Do I need a planner for my destination wedding in Paris?

Eliminate stress and enjoy a journey that engages all senses.

Enlisting a resourceful event planner for your dream wedding in Paris is almost obligatory. You should choose the level of planning assistance that best suits your needs and budget. We offer anything from day-of coordination to VIP full-service wedding planning and design.

When you’re operating on a tight budget, have plenty of time, and are comfortable organizing things, a day-of coordinator may suffice. Expect a coordinator to develop a timeline and be on-site during your Big Day to ensure everything runs smoothly. Depending on the level of involvement, some coordinators also oversee the event’s set-up and breakdown.

However, most brides are well-advised to invest in the best possible full-service destination wedding planning—a professional who will understand your vision and accompany you from start to finish. A top-notch full-service planner genuinely cares about your happiness and will:

  • Get to know you as a couple—the love story, style, initial ideas, and, importantly, a deep understanding of your vision;
  • Create and manage your wedding budget, including tracking retainers and payments for all vendors;
  • Assist in selecting the perfect venue that reflects your vibe and style, accommodates the size of your party, and sets the stage for the ultimate French luxury wedding;
  • Attend venue visits and menu tastings;
  • Brainstorm with your floral designer to infuse a sumptuous events design with personal touches that contribute to the overall aesthetic you’re after;
  • Develop and stress-test a detailed wedding timeline, production schedule, and floor plans;
  • Manage the guest list and RSVPs, every piece of stationery you’ll need, and recommend a stylish, unique wedding website,..;
  • Identify, negotiate with, and contract the most experienced and suitable wedding vendors;
  • Plan and coordinate group activities, including transportation and hotel room blocks;
  • Complete supervision of the wedding day celebrations, the rehearsal dinner, and other activities.

I came across many planners, but Kiss Me in Paris stood out with a plethora of options on their well-maintained website. My initial questions were answered promptly by the support team. Chantelle and Eden masterfully planned the event while perfectly capturing our vision. Our meetings were always quick and productive. I cannot thank them enough!

The Ultimate Checklist for Your Destination Wedding in Paris?

15 Expert Tips.

Destination wedding planning involves many similar steps to planning a local wedding but with additional to-dos and a different timeline depending on your wedding. We recommend starting the process as early as possible since some tasks may take longer when planning from thousands of miles away and across time zones and languages.

  1. Decide on Paris as your destination. This one is pretty straightforward. Suppose you love the idea of a French wedding and have your heart set on the City of Lights. Then factor in costs for travel and accommodations, several trips to Paris, and ease of access for friends and family.
  2. Hire the best American destination wedding planner you can afford. Doing so early in the planning cycle will save you costly missteps and time while gaining priceless access to venues and vendors.
  3. Set a realistic wedding budget. This should always be one of the first steps in destination wedding planning. Consider travel costs, accommodations, vendors, venue, and planning commission… A resourceful Parisian event planner can give you a reality check and help you prioritize based on your vision and preferences.
  4. Choose a wedding date. No wedding date means you cannot confidently book vendors, send out Save-the-Dates, etc. Go with a date that accounts for seasonality, including related availability and prices. Ultimately, your choice of wedding venue determines the date.
  5. Understand French legal requirements (optional). Most of our couples are concerned with the so-called religious ceremony and the party of their lives. However, suppose you intend to have your marriage legally recognized. In that case, you should familiarize yourself with the Residency requirement, the publication of marriage banns, and a host of translated and authenticated documents.
  6. Visit Paris. In coordination with your event planner, set up a series of venue visits and menu tastings as soon as possible. Then, head over to France to scout venues and meet potential vendors. Making multiple trips to Paris leading to your Big Day is not unusual.
  7. Lock in the perfect wedding venue. Okay, this is a big one—budget-wise and also to set the tone for your style, vibe, and how your celebrations will be remembered. Ensure that your preferred venue can accommodate the size of your guestlist and offers the layouts you need for the ceremony, reception, and party.
  8. Send out your Save-the-Dates. As you might imagine, destination weddings require substantially greater planning horizons for your guests. Give your friends and families ample time to request days off, plan their travel to Paris (and perhaps onward travel within Europe), secure caretakers for their pets, etc. Aim to send out the Save-the-Dates up to 1 year in advance.
  9. Book your key wedding vendors. If a wedding professional is good enough for one of the most important days of your life, chances are said professional will be in demand and book out early. Whether it’s your photographer, videographer, floral designer, caterer, live band, beauty artist, officiant, cake, transportation, or performers, ask your event planner to make recommendations and set up Zoom calls or in-person interviews when possible.
  10. Secure accommodations for yourself, and block discounted rooms for your guests.
  11. Decide on your ceremony & reception design. In close coordination with your event planner and floral designer, decide on the style, look, and production level that reflects your vibe and works within your wedding budget. Flowers in France tend to be significantly more expensive than in the U.S. and many other countries. That said, the look and feel of your ceremony and reception spaces will set the stage for the ultimate French luxury wedding and powerfully contribute to the overall aesthetic.
  12. Send out invitations. Unless you think physical stationery is an unnecessary drag on the environment, send out your invites at least 3-6 months before the wedding.
  13. Plan memorable guest activities around greater Paris. Chances are your guests are traveling from far away and will want to explore greater Paris, including Disneyland, Versailles, the Loire Valley, Champagne tastings, and other attractions. It’s a good gesture (and almost expected) to plan activities for your guests and suggest fun things during their stay.
  14. Finalize and stress-test the details. They say the Devil is in the details. Figure out how to safely ship your gown to Paris and keep it wrinkle-free for your Big Day. Pack your wedding bands. Rehearse your vows, practice your first dance and first kiss, and organize loads of Champagne, macarons, and Parisian details for your bridal suite, …
  15. Plan to get to Paris early. We recommend arriving in the City of Love at least one week before the wedding festivities kick off. You’ll get to relax, adjust your biorhythm, and handle last-minute issues that may arise.
