Why we love Domaine du Mont Leuze

A road of hairpin bends above Villefranche, a gate under the ivy, and the whole coast at once: the Bay of Nice, Cap Ferrat, the hills. A 19th-century farming estate 600 metres up, with a terrace for every moment of your evening, each with its own view. What your guests will talk about on the way home: dinner, as Nice lights up below.

The area

The estate looks down on Villefranche-sur-Mer and its bay, one of the deepest in the Mediterranean, guarded by the 16th-century Saint-Elme citadel. Èze, its hilltop village and its listed church are 15 minutes away. For early arrivals, the flower market on the Cours Saleya in Nice, Tuesday to Sunday; on Mondays, the antiques dealers take over.

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 Domaine du Mont Leuze cost?

From £61,000, all-inclusive, for about 80 guests on an evening between May and September: the venue, the table, the flowers, the music, your photos, and us on site. More guests, or the full weekend with the brunch: we add it, and your exact price arrives 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 domain directly?

You can, it's a beautiful place. The domain rents you its reception spaces for the evening, with security and cleaning, and recommends its caterers. You then bring together the caterer, the drinks, the decor, the lighting, the music and the photographer. With us, all of that is in your price, every choice stays yours, and the domain keeps its own rate. You come to get married.

How many guests can we invite?

Up to 280 at table on the Toit du Monde and 500 for a standing party. For a smaller wedding, the Terrazzita seats 100 in the shade of the trees, and the château's upstairs hall 160.

Which dates are still free?

Tell us your date, we check with the domain and reply in writing.

Is the domain ours for the day?

Yes: the domain hosts one event a day, so the terraces, the gardens and the château are yours for the evening. We confirm it in writing with the domain for your date, and for the whole weekend if you stay on.

Can we have a secular ceremony on site?

Yes, on the Vista terrace, facing the Cap Ferrat peninsula, for up to 250 guests, or in the gardens with the sea behind you. You write the ceremony that feels like you, we set the scene.

Can we have our civil wedding in Villefranche-sur-Mer?

In France, a civil wedding always takes place at a town hall, never at the domain. Villefranche-sur-Mer 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 domain.

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

Yes: Nice Côte d'Azur airport and Nice station are about 20 minutes away, Nice itself 15. Thirty of them can sleep on the estate, and for the others we share the best addresses in Villefranche and Èze.

Coming from abroad: how does it work?

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

How late can the party go?

Until 2.30 am. The music plays outside until midnight, then the party moves inside the château and carries on there. We confirm the domain's exact times for your date, in writing.

How do our guests get home after the party?

Thirty of them sleep on the estate and only have a few steps to their bed. The others stay in Villefranche, Èze or Nice, 15 minutes away. We give you the addresses, ready to share with your loved ones.

What if it rains?

Rain plan: the château's two halls, which open onto the Toit du Monde. Upstairs seats 160 at table, the ground floor 80, so dinner and dancing stay together under one roof.

Can our wedding dinner be kosher?

Yes. The domain has a kosher kitchen alongside its main one, and works with a kosher caterer. A chuppah facing the sea on the Vista terrace, a kosher dinner on the Toit du Monde: we put it all together with you.

Where do we get ready?

In the domain's two suites, the bridal suite and the Cyprès suite, a few steps from the reception. One of you in each, if you'd like to see each other for the first time at the ceremony.

Will our grandparents manage?

The estate sits on a hillside, and the ceremony terrace lies below the château. Couples have gone down to their ceremony by golf cart: we ask the domain for it for those who walk less, and check every step with them.
