Wedding in
Normandy
Pick a venue first. Photographers, planners, florists slot around it. We do the shortlisting for you.
Normandy is green cliffs and apple orchards and the D-Day beaches and medieval abbeys and a light that's so soft and specific that painters have spent centuries trying to capture it. The landscape is rolling and honest, the food is butter and cream, and the architecture is Norman and substantial.
Weddings cluster around May and June and September and October. July and August are hot and crowded. The beaches offer coastal ceremony options. The countryside offers pastoral alternatives. The restaurants are excellent—butter is apparently the answer to every culinary question. The local cider is outstanding. The light in May is the reason painters moved here. The region is compact enough to explore but large enough to contain proper landscape.
