When planning your wedding, it is natural to focus first on the ceremony, the venue for the cocktail party and the evening. Then one quickly projects oneself in the decoration, the furniture, the meal, the guest list, the clothes…. But what about the photos and especially THE photo spot? The one that will embellish the memories, that will bring originality to the color or black and white images that we will scroll through the albums or on the screens!
A highlight of the wedding day: the couple’s photo session. The “reunion” face to face before or after the ceremony…, before the evening, a must. They allow you to take a breather, recover your spirits, assimilate before leaving in the whirlwind of the party. Between our century-old walls, under the old barn or in our flowered or leaf-filled alleys, in all seasons the decor is assured.

Let’s not forget the eye of the wedding photographer, this professional and artist who will put poetry, sensitivity and originality to immortalise your moments, your happiness, this magnificent milestone in your life! We know the best ones and recommend them to you on request.
You are in charge of organizing conferences, department parties or other meetings of employees or customers and you wonder about the best options to consider in this period of social distancing? Between events involving several dozen or hundreds of employees and teleworking, there are many possibilities available to you.
After weeks of confinement which imposed for some people teleworking or longer distances between workstations, meetings on small screens, bringing your employees closer together is essential for this new season!
A new way of working is coming into place, with many advantages, but the importance of contact and the maintenance of human links must not be neglected.
The rules of the game may have changed, but “the round” hasn’t disappeared and there are many opportunities to get together.
# outdoor
Favour the use of outdoor spaces for most of the work or recreational program, if time permits, but not only. Fresh air is good for the head and body, and this is possible in all weathers, with the right equipment. Good news, the Indian summer in Switzerland has been a reality for several years, the wedding specialists that we are have noticed it by organizing aperitifs on our terrace until November.
A teambuilding activity in our gardens, a picnic in the park in small groups scattered throughout our vast estate, a guided tour of the sculptures & gardens in small numbers, a wine tasting in the courtyard of the Château or in our historic cellar, workshops on our terraces under our large sunshades and tents, …
# creativity and novelty in activities
Imagining new ways to find each other, to exchange and to recreate links while keeping the distance. We have thought about new cohesion activities that can take place outside in most cases, but also inside, while respecting social distances.
Gather together but keep your distance. Creation of a plant terrarium, a “back to basics” activity proposed by Tiny Garden
Private cellar of the Château reserved for tastings of the wines of the Domain
Private cellar of the Château reserved for tastings of the wines of the Domain
# space and natural airing
Sufficient space in height and width. 1000 m2 of rooms, including very large ones that can accommodate small groups with social distancing. We remain flexible in the spaces granted, adapting to your requirements. All our rooms have many windows that can be opened, the air conditioning is only turned on if the client wishes.
Moreover, we extend our offer by proposing spaces adjoining the Château, such as the two historical cellars. The possibilities are therefore infinite and for all budgets.
Apollo room – conference
New spaces available for your events. The vast historical cellar of the Château, among others.
# hygiene and privatization of the premises
A maximum of two simultaneous events with separate entrances, separate bathrooms and changing rooms and fully private areas. As far as possible, we guarantee exclusivity of the premises, and our high standard of cleanliness has always been a priority.
Our building is never accessible to the public, so the traceability of people is guaranteed.
New game rules
Confinement may have been perceived as a moment of pause for some. For event workers like us, it represents a period of evolution and learning. The opportunity to think about other ways to organize meetings, parties, events of all kinds. The opportunity to reinvent ourselves.
# small groups
Imagine smaller gatherings, divide a large group into several sessions on consecutive days with the same concept: we will adapt our offer to your own needs. We can guarantee the current social distancing for conferences of up to 70 people without masks and up to 100 people in round tables in the same room. We adapt our rates to small groups, with no obligation to pay a privatization fee and offering competitive per person rates even in the evening.
Iris room for banquet from 30 people
# last minute and organisational flexibility
Planning an event in a very short period of time thanks to our outstanding organizational support is possible! We put you in contact with the best service providers and offer last minute postponing possibilities free of charge.
# an adapted F&B
Favour individual dishes while maintaining conviviality for this get-togethers. Our Terroir in individual tins will delight the palates of your guests. A selection of local products, three themes to take away in our gardens in small groups, to be enjoyed on our terrace or in one of our rooms while maintaining social distance. A plate service remains relevant in the respect of the sanitary constraints.

# protection accessories
Provide masks, why not personalized for the occasion, in fabric or plexi, and bottles of personal sanitisers.
Like many event professionals around the world, we have witnessed the disruptions associated with the epidemic. The possibility of resuming events in Switzerland for up to 300 people at the beginning of June was a relief for us, but it also brought us new constraints linked to sanitary imperatives, but also to those of our clients. As usual, we remain very flexible and attentive to your requirements. We know how to be reactive and creative, tell us about your project and we will make you our best offer.
Une magnifique journée de juillet, des mariés plein de complicité et de tendresse, une famille présente et aimante! Découvrez les beaux souvenirs du 25 juillet 2020!
Who among you hasn’t asked these questions when first thinking about their future wedding dress?
But do you know what a wedding dress means by the way?
For a very long time, women didn’t have a specific dress, they simply wore their most beautiful dress when they got married, no matter what the color. It was called the Sunday dress. It is only from the Renaissance onwards that the white dress made its appearance, a symbol of purity and especially of chastity in the highest classes of society only at the beginning. White also represents light and perfection. If you wish to have more information on the history of the wedding dress, this site is very well done.
White is mostly chosen in Europe and America. In Asia, red predominates in the choice of colors, white being associated with death. In some countries, the tradition wants the bride to change even several times her dress during her wedding day…
Now that the request has been made, it’s time to question… How to make the right choice? Who should I talk to? Is it imperative to take her mother with her during the fittings? How much time before the day-do you take it? What budget should be planned?

We will try to answer some of your questions by having 4 of our fetish stores talk. Let us introduce them to you!
1. Let us tell you about the Belle en Blanc boutique in Lausanne
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR BOUTIQUE?
It’s a reputable boutique, which has been on the market for 10 years. Brides-to-be can come with their loved ones, as we have a lounge area to welcome them, so that everyone feels as comfortable as possible during the fittings. We offer quality dresses and services. The dresses are made by designers who have a lot of know-how, who are carefully chosen, from various countries (Israel, England, Australia, Poland and USA in particular). Our brides are cosy-chic, they feel comfortable and happy wearing them!
WHAT ARE YOUR ASSETS? WHAT MAKES YOU SPECIAL?
Quality above all! Our dresses are very well cut, with a lot of precision. The materials are noble, the dresses are adjusted in the atelir and fall perfectly on the brides. We have a large choice and you can customize your future dress at your convenience: it will be unique and will be YOUR dress (this year, we already have 30 dresses in preparation!). The boutique has its own atelier on the spot, which allows much shorter delivery times. An example: we had to completely redo a dress for a pregnant bride a few weeks ago, and this took only 3 weeks: a challenge!

WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU? WHAT ARE YOUR OPENING TIMES?
We are located in Lausanne, at avenue du Léman 34 and there are parking spaces available in front of the boutique.
The boutique is open from Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 to 18:00 (weekdays) and 17:00 (Saturdays).
DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN TRADE SHOWS? IF YES, WHICH ONES?
At the beginning of our activity, we took part in the fairs of Lausanne and Geneva, but now we prefer the personalized welcome of our customers directly at the boutique.
WHEN TO START LOOKING FOR YOUR DRESS?
Normally, we advise you to order your dress 8 months before your wedding date. The designers take about 6 months to make and deliver the dresses to the boutique. It then takes 6 to 8 weeks to adjust the dress perfectly to the silhouette.
In our atelier, however, we can create custom dresses with shorter lead times. 2-3 months minimum, depending on the chosen season … get married in winter 😉 … and the work already in progress.
It is important to take your time! The sooner the better! These moments in the choice of the dress are very important and bring a lot of emotion to the bride-to-be and the people accompanying her.
WHAT SHOULD WE PAY ATTENTION TO?
First, look for some images on the Internet for inspiration, but be aware that these photos are often retouched, that models wear those dresses and that a whole film crew is busy for many weeks making these photoshoots.
Come to the fittings with an open mind and let yourself be guided by the advice of professionals. Choose the dress that suits you, that makes you feel the most you!

MORPHOLOGY ? PERSONALITY ? SEASON AND WEATHER ?
It is our role at the boutique to advise you, we are trained for that and we have the eye! No matter what your silhouette, we will know how to adapt your dress to your personality. With a few starting indications (mermaid or not mermaid, fluid or not fluid,…), we will guide you in the choice of your dress. Our observation and conversations will help us to make magic happen!
It’s not the most beautiful dress that will make us the most beautiful, it’s the one that suits you!
Concerning the season and the weather, it is not difficult to add extra pieces: for example, you can wear a strapless dress, but also a nice bolero just in case! We also see more and more mixes with a jeans jacket or even a perfecto!
WHAT BUDGET SHOULD BE PLANNED?
For the ranges of our store, the prices vary from CHF 2’500.- to CHF 5’000.-.
Since November 2020, we will have the chance to offer dresses of the Berta brand (a little bit like the Aston Martin is to the car); there, the budget will be from CHF 6’000.- to CHF 12’000.- each.
pic by Aria Snaps
DO YOU NEED TO PROVIDE ACCESSORIES? BRIDAL VEIL ? HANDBAG ? JEWELS ? BRIDAL BOUQUET ?
We guide our brides in their choices, whether they are classic or rock&roll, we have something to please them! This year, earrings are again very trendy. Putting them on brings the eye back to the face (the most important part of every woman…). Currently, we find a lot of silk earrings with floral patterns.
The veils are now rather accessories, rather than the symbol of virginity. More and more women choose to have their hands free for their bouquet (or wreath) of flowers, rather than having a handbag.
Pic by Aria Snaps
And finally, the question everyone asks: what to do with your dress after the wedding?
Half of our clients don’t want to part with it. Some of them think that they don’t even need to have it cleaned, and in some countries, they even reuse the bridal veil to make the cradle of the first born.
The other half of our clients bring us their dress, we have it cleaned at the dry cleaners, then we let the brides sell it online (private sale, Facebook group,…) or in second hand stores.
Thanks to Olga, who you can find at the boutique Belle en Blanc, Avenue du Léman 34, in Lausanne. You will be inspired by other photos on her website.
A boutique on the first floor, to ensure your privacy, spacious and bright to welcome your accompanying persons. An on-site sewing atelier is available.
WHAT ARE YOUR ASSETS? WHAT CHARACTERIZES YOU?
Without a doubt our irreproachable welcome and our experience for 18 years. Our team is composed of 4 people, including 2 passionate and meticulous dressmakers to personalize your dress for the big day. We offer a choice of collections at very accessible prices and we also dress generous morphologies as well as pregnant women.
WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU? WHAT ARE YOUR OPENING TIMES?
Since 2016, we are located at route des Toches 3 in Echandens.
We are open from Monday to Friday, from 09h00 to 12h00 and from 14h00 to 18h00. Saturday from 09h00 to 14h00. Fittings are by appointment only.
DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN TRADE FAIRS ? IF YES, WHICH ONES ?
Yes 1 year out of 2, we participate in the Wedding Show of Lausanne and Geneva. We also participated in the Salon Dites vous Oui at Portes des Iris.
WHEN TO START LOOKING FOR YOUR DRESS?
About 9 months before the wedding, our order time being about 4 months. It is ideal to have the dress at least 2 months before the wedding.
WHAT SHOULD WE PAY ATTENTION TO?
To transmit a color sample to the future husband so that he avoids choosing a real white shirt when all dresses are sold in ivory …
MORPHOLOGY ? PERSONALITY ? SEASON AND WEATHER ?
The dress must bring out your personality and character without disguising yourself. We dress all morphologies, we have many collections of all styles. For weddings in winter, we propose warm stoles, and for summer we favour models of sleeveless and light dresses.
WHAT BUDGET SHOULD BE PLANNED?
Most of our collections are between CHF 1’000.- and CHF 3’000.-; this is a budget to which you have to add the price of alterations which varies greatly from one client to another and according to the models.
DO YOU NEED TO PROVIDE ACCESSORIES? BRIDAL VEIL? HANDBAG ? JEWELS ? BRIDAL BOUQUET ?
It is better to keep your hands free for the bouquet… so no handbag. The veil makes a little comeback for the more romantic. The dresses being relatively elaborate, the necklaces will be very discreet; especially privilege the comfort for the shoes… in order not to end the wedding barefoot…!
And finally, the question that everyone asks: what to do with your dress after the wedding?
We propose a second hand store to our customers who wish to resell it… otherwise you have to keep it and take it out from time to time to remember the beautiful memories of this incredible and memorable day 😉
Thanks to Myriam, who you can find at the Boutique Forever, Route des Toches 3, in Echandens. You will be inspired by other photos on their website.
3. And to finish the boutique With Love in Bremblens
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR BOUTIQUE?
Warm, it feels “like home”, lots of natural light.
We like to take the time to drink a good coffee or tea to get to know each other and talk about your wedding project. We have set up our boutique with love for you and your loved ones, to live quality, unique and unforgettable moments.

WHAT ARE YOUR ASSETS? WHAT CHARACTERIZES YOU?
Joie de vivre, passion, smiles, sharing, complicity, honesty, benevolence, professionalism…
WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU? WHAT ARE YOUR OPENING TIMES?
In Bremblens, a two steps away from Portes des Iris , at the rue de l’église 4, in the former classroom of the Village School, which we have renovated to welcome you.You can contact us using the form on our website www.withloveboutique.ch. We can make the boutique private for you and your loved ones. By appointment only.
DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN TRADE SHOWS? IF YES, WHICH ONES?
For the moment, we’re focusing on intimate, exclusive salons. In exceptional venues like Portes des Iris. We once took part in the Salon du Mariage in Beaulieu, because we really like Philippe and Maureen who organize it, but we’ve since decided to give priority to our appointments with brides-to-be in the boutique…
WHEN TO START LOOKING FOR YOUR DRESS?
As soon as you say YES!
As soon as a date and venue have been set… Knowing the location and season of the wedding is a huge help in planning. Ideally 8 to 12 months before the big day! Know whether you want an intimate wedding… A religious or secular ceremony… But we advise you to come ready to say YES to THE dress!
WHAT SHOULD YOU PAY ATTENTION TO?
To come with your loved ones, those with whom you want to share these special moments. Surround yourself with people who know you well and who care about you.
Take the time to prepare this unforgettable moment! Come with your desires, your inspirations. It’s important to know if you’re buying THE dress or if it’s a gift, and to know if you have a budget to stick to or if it’s ‘à coup de coeur’! We’re here to accompany you and advise you on the important choice of your dream dress.
MORPHOLOGY ? PERSONALITY ? SEASON AND WEATHER ?
Find the dress that will make you look your best today, that will highlight your assets and match the bride you want to be. Romantic, elegant, feminine, bohemian, trendy, sexy, glamorous, it has to reflect your personality.
It’s also important to think about the season of your wedding: you won’t wear the same dress in summer as in winter, and your accessories won’t be the same. Treat yourself! Dare to shine! Dare to be yourself! We’re delighted to be able to dress women of all shapes and sizes.
WHAT BUDGET SHOULD BE PLANNED?
At With Love, we’ve chosen to focus on the brands we love, which, like us, are family-run businesses, passionate about their work and a pleasure to work with. We currently represent several designers from Brittany in France, England, the USA, Australia, South Africa and Ireland. We love finding the nuggets that will make our brides’ eyes shine!
In our boutique, our dresses currently range from CHF 2,200 to CHF 5,800, excluding alterations. With a few models for civil dresses and short ‘Party Dresses’.

WHAT ARE THE TRENDS FOR 2025?
Close-fitting, feminine, flowing silhouettes. A pared-down, “less is more” style, sublimely smooth, luminous materials, a look that’s easy to accessorize with a beautiful veil or more showy jewelry… Satin, crepe, silk chiffon…
Lace again… but often in relief, also known as 3D. Floral, plant and natural motifs. Very fine lace, also ‘chantilly’ with lingerie effect. Corsets, visible whalebones, structure, bustiers, even two-piece bustiers and skirts.
We dare to go full glamour, with sequins, flat transparent sequins and even pearls! In this style, we favor loose hair with a wavy effect…
Bare backs… always! V” necklines, but also pretty round or heart shapes. Square décolleté is also on trend, thanks to the influences of TV shows like ‘Bridgerton’!
We also like volume, but more ‘A’ line flaring out from the hips than too ‘princessy’. A very couture ‘modern princess’ style, with draping and exceptional fabrics. Duchess silk satin, embossed, textured, printed… Silk Mikado… A dream come true!
Nude, rosy, powdery, sandy, beige or even taupe shades as backdrops to sublimate the complexion and highlight the lace motifs on the dress… A subtle, delicate play of transparency for a romantic or even sexy effect, depending on the dress model.
Sometimes we even like a slit on the leg to give a little more freedom of movement and comfort, a very feminine touch that makes you want to strike a pose!
DO YOU NEED TO PROVIDE ACCESSORIES? BRIDAL VEIL ? HANDBAG ? JEWELS ? BRIDAL BOUQUET ?
The most important thing is to accessorize your dream dress with accessories that you like and that go perfectly with it. We like to dress up the hairstyle with a pretty comb, jewelry or natural flowers or even dried/stabilized flowers (ultra trendy). Don’t hesitate to include your floral designer in your choices! The bouquet should match the mood of your wedding; we like to favor seasonal flowers.
The veil can match the dress (identical lace) or be light and airy with crystal sparkles, for example, for a touch of light… We’ll be happy to take the time to advise you.
When it comes to jewelry, it’s great to wear a family heirloom, a gift from a loved one, or even from your fiancé/e.
To complete your look, we’ve chosen trendy, glamorous or bohemian jewelry to make you stand out on the day.
Indulge in personalized, embroidered accessories, from made-to-measure denim jackets to hand-embroidered veils… But above all, let your heart speak and listen to your desires!
And finally, the question everyone asks: what to do with your dress after the wedding?
Many women wish to put again their dress but very often, after the wedding, it is more difficult to change it, because one wishes to preserve the dress as it is. We recommend a dry cleaning service to make it look like new again. There are also boxes to keep it, but the pretty cover that we offer to our brides also fits perfectly.
Thanks to Laetitia & Léa, who you can find at the boutique With Love, Rue de l’Eglise 4 in Bremblens . You will be inspired by other photos on their website.
So in conclusion, we hope to have your opinion, because we, the Portes des Iris coordinators, can’t agree and we would like to know what YOU are going to do/have done with your beautiful dresses? Send us an e-mail at .
Corinne Salvisberg Perrone, October 2020 / revised April 2025
A boho wedding is not just a lovely rustic decoration or a wick in the wind, it is much more indeed, a carefully selected combination that is articulated around a whole philosophy that we will try to describe here..
Prelude
“Montmartre en ce temps-là”…. Aznavour spoke about it so well, bohemia meant so many things…. young people, dreamers, lovers, passionate, idealists, destitute, artists, hungry or extremely rich…. all had one thing in common, FREEDOM…
According to Balzac, who already spoke of it in the 19th century, “Bohemia has nothing and lives on everything it has”. It is much more than a style, but really a state of mind, a way of living, traveling, eating, loving, and above all thinking.
Going off the path, daring to be different, assuming ourselves for what we are, feeling free, feeling alive, not conforming to the criteria imposed by a society in constant pursuit of results, living our dreams and dreaming our lives. Sometimes against the codes, sometimes on the margins, but always in harmony with ourselves..
The result is also a great gentleness, a quest for serenity, peace of mind, nature and well-being. Although the result of frustration and rebellion, the bohemian is not revolted but simply refuses to enter into an imposed framework and loudly proclaims Freedom for all.
However, for some years now, it has also been a very fashionable trend in weddings and this is precisely what we are going to talk about… 🙂
Jane Birkin, iconic figure of boho
What is a boho chic wedding?
What are we talking about?
First of all, it’s a wedding that looks just like you, and only like you. It’s a decoration, a dress, small details, accessories that will only come out of your own tastes, experiences, shared memories, travels, and where audacity has its place as much as authenticity and nature, because you are free.
From an aesthetic point of view we are talking about lightness, freedom, poetry, simplicity, elegance, intimacy and a return to roots…
pic by Dan Petrovic, decoration by Kalosia
Light and fresh
Small touches that seem to have appeared on their own, a flower pricked in your hair, twigs arranged on a table, a ceremonial central path gracefully decorated, without overcharging, but where each detail will play its best to become one with the rest. While leaving a feeling of natural freshness that will give your decoration the impression of being made without any effort …
pic by Hanry Human, decoration by Kalosia
Freedom and poetry
A dress full of poetry that plays with the smallest breeze, in constant movement, hair in the wind or in a messy bun, locks, lace, a wreath of flowers, the list is long as the style is declined in different ways. The folk wedding is white, beige, plays with pastel and soft tones, cream … we talk about softness here again.
A simple bouquet, slightly unstructured, rustic and seasonal will be the perfect complement to the ideal outfit.

Simplicity and elegance
The authenticity of our wooden Dorianna room is perfect for a boho-chic wedding, just as if they were made for … it takes very little to bring out all their character … a few touches are enough to make this place a parenthesis out of time, just for you the time of one evening. Garlands, laurel, eucalyptus, and other greenery for a rural and natural spirit, and why not, some natural stones, granite, agates or geodes to play with the light and immerse yourself in an indie universe? Because the magic of boho is also the sweet mix of cultures and tastes.

Intimacy
Whether you are two, four, 20, 50 or 120, the magic of this timeless universe guarantees a warm, soft and intimate atmosphere. We feel good together, free, and happy to share with our beloved ones these moments that are so much like us. A unique wedding, that we fully appropriate, without limits nor frame, with the only aim to live things as we feel it deep inside us.

Back to nature
What a wonderful setting that 30 hectares of gardens offering itself to you, a bridle path offering infinite possibilities and a whole enchanted forest to resource yourselves and rediscover the essence of the happiness of being two forever. The connection speaks for itself, it’s right there, accessible to all. On the terraces for an aperitif in the heart of nature, under the barn for a most authentic ceremony.
pic by Marie Montibert
What about a ceremony in the heart of our centennial trees?
What would you say? Immerse yourself as close as possible to our roots, dive into the softness of a most enchanting setting, cherish this vegetation and let yourselves be lulled by the breathtaking nature that surrounds us here. Discover our new offer for a wedding in total harmony and connection, which is unique because it’s your wedding!

And what do we eat?
Above all we eat regional if possible, seasonal, healthy and if possible organic…. simple and original dishes, all with finesse and excellence. Tradition, slow-food, respect for culture and the land is also the Boho spirit. Without getting overly complicated, we go straight to the essentials with well-defined flavors, authentic and refined dishes, a healthy mind in a healthy body, MIAM!
Formerly fixed in our mind, marriage is no longer exclusively a summer affair! While summer retains its inescapable advantages, it is not alone in bringing charm, gentleness and romance to the great day that is your wedding day… We will therefore reveal below the main assets of this wonderful season that is Spring to say a big I do to !.
The flowering and colourful landscapes that our beautiful region has to offer
So on this point, everybody agrees… spring is above all about flowers! Indeed, we have irises but NOT THAT!!!!!! From March on, our gardens are filled with a thousand colours, giving way to wisteria, tulips, narcissus, daffodils, bluebells and many others! .. what magical and incredible landscapes nature will offer you in these months of revival. Your decoration, your couple’s pictures, the eyes of your guests will greatly benefit from it, and it would be a great pity to miss it.
Your service providers and their availability during preparations
It is well known that professionals working around weddings are very popular during the summer season and therefore quite busy. Your preparations, which will take place in the winter, will benefit from the attentiveness and availability of each of your stakeholders, who will also be delighted to see beautiful projects to come. No waiting list for fittings, no unbearable schedules for tastings, and all your needs will be listened to and accommodated! And what a great way to survive the cold and wet January weather than to get comfortably settled in and start planning your spring wedding!
pic by Dan Petrovic
The soft prices still practiced until mid-April
The past years have shown us that March and April are months that deserve to be considered… however they still appear in our “winter” offer and you will benefit from soft prices as well as many small advantages and little extras. And we are not the only ones who offer them, most of our privileged providers follow us in this special offer!
The Weather
You won’t suffocate in stifling heat… Mr. will be able to keep his nice suit, without melting entirely inside, and your dress will just be nice to wear throughout the day and evening (because we don’t say so but heat wave and big lace dress can be a big challenge for women!) The sweet spring days, the magic of this nature that sees the day again after its winter break, the sun that floods the atmosphere again with its soft golden rays, while leaving a little room for a fresh breeze that will delight the bride and groom.

Unlimited decoration and inspiration… an infinite palette of colours!
We’re not going to tell you again how much spring is associated with colours and, above all, nuances? Okay, we’ll tell you again… it’s indeed the entire range that you’ll have at your disposal as a playground for your decorative inspiration. Above all, let your imagination run wild… pastel tones rhyme with sweetness and will make your theme a timeless moment filled with softness. Bright tones like flowers, but also rapeseed (very present around us at this period) will immerse the atmosphere in a well-deserved and much appreciated winter exit; and the shades of white and the play of mirrors will be able to sublimate the fire waiting for you in the beautiful Dorianna room! All you have to do is choose according to your mood, your tastes and your desires.
The DRESS and the accessories….
What a pleasure to play with a panel of possibilities…today there is no limit in the number of accessories available to enhance the dress you have chosen! Comfortable shoes, but also a small plaid in faux fur for the end of the evening. Two dresses for one? It’s also possible! Modular lace sleeves or pretty cape incorporated to keep your shoulders warm? Everything is possible in spring.

The many public holidays and vacations
Easter, which often falls quite early in the year, is followed by many long weekends that also leave the possibility of celebrating on a Friday or Sunday…. your guests are much more available, with an overwhelming desire to enjoy the first beautiful days offered by mother nature – and by you!
Seasonal delights
We are very fortunate to live in a region where slow food is still our motto… and guess what? This term takes on its full meaning in spring! Have you ever heard of Vullierens’ asparagus and strawberries? The caterers are tearing them up and they will titillate the most selective gourmets. Endless variations of freshly picked fruits and vegetables, a variety of pleasure and authentic flavours from our beautiful country! Meat and fish are also in the spotlight, and will have the chance to be highlighted by fresh and regional flavours.
Let’s also talk about the many fruity beverages, with or without alcohol, freshly pressed or smoothed… they will leave a lasting memory of the moments of taste delicacy that they have provided for all of you!
Brightness for your photos
Have you ever experienced the quality and clarity of the landscapes in April? The sun’s radiance turns golden as early as 5:00 p.m. to reveal the magic of the instant… bright colours, radiant flowers, white cherry trees, rapeseed in the fields, yellow wisteria and many other treasures will invite themselves into your memories with an unforgettable shooting session in our gardens.
In or out, you’ll make everyone happy!
Of course, in spring, the nights get cooler quickly, as much as the days can be mild and beautiful. What could be more complete as an experience of Portes des Iris than being able to combine ceremony and aperitif on an outdoor setting with a meal by the fireplace?
