- DDebbie Donelan26/11/2025A place where memories are madeA place where memories are madeWe attended a wedding at Château de Mainneville and it was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, the splendour of the château took our breath away. The grounds are absolutely beautiful – perfectly kept and full of character, with something for everyone. There’s a small, serene swimming pool, tennis courts, table tennis, and even a trampoline that kept the children (and adults) entertained.The ponds with their huge, graceful fish added a touch of calm and charm. The rooms are simply stunning – elegant, spacious, and decorated with exquisite taste. It’s clear the owners have poured thought and love into every detail. We were lucky with the weather, and the outdoor wedding ceremony in the sunshine was truly unforgettable. It was an idyllic setting - we truly did not want the day to end. We honestly couldn’t recommend Château de Mainneville highly enough – it was perfect in every way.

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
We had the beautiful wedding of Juliette and Brandon who got married in Mainneville last summer. A secular ceremony in the white garden took place in the morning, it was a moment full of poetry which continued with a small lunch in the reception room in the cottages. In the afternoon, the guests were able to stroll through the gardens and enjoy the tranquility of the place with a glass of champagne! A stress-free wedding, with relaxed bride and groom, good humor and a dream setting: the perfect cocktail for a successful wedding!
