a note from the bride & groom
Welcome to our wedding website! Below you will find information and some resources that we will continue to update to help you plan your trip, should you be able to join us in June.
We, of course, understand that traveling to Provence may not be possible for everyone we love. If you know for certain that you are unable to attend, kindly send early regrets in the RSVP section below to help us plan.
The Ceremony and Reception will be adults only.
Should you choose to travel with your children (who you know we love dearly!), we can recommend multiple sources for childcare so you may fully enjoy our wedding celebration.
Thank you for loving us!

getting to lourmarin
We find the easiest way to travel from the United States to Lourmarin is to fly directly into Paris. From there, it is a 3 hour high-speed train ride to the city of Aix-en-Provence (train tickets can be booked as early as 3 months in advance). From Aix-en-Provence, you can take a taxi from the train station or rent a car should you plan on exploring other towns in Provence. Upon arrival, you will find Lourmarin to be a very walkable and picturesque village. Of course, there are many other ways to travel to the region depending on your plans before and after our celebration.
Friendly reminder to check your passports and renew with plenty of time, if needed!
