We just had our dream wedding at Chateau du Puits es Pratx in the second weekend of September and could not recommend it more highly. It is not an exaggeration to say that our experience was perfect in every way. Firstly, the venue is absolutely stunning and we felt like we were getting married on a film set - a cross between Mumma Mia and Beauty and the Beast. The distinctive blue shutters, beautiful buildings and idyllic gardens made for the perfect place to get married. The courtyard where we had our banquet and the gardens where we had our ceremony were both idyllic, as were all the other distinct spaces dotted around the grounds. There are loads of lovely little touches around the premises and if Instagrammable moments are your thing, then you'd be spoilt for choice here. Indoors there are giant wine barrels that are part of the venue's history as a vineyard and the bar is made up of a massive grape press. One of the best parts of the weekend was the five star hospitality from Lily, Luke, Stephanie, Liam, Tim, Sasha and the rest of the team (sorry for any names we have missed!), which was second to none. The service was incredibly friendly, warm and relaxed and all the guests were amazed that Lily and the team all seemed to have memorised every single guest's name (63 in total) within a couple of hours of being there! The vibe was very welcoming and it felt almost like we were staying with close family or friends rather than at a third party venue. Everyone felt fully at home and I don't think I've ever had such a special feeling staying somewhere in my life. Special mention to Lily, the main organiser, who was our first point of contact throughout the process. Lily is an excellent communicator, very friendly, always responded quickly to all of our messages and genuinely cares. She's also a top notch organiser and she took away a lot of the stress of putting together a big event. Lily deserves an award to be honest. Sasha's flowers also deserve a special mention - the florals were absolutely stunning and we couldn't quite believe the high standard. There were so many beautiful flower arrangements everywhere - from beautiful, tall vases, to foliage table runners and these awesome big, glass bowls that looked like they had living forests in them. I've never seen better florals at any other wedding in my life and we also got a lot for the money we paid, so they were excellent value to boot! The food and drink were consistently delicious and we enjoyed all of our meals over the course of the weekend - with some very special, local wines to wash everything down with. The rooms were lovely and clean and the way the rooms were mostly arranged around a central courtyard made the whole event feel very communal and made for some lovely moments waving good morning to people as they opened their shutters in the morning. Everyone also loved the heated pool as well and it made for a brilliant focal point on the Sunday where we all enjoyed a pool pa
