Château de Nandy is a 17th-century family-owned château in Nandy, Seine-et-Marne, about 40 km from Paris and close to Melun. It is hired exclusively for seminars, study days, galas, weddings and other receptions. The official site states that its rooms take business meetings from 60 to more than 180 seated guests, and a tent in the 27-hectare park serves larger events.
Seminars and company events
The château welcomes seminars, study days, year-end parties and team building, and the site is fully privatized for the event to keep it quiet and discreet. The listed formats are working meetings, product presentations, private views, Olympic-style team games, general assemblies and gala evenings. A flip chart and a video projector are provided, and pens on request. For a study day, the château proposes a morning break, an afternoon break and a lunch. The ground floor offers 225 m² in three salons and a hall, and the park of 27 hectares with woods suits incentive activities.
Weddings and receptions
The château is closed to other visitors on the day of a wedding and can also be kept for the brunch the next day. The organizers may enter the venue before the big day to prepare the decoration or a secular ceremony near the pond or inside the château. The hire covers exclusive use of the ground floor, the catering office, the cloakroom and the walled park. Staff guard the entrance and the private car park. The château is lit in the evening, and torches can be set along the drive. Fireworks are allowed with the town hall's approval.
