About This Venue
A private Louis XVI theatre within a moated Historic Monument
Domaine de Verderonne is a 30-hectare historic estate in the Oise, an hour north of Paris. The grounds centre on a flowered garden and greenhouse, a private 18th-century theatre used as a dancefloor until 4am, and a moated château with woodland and wildlife. It hosts full-privatisation weddings for up to 180 guests, with 45 people sleeping on-site across 15 bedrooms.
The Venue History
16th, 17th, and 18th centuries · Renaissance château with 17th and 18th century additions
The name Verderonne first appears in 1060 in a royal diploma where Philippe I ceded his rights over the lands to the abbey of Saint-Lucien de Beauvais. In the 13th century, the seigneury entered the prestigious house of Villers-Saint-Paul. In 1586, Gilles de l'Aubépine acquired the domain and erected a château on the medieval ruins, immortalized by an engraving by Israël Silvestre. His grandson Claude, loyal to the monarchy during the Fronde, saw the land elevated to a marquisat. Étienne-Louis, marquis de Beaucourt, gave the château its definitive appearance in 1725. In 1733, Saint-Simon visited his cousins there. In 1738, the ruined marquis sold Verderonne to the Comte d'Andlau, who hosted Marie-Henriette de Polastron, lady-in-waiting to the daughters of France. Their son Henri-Antoine d'Andlau married Geneviève Helvétius, daughter of the famous Enlightenment philosopher. In the gardens of Verderonne, new ideas and secrets from the circle of Marie-Antoinette were shared. In 1884, the domain was sold by General d'Andlau to a Parisian banker, M. Baudrier. After decades of neglect beginning in the 1960s, the current owners are restoring the estate.

Verderonne, Oise, France
Domaine de Verderonne is a private estate with layers of history still visible across the grounds. A tended flower garden and greenhouse sit an hour north of Paris, leading guests to the estate's outer buildings. The Grange comes first, its 400-year-old wooden beams giving the room real height and a sense of grandeur. From there, the 18th-century theatre opens up for weddings as a dancefloor that runs until 4am.

Arrival & welcome
Guests arrive over the afternoon and settle in. Many couples host a relaxed welcome dinner or drinks the evening before, so everyone is together before the day itself.
The wedding day
Ceremony, photographs, and reception typically run across the afternoon into the evening, followed by dancing and celebrations late into the night.
Farewell brunch
A slower morning together, often with a farewell brunch, before guests depart over the course of the day.
