Sometime between 7:30 and 8pm, your hotel's
reception or the chauffeur himself will
invite you to go down to the elegant 1959
Jaguar Mark IX that is awaiting you out
the front of your building. When both
of you have comfortably settled down on
the backseat, your chauffer will step
on the gas and take you away on a fantastically
lit up tour across the enchanting city
of Paris.
After having traveled
down the City of Light's most dazzling
and stunning streets aboard your charming
ride, you'll leave Paris and head for
the green French department of Essonne.
|
|
The vegetation, which will appear to extend
out its hand to greet you, will become
increasingly adorned with splendor as
you get closer to your surprise destination.
When you reach the incredibly majestic
Juine Valley, the flowered entry to a
luxurious estate will come into view.
Your vehicle will turn down its driveway
and you'll cruise alongside a magnificent
row of three hundred year old linden trees..
|
|
While your hearts will fill with ecstasy,
your eyes will feast on the façade of
the Louis XIII style castle adorned with
charm and poetry that will stand before
you.
In the heart of the adorable
wooden park which appears to have come
right out of one of Perrault's tales,
you'll have discovered one of the most
romantic manors in France.
The estate's magical
atmosphere, being both intimately peaceful
and seductively mysterious, will leave
you spellbound.

As you get out of your vehicle, you'll
be welcomed by the owner. He'll escort
you to the authentic French dinning room
where you'll be offered a glass of Maison
Florent-Maurois champagne as well as a
delicious platter of open sandwiches.
You'll then walk over to your table where
you'll enjoy a romantic dinner for two.
You'll be enchanted by
the prestigious setting: molded ceilings,
parquet floors and mosaics, Louis XVI
furniture, silver chandeliers, floral
decorations and a chimney with character.
The wainscoting's perfume blended with
that of your flavorsome dishes will deliciously
intertwine with the fresh fragrance of
the flowered gardens.
|
|
You'll be able to savor exquisite and
authentic cuisine while enjoying your
magnificent view of the park.
For starters you'll be
able to choose from amongst raspberry
flavored crottin de Chavignol goats cheese
with two apples and duck aiguillettes,
a pillow of scallops in champagne sauce
with a vegetable pasty, delicacies from
the French department of Gers (foie gras,
duck giblets, émincés of duck breast,
bilberries and a salad accompanied by
warm raspberry vinegar), or half a lobster
with a vegetable flan.
A smooth sorbet (lemon-vodka,
apple-calvados or champagne-mango) will
then be served to sweeten your appetite.

|

|
 |
|
Next you'll be able to enjoy tournedos
Rossini with truffles, veal medallion
with girolle mushrooms, crunchy pigeon
dressed in poppy seeds, or a honey duck
filet with small pears. A green salad
with walnuts and Roquefort cheese will
follow, along with a selection of cheeses
including Meaux brie, goat's cheese and
Reblochon.
You'll then savor a selection
of desserts - a true avalanche of happiness
and indulgence, including crème brûlée
and œufs à la neige in verrines, chocolate
sauce patisseries, mini apple Danish pastries
and blackcurrant sorbet.
A Bordeaux Saint-Estèphe
Cru Bourgeois 2003 and a Bourgogne Chablis
Premier Cru Les Fourneaux 2005 wine will
perfectly accompany your majestic dinner.
|
|
At the end of dinner your waiter will
suggest that you may like to take a romantic
stroll through the park. This will be
the signal to let you know that your divine
surprise is set in place. You'll leave
the table and walk hand in hand outside
to admire the beautiful surroundings...
|
|
To your sweetheart's delight, an enormous
heart will suddenly be set ablaze a few
hundred yards in front of you... leaving
you lost for words !
You'll admire several
silver fountains flowing down the sky.
A majestic burst of white comets will
give you a spine-chilling salute before
falling down a few seconds later in the
shape of a luminous cascade !
A final radiant fresco
will then be outlined in the endless universe
of the heavens, with a shower of gold
that will take your breath away !
This will be the perfect
moment to tell your sweetheart just how
much you love him/her... Then you'll invite
him/her to go back one last time inside
the castle, upon which s/he'll be handed
a magnificent bouquet of flowers. Sweet
petits fours, mini fruits and champagne
will be waiting on you in the lounge bar.
While feeling totally smitten in love,
you'll walk outside with your arms around
each other, to discover the deeply romantic
meanders of the park's forest. The shiny
illuminated lake, river, tiny bridge,
chapel, windmill and orangery will resonate
with an irresistibly gracious beauty.

|
|
Upon arriving back at
the castle, you'll return to your car,
starry-eyed and spellbound
by the blazing passionate flame of your
sumptuous love.
