The area
Lorgues is an old Templar town of the Var, with its 12th-century ramparts, a 28-metre clock tower from 1623 and its collegiate church of Saint-Martin. For the guests who come early: the Lorgues market, Tuesday mornings all year round, the producers' market on Friday mornings from May to October, and the Cistercian abbey of Le Thoronet, famous for its acoustics.

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 les Crostes cost?
From €60,000, 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 château directly?
You can, it's a beautiful house. The château rents you its estate and its 12 rooms, and shares its addresses. You then bring together the caterer, the cleaning, the reception tent, the flowers, the music and the photographer. 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 150, everything outdoors on the two large terraces, one for drinks, the other for dinner. 28 of them can sleep at the château.
Which dates are still free?
Tell us your date, we check with the château and reply in writing. The château is open all year; in June and July it is booked for 4 days at least, so you get one more day on the estate.
Can we have a secular ceremony on site?
Yes, wherever you prefer: among the vines, under the olive trees in front of the ochre facade, on a terrace or by the lily pond at the end of the park. Your words, your officiant, your people around you.
Can we have our civil wedding in Lorgues?
In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the château. Lorgues 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: the airports of Nice and Toulon-Hyères are about an hour away, and the Les Arcs-Draguignan TGV station is 10 km from Lorgues. Aix-en-Provence is an hour away, Marseille an hour and a half. To sleep, we give you the addresses around the château, ready to share with your loved ones.
And those who don't sleep at the château, how do they get back?
The château has its own parking for those who come by car. For the guesthouses of Lorgues and the hotels around, we give you the addresses, 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. At the château, the hosts speak English, and the wedding brochure exists in English too.
Where do we get ready?
In the Syrah suite, the largest at the château: over 70 m², a view over the park and the vines, a little corner in one of the turrets and a whirlpool bath. The other one of you can get ready in one of the classic suites, each with its own sitting area.
How late does the party go?
As late as you like: the château sets no time limit on the music. The party happens outdoors, on the terrace under the stars or in the tent, and the bedrooms are a few steps away when it's time.
And if it rains?
We plan a reception tent on the estate: if the sky clouds over, drinks, dinner and the party move in, and the day keeps its shape. Your people sleeping at the château are only a few steps from their rooms.
Are children welcome?
Very much so: a swing and a little nature play area, the estate's hens, rabbits, duck and goats, the pool, and two family suites that sleep four. The ground-floor Garden room, by the pool, suits the grandparents.
Can we serve the estate's wine?
Yes, and we recommend it: the rosé, the white and the red come from the 55 hectares of vines your guests see from the terrace. You taste them at the estate's cellar before choosing, and if you love another wine too, it has its place on the table.
