Moulin de Moulignon in Messy, open June–September.
Built in the 18th century as a working grain mill along the Marne Valley waterways, Moulin de Moulignon has been meticulously restored into a destination wedding venue that honors its milling heritage.
The original stone structure and working mill wheel remain visible throughout the property, creating an authentic backdrop for celebrations.
Set in the quiet village of Messy in the Seine-et-Marne region, this converted mill offers 4.1-star rated accommodations and event spaces within walking distance of the riverside.
Very disappointed by how unprofessional they were. First contact was nice, but that was it. They aren't even capable of maintaining an appointment for a simple visit, we came all the way for nothing. They became especially very rude after it became clear we were inquiring about their rental for a gay wedding. No-go for us.
