We hired Scheherazade and her team to organize our turnkey wedding (venue, meal, music), and everything was absolutely perfect. It was without a doubt the best day of our lives. Living over 800 km away, we had some initial concerns, but everything was managed from start to finish with remarkable professionalism by Scheherazade, Aurélie, and the entire team. We didn't have to worry about a thing; everything was perfectly organized and coordinated. The venue was magnificent, the meal delicious, and the music fantastic. We were able to fully enjoy our day and evening with complete peace of mind. All our guests were captivated by the magic of the venue and the professionalism of the staff! The servers were very pleasant, and the nannies also managed the children perfectly. A huge thank you for this unforgettable moment. We wholeheartedly recommend this vendor and will always be grateful to Scheherazade and her entire team!

My fiancé and I chose "L'Occidentale" to celebrate our wedding on October 11th, and it was one of the best choices of our lives! Schéhérazade and her exceptional team made our dreams come true... An absolutely perfect day, forever etched in our hearts and memories! The venue itself is incredibly beautiful, nestled in a peaceful, verdant setting, with a magnificent garden, several spaces (for the secular ceremony and cocktail hour), and a lovely pool, perfect for photos! The reception hall is breathtaking... we chose to decorate it in white and gold, and thanks to the suggestions and work of Schéhérazade and her magic team, the result exceeded all our expectations... From the table decorations to the floral arrangements, from the lighting to the sound, everything was perfect... our guests were blown away! The icing on the cake: an excellent dinner, served by a team that was both discreet and attentive, highly professional, and exceptionally kind. Finally, a special mention to Scheherazade, who officiated our secular ceremony: thanks to her exceptional listening skills and extraordinary sensitivity, she captured the essence of our story, of our relationship itself, and created a ceremony that spoke to us and perfectly reflected who we are, funny and touching at the same time. THANK YOU Scheherazade for this unforgettable moment, we love you ❤️ Future brides, if you are looking for a charming venue with a magical atmosphere, impeccable organization down to the smallest detail (so you can simply enjoy your day), and a fantastic team that is by your side from the first meeting until the end of the night on your wedding day, look no further... L'Occidentale is exactly what you need!
