ABOUT NATHALIE

I am the girl who thought she’d be the next legal eagle Ally McBeal, wardrobe included. After 8 years of practicing at top law firms in Miami and clerking for a Federal Judge, I realized it wasn’t for me. I was successful, but not inspired. I needed to create. I needed to tell stories. One day I decided it would be my last day in a law firm. The next day, Luxe Fête Event Planning and Design Studio was born. I haven’t looked back since.

I am blessed to live a life filled with passion and gratitude. Every day I get to interact with amazing people who entrust me and my team with the task of producing their dream event, be it a corporate event, wedding, offsite retreat, gala, brand activation or social celebration. Oftentimes I feel like I am the one who is dreaming. I have been recognized as an “industry innovator” and “event guru” because of my unique and fresh design approach. My team executes like none other.

My family is my everything. If you find me laughing or smiling out of the blue, it is likely because I am thinking of my husband and two daughters. 

TWO THINGS

Two everyday things I could not live without:
Art and music.

Two of my favorite songs:
Turn Your Lights Down Low, Bob Marley and Casta Diva (From Bellini’s Opera “Norma”) Paris 1958 with Maria Callas

Two snacks I could eat every day:
Macarons from La Durée and warm ready bake chewy chocolate chip cookies from Pillsbury.

Two of my favorite hotels:
Amanoi in Vietnam and Villa San Michele in Florence.

Two of my favorite cities:
Cape Town and Florence.

Two of my favorite beaches:
Praia de São José in Itacaré, Brasil and Magen’s Bay in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands.

Two important goals:
Serve Haiti (my beloved rich country) and mentor others in the way that I have been mentored.

Two of my favorite books:
Les Misérables by Victor Hugo and Like Water for Chocolate by Laura Esquivel.

Two of my favorite National Parks:
Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado and Castillo San Felipe del Morro in Puerto Rico.

I look forward to learning more about you, your vision for your special event and sharing how we can bring it to reality.
