About Me:

I am a New York city based wedding planner. Before opening Atelier Weddings I spent several years as a hotelier. It's a terrific job! We live in New York, on the Upper West Side, not far from the hotel where we were married. Adam Curry, the original MTV VJ and podcast creator, officiated at our wedding. I also love food and cooking, and I'm sure that growing up in France has a lot to do with that. I use my Ipod to watch cooking shows (yes, I'm a fan of Top Chef!) I also do all our grocery shopping, usually at Fairway, perhaps one of the most extraordinary grocery stores in the country (where else can you find 47 different types of sea salt?) Travel is important to us, our favorite destinations are Santa Fe, New Mexico (Cafe Pasquals for breakfast, Maria's for green chili and Margaritas) and Paris (where just about any restaurant will make us happy!)

About My Business

We plan weddings; our approach is practical and no-nonsense. Our clients want a fabulous wedding, they want to plan smartly, and they want it to come in on budget.

My Proudest Accomplishment

Our 7 year old daughter. She prefers Sushi to McDonalds. Her favorites are ikura, tobiko and tuna.

My Favorite Pasttime

Cooking

Why I Love My Profession

Relationships; on one side, I am helping people put together the most important event of their lives. On the other side I am working with immensely talented vendors who share my passion for their work and the "client experience."
