Le Foulon, a wedding venue in the South of France
This June's wedding took place at Le Foulon, a beautiful, large country house with 13 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. It's located about a 30-45 minute drive from Nice airport, in the French commune of Gréolières.
Although near to Nice and the Côte d'Azur, Le Foulon is flanked by the spectacular mountainous countryside of the Alps, and when you're there you really do feel like you're isolated in the beautiful French countryside. For this English wedding, most of the guests came from Kent in the UK, while the bride and groom, who live in France, had no trouble finding excellent local suppliers for flowers, hair and make-up for the guests.
AN IDEAL LOCATION FOR WEDDING PHOTOS
The outdoor space at Le Foulon is perfect for a wedding ceremony, as it is partially shaded by trees and positioned so that the sun is not in the way. For the evening shoot, we used a nearby field to take advantage of the sun's directional light before it dipped below the towering cliffs of the Alps that line the site in the distance.
