The idea of creating Winnie Mariage was born in Bordeaux, in the summer of 2023, following the wedding of one of my best friends where I was a witness. She mentioned the difficulty she had encountered in finding her wedding venue, which led me to realize the following: finding a good wedding venue is often a huge headache for couples.
From the number of venues available, the difficulty in envisioning without visiting the locations, the strained communication with owners, to the mishaps on the big day, complications abound.
This is rather paradoxical, considering that couples experiencing this stress are preparing to live the most beautiful day of their lives!
That's why Valentine and I were determined to address this problem. This is the mission we have undertaken through Winnie.
At the end of 2023, we founded Winnie Mariage with these two objectives. In the long run, our ambition is to become the leading player in the high-end wedding venue rental market in France.
With several years of experience in the Tech industry, I have developed strong skills in UX Design and Product Management. Proficient in agile methodologies, I am driven by the desire to develop a digital solution that perfectly meets the needs of users. Sensitized to current ecological challenges, I aim to encourage eco-responsible practices at our partner venues.
I have worked for several years within sales teams or in the Marketing department of major companies, particularly in the luxury industry. My areas of expertise are customer relationship management and social media management. I am attentive to the needs of my clients and I enjoy making every effort to meet their requirements. Through Winnie, I aim to showcase French elegance by forging trusted partnerships with the most beautiful locations in France.
