Engage!23 The Paris Experience

For the first time Engage! is headed to the most romantic city in the world, Paris, July 24-27th, 2023.  Join us as many of the leaders in the global wedding industry gathers for three days of inspiration, education, and celebration in the heart of the city of lights. Engage! will take place in iconic locations in and around Paris with exclusive room rates and sessions headquartered at the 5-star Hotel Plaza Athenee and Le Meurice of the Dorchester Collection, a welcome party sunset cruise on the River Seine, and a spectacular Gala at Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicompte. We will welcome a diverse collection of globally focused speakers, a mix of past favorites, and new faces to the Engage! stage. In partnership with Alejandra Poupel Events and the best of the best creative partners in France and beyond, we will experience Paris in a truly extraordinary way!

Engage! is designed for committed wedding industry professionals looking for innovative ideas and practical solutions for strategic growth. Engage! is dedicated to gathering the best of the best, and is limited to 250 speakers and attendees. Careful attention is paid to creating an intimate atmosphere that blends structure and downtime, allowing for candid networking in a non-client, non-competitive environment. The open exchange of ideas, information, and strategies for facing the challenges of the luxury wedding industry are hallmarks of the event — often imitated, never repeated.

Paris, France

  • Hôtel Plaza Athénée
  • Le Meurice
  • Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte

“From its sun-dappled quays along the Seine to its quaint cafes in tranquil neighborhoods, Paris has always been known as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. In addition to its picturesque charm, it’s also a city steeped in culture, cuisine, art, architecture, and history. In short, Paris contains multitudes. More than a mere spot on the map, it’s a place that exists in the hearts and minds of all who have been touched in some way by its magical allure.”
