Château de Cazenac // Cheese & Wine Evening

A GLORIOUS CHÂTEAU, DELICIOUS FOOD & FABULOUS FRENCH WINE

When your guests have travelled for your destination wedding what a super lovely idea to organise a fabulous evening to welcome them to the event. Holly and James did exactly that. Their wedding guests were treated to the most fabulous Cheese and Wine Night at the Château the evening before their wedding day.

It was the perfect opportunity for Holly and James to welcome their special guests and spend some quality time chatting and relaxing with them. Especially as the wedding day can be such a whirlwind and it can be tricky to have proper conversations with people with so much going on.

Château de Cazenac or The Fairytale Château is nestled in the rolling hills of the Dordogne Valley in the south of France. The Chateau looked magnificent in the late afternoon august sunshine and was beautifully dressed and styled by Jenny Fairbanks and her team. The theme they created for Holly and James was an idyllic French rustic market scene, with wicker baskets full of lavender and rustic wooden crates stacked on top of each other. It was a feast for the eyes not just the bellies!

Robbert and Dave of La Porte Verte Serviced and catered Holly and James and their guests for the whole weekend. They prepared sumptuous platters of French cheese and meats and rustic baguettes and loaves of bread. Not to mention the delicious French wine, oh how I love French wine! But don’t worry… not a sip passed my lips… we couldn’t be having wonky photos now could we?! :) But WOW, what an amazing evening, incredible venue and fantastic bunch of people. I hope you enjoy the photos…
