Question

Will transportation be provided to the venue?

Answer

Transportation to the venue will not be provided. We recommend train, Uber, or local taxis. For those who prefer to drive, there is parking available on site. Address of Venue: Domaine de Sandricourt, 12 Rue du Château, Amblainville, Hauts-de-France 60110 FR TRAIN INFO Guests can take a regional train from Paris to get closer to the wedding venue before taking a short taxi/Uber. Example train route: From Paris Gare du Nord (central Paris), take a regional train toward Esches station. This is usually a TER or SNCF regional service and many trains on this route run directly with no changes. The train ride typically takes about 45–50 minutes one‑way. Tickets can start from around €8–€18 one‑way if booked in advance, and can be purchased through the SNCF Connect or Trainline apps or at ticket machines in the station. Once you arrive at Esches station, the venue is just a short 5–10 minute taxi or Uber ride away. Tips for international travelers: You can buy tickets online ahead of time using the SNCF Connect website or app, which is available in English and lets you see schedules and buy your ticket before you arrive. If purchasing at the station, look for the ticket machines or an SNCF ticket counter in Gare du Nord. Make sure you have a ticket before you board the train — ticket inspection happens on French regional trains and you may need it for the duration of your journey.

Question

Why did you choose France?

Answer

France holds a very special place in our hearts. Will was born and raised in Paris, and choosing a venue close to his home felt deeply meaningful to both of us. It allows us to celebrate not only our marriage, but also his roots, his family, and the place that shaped so much of who he is. Sharing this part of his world with the people we love most makes the weekend even more special, and we can’t wait for everyone to experience it with us.
