Our wedding day an absolute dream.

We had our wedding at Iris Orangerie a couple of weekends ago, and honestly, we could not have made a better choice!
Everything was impeccable - the venue, flowers, coordination, service, drinks, and food. We had guests from over 20 countries, and everyone agreed that the service was the best they had ever experienced at a wedding. All staff members were extremely attentive and polite, ensuring that everyone had everything they needed.
We're really grateful to the entire team for making our wedding day an absolute dream.

The venue is absolutely stunning

I was a guest here, at weddings and corporate events also, various times and I must say I was truly impressed. The venue is absolutely stunning — surrounded by nature, filled with light, and decorated with such elegance that it felt like stepping into a fairytale everytime. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized. The staff was kind, very attentive, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and welcomed. The food was above expectations and beautifully served, and every detail — from the setup and ambiance to the flow of the event — was handled flawlessly.
What stood out the most was the atmosphere: warm, joyful, and filled with charm. The Orangerie is truly a perfect setting for a celebration, no matter the type of event chosen and it will sure make it truly special and memorable. I highly recommend it if you want to have a truly flawless event!
