The area
Pézenas is a small town of art and history in the Hérault, where Molière stayed several times in the 1650s and grand mansions line the streets. On Saturday morning, 120 market stalls run through the centre, and the petit pâté de Pézenas, sweet and savoury, is a must. The sea is about 20 km away.

Who is Fervenza?
Fervenza is a French company for all-inclusive weddings. With Émilie and the whole team, we're already planning weddings for 2027 and 2028.
- A French company, licensed for live events Your contract is governed by French law, and written in English too
- Insured for professional liability
How much does a wedding at Château de Saint-Martin de Graves cost?
From €49,000, all-inclusive, for about 100 guests: the venue, the table, the flowers, the music, your photos, and us on site. The exact price depends on your date and your guest count, 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 estate directly?
You can, it's a lovely family estate. It rents you Les Écuries and the park from Saturday morning to Sunday afternoon, with its tables and chairs. You then bring together the caterer and the service, the decor, the music, the flowers and the photographer. With us, all of that is in your price, every choice stays yours, and the estate keeps its own rate. You come to get married.
How many guests can we invite?
Up to 140 at the table in Les Écuries, and 180 for drinks. The park hosts the ceremony and the drinks, and in summer dinner can also move outside onto the lit lawn.
Will the estate be ours alone?
For your wedding, yes: the estate hosts one event a day, so Les Écuries and the park are yours. To have every house and Le Pailler for your people too, it offers a full privatisation, hall and lodging together: we arrange it with the estate.
How late can we party, and how do our guests get back?
The estate states no end time: the party is in Les Écuries, under their starry ceiling, with the lit lawn right outside for a breath of air. About fifty of your people only have a few steps to their bed. Those staying in Pézenas find their address in the list we give you, ready to share with your loved ones.
Which dates are still free?
Tell us your date, we check with the estate and reply in writing.
Can we have a secular ceremony on site?
Yes, in the park, facing the château, in the shade of tall trees. Your words, your officiant, your people around you. If it rains, the estate opens its wine cellar to welcome you under cover.
Can we have our civil wedding in Pézenas?
In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the château. Pézenas 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 on the estate.
Our guests are flying in. Is it easy for them?
Yes: the nearest airport is Béziers Cap d'Agde, and Montpellier airport serves the area too. Pézenas lies 23 km from Béziers and 51 km from Montpellier, both with train stations. About fifty of them sleep on the estate, and we share the best addresses nearby for the others.
Where do our guests sleep?
About fifty on the estate: Le Pailler and its 15 air-conditioned alcoves welcome 32, two small houses 6 each, and La Grande Maison has 4 bedrooms. Bed linen is provided and the pool waits for them between celebrations. Pézenas, right next door, for the others: we give you the addresses, ready to share.
Where do we get ready?
On the estate, in one of its houses: La Grande Maison, with its 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and its sitting room with a fireplace, is perfect for getting ready, each of you with your people. We plan it with you.
What about the heat in July?
In July, afternoons reach around 30 °C in Pézenas, and it is the driest month. Les Écuries are air-conditioned and the park has deep shade under its tall trees: we hold the ceremony late in the afternoon, and dinner stays cool.
Will our grandparents and the children be comfortable?
Yes: parking on the estate, accessible restrooms in Les Écuries, and an accessible alcove and shower at Le Pailler. For the little ones, a cot and a high chair on request, and a common room with a play corner.
Can we taste the estate's wines?
Yes, and it's one of the good moments: the estate makes its own AOP Languedoc and Pays d'Oc wines, and you taste them in its cellar. If you love them, they are the ones we pour at your dinner.
Coming from abroad: how does it work?
Your contract is governed by French law, and also written in English.
