Gascony is an area of southwest France that was part of the "Province of Guyenne and Gascony" prior to the French Revolution. Land of Armagnac, foie gras, truffles & D’Artagnon and the Musketeers.

There are tonnes of options to keep you occupied if you visit for longer than the weekend. 
Gascony is one of the most unspoilt and rural regions of France with idyllic local villages and towns, beautiful scenery and a fantastic reputation for its gastronomy with local markets and restaurants selling wonderful local produce including foie gras and confits.

YES! We love a good speech. Please inform our wedding planner Roos if you want to surprise us with a speech or other funny performance. We appreciate your efforts enormously!

Please inform Roos ([email protected]) as soon as possible about your dietary wishes. We want you all to be safe and comfortable! 

During our evening dinners on Friday, Saturday and Sunday we'll make sure that we have a vegetarian and non vegetarian meal as the standard. 

Cliché, but true: our biggest gift is your attendance to our wedding. We are aware that many people are making a huge effort to get to France for our wedding and for us, genuinely, your presence at our wedding is more than we could hope for. 
Should you wish to give us a gift, a contribution towards our honeymoon in Africa would be lovely. 

Unfortunately, as much as we’ d love to invite all of our friends’ children, we are unable to accommodate children beyond our flower girls.

We hope that you will understand this decision and that you will still be able to join us on our special wedding weekend.

Oh la la. In order to keep our guest list on track we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. Please feel free to e-mail us with any questions!

We’ d love to hear from you! Please e-mail us at [email protected] with any questions, or just to say “hi!” We can’t wait to see you!

We aim on that the French government removes all limits on social contact, including wedding restrictions by September 2021. If this is not the case, we will follow up with the Covid-19 guidelines provided by the French government.
One of the measures, we are considering is proper testing ahead of our wedding to keep all you all healthy and safe. Since you are traveling from United States, United Kingdom, France and The Netherlands to come to our wedding, this is obviously our top priority and concern.

As we cannot predict the situation in September, we will update you via e-mail on the latest on this. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with us or Roos if you have any concerns.
