INTERNATIONAL WEDDING 

PLANNER IN KOREA

MEET OUR FRENCH DIRECTOR

My adventure with Wedit started at the beginning of 2019.I know it might sound surprising but for me working at Wedit isn’t a coincidence since I patiently prepared for 2 years to apply and came to Korea with the only goal of getting hired at this company.
The reason for such a unique purpose was that I believed Wedit was the only company that truly wanted to change the wedding culture in Korea but also paid a special attention to international couples, knowing that they have different expectations from Koreans.
 I know what you might be thinking: who is crazy enough to move on the other side of the world just to work for a wedding startup company? Well I guess….. Me ^^

My background in interior design and in textile design as well as my experience in the hosting industry in Paris gave me strong base for this work. 

My interest in wedding planning started to grow when I did a collaboration with the French magazine Marie Claire Idées. 

Marie Claire’s editorial team contacted my university to work together on their issue of May-June 2013 and gave us the opportunity to create a beautiful project inspired by the theme of wedding.

I designed a photobooth made in paper, inspired by nature and floral cutouts that bride and grooms could make themselves as a DIY project for their wedding. 

This project gave me a lot of motivation to pursue a career in the wedding industry.

After one year working at Wedit, I’ve learned and experienced so much that I’m now sure that my determination to be a part this company was the best decision I took in my life.

My first year as a wedding director was incredible and I’ve been lucky to work with adorable brides & grooms. They each had they own color, their own dream event in mind. I’m grateful for the trust they did put into me for taking care of one of the most important day of their life.

A big part of my work relies on communication. I regularly need to be in touch with my brides and grooms who often live abroad as well as I need to have a good contact with my vendors (koreans and foreigners) in order to successfully prepare each project. For this, I mostly communicate in English and Korean with my clients and vendors but sometimes I get the opportunity to use my mother tongue, French. 

I’ve been told by all the vendors I’ve worked with that I’m the only foreigner /westerner doing this work in Korea. I guess I should be proud of this title. In fact, it makes me really motivated to keep trying my best and share with them my knowledge of foreign wedding's culture so that they could also understand better international couples.

As a foreigner working in the wedding industry, in Korea, things could be challenging time to time but with the support of Wedit team I was able to bring joy and happiness to the couples I worked with.
