A tour through Château d’Estoublon, a luxury wedding venue in Provence, and how to know if it’s the perfect destination wedding venue for you
There is an unmistakable magic about Château d’Estoublon, a luxury wedding venue in Provence, France. It’s clear when you turn through the towering gates that you’ve arrived to a truly remarkable place. I first visited Château d’Estoublon on a blazing hot summer day. As we entered the property, we passed cypress trees and rows of vineyards, their grapes sweetening in the heat of the sun. We drove by an olive tree grove before rounding a corner for a first glimpse of the château. It was love at first sight…
Château d’Estoublon’s story begins in 1489, when wine and olive oil production first began on the grounds. The domain itself was initially built in the 18th century, but has recently undergone an extensive restoration. The long restoration process left no detail untouched—the design beautifully blends luxury with a relaxed, effortless quality. Every sitting room, bedroom, bathroom, and corridor has been designed to meet—and I daresay, surpass—a high-end luxury standard.
So with all its luxurious qualities and charm, here’s how to know if Chateau d’Estoublon Provence wedding venue is the perfect destination venue for you:

The property itself offers so much, there’s little reason to leave. With its pool, gardens, shop, and restaurant, it offers a perfect escape to the Provençal countryside.
