Question

When do I have to be there?

Answer

You REALLY didn't want to read the guide, huh? Well, guess what, we're making you. Go ahead, the link is at the top.

Question

Where do we park?

Answer

In Ménerbes, there's a smallish parking lot in front of the school (387 Route des Écoles) that may or may not have enough spots. If that lot is full, circle around to the other side of the hill and park at the town's official visitor parking. At Domaine de Regain, just enter the gravel driveway and you'll be shown where to park. At La Providence, there's a small parking lot that will quickly fill, everyone else can park along the road leading up to the property.

Question

What do I wear?

Answer

Everything goes, even a white dress. But since some of you insisted on instructions, here’s the context: Friday, the setting will be a bit more formal, but we’ll be dressing down a bit. Elegant, but casual. Saturday, we’ll do the opposite and go all out to contrast the natural surroundings. It’s up to you if you want to do the same, the opposite, all casual, all formal—mix it up, we like a good cocktail. Don’t forget your bathing suit on Sunday!

Question

What about my kids?

Answer

Congratulations, you're a parent too! 😜 Friday, you're responsible for your little ones, but Saturday and Sunday, there's some help: Four sitters will look after the kids starting from 5pm on Saturday, all of them speak French and English, two of them German. Kids from age 3 and up will have their own table and will start a bit early, with the help of the sitters. The wee ones each get a high chair in between their parents. There’s an apartment on the premises that we held free for kids to go to sleep. At least one of the sitters will stay there from bedtime to 2am. Sunday, a lifeguard will be present around the pool from noon to 4pm.

Question

What about presents?

Answer

That's so kind of you to think of that, but REALLY, your presence so far away from your homes is all the gifts we need. We'd like you to enjoy this moment with us, it's really our pleasure.

Question

I'm drunk, how do I get home?

Answer

Ask someone if it's Saturday. If the answer is yes, head back up that gravel driveway from way earlier today, there will be a shuttle waiting. If this is Friday or Sunday, you're on your own.
