Chateau Nouvelle

Chateau Nouvelle, founded by Shawn and Lauren Sparks, was born from the same heart and mission as their first venue, Sandlewood Manor—to create a breathtaking space for weddings while offering couples lasting support beyond their special day. After setting aside plans to build on the Sandlewood property, the couple felt divinely led to the remarkable estate that would become Chateau Nouvelle. Meaning “new castle,” the name reflects Shawn’s vision of Christ’s light shining from the venue, symbolizing renewal, love, and hope. Today, Chateau Nouvelle stands as both an elegant wedding destination and a beacon of encouragement, prayer, and faith for couples as they embark on their lifelong journey together.
