Planning a wedding in Occitanie
Occitanie suits a relaxed country wedding in the south of France: a wine estate in the Languedoc, a stone mas near Uzès or a manor in the Gers, with long dinners outside. It stretches from the Mediterranean to the Pyrenees, with Toulouse and Montpellier as gateways.
When to marry
May, June and September are the favoured months, and early October often stays warm. On the Mediterranean side, July and August are very hot inland, so evening ceremonies and shaded terraces matter. The grape harvest keeps wine estates busy from late August into the autumn.
Getting guests there
Toulouse-Blagnac and Montpellier have the most flights, and smaller airports such as Carcassonne, Béziers, Perpignan, Nîmes and Rodez add more routes. TGVs from Paris reach Nîmes and Montpellier, and high-speed trains from Barcelona run to Perpignan and Montpellier. Most venues are in the countryside, so plan transfers.
Domaines, mas and châteaux
Wine estates (domaines) of the Languedoc with cellars, courtyards and terraces among the vines; stone mas and bastides in the Gard around Uzès and the Pont du Gard; country houses in the Gers; châteaux near Carcassonne and the Canal du Midi. Many estates have rooms or gîtes for guests.
The legal side
A civil marriage in France takes place at the town hall of a commune where one partner lives, or where a parent lives. Couples from abroad usually marry legally at home first, then hold a symbolic or religious ceremony at the venue.

How are these venues chosen and ordered?
By documented renown first, then by how fully each venue is documented (photographs, rooms, capacities), never by payment: venues do not pay to appear and the guide takes no commission. How we select venues.
Where can you get married in Occitanie?
In the wine estates of the Languedoc between Montpellier, Béziers and Carcassonne, in the Gard around Uzès, in the Gers countryside near Toulouse, or in the foothills of the Pyrenees. Each suits a country wedding with guests staying nearby.
When is the best time for a wedding in the Languedoc?
May, June and September offer warm days without the peak heat. July and August are very hot inland, so if you marry then, choose an evening ceremony and a venue with shade. Early October can still be mild.
Which airport is best for a wedding in the south-west of France?
Toulouse-Blagnac suits the Gers, the Toulouse area and the Pyrenees; Montpellier suits the Languedoc and the Gard. Carcassonne, Béziers, Perpignan and Nîmes have smaller airports, and Nîmes and Montpellier have TGV stations.
