Why choose the Bas-Saint-Laurent region for your intimate wedding?
Epic seascapes
Here, the river becomes the sea, sunsets silence conversations, and islands seem to float in the morning mist.
Bas-Saint-Laurent is a peaceful, vast region where you can get married with your feet in the grass by the sea, near a lighthouse overlooking the open water, or at the top of a cabouron hill with golden fields stretching down to the river below. You can exchange vows just the two of you or with a few loved ones around you, with the river in the background and the sound of laughter carried away on the wind. It’s a place that invites you to slow down, breathe and reconnect with nature.
