Venue Setting
The Boulevards occupy a unique place in Parisian geography. Serving as the historic demarcation between the center’s bourgeois neighborhoods and their popular suburbs, they have now hyphenated: a crossroads at the heart of the capital’s cultures. Only a few meters from the Poissonnière metro, we find the Bourse neighborhood and its passages, Sentier and its formidable pool of entrepreneurs, Montmartre and its theatres, Poissonnière and its hip restaurants, and Strasbourg Saint-Denis with its insomniac streets. The Parisian life forever infuses the Grand Boulevards with energy.
And so it is here, in an impressive building sitting slightly askew from the bustle, that, following the success of the Grand Pigalle, the Experimental Group decided to open its second Parisian hotel: l’Hôtel des Grands Boulevards. This building, one of only two that stands apart from the street, was built shortly after the French Revolution and is accessible only through a long entry that maintains its secretive character.
On the main floor is the Restaurant, featuring a menu designed in collaboration with Giovanni Passerini – a celebrated chef in the new Parisian gastronomic scene – and that revisits the great classics of French-Italian country cuisine. One delight in the myriad products served without artifice and the dishes to be shared in the covered courtyard and cocktail bar. Upon the floors, there are 50 rooms spaciously distributed and two hidden terraces. For the décor, designer Dorothée Meilichzon drew inspiration from the building’s origins and history, but without falling into the expected clichés of the Louis XVI style.

If you’re getting married in France and planning a one-day wedding, we say this with love: absolutely not. We strongly encourage that you do it the French way. Slow, stylish, and generously extended to make guests feel like they have effortlessly entered into a long and glamorous French holiday film full of aisles, apéritifs, and entire estates you'll casually pretend you own. You did not fly everyone across the ocean for a quick ceremony and a polite glass of champagne. That’s not a wedding, that’s a layover with a dress code.
And that’s exactly where it connects to the Holiday: VR Summer Club Collection ☀️🦢 , a return to the golden age of travel, when people didn’t just visit a place, they stayed awhile. These French estates function like their own modern-day summer clubs: guests arrive, settle in, dress for dinner, and move through the weekend at an unhurried pace, with everything happening in one place and no real reason to leave.
The wedding weekend trend is tailor-made for France because it mirrors how the country already lives and celebrates. Instead of a single-day event, it becomes a full French film holiday escape: welcome drinks that turn into long apéritif evenings, dinners that stretch late and mornings that begin over coffee in the courtyard.The French have always had a certain advantage when it comes to weddings. Not simply the scenery, though a Riviera terrace above the Mediterranean or a château garden drawn by André Le Nôtre certainly helps. In this guide, we gathered the best wedding venues in France that consider everything; places capable of hosting anything from an intimate micro-wedding to a large estates perfect wedding weekend takeovers (guest list: ambitious).Très chic. Because weddings in France don’t just happen.. they oui-kend. 🍾
