Finding L'Auberge Provencale in the Virginia countryside is like discovering a gem you will want to tell everyone about. Nestled in a beautiful setting, the long-time owners of this beautiful facility have carefully and meticulously improved it every year to where it is now quietly spectacular. Private, cultivated, with attention to every detail, you simply cannot go wrong at L'Auberge Provencale. You will immediately feel at home, and - surprisingly - there are plenty of things to do, if you don't want to just relax and unwind. The food is excellent - you will NOT have eaten a better meal anywhere in your life. Celeste, who owns it with her husband who is the chef, has transplanted a lot of the French culture, detail, food and experience to the Virginia countryside. The outdoor garden location for the wedding is incredibly picturesque, with countryside fields as a backdrop, and there is a beautiful, well-windowed room for inclement weather. The outdoor patio, the cozy bar area, and parlor areas and the dining areas are as good as you will find in the French countryside. Don't miss this one. I drive over an hour to get here to officiate weddings, and I would drive further for this wonderful experience. A prize at the end of the rainbow. Don't miss it!
