Location: 1 hour from Nice, Provence, South of France
Château Pimo, a 19th-century building, nestled in the Haut-Var in Draguignan offered a calm and fragrant welcome as guests arrived with glasses in hand. The Victorian wedding estate in the heart of Provence stretched across three hectares, its restored moldings and bright interiors opening to green lawns and a 300-square-meter rose garden filled with more than 160 rosebushes. Six suites, a guest pavilion, and a spa with counter-current pool and hammam added a sense of retreat. Through open doors and along gravel paths, the scent of roses and sound of conversation drifted across the garden as sunlight shifted over the stone terraces.

Suites, Spa, and a Garden Designed for Ceremony and Celebration
Across the South of France wedding property, movement felt natural. The generous master suite offered room for dressing, while nearby suites hosted close family. The pavilion and spa wing included a couple’s massage room and shaded seating for quiet pauses between preparations. Crisp white tones and soft green accents suited Château Pimo’s architecture, letting details of ironwork and molding stand clear. The rose garden framed the day’s rhythm, ready for ceremony, portraits, or cocktails beneath the early evening light. Around the pool area, guests explored and photographed the layered paths and blooms.
Modern Garden Flow Curated by Wed Love Agency and Captured by Tom Sienna
Design choices leaned modern but thoughtful, aligning with the estate’s Victorian character. Wed Love Agency, one of Provence’s leading wedding planners, guided transitions from suite to ceremony and from cocktails to dinner, balancing scale and open views. White Blossom Decoration styled white florals and greens with terracotta and glass for a grounded palette. The celebration was photographed by Tom Sienna, one of the talented wedding photographers in Provence, who captured the play of textures, light, and quiet gestures as evening settled over the lawns. Château Pimo closed the day with soft music and the scent of roses in the air.
