A Countryside Wedding?
Le Manoir des Érables – Hôtellerie Champêtre, for example, suggests a few wedding options including one that particularly caught our attention: Imagine...
A Cruise Wedding at dusk or at dawn with a magnificent view of the St-Lawrence river and the Île-aux-Grues Archipelago. The vows will be pronounced either on a boat or on a small private island under a marquee raised for the event. Enjoy the spectacular countryside view with a cocktail in your hand before savouring exquisite cuisine prepared by Martin Boucher, the Chef from Manoir des Érables – Hôtellerie Champêtre. Then enjoy the night filled with sweet dreams. It is also possible to proceed with the ceremony, the cocktail and then the meal on the boat. However, don’t forget that the rhythm here is dictated by the tides, so it is preferable to enquire about its occurrence!
The reputation of the Hôtel La Sapinière – Hôtellerie Champêtre remains intact. To supplement the exceptional site in which it is situated, this hotel also has reputable gastronomy. The Chef, Jocelyn Lemieux, prepares dishes that are each as exquisite as the others. Here, there is a saying that everything is possible and evidently, this wedding dream is as romantic as can be: A small boat decorated with delicate fabric and flowers, in which the future weds are blessed by the priest, the pastor, the rabbi, … The witnesses are also in small-decorated boats situated on both sides. Then the cocktail is taken on the terrace by the lake where torches will later enlighten the scene. The release of doves will take place to delightfully crown it all.
L’Auberge des Gallant - Hôtellerie Champêtre is amongst these Country Inns where weddings can take on all distinctive forms. The couple arrive in a sleigh at nightfall pulled by white horses. Twenty torches enlighten their passage as the guests give them a warm greeting. Off the sleigh, the ceremony takes place outside within the sparkling torchlights that reflect on the intact snow. Then, the newlyweds and guests will discover the pleasurable heat of a fireplace and fine cuisine. Also, in summer, the "Garden Party". The Auberge des Gallant has an exceptional garden in flower: ceremony in late morning, cocktail and meal on live classical music. Alternatively, choose a Medieval Wedding with harp, zither, costumes, white horses and a barouche.
L’Auberge Lac-à-l’Eau-Claire – Hôtellerie Champêtre , a resort that is situated in a breathtaking scenery. In summer as in winter, weddings are celebrated. A ceremony followed by various activities, volleyball tournament, tennis, rally, sailing. The other great attraction of this exceptional site derives from its large open space. The ceremony takes place in the morning, then everyone puts on his (her) bathing suit before meeting on the beach for a huge barbecue. Singing and dancing like in the south and the night ends with grand fireworks on the lake. A memorable experience.
And, of course, each region and every Hôtellerie Champêtre/Québec Resorts’ establishment suggest ideas for receptions and various wedding styles... So, for further evidence, do not hesitate to contact them.
