Alejandra Poupel Events: Mastering Wedding Elegance

In the labyrinth of love's expressions, few artisans possess the rare talent to translate ephemeral feelings into tangible memories. Alejandra Poupel Events, a maestro of luxury wedding planning, orchestrates symphonies of emotion, elegance, and excellence across Europe's most iconic venues. Born in Nicaragua, raised in Miami, and now a Parisienne by heart, Alejandra's story is a testament to love's power to chart the course of our lives. We delve into the heart and mind of this visionary to uncover the layers of passion, precision, and creativity that define her illustrious career.

The Genesis of a Dream

“I fell in love with a French man, and that brought me to Paris,” Alejandra begins, tracing the roots of her journey. Her transition from the prestigious halls of Christie's auction house to the world of wedding planning was not immediate. It was the warmth of family life, a pause to raise her daughters, and a stint in charity work that revealed her calling. “Events were a natural direction,” she reflects, “once my girls were leaving for university, I decided to open my company.”

Crafting the Unforgettable

What drives Alejandra is not merely the planning but the creation of unparalleled experiences. “Getting close to the most amazing families and connecting with them, the creative liberty, and the fact that every event is unique,” she shares, encapsulates the essence of her passion. Her philosophy? “Delivering exceptional client experiences and collaboration” to bring each couple's vision to life. Every wedding is a unique narrative, a story waiting to be told through the meticulous orchestration of every detail.

Bespoke Elegance

In the realm of luxury weddings, one size does not fit all. “We only work on bespoke projects since every client is different,” Alejandra states, highlighting the tailored approach that distinguishes Alejandra Poupel Events. From venue scouting across Europe to the final flourishes of event design, her team ensures a seamless, personalized experience. “We take care of everything from A to Z,” she assures, underscoring the comprehensive nature of their services.

A Symphony of Services

Alejandra's team goes beyond the conventional, offering services that encapsulate the essence of luxury. With a hands-on approach, they transform venues like Opera Garnier and Villa Ephrussi into personalized paradises. “We create tailor-made budget simulations and presentations…we work mostly in destination events,” Alejandra explains, revealing the global appeal of her brand. 

Memorable Moments

Every wedding leaves an imprint on her heart, but some connections run deeper. “The most memorable is the one that I connected the most with the clients,” Alejandra shares, emphasizing the personal touch that makes each event special. 

Vision into Reality 

Alejandra's approach is meticulous and collaborative, ensuring dreams not only take flight but soar. From the initial venue presentations to the final selection of bands and caterers, her process is detailed and deliberate. “We organize Zoom calls every week…we allow them to dream big, and then we fuse their personalities in the event,” she reveals, offering insight into her methodical yet imaginative planning process.

Advice from the Heart  

To those embarking on their wedding planning journey, Alejandra offers sage advice: “Before signing a venue make sure you know all the hidden costs, for example, I work mostly in monuments and if you work in these venues you need to bring protection for flooring and kitchens and all the furniture, etc. so if you want a lower budget you can go to a hotel venue that has all of these things already, also be sure to plan your D day with lots of time for the bride and keep the bride in a bubble with the least people to approach the bride. Also, let's work together a lot and let me get to know you as much as possible, and then on the day enjoy every minute because it goes by fast and what's important is to enjoy the moment.” Her words underscore the importance of mindfulness and joy amid wedding festivities.

The Dream Venue

Despite her extensive experience, there remains a venue that eludes her grasp yet sparks her imagination: “Hotel du Cap Eden Roc is a venue I have almost planned in 3 times, but it has not happened, and I can't wait to plan in the magical aisle of this iconic hotel.”
