Let’s Get Dressed Up
For our wedding, think breezy, stylish cocktail attire
A step up from casual, but no tuxes or ball gowns needed. Lightweight dresses, suits or slacks with a dress shirt, or jumpsuits are perfect for moving and dancing.
When in doubt, wear something you feel good in, and maybe a little extra festive—we’re here to celebrate, not attend Paris Fashion Week.
What does Cocktail Attire mean to us?
Ladies
For women, opt for a knee-length, midi, or smart mini-dresses, or choose a chic jumpsuit. Footwear can include heels, flats or sandals, complemented by a small clutch and statement jewellery to complete the look.
Gents
For men, a well-tailored suit made of wool, linen, or cotton blends suiting the climate. Pair this with some nice dress shoes. A tie or bowtie are optional but by no means a requirement.
Expect Warmth & Sunshine
The South of France in July promises lovely warm weather, with average highs around 30-35°C (84-86°F) and lows between 20-25°C (64-68°F). It will be warm, and we’ll be sure to keep you cool and hydrated throughout the celebrations
Other Wedding Weekend Events
For the Friday Welcome Soirée, plan to spend most of the day by the pool, so pack your swimwear and casual poolside attire; for dinner that evening, smart casual attire would be perfect. On Sunday, there’s no need to dress up for the Wedding Brunch – just come as you are, even in your pyjamas if you wish!
Explore Château Hermitage De Combas
Nestled in the heart of the Languedoc-Roussillon vineyards, just minutes from Pézenas, Béziers, and about half an hour to the Mediterranean Sea, Château Hermitage de Combas is a truly magical setting. What started as a medieval fortress in the 13th century has evolved into an enchanting retreat—full of history, charm, and modern comforts that the two of us absolutely adore (and we hope that you will too!).
Why We Fell in Love With It
The château blends the romance of centuries past with the comforts and conveniences of today. We love the idea of friends and family wandering through vine-framed gardens, gathering in sunlight-filled spaces, lounging by the pool, or enjoying pétanque matches beside ancient oaks.
It’s exactly the kind of place we dreamed would hold our wedding—a place that feels like home, history, and holiday all rolled into one unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to share it with you!
Gifts
Your presence at our wedding is truly the only gift we need, please don’t feel obligated to bring anything but your dancing shoes! If you’re feeling generous and wish to give a gift, you are welcome to contribute to our honeymoon fund.
