Organize your wedding with The MR Agency

2021 February

2020 and 2021 are very particular years for those hoping to unite. As the coronavirus crushed many couples plans last spring, many have decided to postpone their ceremonies to this year and next. The challenge for wedding service providers is therefore to be able to satisfy both the clients who originally planned to wed in 2020, as well as work with couples who are beginning “from the start.”

With 5 years of professional experience in events organization and numerous collaborations with renowned providers and clients such as Dior, Chanel, Hermès and Elie Saab, MR Agency’s team is now dedicated to accompanying you during the organisation of your wedding in Paris. Supported directly by the founder of the agency, MR Agency Wedding’s team offers a full-service wedding event planning and venue sourcing.   In addition to our unique locations, as a Parisian based agency, we can assure you to put in place the most professional solution for your most extravagant desires.

Whether you are just starting your preparations or have already advanced in aspects of the planning of this important day, MR Agency Wedding is at your disposition during the major steps of the organization of your event.

The first 3 steps:

1 – Set the Date

Whether you are planning a religious or a secular ceremony, confirm the availabilities in your local City Hall in order to set the date.  The legal ceremony can, but does not have to be the same day as the religious or festive celebration that you are planning. Take these factors into account when deciding upon the date.

Despite delays and date changes due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there are still possibilities for 2021. MR Agency can assist you in applying to a City Hall outside of your resident district if needed. 

If you are looking towards 2022, beware of certain periods when the majority of Parisian hotels and establishments can be full, such as during fashion weeks and the major trade shows, which are hopefully returning back to Paris post-Covid.

2 – Choice of the Reception Venue

The venue is the memorable location where your union will be celebrated with family and friends.  Even if you opt for a more “intimate” format due to the current sanitary recommendations, don’t neglect the importance of your choice.

This is one of the first steps in planning your wedding and this choice will impact the rest of the preparation process. The MR Agency Wedding has a large network of its own venues and partner locations in Paris and surrounding areas to facilitate and offer you the place of your dreams. Among the private mansions, hotels, castles and exceptional apartments, the agency has opened its doors of the Pavillon Rive Gauche last September. This is a space in the heart of Paris, close to Saint Germain des Près, with a total surface area of ​​420m2 that is authorized to host public events until 2am. Together with other agency location proposals, Pavillon Rive Gauche is an ideal space that can be transformed into several types of decors to celebrate your union.

3 – Invitations Preparation

As soon as the place is confirmed and the chosen date is suitable for your family and loved ones, it is time to start working on invitations. It is important to keep in mind that the invitations, as well as wedding announcements should be made in advance, to receive responses early enough, and adapt your wedding reception to a more precise number of guests.

Usually, the best time frame to do so is between three to four months before the big day. In this current Covid-19 period, guests are more flexible to be contacted ideally 2 months in advance for the summer and fall seasons. Either way, setting a deadline will provide you with needed answers. As an example, when choosing and confirming the caterer, the exact number of guests should be set at least 15 days prior to the reception.

Let’s take a look at the details …

1- Food & beverage

Determine what you would ideally like to do: a cocktail event with service on passing trays, a buffet, a seated dinner or a clever mix of all three. Depending on your budget, it is possible to organize culinary animations, such as an oyster bar or an Iberico ham station, for example. Our team is always on the lookout for the best Parisian flavours and the latest trendy addresses in the region to assist you through an exclusive network of caterers, chefs, bartenders and wine merchants.

2- The decorations

The choice of decoration is essential for your wedding day and it is important to work closely with a professional on the mood-board.

Once the theme of your wedding is determined, each detail is decided upon in order to be both memorable onsite and in order for your photos stand out.

Decoration includes all table detailing, where so much can be achieved via the selection of farm style plates to fine china.  It is also important to pay special attention to the seating plan, which can add to or detract from the atmosphere of the wedding reception.

The MR Agency Wedding has an in-house production team, who collaborates with the best external service providers.  Together, we will create the decor of your dreams, based on your style whether it is traditional, modern, bohemian or minimalist in style.

3- Photographer and Animations

A wedding photographer and professional cameraman knows how to bring an appreciable artistic touch, in addition to the great number of photos that your guests will be taking on the day of the event. The photos will hang in your home for years to come and can also be used when sending out the “thank you” letters.

Other professionals to book for the event include DJs, music bands, professional dancers, etc. MR Agency Wedding works with a network of trusted collaborators.
