Top 10 Planners in France
France doesn’t try too hard — and that’s exactly why weddings here feel so effortlessly beautiful. There’s a certain rhythm to it: long tables under soft light, champagne that never seems to run out, details that feel intentional but never forced. Behind these celebrations are planners who know how to read the moment, shape the atmosphere, and turn ideas into something that feels real, not staged. This list brings together the top ten planners in France who know how to create weddings that feel personal, stylish, and quietly unforgettable.

Lavender and Rose
What’s interesting about Lavender and Rose is how little they rely on a fixed “style.” You won’t see the same wedding repeated in different versions. Instead, each project takes its tone from the couple and the setting, then develops its own direction. Some feel light and relaxed, others more formal or structured — but all of them stay consistent within themselves.
Their role is not overly visible, and that’s intentional. They don’t position themselves at the center of the process. Instead, they shape everything around the couple and step back once it works. That approach creates a different kind of result — one that feels natural, not directed.
Best Events Co
Best Events Co isn’t built like a typical wedding company — and that’s exactly the point. Led by a mother-daughter duo, India Bottomley and Samantha Bottomley, the studio brings together two worlds that rarely meet so seamlessly: instinctive, people-first planning and sharp, design-driven execution. One understands how to guide couples through the unknown, the other knows how to turn that journey into something visually striking and deeply personal.
Everything feels intentional. Nothing is recycled, nothing is done just because “it’s how weddings are usually done.” As they put it, “we genuinely hate recycling ideas,” and you can feel that in every celebration they create — each one shaped around the couple, the place, and the energy of the moment.
Apricity Event Co
Apricity Event Co moves differently. There’s no rush, no noise, no feeling of something being overdone. Instead, everything unfolds quietly, precisely, visually clean, and emotionally grounded. At the center of it is Beryl Beylot, a Paris-based planner whose path began not in weddings, but inside the world of high-end hospitality, where timing, discretion, and detail are everything. That background still shapes the way she works today. You don’t see the effort — you feel the ease. Every element has been considered in advance, every transition flows, every decision supports the overall atmosphere. “The goal is for couples to be completely present,” Beryl shares, and that idea sits at the heart of every celebration she creates.
Her aesthetic doesn’t rely on spectacle. It’s more about control — knowing exactly what to include and, just as importantly, what to leave out. Clean lines, soft palettes, thoughtful materials, spaces that don’t feel overloaded. “Understated luxury and refined simplicity,” as she puts it, becomes less of a concept and more of a standard she naturally holds.
Wanderlust Wedding
Wanderlust Wedding has that rare energy where things feel both deeply personal and effortlessly elevated at the same time. Founded by Lisa Boncristiano and her husband Franck, the studio grew out of instinct, ambition, and a shared decision to go all in from the very beginning. While others were still figuring things out, they were already building — long days, big risks, and a quiet belief that it would all come together.
There’s a strong duality in how they work. Lisa focuses on the guest experience — how people feel across the entire celebration, from arrival to the last moment of the weekend. Franck brings a design perspective shaped by his background in event production, always looking for something unexpected, something that pushes the visual story further. Together, that balance creates weddings that feel immersive, not just beautiful.
Sumptuous Events
Under the direction of Jean Charles Vaneck, each Sumptuous Events’ project begins with a question most planners don’t ask: what should this moment feel like when it’s over? Not how it looks in photos, not how it compares — but how it stays in memory. That mindset changes everything.
There’s a deliberate distance from anything predictable. No standard formulas, no repeated layouts, no “signature look” applied across different weddings. Instead, every celebration is treated as its own world, built from the ground up. “Every detail must have meaning and emotional impact,” Jean Charles says — and he holds that line with precision. If something doesn’t add to the experience, it doesn’t stay.
His team often works within some of the most iconic locations in France, including Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte and Palais Garnier, yet the focus is never on prestige alone. A well-known venue is simply a starting point. The real work lies in reshaping it into something unexpected — something that feels as if it was designed specifically for that one night.
Dream Paris Wedding
Dream Paris Wedding carries a very particular kind of energy — structured, polished, and quietly powerful. Behind it are two sisters, Audrey-Maria Cadio and Vanessa Volatron, who built their work on a balance that’s rare to see done this precisely: one leads the vision, the other secures everything behind it.
Their work is especially strong in multicultural celebrations, where different traditions, expectations, and rhythms need to coexist. These are not easy weddings to design or manage — they require sensitivity, structure, and a clear point of view. “We combine creativity with control,” they say, and that combination is exactly what allows them to navigate complexity without losing elegance.
Madame Wedding Design
Founded by Estelle Bogaert, Madame Wedding Design reflects a mix that doesn’t often happen naturally: a refined taste shaped by styling and editorial work, and a sharp operational mindset built from managing complex environments. That combination changes the outcome. The creative ideas don’t stay abstract — they translate cleanly into something that actually works in real life.
Her role often goes beyond planning. It’s closer to guiding a project from instinct to clarity. Early ideas get tested, refined, sometimes challenged — not to complicate things, but to make them stronger. By the time design decisions are made, they feel grounded, not just beautiful.
The studio works across different formats — from intimate gatherings to multi-day destination celebrations — but the logic behind them stays consistent. Everything needs to hold together: visually, logistically, emotionally. If one part feels disconnected, it’s reworked.
Strawberries & Champagne
Strawberries & Champagne doesn’t stay in one place — and neither do the weddings it creates. Moving between Paris and Beirut, the studio brings a perspective shaped by different cultures, aesthetics, and ways of celebrating. At the center is Jessy Karam, whose work has always been driven by the idea that a wedding is not just an event, but a moment that reshapes a space and stays with people long after it ends.
With over fifteen years in the industry, Jessy has developed a clear instinct for places that hold potential. Not just beautiful venues, but locations with history, character, and a certain emotional weight. Her projects often go beyond the expected — from designing the first wedding at the Greek Theatre of Taormina to reopening spaces like Abbaye des Vaux-de-Cernay or bringing life back to the Grand Sofar Hotel in Lebanon after decades of silence. “What inspires me most is transforming a place that already carries stories into a new one,” she shares.
White Eden Weddings
White Eden Weddings is built around a very clear idea: understated luxury. Not minimal, not simple — but balanced. The kind of elegance that doesn’t need to prove itself. Their celebrations often take place across the South of France and Europe, designed for international couples who want something refined, атмосферне, and easy to experience.
What stands out is their attitude toward collaboration. There’s no ego in the process. “We listen first,” they say — and they mean it. The couple remains at the center of every decision, while the team quietly builds the right structure around them: the right people, the right design, the right rhythm for the celebration.
They keep their calendar intentionally limited, allowing space to stay present in each project. Around ten weddings per year — enough to stay inspired, but never stretched.
Alejandra Poupel Events
Alejandra Poupel Events feels bold from the start. The studio works on a global scale, often stepping into venues that already carry strong identity — historic landmarks, private estates, cultural spaces — and then pushing them further. The goal is not to preserve what’s there, but to build something new within it. Floors change, structures appear, layouts shift, entire environments are reimagined to support one clear idea.
Their work leans into contrast and impact. Large installations, unexpected materials, dramatic compositions — everything is designed to be felt immediately. But behind that visual strength, there is a highly controlled system. These weddings are planned as full productions, where timing, logistics, guest movement, and design are all connected. Everything is part of the same construction.
The right planner doesn’t just organize a wedding — they set the tone for the entire experience. In France, that often means knowing when to elevate a moment and when to let it breathe. The planners on this list understand that balance. They work with the setting, not against it, and create celebrations that feel natural, thoughtful, and genuinely yours.
