English-speaking wedding planner in France
Plan your Champagne wedding in English, without the friction
Organising a wedding abroad is demanding enough. Doing it in a language you do not fully master, with vendors who only speak French, quietly turns a beautiful project into a source of stress.
With Made By Justine, every exchange happens in clear, fluent English. Your questions, your contracts, your timeline and your vendor conversations are handled and explained on your side, so nothing important is ever lost in translation.
The approach is warm and refreshingly down to earth. No stiff, over-formal luxury script and no pressure to fit a predefined formula, just honest guidance and a wedding that feels genuinely like you.
What this changes for you
- All planning, calls and documents handled in fluent English.
- French vendors briefed and coordinated on your behalf.
- French wedding customs and contracts explained clearly.
- A single, calm point of contact across time zones.
- A simple, human approach instead of a rigid luxury formula.
Destination wedding planner in Champagne
A refined wedding, planned locally and guided from abroad
Choosing Champagne for your wedding means choosing more than a destination. It means offering your guests a complete experience: rolling vineyards, historic estates, champagne houses, French hospitality and a setting with a true sense of place, around 45 minutes from Paris by train.
When you are planning from abroad, the real challenge is not finding beautiful ideas. It is turning those ideas into a realistic, coherent and perfectly timed celebration, with vendors you can trust and a schedule that actually holds on the day.
That is exactly where Made By Justine comes in: local knowledge of Reims and Épernay, a trusted vendor network, structured planning and a calm presence before, during and after your wedding day. To picture the region first, start with our complete guide to getting married in Champagne.

A premium, considered approach
Is this the right level of service for your wedding?
Made By Justine is a premium wedding planning service, built for couples who see their wedding as a genuine experience, not just a box to tick. Our couples plan refined, multi-vendor celebrations in Champagne, where the venue, the catering, the vendors and the wider guest experience all matter. This focus lets us protect quality, coordination and peace of mind rather than chasing the lowest possible price.
The goal is never to make your wedding more expensive. It is to make every decision count, so your budget goes exactly where it creates the most beauty, comfort and emotion.
Welcome dinner & brunch
Turn your wedding into a complete guest experience
For most international couples, the wedding is not only one day. It is a journey shared with loved ones who have travelled to France to celebrate with you.
A welcome dinner creates connection before the wedding. The wedding day becomes the emotional centre. The brunch lets everyone slow down, reconnect and leave with a deeper sense of memory.
Made By Justine can help you imagine and coordinate these extra moments so the whole weekend feels coherent, elegant and easy to live.
Our process
How we help you plan from abroad
A destination wedding needs a clear process. The goal is simple: helping you move forward with confidence, even when you are hundreds of kilometres from Champagne.
Understanding your vision
We start with your story, your priorities and your guests. Choosing vendors comes later. First we define what should make this wedding feel like yours.
Building the right direction
Venue, format, rhythm, guest experience and budget are clarified early, so every following decision fits a coherent framework.
Selecting trusted vendors
Photographer, florist, caterer, music, beauty team and more: we help you build a reliable vendor team in Champagne, aligned with your style.
Centralising communication
One team keeps the overview, follows every exchange in English, anticipates questions and keeps each key person aligned.
Creating the detailed timeline
The wedding day and the surrounding moments are structured with precision, from vendor arrival and setup to dinner, speeches and party.
Being present on site
On the day itself, the team coordinates the timeline, the vendors and the logistics, so you and your guests can live the celebration fully.
