Bonjour !
Every couple is unique and so are your needs for a wedding planner. I’m here to help you!
I can take care of liaising with the French vendors and make your destination wedding a stress-free experience.
The key thing for me is to really get to know you, so that your personality and style shine through on the day.
The South-West of France has been my home for the past 18 years. I live in a beautiful stone house surrounded by fields of sunflowers and vineyards and I can honestly say that I’m living the best life. As the French would say… “la vie est belle”. The local countryside here is unspoilt, the sunsets are breathtaking and the hilltop villages are quaint and rustic. Whilst training to be a french chef, I was lucky enough to shadow an amazing chef who catered for weddings in France. If things got crazy, I sometimes had to give a helping hand out front and that’s where I discovered my love for weddings! So, I decided to change direction, follow my passion for weddings and kickstart my career as a planner on Lake Como.
Missing the French “Joie de vivre”, I decided to return to my hometown of Albi and launch “Weddings by Isabella Jayne”. I’ve always had an incredible attention to detail, the ability to juggle tasks and impeccable organisational skills, so wedding planning is the perfect fit for me! It’s the most rewarding job.
I get to spend months chatting to some amazing couples, finding out all about how they met and how they envisage celebrating their love… and my aim is to bring their ideas to life.
Let’s start planning your special day together!
PACKAGES:
- FINAL MONTH MANAGEMENT:
This package is perfect if you want to take care of the planning but are looking for a wedding professional to handle the final month leading up to the big day. This leaves you more time to have fun and enjoy the last few weeks!
We discuss your plans together at an initial meeting, ideally a year before the wedding. At this point you will receive your checklist of “jobs to do”! Four weeks prior to your wedding, I will take control, creating a detailed time schedule and liaising with all of your suppliers.
On your special day, I’m there to greet your vendors and oversee the venue set-up. My job is to make sure your day flows exactly how you had planned.
- FULL WEDDING PLANNING:
Are you overwhelmed by the thought of planning a wedding in France? If so, I can take care of everything from beginning to end.
Over the months, I guide you step by step through the planning process, with unlimited support, from sourcing and booking vendors, budget tracking, assisting the florist with designs, seating charts, etc… to “on the day” management.
A pair of professional hands and eyes to oversee your important day can really make a difference, providing a fun, stress-free experience allowing you to focus on marrying the love of your life!
