Intimate weddings — Old Town Nice
Your intimate wedding party in Nice
Privatise Les Folies d'Edmonde for your intimate wedding: a 17th-century vaulted cellar in the heart of Old Nice, up to 50 guests, signature cocktails, live musicians and a dance floor until 3am. Several weddings have already been celebrated here — the venue and the team know the score.
What the wedding privatisation includes
A simple formula: the venue, the bar and the music are yours. All that's left is choosing the table.
- Full privatisation: ground floor, vaulted cellar and the terrace on the pedestrian lane
- Dedicated bar team: signature, classic and alcohol-free cocktails for all your guests
- Strolling band available for the aperitif and the party
- Full DJ equipment and an equipped stage — bring your DJ or plug in your playlist
- Late opening until 3am
- Coordination with your caterer or our neighbouring partner restaurants
A clear budget: up to €3,500
The budget covers venue privatisation, drinks (cocktails included) and late opening until 3am — depending on guest count, duration and the drinks package.
Only the food is up to you: our neighbouring partner restaurants (OKA Nice, Fish Bar 2.0, Etna Rosso) deliver straight into the cellar, or bring the caterer of your choice — we coordinate the logistics with them.

How many guests can we bring?
Up to 50 guests with full privatisation (around 35 seated in the vaulted cellar). It's a venue made for intimate weddings, not very large receptions.

Who takes care of the music?
Your call: a strolling band for acoustic ambiance, full DJ equipment and an equipped stage for your DJ or your playlist. Live, DJ set, or both in the same evening.
How late can the party go?
For wedding privatisations the bar can stay open until 3am — well beyond our usual hours.
How far in advance should we book?
Several weddings have already been celebrated here and Saturdays go fast: ideally 2 to 6 months ahead, but write to us even for a close date — we reply within 48h.
