Your questions, my answers

Budget, fees, timing, suppliers, couples coming from abroad: here are the questions I am asked most often before planning a château or wine-estate wedding in the Beaujolais, the Lyon area, Southern Burgundy and the Bresse.

For full planning between May and September, ideally 18 to 24 months before the date: the finest venues and suppliers book early. For coordination only, 6 to 12 months before.

It all depends on the experience you wish to live and share with your guests. For a three-day wedding at a château or wine estate, allow from €45,000. From our very first meeting, I help you build a realistic budget.

Clear flat fees, from €2,200 for wedding-day coordination to €6,600 for the Signature 3-day weekend package. For wedding budgets above €67,000, my fees are 10% of the total budget. Payment in three instalments: 30% on signing, 40% eight months before, 30% in the final month. Speech coaching for your loved ones: from €600, on request.

Of course. I pick up wherever you are, review the contracts already signed and take over everything else.

Yes. I introduce you to trusted partners chosen for their high standards, but the final word is always yours. If you already have suppliers, I coordinate them with the same care.

Yes, and never alone: two people from Nadège Pinvin Weddings attend every wedding. I take on only 10 to 12 weddings per season, including 6 full-planning weddings, so that I am fully available to each of my couples.

Every wedding has a plan B, built in from the choice of venue: an indoor space, marquees or another layout. On the day, I make the call and handle the switch. You simply enjoy.

Yes. My wedding planning business is covered by professional liability insurance with Generali. The certificate is available on request.
