a sur mesure approach

Frequently asked questions

what is your approach?

Our approach is rooted in a deep understanding of immersive, once in a lifetime experiences. At the heart of destination weddings is a desire for truly remarkable, elevated experiences exploring the sights, sounds, and flavors of your destination celebrating your one of a kind love story. Our specialty lies in creating bespoke experiences you and your guests will remember for a lifetime.

what are your service areas?

While we focus on France destinations, no destination is too far and we have travelled from the exclusive hôtels of Paris, to the resplendent châteaux of the French countryside, to the vibrant shores of Positano, to the sun-drenched hills of Southern California, to the mountains of Colorado, and to the Neoclassical mansions of Washington, D.C. Visit our Journal for some of our favorite destinations.

can you assist with venue sourcing?

If a venue has not already been selected, we guide our clients through the venue sourcing process to find the location best suited to your vision. Your choice of venue is incredibly important, as it determines many other factors about your wedding, and every type of venue has their own unique logistic considerations.  

Do you service intimate events?

We service weddings and events of all scopes, from getaway elopements to intimate gatherings to lavish soirées. Intimate events and the detailed guest experiences they allow are one of our specialities. See Soyoung and Byung Kyu's intimate wedding as seen in Martha Stewart Weddings.
