A small collection of useful notes. If anything you wish to know is not here, please write to us.
Photography
We invite an unplugged ceremony.
So that we — and you — can be fully present, we ask that phones and cameras be tucked away during the ceremony itself. Our photographer will capture the moment beautifully on our behalf, and we will share those photos with you afterwards.
For the rest of the day, we would love your photos. Use our hashtag to share your favourites.

Gifts
Your Presence Is Our Present.
The greatest gift you can give us is your company on May 22nd. For those who would like to do a little more, we have a small registry linked on request — but please know there is no expectation, and we are already grateful beyond measure that you are travelling to be with us.
Children
Children are warmly welcomed.
We love that families will be celebrating with us. To help parents enjoy the evening, Le Manoir offers babysitting services for guests who would like a few hours of dancing or quiet on their own. Please indicate any children in your RSVP.
Dress Code
Black Tie.
Tuxedos or refined suits for gentlemen, evening gowns or similar for ladies. We invite attire within our colour palette — black, burgundy, gold, forest green, or cream — though tasteful choices elsewhere are entirely welcome.
RSVP Deadline
Kindly reply by March 22nd, 2027.
Two months before the wedding, we will need final headcounts for the venue. After this date, we may not be able to accommodate late replies.
Travel & Stay
Le Manoir Richelieu is in La Malbaie, in the Charlevoix region of Québec — about 90 minutes from Québec City, 4.5 hours from Montréal.
A Bilingual Celebration
Catherine and Patrick speak both English and French, and so do many of our guests. Our ceremony will move gracefully between both languages. There is no need to speak French to feel welcome — everyone will be looked after.
