Asked along the way.
What does a wedding at Château de Berne cost?+
The estate publishes two packages, both including VAT and both requiring a two-night minimum: from €19,500 for ten bedrooms and two reception spaces, and from €95,500 for exclusive use of the estate and all 34 bedrooms. Food and drink are quoted separately.
How many guests can Château de Berne host?+
Both published packages cap at 120 guests. That covers the ceremony on the Scène sur l’eau and dinner in the Jardin du Jasmin. Anything larger is outside what the estate advertises, so raise it before you plan a bigger list.
What do food and drink cost per person?+
The estate publishes drinks packages at €35, €40 and €50 per person and two set menus at €39 and €49 per person. Those are the published starting points; a longer bar or a menu written for you will be quoted above them.
Can wedding guests stay on the estate?+
Yes. There are 34 bedrooms. The smaller package includes ten of them and the exclusive-use package takes all 34, which houses roughly 60 to 68 people. Guests beyond that stay in Lorgues or Draguignan, both about 15 minutes away.
Which airport should guests use?+
Nice Côte d’Azur (NCE) is about an hour and a quarter by car and has the region’s widest international schedule. Marseille Provence is about an hour and a half. Toulon Hyères is closer but serves far fewer routes.
