Château de la Boutinière – Your Micro Wedding Venue

An Intimate Micro Wedding Venue in France

A micro wedding is about intention rather than scale. It strips away excess and focuses on what matters most: the people, the setting and the experience you share together.

At Château de la Boutinière, micro weddings are not treated as a reduced version of a larger event, but are hosted within a carefully considered micro wedding venue designed for intimate celebrations. 

Set in the French countryside, the château offers a refined yet relaxed setting for couples seeking an intimate wedding that feels personal, unhurried and complete.

Why Choose Château de la Boutinière as Your Micro Wedding Venue?

Not all wedding venues are suited to small celebrations. Large estates can feel empty when guest numbers are limited. Château de la Boutinière offers a sense of proportion that works naturally for micro weddings.

The château is hired exclusively, ensuring complete privacy and allowing couples and their guests to experience the estate as a shared space rather than a venue being managed around them.

Guest Numbers, Flow and Atmosphere

The layout of the château supports intimate gatherings without compromising on occasion, making it well-suited to couples seeking a micro wedding venue that feels balanced rather than scaled down. Ceremony spaces, dining areas and reception settings are close enough to maintain connection, while still offering variety throughout the day.

With fewer guests, the atmosphere remains relaxed and social. Conversations happen easily. Moments are not rushed. The day feels cohesive rather than scheduled.

Accommodation and Staying Together

On-site accommodation allows couples and their guests to stay together at the château, which is particularly important when choosing a micro wedding venue. Sharing the same space before and after the wedding turns the celebration into a complete experience rather than a single event.

This creates time for informal meals, quiet conversations and unstructured moments that are often lost in larger weddings.
