La Ferme de Saint-Humbert hosts wedding receptions, day-after brunches, baptisms, communions and birthdays, with the meal cooked and served by the house. It has two reception halls, of 200 m² and 250 m², and a large number of beds, so that most guests can stay the night. The farm stands at 8 rue du Quesnoy in Salesches, a village in the Nord department.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are the main business. Each hall is sold with a wedding menu: the team sets up the room on the Friday afternoon, with white tablecloths and napkins, and the couple can come in from 3 p.m. on Friday to decorate. Service on Saturday runs until 5 a.m. The house also offers a drinks reception, a traditional dinner menu, a day-after brunch menu and a children's menu, with menus published for 2027 and 2028.
The garden can host the ceremony and the drinks reception before guests move into the hall. Fireworks, confetti cannons and firecrackers are not allowed. White chair covers can be hired.
Outside weddings, the farm hosts family events through the year, with a separate menu for baptisms, communions and birthdays.
Rooms and capacities
The Saint Quinibert hall covers 200 m². Wedding bookings there start at 120 adult guests.
La Grange Dimière, the former tithe barn, covers 250 m². Its wedding package includes 49 beds in 12 bedrooms on three levels for the Saturday night, with breakfast for 49 on Sunday morning, bed linen and cleaning. Wedding bookings there start at 80 adult guests, and the party can also sleep on site from Friday evening.
The site does not publish a maximum seated capacity for either hall.
Accommodation
Accommodation is the strong point of the farm and allows a wedding weekend for a large group.
The Grange Dimière sleeps 49 in 12 bedrooms: most have three to seven single beds, and one has a double bed. The honeymoon suite is set in the old dovecote, with linen and cleaning included.
Five holiday cottages are let from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon. Cottage 4550, for example, sleeps eight in three bedrooms and has a table for 12, with a shower room on each floor.
Eleven guest rooms complete the offer. Room 1 sleeps four in two double beds, with its own shower room and toilet, linen and cleaning included.
Ten bungalows sleep six each in three bedrooms, with a shower room and toilet. They are for sleeping only; no meals can be taken inside.
Catering
Catering is in-house. The farm prepares and serves the drinks reception, the wedding dinner and the day-after meal, and sets the tables. Menus for weddings, family events and children are published on the official site. Ask the team which menus suit your group size and date.
History and setting
The farm is set in open countryside, with gardens used for ceremonies and drinks. Its reception halls are named after Saint Quinibert and after the tithe barn, the building where a parish once stored the tenth of the harvest owed to the church. The dovecote now holds the honeymoon suite.
Getting there
The farm is at 8 rue du Quesnoy, 59218 Salesches, in the Nord department, close to the town of Le Quesnoy. Parking is on site. Guests coming from further away can stay over from Friday evening in the Grange Dimière.
