Drone weddings & events in Bordeaux
In Bordeaux, the banks of the Garonne host receptions and photo sessions: the drone follows the procession along the water, captures the venue in its setting and the whole party in one frame. In Bordeaux as across the department (33), a local pilot travels with the equipment the mission requires — free quote within one working day.
The Gironde metropolis is a complete market: booming real estate around Euratlantique and the Bassins à flot, prestigious wine estates (Médoc, Pessac-Léognan, Saint-Émilion) that are heavy users of vineyard mapping and monitoring, river tourism on the Garonne, and structural inspections from the Chaban-Delmas bridge to the Cité du Vin. The Bordeaux-Mérignac CTR, shared with air base 106, covers the west of the conurbation: urban flights require coordination with both civil and military aviation.

Can the drone fly over our ceremony in Bordeaux?
Not directly above the guests — regulations forbid it — but all around: arrivals, a group photo at a safe distance, the venue in its landscape. Around Bordeaux, outdoor settings with a view (Pont de pierre, Nouvelle-Aquitaine estates) suit it beautifully.
