The wedding you
quietly imagined,
fully realized.
Maison Noire is a full-service atelier for those who prefer their events felt, not announced. Two hundred and thirteen weddings. One signature.
We design events the way
a couturier drafts a gown —
to the millimeter.
No package tiers dressed up as bespoke. Every Maison Noire wedding begins with a private atelier day — a full afternoon of drawings, fabric, palette, scent, and sound. What follows is fourteen months of quiet, exact production culminating in the single evening you hoped it might be.
- One creative director, start to finish
- In-house floral & production teams
- Sourcing across four continents
- Timeline lock ninety days out
- Vendor negotiation & contracts
- Day-of ratio: 1 planner per 20 guests

The Atelier Day
A private afternoon at the studio. We draw, taste, sample, and shape the mood board that becomes your wedding.
The Design File
A single leather-bound document: scenography, palette, floor plan, sound, scent — the entire evening written down.
The Production
Twelve to eighteen months of vendor sourcing, contracts, negotiation, and the thousand quiet decisions in between.
The Evening
You show up. Your family shows up. We handle everything else. The room is exactly what you saw in the file.

Field notes from the atelier.
The anatomy of a mood board that actually holds up
Why we still draft ours by hand — and what nine references are worth in a room.
On restraint in floral design
The case for fewer stems, better varieties, and one architectural gesture per room.
Why we lock timelines ninety days out
The single production ritual that separates a great evening from a survivable one.

What's the minimum commission?+
Le Jour begins at $14,500. Full-service commissions typically start at $62,000, though many of our weddings sit between $150,000 and $400,000 all-in.
Do you travel?+
Yes. Roughly 60% of our work takes place outside our home studios. Travel and accommodations are billed at cost with no markup.
How far in advance should we inquire?+
For full-service, twelve to eighteen months. We take a maximum of eighteen commissions a year.
Do you work with our vendors?+
We're happy to. Our house collective is not required — we're often introduced to florists, photographers, and musicians we go on to love.
Is there a payment plan?+
Yes. A retainer secures your date; the balance is spread across four milestones tied to production.
