Two large reception halls for your wedding in the Beaujolais region

Located on the garden level, the Guard Room and the Courtroom can host your dinner, your dance party, as well as your brunch the next day or even your non-religious ceremony if the weather doesn’t permit an outdoor wedding.

The Salle de Garde is our largest reception hall for weddings and can seat up to 180 people. Its vaulted ceiling, exposed stonework, and view of the castle’s oak barrels create an authentic atmosphere, while the sophisticated lighting and large floor-to-ceiling windows make it an elegant and pleasant venue for your wedding in the Rhône region. The medieval tower, which opens onto the hall, creates an intimate space that can be set up as a boudoir or used for signing the guest book or displaying gifts.

Used until the early 19th century to settle disputes between neighbors, the adjacent Courtroom offers the perfect venue for your event. It can accommodate the dance floor and the bar; it is equipped with a sound system, a screen, and a video projector for displaying photos and videos.

Because it easily adapts to your needs, it’s perfect for a variety of uses: you can easily host brunches and other activities there. It’s one of the centerpieces of our  A wedding venue in the Rhône-Alpes region.

The various reception spaces at our château in the Rhône region can be adapted to suit any occasion, regardless of the season or the number of guests. In the summer, the château’s grounds and esplanade are ideal for a garden party or a cocktail reception—a unique venue for your wedding in the Rhône-Alpes region.

The Castle's Reception Rooms: An Intimate Atmosphere

As an option, you can reserve the castle’s lounges exclusively for your wedding in the Rhône-Alpes region. Located on the upper floor, this suite of intimate spaces consists of a large lounge, a library, a billiards room with a smoking lounge, and a wood-paneled room.

The colors and elegance of the decor create a warm and inviting atmosphere that will make you feel like you’re living the life of a castle during your stay. Our reception rooms are the perfect setting for the bride and groom to get ready before the ceremony, as well as for a luncheon with your loved ones before the big evening celebration or a memorable photo shoot.

The Castle Gardens: A Truly Romantic Setting

Champ-Renard is the ideal wedding venue in the Rhône region, thanks in part to its outdoor spaces, which give it the air of a fairytale castle— a wedding estate in the Rhône. You reach the estate by walking up a long driveway lined with century-old trees that leads to our superb 1.6-hectare English-style park, where you’ll come across a rock bridge, an artificial stream, a bamboo grove, and a giant sequoia.

An enchanting setting, perfect for your wedding in the Rhône region! The tree-lined path is ideal for hosting your ceremony or reception on sunny days; and you and your guests are free to explore our grounds to take photos and relax.

Located across from the park, near our luxury wedding venues in the Beaujolais region, the stone esplanade is the perfect spot to take your group photos or host your reception or cocktail hour. In the evening, the château’s façade lights up, ensuring the magic continues well into the night.
