Bastide de Puget

A Provençal country-house wedding near Aix

Bastide de Puget offers exclusive hire of an eighteenth-century family home for weddings near Aix-en-Provence. The estate occupies approximately four hectares of parkland, with mature plane trees, pools, fountains and statues. Celebrations can be arranged for an evening or a weekend, using indoor and outdoor spaces with accommodation on site.

Ceremony, drinks, dinner and dancing

The large lawn in front of the bastide provides a setting for a secular ceremony. Drinks can be served in the shaded park, followed by dinner beneath the plane trees or in the reception salons. Chandeliers and openings onto the terrace characterise the indoor spaces, which are also used for dancing. The advertised reception capacity reaches 180 guests; table layouts, dance-floor space and wet-weather arrangements must be approved with the team.

The space information distinguishes reception salons of approximately 180 m² from a covered terrace of approximately 70 m². A separate 110 m² room suits a business event or another arrangement: around 35 in a U-shaped layout or up to 100 for a standing reception, depending on setup. These configurations should not be added together to advertise an additional overall capacity.

Catering and tailored organisation

Receptions are catered exclusively by partner Roland Paix. Food, drinks, service and optional items should be detailed in the event proposal; venue hire does not mean that a menu or bar is included. Decorations, flowers and music are planned according to the event and estate rules.

A brunch can continue the celebration the following day beneath the lime trees. The park and swimming pool also offer possibilities for relaxation. Agree pool access, opening hours, supervision and brunch services in the contract, particularly when children are staying.

On-site bedrooms

The website presents four bedrooms: Baldaquin, Bleue, Toile de Jouy and Jaune. An accommodation arrangement is advertised for up to 11 people depending on room allocation and extra beds; request the precise bed plan, bathroom arrangements, stay duration and inclusions of your chosen package. This does not mean that every bedroom has the same occupancy.

An indicative package describes four bedrooms with bathrooms for one night within exclusive hire, with additional beds offered at €30 per bed per night. These items remain indicative and should appear in the current quotation. Further guests can use nearby hotels and guesthouses through independent reservations.

Budget, inclusions and seasons

The bastide hosts receptions throughout the year and can be heated. Its pricing brochure is supplied by email, with a proposal based on the date and reception format. An indicative high-season exclusive-hire budget for June–September starts at €7,800 for a reception of up to 180 guests. This is not a confirmed quotation for your date; verify tax treatment, current terms and availability.

The indicative package includes exclusive use of the property, four bedrooms for one night, round tables, white chairs and garden lighting. Catering and drinks, floral decoration, a DJ or musicians, the ceremony, brunch and extra beds are priced separately according to the agreement. An itemised written proposal helps distinguish venue hire from the full wedding budget.
