The Chapel, centuries-old charm in the heart of Mechelen

In the heart of Mechelen, The Chapel is an exceptional wedding venue where centuries-old history and contemporary sophistication meet. This former congregation chapel has been transformed into an elegant event venue with a distinctive character. Beneath the building is a 16th-century vaulted cellar, which creates an intimate and authentic atmosphere. Whether you opt for a ceremony in the majestic chapel area or a dinner in the historic cellar, every space exudes charm and history. The Chapel allows your wedding day to be bathed in the rich atmosphere of a venue that has more than four centuries of history.

Rustic tranquility on Flinckheuvel

The historic setting and beautiful surrounding nature make Flinckheuvel the perfect backdrop for your dream wedding. The old majestic farmhouse is part of the castle of 's Gravenwezel, a protected monument dating back to the 13th century. The proximity of the castle and the rural gardens allow you to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the oldest Flemish history. The interior of the farmhouse itself is based on numerous antique pieces as well as carefully incorporated modern touches: high windows that provide plenty of light and the necessary technological gadgets that make you feel particularly comfortable.

Passion and fairy tales at Hof ten Damme

Today, the 17th-century country house Hof ten Damme in Kallo is one of the most beautiful banquet halls in Flanders. But as early as the 12th century, there was a first castle here, which would house many knights and damsels over the centuries. Equally fascinating is the centuries-old Japanese walnut tree Ginkgo Biloba, a monumental tree that invites you to relax under its rich canopy all year round. History and fairy tales blend so perfectly here that time seems to stand still. Banquet hall, gastronomy, and outdoor gardens perfectly exude the passion and talent that permeate the entire Hof ten Damme!
