After the Luberon, then?
Our family, a multi-generational group, is vacationing in a house for a week, in the Luberon, near Joucas. After we spend our week together, we are all headed to Aix for 2 last nights together, and then our kids/ grandkids will head home from MRS. My husband and I have another 8 days to do whatever we want and are considering staying on for a couple of days/nights in Aix (thoughts—or should we move on?) Then we are considering driving to Uzès and staying 3-4 nights. Our last 2 nights will be in Marseille before we head home. I would really appreciate any feedback you all might have.

Uzes would be a good complement. You might even spend 4 nights there, and 4 nights near Vaison. You didn't mention the "well known" St Remy - so I guess you've already visited this village.
We were in the Luberon for a month this past June. Attached is my Provence itinerary - with updates from our recent trip there.
Did I meet you in the Dordogne about 10-15 years ago??

Hi Stu—yes we did meet! Four couples (I think) all had lunch and then drove to one of the couple’s home and visited some more over a few glasses of wine. I think it was 2009–so 15 years ago!
We stayed in St. Remy for a week 2 years ago so are looking for a new place to explore. We have not been to Aix and thought that staying there a few nights would be better than just a day trip. Uzes sounds like it is picturesque, has good markets, boutiques, and restaurants—I am hoping 3-4 nights there will be just right.
I have your updated guide and am referring to it frequently!

Uzes vs Aix---tough call! Both excellent places to base. Each have excellent markets and more.
Personally Wren, I'd go with one of those two.....or both.
*if you want, we have an excellent rental to recco in Uzes.
I am done. the decisions

After Luberon, and before going to Marseille, I would visit the Alpilles.
It is has beautiful as Luberon and there are some splendid places like Eygalières or Saint-Rémy de Provence : https://www.provenceweb.fr/e/bouches/stremy/stremy.htm
