Le cadre est incroyable, et le domaine offre une multitude d’endroits magnifiques – le jardin avec son magnifique cèdre, la salle de réception qui fait à la fois luxe, vintage, moderne et authentique (aucune déco en plus est nécessaire !), et que dire de la terrasse du château d’où le coucher de soleil est tout simplement magique. Un endroit incroyable, et qui s’adapte et convient parfaitement à chaque évènement d’un mariage, que ce soit un diner de bienvenue « intimiste » à 50 personnes, ou 160 invités le jour j ?
Mais au-delà du lieu, c’est le service qui permet de recommander ce lieu à 100%. L’équipe est d’un professionnalisme exemplaire, et toujours disponible, réactive, à l’écoute. Aurélie en particulier a été extraordinaire – proactive et bienveillante, on avait presque l’impression d’avoir une wedding planner à nos côtés !
Ils connaissent leur métier et pourtant, ils vous font sentir que votre mariage est unique. Leurs conseils, leur suivi et leur liste de prestataires recommandés (tous excellents !) montrent à quel point ils privilégient la qualité (et la sérénité des mariés !).
Stevie and the team were so accommodating & worked so well with our wedding planner to ensure all our dreams came true. Stevie was on site across the weekend - and was so accommodating of all our guests including, our one year old and other kids that attended!
We loved having breakfast with all our guests each morning in the Orangerie - Paola was wonderful!
The massage and the pool party, the day after the wedding were particular highlights.
We can't wait to come back for an anniversary soon.
They are an established venue so everything from the beginning was streamlined to perfection. Communication (in English) was smooth and easy. our site visit a couple months before the wedding made us eager to return for the big day(s)
It’s a private property so you don’t have to worry about random people on the grounds for your wedding/private event. We especially enjoyed the fact that most of our guests were able to stay on the property (appx 40-ish) so everyone was on time to all the events.
The on site crew was super friendly and efficient, driving all the arrival and departures with golf carts to the parking lot so we didn’t have to drag our suitcases on the gravel paths.
We had a random issue that was discovered after the wedding, a curtain holder was falling off the wall. However, the chateau did a thorough assessment and ultimately deemed that we were not liable for the charge.
We would love to go back for any kind of reason, it was truly a magical experience
Le lieu est tout simplement magnifique et parfaitement adapté à un événement d’envergure. La possibilité d’héberger une quarantaine de personnes sur place a été un réel atout pour nos proches.
Un immense merci à Maéva, dont l’accompagnement discret, bienveillant et professionnel a grandement contribué à la réussite de ce week-end. Nous recommandons ce lieu sans hésitation.
Our guests haven’t stopped talking about what an unforgettable weekend it was - a celebration we'll cherish forever.
The venue itself is a great location to the city centre and airport. The rooms and grounds are beautiful and so well kept - we couldn't believe how quickly everything was tidied up from the night before!
And a special thank you to our incredible wedding coordinator, Stevie, who handled every one of my many questions with patience, professionalism, and expertise!
Thank you :)
1. The château and grounds have been beautifully renovated and are impeccably maintained. It is clear that a lot of thought has been given to the guest experience. The cleaning crew deserves a huge shout-out for the very high level of cleanliness over such extensive buildings, and the grounds-keeping team for the orderly lawns and gardens. We also loved the shady groves of old trees, especially the oak grove where we held our cocktail.
2. The team at Gassies is exceptionally friendly, helpful, and organized. Géraldine is the epitome of calm class, handling any situation with aplomb and bringing a wonderful sense of humor to what can be a stressful time. We worked with a great wedding planner (Nicole at Pétillante Weddings) who handled a lot of the communications in the lead-up to the wedding, but any direct exchanges with the Gassies team were efficient and organized.
3. The amenities were very appreciated -- the pool was in constant use by our friends and family, we had several basketball games, and the kids loved the playground. Baby cribs, irons and steamers, extra tables and chairs, the video projector and screen -- all these little thoughtful touches made the days easier and added joy and fun to our events.
4. The location could not be more ideal -- after dragging our friends and family across continents and oceans for our wedding, everyone appreciated that the wedding events were just a quick 15-20 minute drive from central Bordeaux. This gave everyone more flexibility on plans and hotels. We were also able to easily (and relatively cheaply) organize shuttle transfers back and forth from town. Despite being close to town, once you are at Gassies you really feel like you're in the countryside.
Thank you to the Gassies team for helping us to create very special memories.
