Our Venues

Built in 1568 as the summer residence of Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio. Converted to a hotel in 1873. A fixture on the itinerary of European royalty, heads of state, and the quietly discerning ever since. The Mosaic Garden, with its Renaissance nymphaeum of thousands of hand-placed pebbles forming arabesques and mythological reliefs, provides a ceremony backdrop that stops guests mid-sentence. Twenty-five acres of Baroque gardens descend through fountains, ancient statuary, and flowering azaleas to the water. One hundred and fifty-two rooms, each individually appointed with antique silks, velvets, and marble. The floating pool on the lake. Everything here operates at a frequency that announces itself without ever raising its voice.

The former summer residence of the Erba pharmaceutical dynasty, and later the childhood home of filmmaker Luchino Visconti. One of the few lakefront properties on Como with both the scale and the artistry to host a genuinely large celebration without sacrificing intimacy. The interiors are a succession of frescoed rooms, each in a different palette, each a new discovery. The immense botanical park stretches to the water's edge where a private dock allows guests to arrive by boat. Music is permitted late into the night, which is genuinely rare on the lake.

Seventy-three hectares of vineyard, olive grove, and formal French garden in the Luberon. Thirty-five minutes from Aix-en-Provence. The château dates from the 17th century and produces its own wine, its own olive oil, and its own eau de parfum. The grounds offer a cinematic range of settings: ceremony beneath century-old magnolia trees, cocktails by the pool, dinner in the 300-square-metre Nomadic Orangery with views sweeping across the lake and vineyards to the Luberon hills. The property has its own small chapel and a working windmill, one of the last in Provence.

A Belle Époque estate on ten private acres above the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Forty-two rooms. A Toyo Ito-designed glass pavilion. A 25-metre pool. Its own beach club with a private pontoon offering eight-minute boat transfers to Saint-Tropez. Over 300 curated artworks. Available exclusively for private hire. What distinguishes Le Beauvallon is the sheer variety of settings within a single estate. The South Terrace for sweeping arrivals. The Winter Garden, a glass-roofed orangery in midnight blue. The waterfront Rotunda for ceremonies. The beach club for barefoot after-parties. A multi-day celebration here never repeats a single view.

On its own private peninsula reaching into the Mediterranean. Five acres of terraced gardens falling away on three sides to the sea. A Florentine-inspired mansion with 29 rooms and suites, an infinity pool dissolving into the horizon, and 270-degree views from Nice to Monaco. The Temple of Love, a pavilion set into a romantic enclave overlooking the water, exists for moments of ceremony. When the entire estate is exclusively hired, you are surrounded by the Mediterranean on your own promontory. There is nothing else like it on this coast.

Designed by François Mansart, the architect of Versailles. Set within 185 hectares of formal gardens and parkland, forty-five minutes from Paris. The interiors are museum-grade: original tapestries, gilded panelling, a library, salons, and a gallery that photographs like a period film set (it was one, in The Da Vinci Code). Available for full exclusive hire. For couples who want the quintessential French château experience with the depth, the provenance, and the scale to back it up.

Part of the Auberge Resorts Collection. A 13th-century château on 2,500 acres of private forest, lake, meadow, and formal garden. Seventeen suites and six farmhouse cottages. Eighty-one curated artworks and ten large-scale outdoor sculptures. A floating tennis court. Two pools, Roman baths, three libraries, a Cognac lounge. Everything is grown, foraged, or sourced from the surrounding land. This is a property that fundamentally alters your relationship with time. For couples wanting their guests to feel they have stepped into another world entirely, there is no better canvas in France.

In the same family for over 800 years. A 13th-century château on 600 hectares in the Dordogne valley, relaunched after a decade-long renovation by Cyril de Commarque and Ortensia Visconti di Modrone. Historical depth layered with contemporary art, eclectic design, and a warmth that feels genuinely personal. Condé Nast Traveller, Vogue USA, and Elle have all taken notice. The lime tree avenue at the far end of the garden is one of the most romantic ceremony settings we know.
