Getting married at Château du Taillan
Château du Taillan, located just 15 minutes from Bordeaux, is the ideal setting for a wedding that combines elegance, history, and comfort. With its listed historic buildings, park, terrace, and historic cellars, the estate provides everything you need to organize every moment of your special day.
Preparations
From the very morning, the Château becomes your private haven. You can get ready on-site, surrounded by your loved ones and your vendors, in bright and elegant spaces. This prestigious setting allows you to maintain the intimacy of your preparations while taking advantage of the venue’s charm for your photos. You and your future spouse can prepare separately, preserving the excitement of the first look.
The Ceremony
The moment to say “I do” takes place in front of the retable, a true gem classified as a Historic Monument since 1964 and sculpted in the 18th century for the chapel of the Hôpital de la Manufacture in Bordeaux. Steeped in history, this space naturally provides a central aisle for the couple and an ideal arrangement for your guests. The setting requires no additional decoration, its beauty and grandeur create an atmosphere that is both moving and unforgettable.
The Cocktail
After the ceremony, your guests gather on the Château’s terrace, overlooking our 30 hectares of vineyards. This space offers a spectacular view of the estate and the château, while quickly providing shaded areas for hot summer days.
For your couple photos, the location ensures an ideal setting just steps away from the cocktail, allowing for beautiful shots without interrupting the reception. The terrace is also equipped with power outlets for caterers and musical groups, making it easy to set up your culinary and musical entertainment.
The Dinner
The dinner takes place in our historic cellars, dating from the 16th century and classified as part of France’s Historic Heritage. This large hall, overlooking our barrel cellar, combines charm and practicality: it maintains a pleasant temperature even in summer and offers a stunning setting with its arches and views of the barrels.
You can arrange your tables as you wish banquet style, round tables, or more creative layouts and enhance the room with natural lighting or your personalized decorations, such as candles, chandeliers, or a starry ceiling. The nearby catering station makes service and setup easy, ensuring a smooth and seamless meal.
The Evening Dance
To close the day, the Salle Dame Blanche opens up to the dance floor. It is ready for your DJ or live band, while remaining separate from the dining area so your guests can naturally move into the celebration. The night bar stays open for drink service throughout the evening.
At Château du Taillan, every stage of your wedding takes place in a different setting. Preparations, ceremony, cocktail, dinner, and evening dance: at each moment, an elegant and functional space awaits you for a harmonious and stress-free day.
By choosing Château du Taillan, you benefit from a venue designed to host a complete wedding, combining heritage, comfort, and practicality. Every space is flexible, and every detail is carefully considered, so you can fully enjoy your day and your loved ones.
