Popular spaces for your Wedding on the French Riviera
Villas for Rent for Weddings in the South of France
Renting a villa for a wedding on the French Riviera is a top choice for many couples. These private venues offer outdoor spaces, pools, terraces, gardens and often on-site accommodation for guests.
Provençal Estates and Countryside Venues
If you’re planning a nature-inspired wedding, Provence-style estates, vineyards and country houses are ideal. These venues offer large outdoor areas, shaded spots and an authentic setting for a rustic or elegant garden wedding.
Restaurants with Sea View for Private Hire
Some Riviera restaurants can be fully or partially privatised for weddings. They offer a practical solution for hosting both your reception dinner and party—with a direct sea view in locations like Cannes, Villefranche-sur-Mer or Saint-Tropez.
Gardens and Terraces for Outdoor Ceremonies
For an outdoor wedding ceremony, you can rent a garden or terrace. These venues are ideal for a civil or symbolic ceremony, cocktail reception or pre-dinner gathering, and can often be combined with a nearby villa or indoor space.
Why Get Married on the French Riviera?
A Top Wedding Destination in France
The French Riviera is one of the most sought-after regions for weddings, both for local couples and international guests. Its mild climate, great accessibility and wide selection of venues make it ideal for planning a wedding.
Sunny, Stable Weather for Outdoor Weddings
Thanks to its Mediterranean climate, the South of France offers ideal conditions for outdoor weddings from May to October. Renting an open-air venue on the French Riviera means fewer weather risks and more comfort for your guests.
A Wide Range of Wedding-Ready Venues
Whether you’re looking for a villa to rent for a wedding, a garden estate, or a restaurant with a terrace and sea view, the Riviera has countless venues fully equipped to host ceremonies and receptions.
Easy Access for Wedding Guests
Nice International Airport, high-speed trains and a wide range of accommodation options make it easy to welcome guests from all over France and abroad. You can easily plan a wedding in Cannes, Nice, Antibes or the nearby countryside.
How to Choose the Right Wedding Venue on the French Riviera?
Check the Venue Capacity
Before booking, make sure the venue can comfortably host your number of guests. Some estates are perfect for small weddings of 30–50 people, while others can accommodate over 200 guests.
Review What’s Included in the Rental
Ask for a full list of what’s included: furniture, tents, lighting, catering area, parking, security, guest rooms. This helps avoid extra costs and compare options more easily.
Consider Accessibility and Location
Choose a venue that’s easy for guests to reach—close to an airport, train station or main road. A wedding venue in Nice, Cannes or Mougins is more accessible than a remote countryside location.
Be Aware of Music and Timing Restrictions
Some venues on the French Riviera have music curfews or noise limits. Make sure your chosen venue allows music, dancing or late-night celebrations if that’s part of your plan.
Tips for Planning a Successful Wedding on the French Riviera
Book Several Months in Advance
Wedding venues on the French Riviera are in high demand, especially between May and September. It’s best to book your venue 6 to 12 months in advance, especially for popular dates like Saturdays or holidays.
Work with Local Wedding Vendors
Photographers, caterers, florists, DJs… The region is full of professionals used to working on weddings. Hiring local experts ensures a smooth event adapted to the Southern French environment.
Have a Backup Plan for Weather
Even in this sunny region, weather can be unpredictable. If you’re planning an outdoor ceremony or dinner, make sure to have a covered alternative (tent, pergola, adjacent room).
Plan for Guest Logistics
Offer a list of nearby accommodations, organise shuttles if needed, and provide clear signage if the venue is remote. These details improve your guests’ experience and reduce last-minute stress.
