Sublime wedding venue in the heart of Paris
It was with great pleasure that we attended a sneak preview of the new reception rooms available for private hire at the famous Rodin Museum in the heart of Paris last night.
Our visit began with a tour of their new exhibition MATISSE & RODIN which can be visited until 28 February 2010. The former chapel, a newly renovated building with a now contemporary, pure and refined decor, stages this unique exhibition. Through a wide-ranging selection of sketches and sculptures, we discovered the affinities, similarities and differences between these two outstanding, creative artists. The story of the encounters and relations between these two major artists is one that has remained unexplored until now. By selecting certain specific works and using a thematic approach, MATISSE & RODIN successfully captures the points of convergence and divergence in the sculptural and graphic work of the two masters. A truly artistic discovery!
Our visit concluded with a cocktail reception held in the hall of the Biron Mansion. Situated in the heart of the museum’s main building, this beautiful hall with its magnificent columns, checkered black and white tiled flooring and sweeping staircase provide a truly historical backdrop and would be the dream setting for an impressive wedding banquet!
After having organized several weddings at this venue, we can assure you that a symbolic wedding ceremony held in the finely manicured gardens with the museum in the background is truly a magical experience. Outdoor cocktails follow the ceremony and photos can be taken around the gardens and among the sculptures. It is only after the cocktail reception that your guests will discover the Biron Mansion hall where dinner and dancing can now take place.
Exclusivity can only be granted on a Monday (all day) or after 7pm in the evening on other evenings when the museum is closed.
Here are a few photos to help you visualize how special this venue is:

We thank the Rodin Museum for inviting us to discover these exciting new reception areas.
A bientôt with more lucky brides and grooms!
