International Wedding Planner In Korea: meet our French director

INTERNATIONAL WEDDING 

PLANNER IN KOREA

MEET OUR FRENCH DIRECTOR



Bonjour,

My name is Elodie and I’m the director in charge of international couples at Wedit.

I come from France, which means that I have a great sense of what is “Chic and Tasty” but I’m also from the Caribbean which means that I’ve got an even better sense of how to party!


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. 

# Marie Claire Idées # 2013 #May-June issue

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.

“ I know Korean Wedding Hall wedding sucks” Tradinoi, a venue also loved by international couples



“ I know Korean Wedding Hall wedding sucks”Tradinoi, a venue also loved by international couples


Our big season of Fall weddings is now over and we were so lucky to celebrate 
amazing ceremonies with our brides and grooms!

Now winter is coming and for the couples who chose to organize their wedding 
during this lower wedding season,
the options for the venue location get restricted to indoor venues.

I know what you are thinking already 
“ indoor venues are mostly wedding halls…. and weddings at wedding hall SUCK !”


Well, some alternative options do exist and today I’d like to introduce you to Tradinoi.


Tradinoi: the venue for a "Chic and Elegant" ceremony.

With its recent opening earlier this year, 
Tradinoi provides services for different types of events. 

They welcomed many private and corporate events for Big companies 
such as Naver or Kakao and offered their services for beauty and 
fashion industries for their Brand launching and Dinner parties. 

Tradinoi also had the opportunity to celebrate many weddings for their first year operating. 



Brides and grooms will appreciate its modern interior 
with big glass windows that enable the natural light to illuminate the venue.

Tradinoi’s high ceilings and it’s beautiful chandelier brings a touch of 
luxury and glamour to events celebration.



Tradinoi: the venue for a customized small wedding.

I know that the greatest wish of international couples is to be able to customize their wedding so that their ceremony will look just like them. With Tradinoi you can have your wish fulfilled.




First, let’s start with the Food! 
Not only is it one of the biggest expense of the wedding budget 
but it’s also one of the biggest concern of international couples,
since they pay a lot of attention to the quality of the food that will be served at their reception.

With Tradinoi and its catering brand, 
you’ll be able to customize your reception menu for an affordable price. 
The fact that they provide vegetarian menu and that they can design menus 
for people who might have restrictions due to religious reasons or allergies, 
is a point that a lot of foreign brides and grooms appreciate.



Second,
An other point that makes brides and grooms frustrated about their wedding preparation is not having the opportunity to personalize their wedding decoration.

Tradinoi offers customized consultation to discuss with the couple 
about their wish in terms of decoration.

They will offer various designs and quotations so that brides and grooms could choose the concept that match them at a reasonable price.




Third, Couples can also use the big LED Media wall at the entrance venue to welcome 
their guests with a video of personal pictures selection and they can also 
benefit from using Tradinoi’s in -house planning service to plan their event.



Tradinoi: the perfect venue for international couples.

Tradinoi is also an English friendly venue!

Being able to communicate smoothly with your venue in English is a worry that many couples have to face while preparing their wedding but since Tradinoi’s weddding director is an English speaker, problems of miscommunication won’t be a burden that foreign brides and grooms will have to go through. Tradinoi’s wedding director takes care personally of international couples so that they could be reassure about their wedding preparation. 


If some wedding venues might be afraid of working with international couples because of the language barrier, Tradinoi’s team is more than happy to welcome those couples and to organized the most beautiful day of their life.





International couples often organize several ceremonies 
(one in Korea and one in an other country) to celebrate with both side's families.

For this reason those couples are very careful with their budget.
However a restricted budget doesn't mean that drastic compromises 
should be done concerning their wedding organization.



So if you are looking for an indoor small wedding that can offer customized services with an affordable cost, do not hesitate any longer and go take a look at Tradinoi !
