LET'S PLAN YOUR WEDDING IN PROVENCE
Your wedding Planner in Provence
Provence is the most requested destination for international couples dreaming of a wedding in France and for good reason. The light here is extraordinary. The landscapes, from lavender fields to ancient stone bastides, offer a backdrop that photographers spend entire careers trying to capture. And the region's culinary tradition makes for wedding menus that guests remember for years.
Beyond the Pines plans destination weddings across Provence for couples from the UK, Ireland, the USA, Australia, and beyond. Guillaume brings the same bilingual expertise and balance-first approach he applies to every project combined with a growing network of trusted Provençal vendors, florists, caterers, and venue teams built through direct experience on the ground.
Whether you're drawn to an intimate ceremony in a lavender-framed garden or a grand reception in a historic château, Provence has a setting for every vision, and Guillaume knows how to find it.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Planning your wedding in Provence
Provence offers something no other French region can quite replicate: a combination of natural beauty, historic architecture, exceptional food and wine, and a pace of life that puts guests at ease the moment they arrive. For international couples, it is also remarkably well-connected: Marseille, Nice, and Avignon are all easily accessible from London, Dublin, New York, and beyond.
The Provençal wedding season runs from May to October, with late spring and early September offering the most reliable conditions: warm evenings, long golden hours, and the iconic landscapes at their most vivid.
Planning a wedding in Provence as an international couple, however, requires navigating French-language vendor relationships, regional logistics, and a venue market that moves quickly. This is exactly where Guillaume's bilingual expertise and local network make the difference: handling everything in the right language, with the right cultural understanding.
