Why we love Château de Saint-Martin du Tertre

A pale-stone facade drawn after Maisons-Laffitte, a grand staircase under the chandeliers, 42 hectares of park and forest. The château all yours, 30 minutes from Paris. And the story told over dinner: in the Belle Époque, the duke who built it hired a train at the Gare du Nord for his guests.

The area

Saint-Martin-du-Tertre is known as the balcony of the Île-de-France, a hilltop village by the Carnelle forest, where the Pierre Turquaise, a prehistoric monument, hides in the woods. For early arrivals: the market under the listed hall of Luzarches on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, and the cloister of Royaumont abbey, founded by Saint Louis.

Who is Fervenza?

Fervenza is a French company that plans weddings with everything included. With Émilie and the whole team, we’re already planning the weddings of 2027 and 2028.

  • French company, licensed live-event producer Your contract is governed by French law
  • Covered by professional liability insurance
How much does a wedding at Château de Saint-Martin du Tertre cost?

From £82,000, all-inclusive, for about 100 guests: the château from 10 am to 5 am, the table, the flowers, the music, your photos, and us on site. If you'd like your closest people to sleep at the château, the price follows the château's own rate. The exact price depends on your date and your guest count, in writing within a week.

Can the price change?

Once we’ve agreed, no. It only changes if you change the wedding: more or fewer guests, a wish added along the way.

What if one of our suppliers can’t make it?

We replace them. They’re our suppliers, under our contract, so the two of you have nothing to search for or renegotiate. You approve the choice, and we take care of the rest.

Can we insure our wedding?

Yes, if you wish. We can offer optional cancellation insurance dedicated to your wedding, placed with Lloyd’s. It covers cancelling or postponing for reasons beyond your control, including if one of you can’t be there, as set out in the policy terms.

What if we booked the château directly?

You can, it's a beautiful house. The château rents you its salons, its park, its furniture and its sound system, and shares its list of partners. You then bring together the caterer, the flowers and decor, the DJ, the photos and the film, the officiant. With us, all of that is in your price, every choice stays yours, and the château keeps its own rate. You come to get married.

How many guests can we invite?

Up to 340 at table in the château's salons, 220 of them in the Salle de Gala, which holds up to 440 for drinks. For something more intimate, the library seats 60.

Which dates are still free?

Tell us your date, we check with the château and reply in writing. It hosts one wedding at a time: on the day, the whole estate is yours.

Can we have a secular ceremony on site?

Yes: on the esplanade between the two bronze lions, in front of the facade, under the columned rotunda in the park or on the pond terrace. You choose your words, we set out the chairs and the flowers.

Can we have our civil wedding in Saint-Martin-du-Tertre?

In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the château. Saint-Martin-du-Tertre town hall can marry you if one of you, or one of your parents, lives there or has lived there for at least a month. Otherwise, the civil wedding happens in your own town, and the ceremony at the château.

Our guests are flying in. Is it easy for them?

Yes: Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport is 15 minutes away and Paris 30. By train, line H runs from the Gare du Nord to Belloy - Saint-Martin in 36 to 38 minutes, a short drive from the château, just as the duke's guests came. To sleep nearby, we give you the best addresses around, ready to share with your loved ones.

Coming from abroad: how does it work?

Your contract is governed by French law, and also written in English.

Who cooks for our wedding?

The caterer we choose together, among the château's partner houses or another one, within the château's conditions. They cook on site, in the château's catering kitchen. We build the menu with you, you taste it beforehand, and it is included in your price.

How late can the party go?

Until 5 am. The château is yours from 10 am, you dance at the château, and those sleeping there stay until noon the next day. We confirm the details for your date in writing.

What if it rains?

Rain plan: everything planned outdoors moves into the château. The ceremony in one of the salons, dinner in the Salle de Gala under its 6-metre ceilings, and the party in the salons, as planned.

Where do we get ready?

In the bridal suite, a 58 m² salon with a balcony and pastel blue panelling, next to the bedroom with its carved Venetian bed. The second salon, with its Chesterfield sofas and a 17th-century triptych mirror, is for the other one of you, if you'd like to see each other for the first time at the ceremony.

Can our guests sleep at the château?

Yes, with the château's offers that include the rooms: 32 beds in double rooms and family suites for up to 8, and two baby cots. For everyone else, the château works with the nearest hotels, and Royaumont abbey has 53 rooms at weekends. We give you the addresses, ready to share.

Can we have fireworks?

Yes: the esplanade is the place to watch fireworks set off from the garden, with the château lit up behind, as at the Belle Époque parties. A fireworks maker is on the château's partner list, and we confirm the conditions for your date in writing.

Can we bring our own vendors?

Yes, and if you already have a vendor in mind, they're welcome. Your photos are included, with our photographers. If you already have yours, we welcome them into the team and adjust your price. For the table, you choose among the château's partner caterers or another one, within its conditions.
