14 YouTube Châtelains Under One Roof...It's GIVEAWAY MADNESS!
Stephanie & Philip at Chateau de Lalande have done it this time! Can they cope with this many castle-owners under one roof? It's the great Chateau Swap Meet of 2024, but first we have work to do! Simon is busy with Chateau DIY for our own castle renovations, and I have a new Interior Design job at one of Paris' most exclusive addresses. Will we make it on time, what will we wear, and what will we take home? And is there Chateau Puppy Love?!?

ABOUT US:
Hello! I’m Vivienne, the châtelaine of a small 19th century neo-Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France, which I share with my delightful (and wonderfully funny!) husband, Simon, our daughter Isabella, and -whenever possible- lovely friends and family.
This is not our first chateau! 23 years ago, we bought a much larger castle nearby, which we loved with all our hearts. However, nearly 2 decades, many happy memories, countless renovations, and several small fortunes later, we made the very difficult, empty-nesting decision to downsize. With great luck and perseverance, we found our current petit château, which we are now decorating and updating with love, humour, comfort, and -of course- antiques and art!
We adore France and its many unique facets: its people, culture, landscapes, wine, food, art, and history. We also love being surrounded by châteaux, both public and private, which we can explore together! After 20 years here, we have learned many things about living in France, renovating châteaux, and appreciating the extraordinary riches surrounding us.
We originally decided to make these videos as a way to share our lives with our loved ones worldwide during the pandemic lockdowns. However, we soon realised that many others are at home alone, and it is our privilege to open our home to you, our new friends. We hope you will join us on our adventures in this exceptional location, and we look forward to sharing a little Château Love!

A Regiment of Chatelaines? A Strategy of Chatelaines? A Kinship of Chatelaines? Yeah, that's the one. A Kinship.
Love it! 😁🏰💖
Absolutely fab-u-lous to see you all together, just loved it. Thank you so much for sharing ❤ xx
A brocante of Chatelaines 🎉
When pronouncing Emmaus.... think of the girl name, Emma. Then follow it with goose minus the G. Emma - rose. Or Em plus the pronoun my and oose. Em-my-oose, with the long i sound on the my. 😊
I agree the' Kinship of Chatelaines' Very nice!
I have to say you are a true sweetheart...thoughtful & considerate of all of your friends. Your smile is infectious. ❤️🙏
Goodness, you are too kind! 🥰🏰💖
I agree with you. Vivienne is so genuine and sincere...very loving person I have no doubt. Her chateau is a masterpiece and Simon has to be incredible, too.
Absolutely! Vivienne thought of everyone. She has a heart of gold!
Chatter of Chatelains
Yes! I love that! 😁🏰💖
I second this motion.
And I came on to post that very thing a moment ago. Great minds.....
Interesting, I thought of chatter 😂😊
I think this is a perfect name as it sounds similar too. Brilliant.
Paul Anka sang Puppy Love first in 1960, but I still had Donny Osmond posters on my bedroom wall….it was in 1972, after all.
Our rooms must have matched! Donny was everywhere in my childhood bedroom. I had a strong case of puppy love!
I have Paul Anka’s record, with him sitting on a world globe, my dad loved Paul…and yes I love Paris ❤️
Donny Osmond, he wasn't the first, but th he only one I think of when someone talks about the song. I follow him on Instagram. I was able to remember my parents anniversary because it's Donny's birthday
I did not know Paul Anka sang it as well. You learn something new every day! ❤
@@debbiemilan2867David Cassidy as well…
Thank you for filming and sharing your lives with us.
It is a pleasure and a privilege! I feel like we are a big, extended family. 🥰🏰💖
That's how many of them make a living (although not the smallest channels, obviously). You're the one that should be thanked for watching them.
Just love your sister Ashlee's version of "I Love Paris"...simply fantastic! Simon is such a debonair carpenter and that bathroom is going to look great. Another awesome episode as usual!!
Superb...reminds me a bit of Doris Day
Actually, I thought that WAS Doris Day!! But after listening again I think Vivienne's sister's voice is a little clearer ...Doris was a bit 'breathy'. Will always LOVE her song "Que Sera Sera" which my mother sang to me as a child ...I think Doris sang this to children in the movie as well where the song was featured. @@mercedesbeard6974
Wow, how did I miss that you are also a decorator Vivienne? You are so, so talented! And so generous and thoughtful. I messaged you and wrote a comment on the Chateau Diaries video about the beautiful jewelry you gave to absolutely everyone! So, so excited to see so many of my favorite Chateau owners out all shopping and hanging out together at LaLande!! What a treat!! Your two puppies together were absolutely adorable. Love from Mary in Southern California. 💗
I hope she gets to show us her finish product of her work.
Hi Mary, you are so kind! Yes, the puppies were incredibly sweet together. 🏰💖🏰💖
Both sets of vases won the day, in my opinion! Absolutely stunning what can be found in French antique shops! Your gifts of jewelry were lovely, and each piece more gorgeous than the last! Most importantly, it's been delightful to see you all have such a a wonderful time together!
Beaudelaire and Lancelot are so cute together. I love the twin vases. They're so pretty. It's so nice to see old friends. ❤ from TX!
I love that you had so much of the puppies hanging out together. I feel they go along as they are still puppies. Playing is their game.
A Chatter of Chatelaines
A flamboyance of Chatelaines.
Oh! I like that!! Better than a "Restoration" or "Upkeep" of Chatelaines ...even though these last two are more honest!
I just looked up the etymology of Flamboyant & it directly traces to French origins ...in fact French Architectural origins!!! Furthermore, French Architectural origins in the 14th, & 15th century!!! So Vivienne what could be more perfect than to call yourselves a "Flamboyance of Chatelaines"!!! READ HERE: 4th definition of Flamboyant: Noting or pertaining to French Gothic architecture of the late 15th and early and middle 16th centuries, characterized by the use of flamboyant tracery, intricacy of detailing, virtuosity of workmanship, attenuation of parts, and frequent complication of interior space.
Oh Vivienne! I loved seeing you and Simon and your found treasures! I do hope you all decide to make this a regular feature. We all have treasures to pass onto someone new! We cannot buy a Chateau in France at the moment. However, we are closing on our Georgia "Chateau" tomorrow! I'm so excited. I'm starting a KZhead channel! I've been so inspired by you and Stephanie! Let the French decorating and lifestyke begin! The Southern Chateau! ❤
Congratulations!!! I wish you all the best and let me know when your channel launches as I’d love to watch. 🥰🏰💖
Puppy Love......the song was Sung by Donny Osmond.the time period was early to mid 70s. Much respect Daniel
Vivienne, you guys really scored on the pair of Art Nouveau vases... beautiful..!!!
An upkeep of chatelaines
Haha! I love that! 🏰💖
I always enjoy your videos. It made me smile to see the pups together, I've seen Stephanie's video and yours. Delightful!
A lovely vlog. Marie cooked so many meals and arranged all the flowers. I’m sure she loved the thank you gift you gave her.
I just love how you put your vlogs together! Great mix all in one vlog! What a great group to spend the weekend with and a swap! Antique and thrift shopping, I mean who doesn't love that! 😂 Simon has on record who bought mone working lamps! Y'all make a great team, now for Vivienne to put her creativity in the bathroom! Looking forward to seeing it completed!
Thank you! I’m really looking forward to showing you the progress. Big hugs!!! 🏰💖🏰💖
Great episode! I love when you film at LaLande - one never quite gets just how tiny Stephanie is from her own videos! Your gifts to everyone were very beautiful ❣️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Everyone on The Chateau Diaries was asking g about your pup’s paw. Didn’t know if you had seen those. Hope all is well with him. 🥰😩
Oh, I haven’t seen those comments yet. He has a little sprain that’s taking ages to heal, especially for such an active puppy. Happily the vet isn’t worried. 🏰💖
Vivienne, you are a real hoot & such a joyful person!! Simon, you're not too shabby either!! The two of you make an amazing couple & I love Simon's DIY narrative!! It was clear you all had a wonderful weekend & hope to see a repeat of this retreat next year!! Blessings!! 🇺🇸
Ahahahaha "It's only Puppy Love" by Paul Anka who's pop owned a tavern in the town where my parents grew up!
Thank you for taking us along with you 🎉❤
That is a beautiful plate that Phillip gifted you. I could see that on a wall to be seen often. Love the two bronze vases!!!! Excited for your bathroom renovations coming up. To top it off, your dog loves Lancelot. He needed that. Best.
Hello my gorgeous and amazing chatelaine. It was a pleasure and honour to finally meet you. We adore you two. Hope to see you two soon. Sending you hugs from the Journey to the Chateau ❤😊❤
Gorgeous and amazing yourselves!! Meeting you both was truly one of the highlights of our visit! We can’t wait to see you again. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💖🏰💖🏰💖🥰💖🏰💖
Thanks for all the love! Was great to see you again-Bonnie
Big hugs, Bonnie!! Can’t wait to see you again! 🏰💖
A glitter of Chatelaines. A treasure-trove of Chatelaines.
Oh! I like these even better than a "Flamboyance" of Chatelaines ...even though flamboyance comes directly from French origins.
I adore you guys, you are a beautiful couple ❤❤
It's nice to see de Lalande from another's lense. ❤👍
Wasn’t expecting the view of the area currently surrounded with orange fencing
I absolutely loved the treasure swap. Good times with good friends. So sweet to see the pups together. 🦋
Vivian you give the best gifts. Your thoughtfulness and smiles do not go unnoticed. Loving your Paris trips.
🥰🥰🥰🏰💖
Just finished watching Stephanie's Chatelaines Video. I was wondering about Terry & Ash.
Hi Stephanie, they were supposed to come but had a last-minute conflict. We really missed them! 🏰💖
@ChateauLove Thank you for responding. Enjoying your channel from Pennsylvania.
I love having an additional view angle over Stephanie 's video
Looks like everyone had a such a great time shopping, eating, laughing and just being together at La Lande. 🥰
It was really interesting to hear about how you choose your colour for paint after looking at the water, buildings and such. A natural way for you 😊
A great, fun weekend with friends, thanks for sharing 🌟 Loved the little film of Paris on a week day. I must go back 🥰
Love all the chateaux channel’s perspectives from the get together ❤❤. Love the vases. Great find.
You two are always such a joy to watch and seeing all my favorite Chateaulens together is the best!
The Fellowship of Chateaux
Donny Osmond. That song still brings tears to my eyes, happy memories
Oh that was such a wonderful video. Thank you Vivian. You and Simon are very special people😍😍
You are so kind. Thank you! 🏰💖
You have such a beautiful heart Vivienne. Such a lovely gesture with the gifts. Always magical adventures. Much love & light. ❤🙏
Simon, you seem extremely knowledgeable about antiques in addition to your DIY skills, photography etc. I’d describe you as a renaissance man.
Simon says “thank you very much”!! 🏰💖
It always feels that as Chatelaines you are going on a lark. A group of larks are called an exaltation. So an exaltation of Chatelaines is my vote.
That’s just wonderful! I love it!! 🏰💖
An "exuberance" of chatelaines! 🥰
Donny Osman sang Puppy Love. My son is a lieutenant colonial assigned at the Paris Embassy, so watching your vlogs and Stephanie 's allows me to experience France without being there. I am a trained artist too so I enjoy all the creative things done on the vlogs. A Canadian retired teacher in Vancouver, Canada.
You must be so proud of your son. What an exciting assignment. 🏰💖
Puppy Love by Donnie Osmond
How wonderful that you all have found each other; such an amazing blessing! I love when you're together having your adventures and sharing the love and passions of being chateux owners.
You are so kind! It’s truly an exceptionally kind, funny and talented group of people. 🥰🏰💖
I think the comment of "A Chatter of Chatelains" is perfect.
SIMON IS A GREAT FINISHING CARPENTER. VERY GOOD JOB. 🎉PANELING
A plethora of chatelaines 🎉 (fab vlog)
Oh good Lord, be careful with the roof but so interesting to see the workings of your home in the loft, I love it 😊
This was so much fun Vivienne seeing you all together and I like the idea kinship of chatelaine 's, and what a beautiful lady you are gifting them all with a piece of jewellery which are stunning. I think it is a great idea that you all visit each others chateau's to exchange things that you all don't want anymore.great fun had by all loved it.Take care and see you both soon 💕🌼🤗
I have to say out of all the “Chatalians” Vivienne and Simon are my favs. Very down to earth with a wicked sense of humour.💖🛀💫
💖💖💖
Fabulous and fun video, thanks for sharing
An emmaus of châtelaines!
'Puppy Love' by Paul Anka 1960 then Donny Osmond in 1972 and others... Lovely seeing all the chatelains and castellan's together.
I Love those vases - 100% great find! Looks like you all had a great time!
"Puppy Love" is a popular song written by Paul Anka in 1960 for Annette Funicello, a Mouseketeer, whom he had a crush on.
Oh yes in Emmais you can find treasures ! I particularly love these old furniture that was made to last forever but, of course, nowadays they have to be repainted at least in a clear color ! For the song « puppy love » was sung by Donny Osmond (I still have the records) but my mother told me it was Paul Anka we sung that song before. Good to see you have had a good time with your friends at Lalande exchanging things. I wish you a good week and hello from near Paris ! ❤❤❤❤
💖💖💖
I call it chateau clan lol absolute marvelous 😊😊😊❤
Good one! 😀😀🏰💖
I didn't realize that your Château is Art Nouveau à la Française. What fun you've all had ❤
It was great seeing all of you together! Love to thrift. Thrifting with friends. Even better!!
A Sparkle of Chatelains!
What a fabulous fun weekend ❤
A chuckle, cachophany, cotillion, camaraderie, carnival of Chatelaines ?
Having been a Chateau Diaries devotee...Im only just branching out to the other Chatelaines....and I have to say, Vivienne, you are almost ethereal, such a lovely aura around you. Your hubby is hilarious, just love his slightly acerbic wit. As for Beaudelaire.....I'm in love 😍 xxx
Loved watching the swap at chateau diaries. Your wife has such a kind heart
Dan in the House!!
I love your sister's voice. And I love when all the chateau owners get together. Great group of people.
Thank you. ❤
A Collectible of Chatelains. Works well since you collect chateaus, treasures and friends.
I love that! 🏰💖
What a wonderful video of visiting Chatelaines to Chateau Lalande. I loved the Brocanting, treasure hunting, sharing, exchanging, swapping all with love and fun. Just glorious. Stephanie and Philip are such wonderful hosts as you are too. Thank you for this video ❤
Absolutely lovely! Thank you so much….enjoyed every minute! ❤️ 🥂
What a spectacular location. I have stayed on Ile St Louis every time I have visited Paris. It's fabulous. Sadly no more visits due to health issues so you can imagine how thrilled I am to see my favourite area once again. Thank you!
I’m sending you lots of good vibes for your health and meanwhile I’ll try to show more of the project as it continues just for you. 🥰🏰💖
You’re a charming couple. I love Art Nouveau style too. Beautiful vases, what a find. ❤
Merci pour ces belles vues de Paris, de Notre Dame et de la Tour Eiffel. Les plus belles vues de mon deuxième pays. J'ai passé 16 ans en France. J'aime la France et tout ce qui concerne Paris et la belle France. Merci. Love you thank so much beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
C’est un vrai plaisir! Merci à toi! 🥰🏰💖
Donny Osmond.... 🎼 "And they call it Puppy Love, oh I guess they'll never know 🎶how a young girl really feels, and that's why I love her so"🎵
Lancelot needs a small puppy friend at Lalande!!
Paul Anka wrote and sang "Puppy Love". 🥰
The view is the decoration. I normally shy away from all white but I think all white, crystal, silver and a timber floor
As always a lovely entertaining vlog
Paul Anka wrote puppy love for Annette funacello. It went to number two on the billboard.
Love the kinship and a chatter of chatelaines ❤❤❤❤❤Your gifts were so thoughtful. Hope you can reveal your apartment proud. It sounds lovely 😍😘
💖💖💖
Puppy Love ..... the wonderful Canadian, Paul Anka
Puppy love was sang by Donny Osmond in my generation, and I’m sticking to it! Lol hugs and love from Texas!
I had such a crush on Donnie Osmond
I hope you included Marie in your gift giving.
I did, just privately. She got a lovely Delft silver brooch with hand painted flowers. I thought it was perfect for her, and kitchen camo! 🏰💖
A chatter of Chatelaines? ❤
😂 Paul Anka and Donny Osmond A different Puppy Love…Dolly Parton’s first hit written by her and buck.
Oh that’s good. Quick healing!!
A celebration of chatelaines
I love seeing all if you together. Always fun.
It's a 'Chatter' of chatelaines.
Marvelous, it has been such a treat!🌺🌸🌼
the laughter is precious
Ohhhhhh and you did soooo well at the brocantes. Amazing!!!
I think the Nouveau vases were the buy of the day can just see them on my fireplace 😅
A Chatter of Châtelaines
I wore a bridesmaid dress similar to that dress only in pink at my friend’s wedding back in the 80’s. 😬
A Corset of Chatelaines!
What fun! I love your vases and can’t wait to see their new home
Would it be a Coterie of Chatelaines, just a guess. Thank you beautiful people, love what you do. Cheers.DD🐨❤️
Love it! 😁🏰💖
Great to see Lady of the Chateaux was wondering where they've been Group name The Chatterers?
