Hi Lauren & Jack,
Congratulations on choosing Bastide du Roy for your wedding. We know the venue well and are excited by what we could create there with you.
CODA specialises in entertainment curation and design-led event production for weddings on the French Riviera. Through our Maestro service, we bring artists, sound and lighting together into a programme that flows naturally from one part of the celebration to the next.
We work with exceptional musicians from the Riviera alongside international acts, selecting each artist around the atmosphere you want to create. Our experience at Bastide du Roy also helps us propose how entertainment will work best within the venue’s different spaces.
Below are our initial ideas for your wedding. Once we’ve discussed which elements feel right to you, we can develop a proposal around your plans and budget.
Thanks,
Damien

Guest Arrival & Wedding Ceremony
The first impression. Music begins as guests arrive, then sets the scene for the ceremony. A string quartet could feel cinematic; a harpist, intimate and understated; a group with vocals, something more unexpected.
Drinks Reception
The moment everyone exhales. We could let the classical sound carry through from the ceremony, or change the mood with a chilled vocal group as the drinks start flowing.
End of Drinks Reception & Wedding Breakfast
This is where the energy starts to shift. A roaming band can appear towards the end of drinks, draw guests towards dinner, then move between the tables. Up close, spontaneous and impossible to ignore!
After Dinner Show Band
Time to make an entrance. From a tight six-piece to a full fifteen-piece show, we can build a band around the scale and sound you want. Think exceptional male and female vocalists, world-class musicianship and, for the headline moment, performers who have toured with platinum-selling artists.
After Party DJ
The band hands over; the room becomes a club. A DJ takes it late, with the option to bring sax, electric violin or percussion into the set for moments that hit even harder live.
The Day After
The Yacht Club
The Yacht Club is our signature French Riviera experience; a curated blend of music, drinks and relaxed atmosphere hosted aboard our partner charter yachts.
