We have spent the lst two days just talking about the wedding and how perfect it was. I can not tell you how many people came up to us on the boat the day after and just said: ‘Wow! this has been by far the best wedding I have ever gone to and probably will go to!’ I told them we get some credit but really its because of the team at haute wedding thanks Anna!!

Embarking on the journey of planning a wedding abroad in France was no small task, but once we matched with Monica we were immediately put at ease! Right away Monica got us organized by setting a timeline to book vendors and scheduling meetings to discuss every detail of our dream wedding. Since we were not fluent in French, we were beyond thankful to have Monica to communicate and facilitate all of our contracts. Monica’s attention to detail is unsurpassed, she takes the time to ensure nothing is overlooked and everything is triple checked. Haute Wedding has incredible connections that cannot be sourced on your own. For every role that we needed to fill, they provided us with a range of curated options that they knew to be dependable and outstanding. We can’t thank Monica and her team enough for giving us the most amazing photographer, officiant, florists, venues, and so much more!
To say Monica went above and beyond for our wedding would be a huge understatement. When we were faced with postponing or wedding due to the pandemic, Monica acted quickly and resolved an impossible situation. She was able to have all our contracts pushed to the new date without incurring any penalties or fees – and she not only did this once but twice! Once we reached our much-awaited wedding weekend, Monica had the schedule planned out precisely. She handled everything behind the scenes and we never had any worry that all would go accordingly. When I think back to our rehearsal and wedding, I am filled with happiness and joy remembering how perfect it all was! Thank you Monica with all our hearts for making our once-in-a-lifetime moments truly unforgettable!
