Frequently asked questions

Can we get married in the orchard itself?
Yes. The estate offers ceremony options among the apple trees, though timing affects visual appeal—spring blossom (April-May) creates natural decor, while autumn provides golden-hour lighting and harvest ambiance.
Is the venue accessible by public transport?
Trets is served by regional train connections to Aix-en-Provence. The estate is 3km from Trets town center; shuttle service from the station can be arranged through the venue.
What's the weather like for an outdoor event?
Provence averages 300 sunny days annually. May-October is ideal; April and November carry rain risk. The venue has covered pavilion space as backup.
Can we bring our own catering?
The estate works with an approved vendor list but permits external caterers with prior approval and a coordination fee.
How many guests can stay on-site?
40-50 guests in estate accommodations (guesthouses and renovated farm buildings); additional guests can be placed in Trets hotels 3-5km away.
