A quick message from Nathalie
A Château with Provençal Heart
Built in 1870 and lovingly restored, the château stands surrounded by vines and plane trees — private, peaceful and bathed in southern light.
Inside, high ceilings, wooden floors and a stunning conservatory combine French heritage with modern comfort.
Outside, lawns and terraces are perfect for cocktails in the shade or dinner beneath fairy lights and stars.
Every space is designed for connection — you and your guests together, with Provence all around you.
Designed for International Couples
Planning a destination wedding in France should feel exciting, not complicated.
That’s why we handle every detail with clarity:
Fast, fluent communication in English
A network of trusted bilingual suppliers
Transparent pricing and schedules
Guidance from hosts who’ve planned hundreds of weddings
Whether you’re visiting from abroad or organising everything remotely, you’ll feel supported and understood from the first message to the final toast.
The Reception space
The château’s stunning glass conservatory sets the tone for an unforgettable celebration, blending historic charm with refined elegance. Inside, the reception space exudes warmth and intimacy, creating a magical atmosphere where every moment feels timeless.
Fully air-conditioned and adaptable to your vision, the space accommodates up to 120 guests with a dance floor or can be tailored for more intimate gatherings—even as small as 17 guests. Whether grand or personal, every wedding here is designed to feel truly special. A magical place to spend the most beautiful day of your life.
Your Ceremony
Each couple is different. So are our spaces.
The Gloriette – a quiet garden surrounded by nature, ideal for intimate vows.
The Vineyard View – panoramic, sun-drenched, the pure spirit of Provence.
The Conversatory – elegant, light-filled, perfect in every season.
Whichever you choose, our team will coordinate timing, flow and styling so the ceremony feels effortless — natural, emotional, yours.
“We knew within minutes that this was our place. Everything felt effortless, from the first call to the last dance".
A Home Away from Home for your wedding in Provence
Château la Beaumetane is more than just a wedding venue—it’s a home away from home. From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel at ease in its warm, welcoming atmosphere, allowing you to fully enjoy every moment of your special day.
Beyond the château’s elegant interiors, the outdoor swimming pool offers the perfect space to unwind. Whether it’s a refreshing dip on a warm Provençal afternoon, or a relaxed brunch by the water, it’s an idyllic setting for unforgettable memories.
Your Private Suite
When the last song ends, the château falls silent.
Your wedding suite waits upstairs — calm, romantic, filled with morning light.
It’s where celebration becomes memory.
Stay Together, Sleep Well
No transfers. No taxis. No stress.
Your guests stay right here — in our 4-star on-site accommodation, 43 beds across 20 unique rooms in the former stables. Each combines Provençal character with modern comfort: private bathrooms, air-conditioning, high-quality linens and quiet charm.
It turns your wedding day into a weekend, with breakfasts in the grounds and goodbyes that linger a little longer.
Each room is secure, spacious, and equipped with modern amenities, including private en-suite facilities, air-conditioning, Wi-Fi, a TV, and tea and coffee-making essentials. A dedicated communal space with a fridge and microwave ensures added convenience, while an accessible room is available for guests with reduced mobility.

We're Here to Support You
My name is Nathalie. My roots are here in Provence. Deep roots, because we’re a family of winegrowers in the Coteaux d’Aix en Provence who are still active. I work at Domaine des Oullières, our family estate, half the time. This is Mike, the father of my children. He’s the one who knows all the secrets of La Beaumetane and who looks after the château and its grounds. His British phlegm is a perfect counterbalance to the passionate Provençal spirit that characterises me.
It is now over ten years ago that we came back from England to take care of this magical place and open its doors so that more people could have the chance to experience the gentle life at La Beaumetane. Since then, we’ve hosted hundreds of events, mostly weddings.
What we love most is seeing the magic of La Beaumetane at work: the stars in the eyes of our couples when they discover the venue, and those same stars shining even brighter when they leave after celebrating their wedding.
The two of us will be your only contacts for your wedding. We’ll be there to support you, and guide you through the preparations for your wedding to ensure that your special day is everything you ever dreamed of.
