Château de Montrouge — Savigneux

A château wedding in Savigneux, Loire

Château de Montrouge hosts weddings, private celebrations and business events in Savigneux near Montbrison, in the Loire department of France. Its turreted château, reception facilities and gardens form a countryside estate. The current official website confirms an air-conditioned hall, covered drinks space, overnight accommodation and a children’s room. When planning your wedding, distinguish the areas actually reserved, included services and arrangements provided by partners.

Main hall, drinks reception and ceremony

Specialist descriptions agree on a 300-square-metre main hall with up to 250 banquet places, but give conflicting standing limits of 300 or 500 for that room. Confirm the current limit with your dance floor, stage, furniture and circulation routes. A covered drinks area of around 500 square metres is described near the pool, with a secondary limit of 500 standing guests. This does not guarantee 500 dinner places. An outdoor ceremony may be arranged in the grounds subject to agreement; no official ceremony capacity is published. Request a wet-weather plan and setup terms without adding separate room capacities together.

Official venue-hire price

The official wedding page reviewed on 29 October 2026 advertises €4,500 for hall hire from Friday at 9 am, including decoration time, until Sunday midday. Extending Sunday use from noon to 7 pm is listed at an additional €600. These are hall-hire prices, not per-person menus. An older secondary figure of €3,500 should not be treated as current. The public price does not explicitly itemise VAT, seasonality, overnight stays, meals, cleaning, security deposit or technical services: obtain a complete dated quotation.

Catering, drinks and suppliers

The estate offers planning support and partner suppliers; other published catering terms conflict between required catering and permission to bring an outside caterer. Free supplier choice cannot therefore be guaranteed without written agreement. Wedding information describes drinks reception and dinner, table linen, crockery, glassware and service, with drinks priced separately and no corkage subject to confirmation. No reliable current menu price is established. Discuss vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and other dietary needs directly with the caterer. Obtain prices for outside cakes, staffing hours, cleaning and extras; confirm photographer and music supplier rules in the contract too.

Overnight stays, children and facilities

The current website confirms on-site overnight accommodation without publishing a count. The historic official site and wedding information indicate 46 beds; other professional profiles quote higher totals or no accommodation. Treat 46 as an indication requiring confirmation and request an up-to-date room, bed, bathroom and price list without relying on larger totals. A children’s room and pool are mentioned; childcare and supervised swimming are not guaranteed. Adults remain responsible for supervision. Specialist profiles describe sound and lighting equipment and furniture; availability, specifications and inclusions depend on the package.

Planning visit, access and booking terms

The estate is at 2145 Rue de Chantegrelet, 42600 Savigneux, France. Its exact Google Maps château marker is 45.6299801, 4.0963669. Professional access directions mention the A72, exit 10 Montbrison; confirm coach and delivery access and parking availability with the team. Accessibility descriptions conflict; Google lists an accessible entrance but does not establish every route or toilet facility. Arrange a visit tailored to your guests. Full exclusive use is not established and wedding information reports that several events can take place on the same day. Confirm the music finish time: office opening hours are not party hours. Secondary information indicates a 50% booking payment and the balance during the wedding week. Obtain written cancellation, postponement, insurance and handover terms. Official contacts: +33 9 74 56 32 60; the historic website also publishes +33 6 85 48 00 48 and chateaudemontrouge@orange.fr.
