A wedding in the French Alps

Where KNOTS are tied

A wedding in the mountains

People fall in love, and CELEBRATE their love, at Hotel Coutettaz. If walls could talk, ours would spill tales of meet-cutes and candlelit dinners, of intimate ceremonies and moonlit toasts. Perhaps it’s the ROMANTIC roses clambering over the shuttered façade. Or maybe it’s the idyllic setting – tucked away in a stunning ALPINE village. You’ll know when you see it. Make it yours.

The most romantic wedding venue in the French Alps

When you picture your wedding day, what do you see? Not a sedate church hall or something done before – not for you. You’re dreaming of a fairytale location in the heart of the French Alps; vows said against jaw-dropping mountains; romance, heritage and heart. You want something unique – something unforgettable. Welcome, then, to Hotel Coutettaz: a 250-year-old, historic manor house nestled in the Chablais mountain range.

Not one of our Alpine weddings has been the same

With room for up to 130 guests in summer and 90 in winter, a Hotel Coutettaz wedding is whatever you make it. It could be an intimate winter celebration, complete with roaring log fires and freshly fallen snow. Or an outdoor summer ceremony, backed by dramatic mountains and followed by a reception in our fairylight-festooned stretch tent. Formal or informal, traditional or quirky, grand or cosy. Whatever your customs, scale and theme, we’ll perfect every detail of your mountain wedding.

Hotel Coutettaz is a venue of such quality and high standards it’s hard to review without sounding hyperbolic. The three days we spent there with our families and friends celebrating our wedding were some of the best of our lives. From start to finish, we experienced the entire team as professional, caring, genuine, efficient and knowledgeable, which made for a seamless and stress-free wedding, despite a few moving parts as, on the day, the Tour de France finished in Morzine!”

Celebrate your wedding in Morzine

Once you set foot in Morzine, and take in the skies, the trees, the mountains and that fresh Alpine air, you won’t be able to imagine getting married anywhere else. This idyllic French village is beautiful, obviously: picture snow-capped mountains and wildflower-speckled meadows. It’s adventurous, too – off the beaten track, yet still easily accessed from Geneva’s airport. A day or two won’t be enough; take over the manor house, seize your skis or hiking boots, and eke out the celebrations with the people you love in a place that’s stolen your heart.

At Hotel Coutettaz, we plan BEAUTIFUL Alpine weddings to perfection – from intimate gatherings to joyful summer celebrations.

Make memories to last a lifetime

Hotel Coutettaz is a stunning wedding venue, of course. But it’s also a place to be together. Take over the Hotel for the whole weekend or longer, bookending your wedding day with relaxed BBQs and garden picnics, hikes, cycling and sightseeing. And naturally, if you’re marrying in the winter, it’d be rude not to hit the slopes. Ask us to organise an itinerary, arrange bookings and prepare your menus. Nothing is ever too much trouble.

We could not have hoped for a better place and crew than this beautiful venue where we celebrated our wedding this summer. While planning from far away, James was always so prompt and resourceful to help us with all the preparations. The weekend of our wedding itself was beyond our wildest expectations. Hotel Coutettaz looked amazing, with beautiful mountain views in the background.”

Bespoke wedding menus crafted by talented chefs

Whether you’re dreaming of an intricate three-course meal or would rather a laid-back garden buffet, BBQ or picnic, our talented chefs will plan every bespoke mouthful just for you. We only use the finest ingredients, led by the seasons and locally sourced where possible. And our cellar’s filled with big, beautiful wines – though you’re welcome to source them yourself. For foodie couples and hungry guests, it’s absolute heaven.

A choice of stunning bedrooms and suites

There are 11 luxurious boutique hotel rooms at Coutettaz. Each has its own unique character, finished with eclectic touches and traditional details. But most of our couples choose Atelier as their bridal suite. And no wonder; a light, spacious and luxurious room with original wooden beams and an antique roll top bath, it has a gorgeous vintage feel and makes a beautiful backdrop for the dressing of the bride. It’s tucked away from the main house too, so you can get ready in total privacy.

Choose an HISTORIC Alpine wedding venue filled with romance, heritage and heart

We knew we wanted to get married in Morzine and as soon as we walked in, we felt so welcomed and instantly confident in their ability to provide us with the most memorable wedding. We didn’t even consider looking at other venues after our visit there as we just knew we were in safe hands. On the wedding weekend, absolutely everything ran as smoothly as possible, anticipating our needs before we even realised ourselves. The food was out of this world too, with our guests in awe of the catering team’s ability to put together so many delicious dishes for a large number of guests.”
