• Welcome to the blog of Luxe Fête Event Planning and Design Studio. My name is Nathalie Cadet-James and I am an event planner and designer. This blog is a place where you can connect with me, check out my latest projects and designs, and hopefully be inspired to create your dream wedding or event. I love designing and planning magical events. Before channeling my creative energy into this field, I was an attorney at top law firms and clerked for a Federal Judge. It did not take long to realize I’d rather be telling stories by transforming spaces and creating beautiful atmospheres. I am fortunate to be considered an "industry innovator" and “event guru” because of my unique and fresh design approach. You can find our work featured in many of today’s premier design and bridal publications. I proudly call the Magic City of Miami my home as well as my inspiration. The Miami of today offers far more than just sun and fun. Miami is truly a world class destination, rich with history, culture, food, music and philanthropy. I am honored to serve on the Executive Committee of Friends of the New World Symphony and the Overtown Music Project. Thanks for stopping by, I'd love to hear from you! And yes, we happily travel anywhere in the world. - Nat

A Maybach as your Wedding Getaway Car

If there is one thing my grooms feel strongly about it is the wedding getaway car. I mean how cute was Prince William and Princess Kate’s vintage getaway car? The married couple left the Buckingham Palace reception in a 1969 Aston Martin DB6 that was given to Prince Charles by the Queen as a 21st...

Giuseppe Zanotti Wedding Shoes

I could spend hours upon hours swooning over beautiful shoes. In fact, I often do just that. No matter how many times I see this Giuseppe Zanotti shoe, I always have to “click again.” A very romantic shoe for that romantic bride.

Chris Bosh and Adrienne Williams Wedding

@FutureMrsBosh is now @MrsBosh – and a very pretty bride at that in classic Oscar de la Renta gown(s). I’d love to see pictures of the decor.  From a few glimpses on twitter it looks modern/clean but I’d imagine there is a lot more to see. I was lucky enough to be considered to plan...
