Questions & answers

Let's celebrate!

Dress code: cocktail

Think dressy and elegant. Cocktail dresses, suits, or smart separates. Skip jeans and white dresses. Stylish white trainers are welcome.

Dietary Restrictions

If you have any dietary restrictions, don't worry, we've got you covered! Just let us know through the RSVP form.

Kids

Kids are welcome! Please remember to include them in your RSVP. There's a dedicated question for this. The Domaine offers beautiful green spaces near the venue where children can play, but please be aware that there is no babysitter on site, and both a pool and a river are nearby, so a touch of extra supervision will be needed.

Gifts

Your presence is the best gift we could ask for, and we're thrilled you'll be there.
If you want to add something personal, a handwritten card would mean the world to us. We’ll have a writing station at the venue with cards, envelopes, and pens, so you can leave us a note.
If you have another idea in mind, we'd prefer something light and non-physical, as we’ll be flying back to San Francisco after the wedding.

Don't speak french?

No worries! All speeches and menus will be available in both languages, so no one misses a thing. When traveling to the venue, we also recommend downloading French in the Google Translate app. It can be handy for reading signs or simple conversations.
