Back in May, I attended a stunning wedding, seamlessly planned and organized by Kim Petyt right down to the last flower petal and champagne bottle. Kim is yet another ambitious expat entrepreneur in Paris who began her career in Chicago and successfully brought her burgeoning event planning to France ten years ago. Two children later and a feature in both the print and digital version of the New York Times T-Magazine, Kim continues to build her brand and get noticed. Her experience, professionalism and creativity shine in each of her events and I was thrilled to have gotten the chance to see her in action. Her business caters primarily to the English-speaking community in Paris (expats, short term residents, vistiors, etc.) and brings together traditional American party elements with Parisian elegance.
