The Wedding Chapel
The first marriage in the manoir’s chapel was recorded in 1476 when the Marquise de Grenille married Jean de Valenciennes. This occasion was commemorated by the stone carving of the two family’s coats of arms on the vaulted ceiling of the chapel. Our English speaking chaplain will conduct a personalised ceremony meaningful to you.
