Full Wedding Planning or Day-Of Coordination: Which Fits Your Champagne Wedding?
One of the first questions couples ask when planning a wedding in Champagne is simple: how much support do we actually need?
Some want a partner involved from the very first idea. Others have already chosen their venue and their vendors, and simply want a calm, experienced team to run the day itself.
There is no single right answer. It depends on your timeline, on how involved you want to be, and on how comfortable you feel organizing a wedding in France. Here is how the three levels of support offered by Made By Justine differ, so you can identify which one fits your project.
Full Wedding Planning: for couples who want to be guided from the start
Full Wedding Planning, our “Chardonnay” package, is built for couples who want to entrust the complete organization of their wedding to a reliable team, while staying involved in the decisions that matter most to them.
- Vendor research tailored to your needs, with no restrictions
- Made By Justine as your single point of contact for every exchange
- A wedding-day timeline built together with you and your vendors
- A team of two to three people on site, from early morning until your first dance
Best suited for: couples planning from abroad, couples with limited time, or anyone who wants to enjoy the preparations without carrying the full mental load.
Day-Of Coordination: for couples who have already done the groundwork
Day-Of Coordination, our “Pinot Meunier” package, is designed for couples who have already selected their vendors and planned the main elements themselves, but want an experienced team to take over the final coordination.
- You choose your vendors and share the signed contracts and quotes with us
- We contact every vendor two to three months before the wedding to build the full timeline
- We reach out to your loved ones so that everything is ready for the big day
- A team of two to three people on site, managing every key moment of the day
Best suited for: couples who enjoy planning but do not want to manage logistics on the day itself, or who already have a clear vision and simply need it executed flawlessly.
Our Signature Offer: a full wedding weekend in Champagne
Our Signature Offer, the “millésime” package, extends the celebration across three days: a welcome dinner, the wedding day and a brunch the morning after.
It is particularly relevant for couples whose guests are traveling from across France and from abroad, and who want to offer them more than a single day.
- Research and selection of every vendor you need, with no limit in number
- Full planning follow-up, with Made By Justine as your main contact throughout
- Our team on site across all three days, adapting to the scenography of each moment
- Vendor management before and after each key moment (schedules, setup, timeline, breakdown, returns)
Best suited for: destination weddings, international guest lists, and couples who see their wedding as a full shared experience rather than a single event.
Options: extending the celebration beyond the wedding day
You do not have to choose the Signature Offer to add an extra moment to your weekend. Two options can be added to Full Wedding Planning or Day-Of Coordination, so you can shape the celebration at your own pace.
Welcome Dinner Option
A cocktail dinner, a seated dinner or a Champagne cellar tour the evening before, to gather your close ones or all of your guests. We handle the vendor research, the setup and the tidying up.
Brunch Option
A last shared moment the morning after dancing all night. We take care of the vendor research, the coordination, the room reset, the cleanup and the vendor returns if needed.
These options are available only to couples who have already booked one of our packages.
The point is never to add more services than you need. It is to place our support exactly where it takes the weight off your shoulders, so you can enjoy every moment of your wedding.
Still not sure which one fits?
The choice usually comes down to two questions: how much of the planning do you want to handle yourself, and how many days do you want the celebration to cover? Everything else follows from there.
If you are still hesitating, the simplest next step is a conversation. You can also discover our approach as a wedding planner in Champagne, France, or read our complete guide to getting married in Champagne.
Let’s find the right level of support for your wedding
Every project is different, and the right package is rarely obvious from a list alone. Tell us about your venue, your guests and your timeline, and we will tell you honestly which level of support makes sense.
The entire planning process can be handled in fluent English, from the first call to your last dance.
