La Fête Full Description
Charlotte’s multicultural background and fluency in four languages enables her to create flawlessly organised events globally, always ensuring they provide once in a lifetime experiences for their clients. We have planned everything from intimate Tuscan weddings to luxurious birthday parties in London ballrooms, making sure that every single detail is tailored to the needs and tastes of each client. As well as working closely with private clients, La Fête consults for high profile corporate clients’ events, including the Glamour Beauty Festival and The BARDOU Foundation’s International Women’s Day 2018 Gala. Over the last few years, Charlotte has become a go-to source for high-profile wedding commentaries, as seen in Daily Express Online for Pippa Middleton’s wedding. We have also appeared in, amongst others, Yahoo! News, Evening Standard Online, Rock My Wedding, Stylist and Zank You. Charlotte innately understands her clients’ needs and is able to visualize and associate an infinite range of colour palettes and aesthetics. This is one of the reasons why La Fête regularly spearheads its own styled shoots, bringing together the best in the business and creating original images and films. Our photoshoots have appeared on key blogs, such as Wedding Chicks and in leading print titles, such as Brides Magazine UK and in the Wedding issue of Vogue Japan. Get in touch today and we look forward to providing you with additional information on our services.

Extravaganza at Aynhoe Park

“The first time I met, Charlotte I knew that she was the right person to work with me on my wedding. My vision was completely unconventional, but she was there throughout the whole process, from finding special cookies to searching for neon lights on eBay, always finding solutions while sticking to our budget. Our wedding weekend was a dream: I didn't worry about a thing and all of our guests were so impressed with her and Emily: DREAM TEAM! I would trust any party or event with La Fête!”

“We very much enjoyed working with Charlotte. She constantly listened and heard our needs throughout the project and knew exactly how to stay focused, yet extremely flexible. We especially liked her attentiveness, people skills and patience, as well as her adaptability, involvement and reactivity, particularly on the big day.”

The BARDOU Foundation black tie gala in honour of International Women's Day

When I first met Charlotte, we immediately hit it off and I knew I wanted to work with her. Whilst organising The BARDOU Foundation’s International Women’s Day gala in March 2018, I saw Charlotte’s resourcefulness, efficiency, honesty and creativity. I knew that our event was in safe hands and I thoroughly enjoyed working with La Fête. I will be happily entrusting Charlotte with our upcoming events.

“I have had the pleasure of working with La Fête on the last two editions of The Glamour Beauty Festival. Charlotte is incredibly efficient, quick thinking and charming. She is just as comfortable working in an office setting and attending supplier meetings, as she is on event days, making sure both brands and guests are happy, while simultaneously resolving a host of unexpected issues. Working with La Fête took a weight off my shoulders and as well as being extremely professional and trustworthy, Charlotte was a true delight to be around.”

“Charlotte’s involvement in The Glamour Beauty Festival has been truly invaluable. She took our specifications and requests and turned them into a reality, whilst still making sure to keep creativity and logic at the forefront of everything. Thanks to La Fête’s consultant role, the Glamour Beauty Festival is going from strength to strength. Glamour magazine and La Fête have so far had a wonderful collaboration and I’m excited to see what the future holds.”

I don’t know what we would’ve done without La Fete

“I don’t know what we would’ve done without the guidance, support and loyalty provided by La Fête. We were never ones for wedding planners, thinking that my husband and myself could handle our event of 150 persons alone, but when we realized that we were both busy with our day jobs and the fact that we couldn’t speak Italian (our wedding was held in Tuscany) we finally decided to take up the idea of having a wedding planner involved. Charlotte Ricard isn’t just your typical wedding planner – she is literally someone that gets things done in order to not only satisfy the couple (us) but she also made sure that the entire lead up to the event would run smoothly, be it from a logistical stand-point to even those minute details that often the bride and groom might oversee. With her multi-cultural background and the fact that she can speak four languages really benefited us in more ways than we could’ve imagined. We have seen our fair share of wedding planners just by attending our friends’ wedding and often times they’re at the sidelines. With La Fête you can actually see her in action without being interruptive and one couldn’t be more proud to say that such a wedding went as fantastic as it did with La Fêtes’ 100% involvement. We can’t recommend La Fête enough and if you’re in the midst of deciding on a wedding planner that can run your most personal event, they’ll see to it that every touch point of your wedding is attended to with commitment and dedication so that bride and groom are left rest-assured.”

Victoria & Richard, married in France in August 2012

“Charlotte helped organise our wedding from start to finish, not missing a thing. We were married on a very small island on the west coast of France, where she was able to source hard to find items, which were integral to our wedding day. She took the stress out of the language barrier, effectively translating between myself and all of the vendors. She was extremely organised and helpful. I would definitely recommend Charlotte.”
