Let's get acquainted...
Tell me your story and let's imagine your beautiful moment together
And if shared a long way ?
Dreamer, traveler, joie de vivre, curious, and above all romantic, my heart swung to events after spending almost 15 years in the world of luxury hotels.
During all these years, I had the chance to travel and work in the 4 corners of the world, meet exceptional people, discover magical places and share a lot of emotions and I don't intend to stop there.
My last adventure in the hotel industry happened in Geneva, Switzerland where I have learned " No request is too great and no retail is too small ". This experience made me want to apply everything I learned in the organization and fly on my own. However, we do not improvise wedding planner overnight. I packed my bags and left in the south of France follow a 3-month certified training at the Jaelys School in Aix-en-Provence, France. During this training, in addition to having met a person who is me dear, I fell in love with the region and here I am 3 months later in La Ciotat. Magnificent city on the Mediterranean coast between Marseille and Toulon.
As a true epicurean, I appreciate above all the small pleasures of life, harmony, smiles and tears of joy.
To be able to take advantage of each moment that is offered to us and where nothing is left randomly is part of my daily life. What I like above all is to see the happiness in people's eyes.
And here I am ready to meet you, listen to your beautiful story and above all to accompany you for several days, months, even years with a touch of madness so that your event is authentic and such than you imagined!
It's all a matter of feeling
Besides being your Wedding & Event Planner, lean on me and i promise you can count on me before, during and after the day of your event.
A meeting will be enough to know if there is a chemistry between us to be able to go a long way together in this beautiful adventure.
Let the magic happen and it's up to us to write the rest …
