bring our own vendors?
Yes, and if you already have a vendor in mind, they're welcome. Your photos are included, with our photographers. If you already have yours, we welcome them into the team and adjust your price. At the château, the caterer, the DJ, the florist and the decor are all your choice, with a recommended selection if you'd like one.
