Welcome Dinner | Lynn & Stephen

Domaine de Gaztelur

Welcome dinner

Pays-Basque

To launch their wedding weekend in an atmosphere both intimate and spectacular, Lynn and Stephen invited their closest friends and family to a welcome dinner at the Domaine de Gaztelur, a unique venue imbued with charm and character, nestled in the heart of the Basque hills. In this charming bucolic setting, between lush gardens and a traditional Basque house, this reception was the perfect introduction to the festivities to come.

Guests were welcomed in a warm and refined atmosphere, from the exquisitely tasteful antique decor to the 19th-century interior paintings, every detail telling a story. Two long tables, adorned with floral arrangements and lit by a soft halo of candles, invite conviviality and sharing. The atmosphere is imbued with poetry, sublimated by the golden glow of twilight.

The dinner, conceived as a true celebration of local flavors, reflected the region’s culinary savoir-faire. Guests were treated to exquisitely fresh home cooking, celebrating the authentic flavors of both sides of the Pyrenees.

At Alaia Événement, we believe that every moment counts, and this welcome dinner at Gaztelur embodied our commitment to offering experiences that are as memorable as they are elegant.
