Preparing Our Chateau For The Wedding Season

With 70 weddings ahead of us, we had to prepare the chateau so these dream weddings can become a reality! What kind of wedding theme would you have at The Chateau De Lesigny?
Congratulations and thank you Deena & Julian, Sabrina & Flavien for creating memories with us! A special thank you to Kelsey & Romain for sharing their wedding video by @fredriccassel_officiel.
Most of the chateau domain needs renovation, so we are investing everything we have into making the property thrive. Being Americans in France, we are learning more about french culture and developing new skills along the way!
As a UC Berkeley graduate in Agriculture (Daphne), and a US Air Force Veteran/ Kinesiologist (Ian), we share a love for challenges and adventure. We have so much ahead of us, and we are excited to share the experience with you!

Your Papi picked the right person to continue to help his Dancer thrive. I’m sure he’d be very proud of all your hard work. As always I look forward to more videos! ❤️

[@TheBeauChateau]

You are so sweet for saying that 😊 Thank you for your support!

[@daniellemgodfrey]

@@TheBeauChateau he is there with you. He won’t leave his dancer. That’s his forever home

[@shelleypoole6415]

Wow, 70 weddings is a lot. I can tell you love what you do and put your love into everything.

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you! 70 is enough to keep us on our toes 😉

[@angelamoreno5914]

It's literally a fairy tale setting! To own this historical gem and be able to share it with ppl on their special day is something your grandfather would be so proud of. You're such a beautiful person inside out, it's as if this chateau was calling for an owner like you. I'm new on your channel and thoroughly enjoy every video that I've watched. I go back to your older ones to catch up on information about you and this stunning building. The wedding venues were beautifully decorated and dressing the entrance with flowers and trimming the trees to welcome your guests on that long and beautiful driveway, was a breathtaking sight indeed! Wow!

[@TheBeauChateau]

You are so kind 🥰 That means so much to us! I’m so happy you’re enjoying following along this journey and we can’t wait to share more with you!

[@Francis-kw9ui]

Love the red flowers in the flower boxes. What a beautiful bride.

[@katehobbs2008]

I was amused to hear Keanu call the meadow a prairie 😁😁😁

[@IRSA1]

Absolutely beautiful filming, flowing effortlessly to enhance the beauty of the chateau and its setting. I wish my own wedding had taken place there !

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you! We also host events 😉

[@nancyjohnson50]

What an absolutely stunning venue! It is what dreams are made of. It is the most beautiful place for a wedding!

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you, Nancy! We couldn’t agree more 😊

[@freegedankenzurbaukunst5613]

It is what dreams are made of ..... Dust . 😱😱😱Never ever says that . Haven't you seen the Maltese Falcon . The Maltese Falcon turns out to be a fake, and Brigid turns out to be the murderer of Miles Archer.

[@lakelili]

Wow! 70 weddings this Season! What a fabulous response and testament to the services you offer. Congrats!

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you! Weddings are a lot of work, but we love seeing the happy couples at the end of their special day 😊

[@---ks7in]

Man! It looks like a place straight out of a movie set! Planting the flowers, and maintaining the chateau must be so exhausting! Just looking at you guys makes me tired lol! But it's beautiful, I bet the people who came here to have their wedding must have been so happy and it will be so memorable! You guys did a fantastic job! I can't wait to see more videos! I'm so excited!

[@nicz051]

the cinematography, story telling and the quality of ur videos are remarkable! im so happy im one of the first followers before this channel blows up! the chateau is just magical

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you so much! We are so happy you’ve subscribed! 😊

[@kathyevans2968]

Everything you are both doing is beautiful, respectful and somewhat magical... I keep thinking how proud your grandfather would be. All your hard work is paying off, so I hope you get time to enjoy this special journey amidst the toil! Thank you for sharing this. X

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you, Kathy! That is so sweet of you 😊 The chateau is a continuous reminder of my grandfathers love and hard work.

[@shannonstone2690]

I literally got choked up watching that! The music, the gorgeous wedding photos, the unbelievable setting the chateau provides for those lucky peoples’ big days…. Beautiful! It’s also so sweet to see how hard you work to make the chateau and grounds as perfect as possible. It’s very obvious this isn’t just a business for you both! ❤️❤️

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you, Shannon! Your kind words mean a lot to us 😊 viewers like you keep us motivated to make more fun videos!

[@Lisa-sp5if]

Also, you both are excellent at editing and putting a story together… It’s like you’ve been doing this for years!

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you so much! Ian really appreciates you saying that because he is doing all the video/ editing for our channel and he is learning to do this as he goes. Now he thinks he should have went to film school instead of get a degree in Kinesiology 😆

[@rockingbird2246]

Hello you two brave adventurers, it is a delight to see that you manage to motivate people to trust you to prepare this day so important for them. Of course, this setting is a fairy tale for their most important day. But the backdrop is only the backdrop, you two brave ones fill the backdrop with life. Your grandfather would be very proud of you to have found such worthy successors. I would wet my pants in the face of the facts. I wish you further that you always have a hand's breadth of water under the keel. I look forward to more videos. Greetings from the Baltic coast in Germany

[@patriciaheath1894]

Love the work you both are putting into the château. The weddings look wonderful. Cheers from Camarillo, CA🌺🌺🌺

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you! 🥰

[@lauraturner1290]

I love the gentleness of your commentary. This is a gorgeous place.

[@CathyMiller0711]

Such a beautiful wedding venue. It's obvious you are working really hard!

[@monalingan9523]

What a beautiful venue for a wedding. I think your grandfather, as well as your family are all very proud of you and Ian for taking on the château. What an incredible family legacy.

[@fredscott1199]

What a beautiful home to have a wedding! You have both done an excellent job! Congratulations to you both on a successful wedding season! All my best wishes from Nashville, Tennessee!

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you for your encouragement 😊

[@dalee.taylor2283]

CONGRATS! Great video production and serene v/o. We too have 70 weddings this year, but in the catering end of things. These are primarily local "barn venues" from old & rustic to new & industrial-look, along with a smattering of tent destinations at lakeside cottages. We host a few events on our property and possibly more in 2024 as '23 is booked for off-site work. Enjoy the summer!! We truly understand & appreciate the dedication, hard work & effort - notwithstanding the gracious patience that goes with hosting weddings and events. The trust & friendships that develop in this vendor-centric industry are incredible and generational. "Love that has a ring to it!"

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you for watching! It is hard work, but every wedding shares the task with many family and friends. It is such a pleasure to host a space for making memories 😊

[@claudiamann7111]

So wonderful that you are able to do so many weddings this year. The grounds are lovely and what a beautiful bridge with all the flowers. Irrigation was definitely needed.

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you! We still need to establish irrigation for the large grass sections because the summers have been dry the last few years.

[@dumitriudaniela]

so much BEAUTY. And i love how you both are young and yet embarked on such a path which needs a lot of work, but it must feel so satisfactory. Oh, and, i would choose an 18th century theme, with a Bridgerton twist. Love, love your beautiful videos, i wish this one was longer

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you! A Bridgerton themed wedding would be so fun! 😄

[@lisamarutz9772]

I can’t believe just how beautiful your setting is, lucky couples indeed 🌞🥂💛

Stunning 🤩I’m enthralled , such a tribute your hard work! Would you consider doing an episode on the secrets of the chateau? Passages etc. I just love what we don’t see 🦋

[@TheBeauChateau]

Yes, we would love to include more of the history of the chateau. We will likely do a video specifically for that ☺️

[@ccoeurjoli]

Merci ! Très jolie vidéo ! De bien jolies idées de décorations ! Que d’heures de travail méticuleux pour préparer le château à ces événements. Pour une décoration extérieure visible de loin, j’imagine des boucles et noeuds de grands métrages de tulle 🤩 avec du lierre et, suivant la saison, de grosses fleurs (hortensias, tournesols 🌻, anthuriums, bouquets de grosses roses ou chrysanthèmes ou gypsophiles….) Bravo pour le montage vidéo 👍🏻 !! À bientôt ! 🌸🌸🌸

[@mccmo]

Ian how did you learn to edit like this so well? Super high quality work. Just binged all 4 videos and can’t wait for the next upload

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you, Mark! That really puts a smile on my face 🤓I played with iMovie in high school when making skateboard videos with my buddies. Over the years I would make little gopro edits for the fun of it. When I purchased my Sony A7iii recently, I started going to KZbin to learn more. I learned a lot from Parker Walbeck’s training course and I watch plenty of Casey Neistat and Peter McKinnon videos. Everytime we have a movie or TV show being filmed here at the chateau, I find the camera man and start picking his brain for answers. I’m really trying to make every new video a learning experience for the next. If our channel continues to grow then I will gladly upgrade my gear and do my best to make it worth your watch 👍

[@mccmo]

This is exceptional in so many ways. A joy to watch……almost a meditation…..

[@stephaniewaters4931]

What a glorious wedding venue! Incredible!❤

[@uscitizen898]

If I was getting married there, I'd choose a classically styled decor theme. The colors would be pink and white and then......I'd let you decorate as you'd see fit! Everything is gorgeous there even without any added decor! The setting alone is enough to say "gorgeous/beautiful/exquisite"! Happy to have found your channel and look forward to many more episodes you'll share.

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you for sharing! We have seen a wedding with pink and white decor and it was very sweet! They actually rented couches for the dining space and had a structure built to drape white curtains around the seating arrangements. Hard to describe via text, but it was very pretty! We would recommend creating something similar but on the moat terraces because the view out there is beautiful at sunset 😊 Thank you for subscribing to our channel!

[@loribragg2947]

My fiance is considerably younger than me, so I'd probably choose a Harold & Maude theme, which means we'd be driving off into the sunset in a Volkswagen Beetle with a tree sticking out of the sun roof or a sports car slash hearse. 😂 Thanks for posting some photos of the weddings; I always enjoy watching other people's creativity. As a person who does a LOT of gardening, I can appreciate the need to round up help planting all those flowers.

[@TheBeauChateau]

We had a classic VW Beetle for one of our weddings this year! 😄 It was actually really nice, they covered the luggage rack in beautiful flowers… Thank you for sharing!

[@pmm3112]

The chateau is stunning! It must be a magical setting for a wedding or any party. I was curious to know if the growth of vegetation on the walls of the moat and the chateau's foundation along the moat compromise the integrity of the structures? Do you have to trim or pull out the plants and trees which grow out of the spaces between the stones?

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you for watching! Yes, we need to clear the moat walls again. It was done in 2017, but it grows back so fast! It is done by rappelling off the side and pulling the roots out, so we need to get Ian a harness and make a video of the process 😉

[@susiebohrer3595]

Your videography, sound and editing is superb! Very professional.

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you very much! Ian really appreciates you saying that because it is only himself who films/edits our videos ☺️

💕Beautiful💕On the inner walls of your moat you have plants growing which should be removed before the roots damage the brickwork💕Nice day or two in a boat lowering the plants into the boat will stop them going into the water💕

[@TheBeauChateau]

Thank you for watching! We will be cleaning the moat walls again soon. The last time it was done was in 2017 and the workers used rappelling gear to hang off the sides so they could cut off the trees and carefully remove the roots. We will get a harness for Ian and make a video for people to see how it goes 😊
