For a few days, France is yours.
A destination wedding in France should feel extraordinary from the very beginning, entirely personal and effortless to experience.
A private dinner. A milestone birthday. A theatrical evening. An entire world brought to life for one night.
From theatre to the art of living beautifully
Before founding My French Way of Life, Caroline Pouzet spent more than twenty years acting in and directing theatre. There is also a more personal story behind the agency. Château de Garrevaques has been in Caroline’s family for eighteen generations.
My French Way of Life grew from these two worlds: the creativity of theatre, a deeply personal relationship with French heritage, and a natural sense of generosity.
