Our 10 Year Celebration at the Musée Jacquemart-André

The evening officially began as colleagues, guides, and partners gathered to celebrate ten years of My Private Paris at the Musée Jacquemart-André. Guests arrived at dusk and were welcomed with a verre d’accueil in the courtyard, setting a friendly and relaxed tone for the night ahead. The reception offered a moment to reconnect, exchange memories, and enjoy the elegant surroundings before the start of the evening’s program

After the speeches, guests were invited to explore the museum — either freely or alongside one of our expert guides. They wandered through the Grand Salon, the Winter Garden, and the private galleries of Nélie Jacquemart and Édouard André — the perfect places to pause and take in the spirit of Parisian art and history, which lies at the heart of what My Private Paris is all about. As the tours unfolded, the rooms filled with conversation and laughter. Our guides shared stories and little-known details that brought the collections to life, reminding us all that personal connection and storytelling are at the center of every experience we create. A heartfelt thank-you to all our guides for their warmth, passion, and the way they made this part of the evening truly unforgettable.

By 8:30 PM, guests had gathered in the Grand Salon for an elegant dinner-cocktail, where fine cuisine met a festive, joyful atmosphere. Old friends caught up, new connections were made, and glasses were raised in celebration of the next ten years. At 9:00 PM, the lights softened as the talented Ma Saïsara took the stage for a live performance. Her music filled the salon with warmth and rhythm, creating one of the evening’s most memorable moments. Guests swayed, smiled, and simply enjoyed being together in such a beautiful space. The celebration continued with laughter, conversation, and clinking glasses. Then, at 10:30 PM, came the sweet surprise: the birthday cake. Candles flickered as everyone sang and cheered, a moment that perfectly captured both celebration and the shared journey that has shaped My Private Paris from the very beginning.

As the evening neared its end, we gathered for the MPP Guide Awards — a joyful tribute to the heart of My Private Paris: our guides. Presented with warmth and humor, the awards celebrated their passion, creativity, and dedication to every guest experience. The joy and pride in the room were palpable. This was more than just a ceremony — it was a celebration of teamwork, talent, and the unique bond that connects everyone in the My Private Paris family. Throughout the night, guests captured moments at the photobooth, printing keepsakes to take home — small reminders of a grand evening. As the museum officially closed at midnight, the last guests lingered with smiles, reluctant to let the magic end.

The evening was a true celebration of connection, curiosity, and the spirit of discovery that defines My Private Paris. It also marked the launch of My Private France, offering guests a first look at our newest adventure across the country. It was an amazing evening, and we want to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who made it possible. A special thanks to our wonderful event planner, Valentine Le Denmat, and to all the staff at the Jacquemart-André Museum for their incredible support. Of course, we are so grateful to our guests for joining us and sharing in this milestone — your energy, curiosity, and joy truly made the night what it was. We were also delighted to welcome partners from near and far — from the U.S. Embassy, Bourgogne Aventures, Titanium Tours, Saint James, Madame Rêve, Le Foodist, and our incredible chauffeur teams — whose collaboration and friendship continue to inspire us.

A special thank-you as well to our talented photographers, Romain Jacquot and Matthieu Germain for capturing the evening so beautifully. And don’t miss the stunning video created by Romain Jacquot, which perfectly brings the magic of the night to life. It was a perfect way to honor the past, celebrate the present, and look forward to the next chapter of exploration together!
