GET TO KNOW THE PLACE

A clearer picture.

At Château de Bouthonvilliers in the Dangeau area, the celebration and the overnight stay have different sizes: 100 event guests and 35 sleeping places are listed. You could bring a smaller group together on site, then arrange nearby rooms for the rest. At the full listed guest count, 65 people would need somewhere else to sleep if everyone stays.

The room information records 15 bedrooms. Ask for the breakdown of doubles, twins, shared rooms and extra beds before allocating places. A sleeping total alone cannot show how different households will fit.

For food, the source says “External caterers welcome”. This may give you more choice over the food, but check whether there is an approved supplier list and who supplies staff, equipment and clearing-up.

The recorded starting figure is €10,000, described as “Starting figure in the venue listing; package scope must be confirmed”. Use that exact hire period and set of inclusions when comparing quotes. It is a source-listed price from September 2026, not a current offer or the total wedding cost.

The staff or language entry says “French, English”. Agree who will be your contact during planning and who will be present on the day.

Where these figures come from & how we choose months

NASA POWER modelled area climatology, January 2001–December 2020, retrieved 28 September 2026. This is historical climate guidance, not a forecast or a measurement at the venue. The area query is centred at 48.000° N, 1.250° E; the meteorological grid is about 0.5° × 0.625°. Elevation, coast and local shelter can change conditions substantially.

We select the three months with the lowest score: distance of the monthly mean from 20°C, plus twice the average daily precipitation in millimetres. This is an editorial preference for mild, relatively dry conditions, not an official wedding-season rating. Monthly precipitation is mean mm/day multiplied by calendar days, using 28 for February. Always plan an indoor alternative.

Compare summer with May and September

July has the warmest June–August mean in this area dataset, at 19.7°C. For a different seasonal comparison, look at September: its mean is 16.1°C, with about 39 mm of rain over the month.

Area climate averages, 2001–2020
MonthDay-and-night meanMonthly rain
May13.6°C65 mm
June17.5°C58 mm
July19.7°C53 mm
August19.5°C51 mm
September16.1°C39 mm
October11.9°C64 mm

For warmer dates, ask about shade and cooling. For cooler dates, ask about evening shelter and heating. Neither a lower monthly rainfall total nor a suggested month removes the need for an indoor plan.
