Describe the best wedding that happened at Château de Lacoste?
A picturesque wedding surrounded by the landscapes of Périgord Noir. The bride and groom exchanged their vows under an arch of flowers at the foot of the Lourdes cave facing the beautiful view of the Dordogne valley and its castles. Then a chic cocktail, prepared with local products, delighted the guests in the boxwood and rose garden. The dinner continued under the stars on the north terrace of the Chateau. Finally the dance, both decadent and elegant, took place in the 18th century salon. Lots of flowers, candles and details added charm and an intimate dimension to this memorable day.
