10:00AM - 12:30PM –TRIP INTO SENS FOR GUESTS AT THE CHATEAU– Sens is a picturesque village close to the chateau. It's about 30 minutes away, so this trip will give you 2 hours to explore the town, grab a pastry, and see some of the beautiful architecture (see list of recommended sights on the "Nearby Recs" tab). You'll make it back to the Chateau in time for lunch and will have plenty of time to relax and get ready before the big event! 3:30PM –Archotel Sens to Chateau de Vallery Shuttle– 4:00PM - –WEDDING, The Sycamore Tree– Dress Code: Formal, but no tux required! Midi or maxi dresses (or jumpsuits), in bright colors or black–whatever you feel best in. Dark(ish) suits, but no need to rent or buy a tux. If you wear heels, make sure they have a chunky heel because we’ll be on grass. Want to see some examples of what we're thinking?
