Green Wedding at the Auberge des Gallant

Category: Community Involvement

 

The natural setting on Mont-Rigaud, in the heart of a maple and cedar forest, is the perfect setting for a green wedding. Our five acres of flower gardens, our stocked trout pond, horse stables and walking trails are just a few reasons to choose Auberge des Gallant for your destination wedding.

Our commitment to the environment and local farmers is well established and has been a way of life for us well before it became the « In thing »

Here are a few ideas that may help you plan your special day: recycled paper invitations, menus, etc.

Bring flowers you have been growing yourself or chosen according to your own specific taste, to decorate the church, the ceremony or the banquet. Flowers are abundant in our vast gardens and we always use them widely inside the Inn. Our usual decoration is pleasant and can be considered sufficient and perfectly suitable for a wedding. We do not provide specific floral decoration for weddings.

Feel free to bring your own flowers - provided you live close enough to be able to deliver them the day before the event. Of course you can also call upon a florist. In any case, it's a great idea to offer your flowers for your guests to take home when they leave to enjoy for several days after.

Instead of confetti, use rose petals, Flower shops make petals from the flowers they did not sell and these will simply compost into the ground. You can also make a carpet of rose petals for the aisle if you are getting married outside.
