Why book?

If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels unmistakably French, Château des Joncherets is pretty hard to beat. This 17th-century château sits just an hour from Paris, surrounded by historic gardens designed by André Le Nôtre, creating a setting that feels straight out of another era while still offering the modern comforts you want for a celebration. Couples can host everything from intimate gatherings to full wedding weekends, with elegant indoor spaces, expansive gardens, and plenty of flexibility to bring their vision to life. Plus, owners Kate and Paul bring more than 15 years of hospitality experience and can help connect you with trusted local vendors—or welcome your own team. It’s the kind of place where the setting does a lot of the work and your wedding can truly feel like an experience.

Q&A

Connect with this vendor by getting to know them beyond their work.

What is your specialty or personal style?

I have worked in events and hospitality for the past 20 years so I have a special eye for event logistics, aesthetics, and the culinary aspects of special occasions. I'm happy to share complimentary event tips and personalized consulting to our brides and grooms!

What aspect of your job never ceases to give you butterflies or make you excited?

I love to be part of one of the most important milestones of someone's entire life: bringing the people -who made them who they are today - together to witness their commitment to love and partnership. Weddings are a true celebration of the power of friendship, love, community, and connection... And it's a rare moment that remains with each guest forever.

What part of your business are you best at?

I highly value transparency and offering couples more than what they asked - For instance, I provide wedding budget tools and projections so that couples can stick to their budgets and plan with financial confidence. I have interviewed and triaged talent for the best quality, communication, talent, and price ratio so that couples save hours of time comparing and weeding through proposals. We offer high quality decoration props such as porcelain Vases and vintage event furniture or wooden dinner tables and chairs - all free of charge. I also offer complimentary event consulting services to help couples navigate everything from talent selection to the logistics of execution.

What is your favorite thing to do when not working?

Combing through antique stores for treasures to place in guests rooms, dining out at local restaurants, discovering the villages that surround our chateau.

Do you have a favorite wedding story or moment from your career?

One of our brides was feeling nervous the day of the wedding and while her mother and bridesmaid comforted her, our partner hairstylist put down her curling iron and gave the bride a full neck and arm massage. To see so many people come together to turn the bride's worried tears into a grateful smile reinforced the love and support that goes into such a special day. The bride and groom truly are the number one and I see this reflected in everything the families and wedding talent do on the wedding day.
