Im watching with headphones on whilst in bed beside my hubby. I just disturbed him as i laughed out loud and have tears rolling down my face. Stephanie as Isabel is absolutely spot on and so funny once she gets into character too. Everyone looks great, but I'm unsure about Philip. I never know quite what to make of him. The lady meant to be Jarrod (sp?) looks just like him too. I'm not sure about the kitchen ladies, Marie and the moon faced one, I have never known her name and i don't know who she is trying to be.
They looks like twins of different ages… I hope Stephanie don’t get her strong Debbie downer vibes when she gets older.. I love when her sister is stern with her and put her in her place😂 I can’t believe two sister can be so different . Chantal is such a wonderful ray of sunshine and her sister.. well just say she isn’t 😂😂😂😂 Only when she tries to butter up Percy😅 It’s actually remarkable that Stephanie has turned out to be such a cheerful person . I thing I’d move far away if my mom acted like that all the time😢 she always find something to pick in or to be negative about.
Amaury's "🙄......it's a cupboaaard" was so funny. The running gag with the naming of the things in this episode made me laugh so hard I actually cried.
And all I could thing about was when Stephanie couldn't find those garden cushions once years ago because it turned out later that Mummy had stuffed them in the Bat Basement to help keep out a draft😂
I remember your nightly drives to do the uploads. Look how far you’ve come. What an achievement. You have accomplished so much! Congratulations to you all, and thank you all for 5 years of entertainment, through good and bad and World wide Pandemic, you have gifted us all with a ray of light in dark times. I wish you continued joy and great success. Big hugs from Houston ❤
@@roselee4445 Thought was just to help satisfy her Mother’s concerns. If shelf dropped on books, there would be very little damage. But, if shelf failed, and fell on crystal and china it could destroy so many irreplaceable pieces. A possible wooden support, stained to match the interior, in an inconspicuously placed area would give extra reassurance that the contents would be “more “ protected. Don’t we all want the best for the chateau? It would be heartbreaking to see lovely pieces broken and so we give our advice. We wish all the best and hope to visit Stephanie’s chateau one day even though a long trip from Chicago. Best wishes!!!!!
@@dianemccormick6669 of course. I do understand. I have very old piece and afraid to put porcelain because afraid old glue gives way. I was just thinking that it looked like those sturdy shelves. Yes reinforced is better. Some absolutely lovely China and crystal
Among Stephanie’s numerous talents, her tremendous sense of humour comes first. This is why her vlog is so successful and unique. Thank You for entertaining us. Bravo, Stephanie, pour vos nombreux talents et plus particulièrement pour votre sens de l’humour. Très bon anniversaire aux Chateau Diaries et félicitations à la Team Lalande (Isabelle et Percy, Philip, etc.). Merci de nous divertir
Pavlina as Jared....OHMYGAWD!! SUPERB!! Percy as Nic and Michael Potts, Mummy as Jerry...There are no words!! Stephanie, you did a fabulous mummy! Everyone was wonderfully dressed, such a fun vlog! Happy 5th birthday Chateau de Lalande! I'm happy to say I've been with you since the beginning!
You should show all the times Marie said the china pantry should be closer to the dining room - I recall hearing it every time you mentioned putting it down the hall past the kitchen over the past 5 years!!!😂 So appropriate she’s back for this!!!!!
5 years!!! Wow congratulations to everyone contributing to making it the chateau diaries it is today. As a viewer from end of 2019 start of 2020, when I followed Michael Petherick from his channel to yours, I can say with all of my heart you have brought so much joy, laughter and happiness. I’ve had many ups and downs through then but putting on your vlogs which always put a smile on my face helped me tremendously. I have watched every single one and even rewatched it from the beginning again when I was jonesing for the diaries. Thank you for bringing such light to every single viewers life even if it’s a brief moment. You’re beloved and I know we all can’t wait to see you again Sunday!!! Xoxo Happy Lalande day!
I found her thru Dick and Angel's Escape to the Chateau DIY, along with Michael and Billy, Edd and Anna, Phil and Angelina, Philip and Anna, Marc and Amy, to name a few! What a wonderful chateau universe it is!
It’s hard to believe it’s been 5 years; but I’m so happy you’re sticking to it and keeping us entertained; I’m raising my glass to you all for many more years of CD to come. Congratulations! 🤗
I am still laughing as I thought Stephanie WAS Mummy at the beginning. My kids keep asking me what I am laughing about !! Loved this so much and am proud to be a patron from the beginning. ❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations on your 5 year anniversary on YT. I remember the *vlogging in portrait mode* days fondly, but wow, your channel, vlogging style, content etc has blossomed so much it's better than anything mainstream TV can offer. Amazing work Stephanie & co, thank you for inviting us in for such wonderful glimpses of life in Lalande and beyond.
I remember those early days and loved the content but portrait mode absolutely does my head in! 🤦🏻♀️😫😭 I blame Instagram for ruining proper aspect ratio! 😡 What a glorious day when her landscape mode took over and TVs, computer screens and laptops around the world could finally be filled with her magnificent visuals! 😍🥰😘❤️
Hilarious 😂 So creative. What a wonderful idea and tribute to all the amazing personalities that have made the past five years so enjoyable for all your viewers. It was such a heartwarming surprise to see you add my crystal collection to the case. Thank you. It all began with two glasses given to me on my wedding day 40 years ago. In celebration of five years I’m happy to let you know I just became a Dauphine on Patreon. Wishing you all much happiness and a very successful next five years. Gloria
Even though I always watch each episode I have never commented but I absolutely had to today. This was so much fun to watch! Congratulations on 5 years and many more to come.
Love it Phillip I do the same with mine! I used antique bookcases not even sure what they where called I had a few and used each other them for glasses crystal decanters and the special plates and such. So I love it. Repurposing is the way to go now a days. It’s the cool thing to do. 😂 so your pantry bookcase is correct. I do hope the shelves hold. You can always make them stronger. And his organizing of it is making my ocd so happy 😂❤❤❤ also can we all just appreciate how happy he is in his element here. He so belongs in the chateau with Stephanie. Can we just appreciate that 😂. This is adorable. And I’m absolutely loving this. I love all the crystal and glasses that is just my thing right now so watching this is making me happy. Lol 😂
Great idea for the crystal glasses . Yes Phillip is glowing from ear to ear. He is in Heaven doing this and I'm glad to watch him. I always am happy to see how your mama reacts to things being done. Love her opinion too. lol
I’m sure I speak for everyone in saying a heartfelt thank you for everything you’ve given us with the Chateau Diaries. You have showed us such joy of living and allow us to escape to your world with the delight of happiness exploding within us each episode. Well done you all. Warmest regards Diane 🎉💐✨❤
Maria being Marie is absolutely hilarious. Dana being Stephanie is spot on. 😅 Natie and Stephanie playing the mothers might be a little bit of a Freudian nightmare fir Philip and Amery 😅 I wish Michael Petherick was there for the 5th Anniversary. Congratulations on your 5th year!
This was so spot on! Amaury in an almost constant eye roll and Marie keeping the peace with her comment, "use what we have" for Isabel's benefit!! And I really like the added names of the china being put on the screen! Congrats on 5 years!
Oh Stephanie I absolutely love the peacock dress. I hope your mummy has stopped worrying about the weight of the porcelain, I’m sure it can’t possibly weigh as much as the full set of the encyclopaedia Britannica 👍
Happy 5th anniversary, I remember starting watching when I was pregnant with my son and now we watch it together. He loves the flowers and vegetables your growing. ❤
Congratulations on your 5 year anniversary of your RUclips channel. Re-purposing the library cabinets to store porcelain and crystal is a great idea, well done Philip. The imagination of all the party guests is definitely deserving of an Oscar. Fun! Fun! Fun!🙏❤️
Isabelle just brings me so much joy! You have to appreciate her 'subtleness'! And Amaury cracks me up with calling out the naming. What a fabulous theme for the party! Stephanie as Mommy was really uncanny and funny and Phillip that outfit was classic! You all really made quite a great comedy act for us all to enjoy! Congratulations for 5 years of sharing joy around the globe! You certainly got me through so dark days and I am incredibly grateful to you all.
That was hilarious!!! Stephanie, you are too good at being your mom! 😆😆😆 Congratulations on your fifth anniversary of Chateau Diairies 🥳🎉 and many, many more years!!!
Stephanie - you're hysterical as your mum; lovely...i hope you all laughed and laughed, you look so like her. Thank you for your uplifting video's i have rediscovered...keep enjoying life in your lovely chateau!
I was literally amazed at how very much you look like your Mother Steph, when you wore her clothes and hair style. I’ve enjoyed the whole five years, it’s been lovely. Philip’s getup is very interesting 🤨
Congratulations on 5 wonderful years! I’m so happy that I found your channel years ago. I can’t remember exactly who’s channel turned me onto yours but I think it was Nicki Positano of Positano Diaries. It was the beginning of a joyful journey which has led me to many enjoyable hours. Thank you so much for your wonderfully entertaining content and wishing you many more years of success. 💞💝💞
Hello sweetheart 💕 Might you've heard anything About the chateau's outer walls Will there be any changes to the Masonry and mortar? Such as a good cleaning and restoration? That would be such a great opportunity to make the chateau Shine even better.... Sending you biggest hugs 🤗❤
Another uniquely wonderful LaLande celebration! Before you had strong Wifi in the chateau, Cat and Marie and other volunteers would come out to the car where you were uploading the vlog, ,(for hours!) bringing food and tea! That really showed the espirit de corps of Lalande! Congratulations on your 5th Anniversary!
He will build out the whole room once he has finished the Grand Salon and the two bedrooms. At least this gives him time till he has those projects done ❤
Congratulations on 5 years of Chateau Diaries. Their success should be measured by the amount of joy and solace they have brought to people around the world thru some very difficult times. Thank you to everyone who has been involved. The camaraderie you all have is inspiring.
Congratulations for 5 years 👏. It's amazing to see how far the château has improved. The soul and heart have really come back into this place thanks to your family and friends. So please. Thank you for sharing your life with us. 🥰 we appreciate it. 😊❤️❤️
Oh my goodness, when I think I’ve seen it all, Lalande throws another wonderful party! So creative. Congratulations on 5 amazing years! No wonder you all feel like family!
To be honest Philip I did the same I have China on the bookshelf and it's totally fine it's been there for years. So basically I just bought bookshelves with glass doors cuz I liked it, pretty and I made a china cabinet out of it. Absolutely fabulous 😊 great job.
Wow all those changes in just 5 years🎉 Great china/glass cabinet and hilarious party. Stephanie wasn't the only one losing it🤣. Well done and Congratulations on five years, from a 2018 original viewer🙂😂♥
Congratulations Stephanie on your big Five years of The Château Diaries being on RUclips. That glass cupboard is gorgeous with all the Chrystal and bits of pottery. I love Philips joy in putting it all together and Isabel enjoying the process … just gorgeous! The transformation driving into the courtyard from years ago is amazing and so grand in my opinion. Davey did well in this design for the château. The walled garden, the forest, the gardens around the chapels, unbelievable and all the helpers along the way have been wonderful in what they did. Pizza party with champagne sounds perfect to me. The peacocks are glorious. Your dressing up as others just cracked me up… I laughed till I cried… what Percy wrote was Spot On! Again my eyes teared up. You’re all class acts that have brought so much Joy and Laughter to so many of us! A Big Thank You from my heart here in Northern California, USA. Love you all.❤❤❤
The true hero of the chateau diaries is your father Stephanie. His fountain really in many ways has become the symbol of this channel and your chateau. When I think of the chateau I always think of the front courtyard and most importantly the fountain!
That was the funniest VLOG I have seen from La Lande, Stephanie you are your mother to a T, Philip you don't need to worry about what she will look like in 30 years, she is her mother's double, Amaury and Natie were absolutely hysterical , and your Mum was great, what a fabulous time you all had 🧡💛💚💙💜🤍🖤🤎
And the Oscar goes to Maria the Chef for her starring role as Marie the flower lady! Second runner up to Stephanie as Mummy and Marie the flower lady as Maria the Chef! Best costume was a tie between Philip and Mummy!
I laughed so hard I cried. Especially when Hanni came out I really miss her. I hope you have a celebration where everyone can get together again soon. I only wish more people had been able to come. What a fantastic impromptu celebration.
When you started with your channel, i was a student at a University in Germany and my grandmother was alive. Today I'm a business consultant. I follow you for many years. Time flies so fast ☺! Stephanie is her mother 😂💃🏼👩🏻🦳.
This was the best! And I have got to say after having been there 2 weeks ago...watching the videos are even much more enjoyable. Thank you @TheChateauDiaries for all the joy.
Congratulations (5) years of wonderful Vloging! I survived COVID, stressful moving, and even survived Hurricanes watching Chateau Diaries! Thank you Stephanie & Crew! Love, Laugh with friends! Grandmama in Florida, USA 👵🏼
Congratulations on 5 years of Chateau Diaries! I have watched every single episode and eagerly await new ones. Your party was hysterical! So many great costumes and all done in such a spirit of fun. I have seen a certain resemblance between Stephanie and Mummy but it wasn't until Steph put on her costume that it was shocking how much alike you both look. The hair clip was what pushed it over the edge. Phillip's version of Stephanie was also fantastic.
Loved the boldness of Phillip and the uncanny similarities in Stephanie’s costume as Isabelle! Everyone was tremendous. Wow, five years and I still remember your first episode with Jerry popping in and you making the dresses. Congratulations to you all but most importantly to you dear @Stephanie
Oh my. THE CABINETS FULL OF GLASS WEAR AND VERY FANCY DISHES IS MAGNIFICENT. 🎉 U LOOK VERY WEALTHY WITH UR GLASSES AND CRYSTAL STEPHANIE.❤ PHILIP IS AMAZING WITH DECORATING THE CASES WITH CHINA AND CRYSTAL. VERY LOVELY WORK.❤ SO WONDERFUL TO SEE PERCY 💞AND ISABEL BACK AT LALANDE
This party idea might be one of the funniest things I've seen in a very long time - especially Stephanie as Mummy!!! You nailed it. Congratulations on 5 years and 220K subscribers.
Wow! 5 years of Chateau Diaries. Congratulations 🎉 Stephanie and all who inhabit Lalande. Love every new episode and can not imagine life without Chateau Diaries to look forward to. Here is to the next 5 years. 🥂🍾
Hands down - one of my favorite Chateau Diaries ever! You all constantly inspire with love and great ideas - you teach us with perseverance, humility and love. Congrats on 5 years! - wishing you all continued love and abundance!
This was hilarious Stephanie, Your mom did Gerry very well and you did your mom excellently and Percy he is such a lovely guy. Congratulations on your 5 years. Have a lovely day.
Oh my gosh this is the most hilarious thing I have seen in ages. I found myself laughing out loud; I especially enjoy when Stephanie impersonates Isobel:)) It is hard to say who my favourite character was at the party. So many lovely talented people all enjoying a 5th year celebration. I am so happy that I found The Chateau Diaries many years ago. They have brought me endless joy and entertainment. (I can't believe that I was actually in one of them!!:)) Long live La lande xx
LOL you are all so funny together. Amaury and the china cabinet bookcase. Phillip's glee at organizing the china. Stephanie distracted by the cook book and banter with Philip. Mummy's concern about the weight of the china. It's a wonder anything gets done!
Wanted to add a second comment regarding the book cabinet turned china/glass cabinet. I frequent a lot of estate sales and frequently see full sets of dishes and glassware trying to find a second life. In our current age the fine art of setting a table and sitting down for a meal using these lovely articles has, for the most part, fallen by the wayside. I am so gratified seeing that you not only display them but use them and enjoy them. The nice things in life, the precious things, should be used and enjoyed. Happy 5th to the Chateau Diaries. I found you during the Covid era and you brought me joy during those challenging months. Partly in thanks to you that era brings back good memories for me of vicariously enjoying the life at Lalande and being introduced to all you wonderful people.
Omg Stephanie being Isabel and Isabel being Gerry was the funniest thing I've seen for ages. Hilarious. Great fun guys ❤❤❤❤
My favorite part 😂❤😂
Im watching with headphones on whilst in bed beside my hubby. I just disturbed him as i laughed out loud and have tears rolling down my face. Stephanie as Isabel is absolutely spot on and so funny once she gets into character too.
Everyone looks great, but I'm unsure about Philip. I never know quite what to make of him.
The lady meant to be Jarrod (sp?) looks just like him too.
I'm not sure about the kitchen ladies, Marie and the moon faced one, I have never known her name and i don't know who she is trying to be.
❤
THIS WAS THEEE BEST CELEBRATION I HAVE SEEN!!!
Awesome
Until I saw Stephanie dressed as her mother, I had not realized how much she looks like her mother. It really is like looking into the future.
Me too ... I had to look twice to realise! 🤣
They looks like twins of different ages…
I hope Stephanie don’t get her strong Debbie downer vibes when she gets older..
I love when her sister is stern with her and put her in her place😂
I can’t believe two sister can be so different .
Chantal is such a wonderful ray of sunshine and her sister.. well just say she isn’t 😂😂😂😂
Only when she tries to butter up Percy😅
It’s actually remarkable that Stephanie has turned out to be such a cheerful person .
I thing I’d move far away if my mom acted like that all the time😢 she always find something to pick in or to be negative about.
My face hurt from smiling through this. The costumes were all so brilliant, even tiny "Dan the Gardener".
@ejt321 go back and watch Stephanie and Gerry in Egypt. It's hilarious. Plus, Stephanie does her thing with history. Wow 👌
Amaury's "🙄......it's a cupboaaard" was so funny.
The running gag with the naming of the things in this episode made me laugh so hard I actually cried.
Haha!!! Thought so too… 😂
Me too!!!
She means armoire🤣Franglais
my brother would have said the exact same thing. lol..
My favorite part was Stephanie as Isabelle carrying the cushions❣️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And all I could thing about was when Stephanie couldn't find those garden cushions once years ago because it turned out later that Mummy had stuffed them in the Bat Basement to help keep out a draft😂
@@mparker6823 Lol !!
“I’ll DO it MYSELF “. Perfect
I remember your nightly drives to do the uploads. Look how far you’ve come. What an achievement. You have accomplished so much! Congratulations to you all, and thank you all for 5 years of entertainment, through good and bad and World wide Pandemic, you have gifted us all with a ray of light in dark times. I wish you continued joy and great success. Big hugs from Houston ❤
It was outside, up the driveway, by a tree. Rain, shine or storm.
Marie and Maria had me in absolute stitches...they totally nailed it down to the mannerisms and everything!
You as Mummy was hysterical 😂, laughing so hard I’m crying 😂
@@jenniferbakos6913 I always get a kick out of Stephanie imitating her Mother.
Haven't laughed like this in ages, Stephanie as Isabel and Maria and Marie as each other were absolutely hilarious.
Perhaps Aumury could add wooden supports to the shelves in the cabinet for extra support so Isobel will not be so worried.
They supported heavy books
@@roselee4445 Thought was just to help satisfy her Mother’s concerns. If shelf dropped on books, there would be very little damage. But, if shelf failed, and fell on crystal and china it could destroy so many irreplaceable pieces. A possible
wooden support, stained to match the interior, in an inconspicuously placed area would give extra reassurance that
the contents would be “more “ protected. Don’t we all want the best for the chateau? It would be heartbreaking to
see lovely pieces broken and so we give our advice. We wish all the best and hope to visit Stephanie’s chateau
one day even though a long trip from Chicago. Best wishes!!!!!
@@dianemccormick6669 of course. I do understand. I have very old piece and afraid to put porcelain because afraid old glue gives way. I was just thinking that it looked like those sturdy shelves. Yes reinforced is better. Some absolutely lovely China and crystal
Among Stephanie’s numerous talents, her tremendous sense of humour comes first. This is why her vlog is so successful and unique. Thank You for entertaining us.
Bravo, Stephanie, pour vos nombreux talents et plus particulièrement pour votre sens de l’humour. Très bon anniversaire aux Chateau Diaries et félicitations à la Team Lalande (Isabelle et Percy, Philip, etc.). Merci de nous divertir
The gifted glassware is beautiful! It's so lovely that they will be cherished.
Congratulations on 5 years and for making so many viewers happy ..You’re a Star indeed…
Congratulations Chateau Diaries! Five stars for all the "impostors."Stephanie, you as Isabelle: hilarious and spot on!!
Amaury is the only person with common sense in the whole place. 😂😂😂
Bawhawha 😂. But we love them all.❤
@ that’s for sure!!!!💖💖💖💖💖
Pavlina as Jared....OHMYGAWD!! SUPERB!! Percy as Nic and Michael Potts, Mummy as Jerry...There are no words!! Stephanie, you did a fabulous mummy! Everyone was wonderfully dressed, such a fun vlog! Happy 5th birthday Chateau de Lalande! I'm happy to say I've been with you since the beginning!

That's also how I discovered her channel, around the same time too!
I found her through "Nicki Positano". Nicki recommended.
It’s hard to believe it’s been 5 years; but I’m so happy you’re sticking to it and keeping us entertained; I’m raising my glass to you all for many more years of CD to come. Congratulations! 🤗
As a follower from the beginning, this was EPIC. HAPPY 5 YEARS!!
Thanks for bringing us just enough insanity to stay sane. Much love!! 💋💋
I am still laughing as I thought Stephanie WAS Mummy at the beginning. My kids keep asking me what I am laughing about !! Loved this so much and am proud to be a patron from the beginning. ❤❤❤❤❤
I laughed and cried when you all came out in Your impersonations, but when Hanni came out I spit my drink out. Classic one guys.🎉

Wow, five years of fun and laughter.
Well done team La Lande 🍾🥂
Oh Stephanie I absolutely love the peacock dress. I hope your mummy has stopped worrying about the weight of the porcelain, I’m sure it can’t possibly weigh as much as the full set of the encyclopaedia Britannica 👍
Happy 5th anniversary, I remember starting watching when I was pregnant with my son and now we watch it together. He loves the flowers and vegetables your growing. ❤
That's amazing!
I love Phillip repeating mommy's comment, "Where are we going to put it?" In her accent. 😂❤
Congratulations on your 5 year anniversary of your RUclips channel. Re-purposing the library cabinets to store porcelain and crystal is a great idea, well done Philip. The imagination of all the party guests is definitely deserving of an Oscar. Fun! Fun! Fun!🙏❤️
Such fun. My laughter woke the family!
Stephanie you stayed in character so beautifully.
Isabelle just brings me so much joy! You have to appreciate her 'subtleness'! And Amaury cracks me up with calling out the naming. What a fabulous theme for the party!

Stephanie - you're hysterical as your mum; lovely...i hope you all laughed and laughed, you look so like her. Thank you for your uplifting video's i have rediscovered...keep enjoying life in your lovely chateau!
That was hysterical, best chateau party ever! Congratulations!!
I was literally amazed at how very much you look like your Mother Steph, when you wore her clothes and hair style. I’ve enjoyed the whole five years, it’s been lovely. Philip’s getup is very interesting 🤨

Thank you so much for your wonderfully entertaining content and wishing you many more years of success. 💞💝💞
Hello sweetheart 💕
Might you've heard anything
About the chateau's outer walls
Will there be any changes to the
Masonry and mortar? Such as a good cleaning and restoration?
That would be such a great opportunity to make the chateau
Shine even better....
Sending you biggest hugs 🤗❤
Another uniquely wonderful LaLande celebration! Before you had strong Wifi in the chateau, Cat and Marie and other volunteers would come out to the car where you were uploading the vlog, ,(for hours!) bringing food and tea! That really showed the espirit de corps of Lalande! Congratulations on your 5th Anniversary!
Lol poor Ameury. His looks say it all 😂
The exasperated way he says, “It’s a cupboard!” Let’s you know how his patience is tested daily.. lol😂
He will build out the whole room once he has finished the Grand Salon and the two bedrooms. At least this gives him time till he has those projects done
❤
Congratulations on 5 years 🎉🎉🎉. Amaury you are someone with his feet on the ground. Yes it is a Bookcase or a Glass / China Cupboard. Good 😊 for you.
Oh! He is a sport! He puts in funny comments 😊
Sure I heard him use a naughty word 😂😂
Thank you so much for inviting us to your lovely party. Congratulations on your success so well deserved. Love to all of you Lalanders.
Congratulations on 5 Years on YT!
Love the China Room!
I love Isabelle. She’s so funny & honest. You’re lucky to have her. I miss my late mother every day.
I agree with previous comments about your momma. We love her and love more of her and her opinions and humor . I just love her. ❤❤❤
Congratulations on 5 years of Chateau Diaries. Their success should be measured by the amount of joy and solace they have brought to people around the world thru some very difficult times.
Thank you to everyone who has been involved.

What a really creative party for your 5th anniversary! Also, the library cupboard looks great with all the beautiful glasses
This was the best party i've ever seen!! 😂❤ Loved every minute of it all! ❤❤❤
To be honest Philip I did the same I have China on the bookshelf and it's totally fine it's been there for years. So basically I just bought bookshelves with glass doors cuz I liked it, pretty and I made a china cabinet out of it.
Absolutely fabulous 😊 great job.
Wow all those changes in just 5 years🎉 Great china/glass cabinet and hilarious party. Stephanie wasn't the only one losing it🤣. Well done and Congratulations on five years, from a 2018 original viewer🙂😂♥
Congratulations Stephanie on your big Five years of The Château Diaries being on RUclips.
That glass cupboard is gorgeous with all the Chrystal and bits of pottery. I love Philips joy in putting it all together and Isabel enjoying the process … just gorgeous!
The transformation driving into the courtyard from years ago is amazing and so grand in my opinion. Davey did well in this design for the château. The walled garden, the forest, the gardens around the chapels, unbelievable and all the helpers along the way have been wonderful in what they did.
Pizza party with champagne sounds perfect to me.
The peacocks are glorious.
Your dressing up as others just cracked me up… I laughed till I cried… what Percy wrote was Spot On! Again my eyes teared up.
You’re all class acts that have brought so much Joy and Laughter to so many of us! A Big Thank You from my heart here in Northern California, USA. Love you all.❤❤❤
That was so much fun! Congratulations all!
The true hero of the chateau diaries is your father Stephanie. His fountain really in many ways has become the symbol of this channel and your chateau. When I think of the chateau I always think of the front courtyard and most importantly the fountain!
To all the team that makes this menagerie of funsters and hard workers a great collection of talent.
That was the funniest VLOG I have seen from La Lande, Stephanie you are your mother to a T, Philip you don't need to worry about what she will look like in 30 years, she is her mother's double,
Amaury and Natie were absolutely hysterical , and your Mum was great, what a fabulous time you all had
🧡💛💚💙💜🤍🖤🤎
Love the cabinets there with the dishes/ china in it. And those encyclopedias could be as heavy as some of the china
100%. !!!!
And the Oscar goes to Maria the Chef for her starring role as Marie the flower lady! Second runner up to Stephanie as Mummy and Marie the flower lady as Maria the Chef! Best costume was a tie between Philip and Mummy!
I laughed so hard I cried. Especially when Hanni came out I really miss her. I hope you have a celebration where everyone can get together again soon. I only wish more people had been able to come. What a fantastic impromptu celebration.
When you started with your channel, i was a student at a University in Germany and my grandmother was alive. Today I'm a business consultant. I follow you for many years. Time flies so fast ☺! Stephanie is her mother 😂💃🏼👩🏻🦳.
This was the best! And I have got to say after having been there 2 weeks ago...watching the videos are even much more enjoyable. Thank you @TheChateauDiaries for all the joy.
Congratulations (5) years of wonderful Vloging! I survived COVID, stressful moving, and even survived Hurricanes watching Chateau Diaries! Thank you Stephanie & Crew! Love, Laugh with friends! Grandmama in Florida, USA 👵🏼
Congrats on 5 years! I’ve been a joyful viewer for at least 3 of them. Thanks for the laughs & memories.
I am laughing out loud each time I rewatch this. Such talented people 😂🎉😂❤❤❤
Congratulations on 5 years of Chateau Diaries! I have watched every single episode and eagerly await new ones. Your party was hysterical! So many great costumes and all done in such a spirit of fun. I have seen a certain resemblance between Stephanie and Mummy but it wasn't until Steph put on her costume that it was shocking how much alike you both look. The hair clip was what pushed it over the edge. Phillip's version of Stephanie was also fantastic.
I cannot believe it has been 5 years that I have watched this channel, time definitely flys by when you are having a blast, congratulations 🎉🎉🎉
This is the BEST Costume Party you ever had! HAPPY 5th Anniversary!
Loved the boldness of Phillip and the uncanny similarities in Stephanie’s costume as Isabelle! Everyone was tremendous. Wow, five years and I still remember your first episode with Jerry popping in and you making the dresses. Congratulations to you all but most importantly to you dear @Stephanie
I never thought I would have been watching someone else’s life for 5 years. Happy birthday us 😊
Oh my. THE CABINETS FULL OF GLASS WEAR AND VERY FANCY DISHES IS MAGNIFICENT. 🎉 U LOOK VERY WEALTHY WITH UR GLASSES AND CRYSTAL STEPHANIE.❤ PHILIP IS AMAZING WITH DECORATING THE CASES WITH CHINA AND CRYSTAL. VERY LOVELY WORK.❤ SO WONDERFUL TO SEE PERCY 💞AND ISABEL BACK AT LALANDE
This party idea might be one of the funniest things I've seen in a very long time - especially Stephanie as Mummy!!! You nailed it. Congratulations on 5 years and 220K subscribers.
Wow! 5 years of Chateau Diaries. Congratulations 🎉 Stephanie and all who inhabit Lalande. Love every new episode and can not imagine life without Chateau Diaries to look forward to. Here is to the next 5 years. 🥂🍾
Hands down - one of my favorite Chateau Diaries ever! You all constantly inspire with love and great ideas - you teach us with perseverance, humility and love. Congrats on 5 years! - wishing you all continued love and abundance!
Thankyou for 5 years of vicariously living in France! Congratulations!

Congratulations! 5 yrs and I think I have followed you for all that time . Loved every moment ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
Happy Anniversary Stephanie. Thank you for sharing and bringing additional joy and laughter in our lives. ❤
Oh my gosh this is the most hilarious thing I have seen in ages. I found myself laughing out loud; I especially enjoy when Stephanie impersonates Isobel:)) It is hard to say who my favourite character was at the party. So many lovely talented people all enjoying a 5th year celebration. I am so happy that I found The Chateau Diaries many years ago. They have brought me endless joy and entertainment. (I can't believe that I was actually in one of them!!:)) Long live La lande xx
5 years !! I’ve watched every single episode, I’ve met Marie in Yorkshire and this has been my favourite episode ever 😂❤🎉
LOL you are all so funny together. Amaury and the china cabinet bookcase. Phillip's glee at organizing the china. Stephanie distracted by the cook book and banter with Philip. Mummy's concern about the weight of the china. It's a wonder anything gets done!
Congratulations!!! 5 years, doesn't feel that long!!! 🎉
To LaLande! The party theme is hilarious. Happy 5th anniversary!
Congratulations Stephanie and all of the La Landers. Stephanie you made me laugh so much with your impersonations of Mummy.
Wanted to add a second comment regarding the book cabinet turned china/glass cabinet. I frequent a lot of estate sales and frequently see full sets of dishes and glassware trying to find a second life. In our current age the fine art of setting a table and sitting down for a meal using these lovely articles has, for the most part, fallen by the wayside. I am so gratified seeing that you not only display them but use them and enjoy them. The nice things in life, the precious things, should be used and enjoyed. Happy 5th to the Chateau Diaries. I found you during the Covid era and you brought me joy during those challenging months. Partly in thanks to you that era brings back good memories for me of vicariously enjoying the life at Lalande and being introduced to all you wonderful people.
