The ultimate continental finale to an exclusive uk wedding. Bijou Weddings privately own four elegant, historic country house venues 30–90 minutes from London and the glorious Château du Bijou in the Ardeche, southern France.

Why not choose one of the Bijou Wedding venues for your weekday wedding in the UK and then travel to Château du Bijou can follow as the dream destination for your wedding breakfast and honeymoon.

So if you are looking to take your honeymoon in a beautiful location, in a beautiful Chateau, then look no further.

The C17th Château sits a few miles from the western bank of the Rhône and boasts a Grand Salon banqueting hall for up to 90 guests, terrace dining for up to 200, five further reception rooms, 20 luxurious bedroom suites, classical gardens and two swimming pools.

Bijou will arrange for you and your closest guests to be transferred from the UK venue of your choice and travel in style by private jet to the Château du Bijou.

Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Ardèche from the moment you arrive before you enjoy an opulent local banquet. Celebrate into the early hours in complete privacy after watching the sunset over the rural French countryside before retiring to your rooms as your onward honeymoon beckons.

If you are looking to celebrate your wedding in this area, then Chateau du Bijou catches the best of the continental climate yet is within easy reach of the UK.

Its hidden location in 63 acres of wooded grounds provides a truly tranquil and private setting for all wedding celebrations with two swimming pools, 25 bedrooms and a delightful banqueting hall which seats 90.
• Banqueting Hall capacity - 30–90
• Terrace capacity - 30–200
• 63 acres of woodland grounds
• 20 luxurious bedroom suites
• 5 reception rooms

Chateau du Bijou offers two exceptional ways to celebrate your new life as husband and wife. By either choosing to book your honeymoon here, or even celebrate your wedding and then continue with your honeymoon afterwards, this Chateau has everything.
