Tell us about you and your company.

Le Coup de Foudre—a French expression to describe an unexpected moment when you get hit by Aphrodite’s arrow right in the heart—is an experience agency based in Paris. Clément Le Coz and I, Justina Socas, are definitely old-fashioned people when it comes to love encounters. We bumped into each other on a Saturday morning. Clément was working, looking for one-of-a-kind venues for an event. I was studying. He was standing in front of my mother’s house. Two weeks later, we were at the opera for our first date. Clément looked stunning in his black tuxedo and dark green wool cape. I wore a black velvet long dress and a gold cape.
