IF you're planning on coming to the AE meet up in Paris...
UPDATE Here is the schedule of next June 28th and 29th : - Meeting before the Gay Pride at 1:00 pm Saturday, June 28th at the subway station Saint-Jacques. - Picnic before the Meet-Up at 11:30 am Sunday, June 29th at the Carrousel du Louvre (on the lawn). - AfterEllen.com Meet-Up from 2:00 pm till 5:00 pm Sunday, June 29th at L'imprévu Café. ------- original post below------
We need to know how many of you will (or may) be there on June 29th...
On voudrait savoir combien on sera à peu près le 29 juin pour choisir un lieu de rendez-vous And just as Lydie wrote, "We need to collect informations to organise the meet up so, tell us who you are, on which day you're coming, and if you have some advices or ideas, share them with us!" Merci! =) Submitted by Louise (38 posts) on June 1, 2008 - 6:33am. |

New place
i've just been told about a new place that seems to be very appropriate :
It's in Le Marais, very close to the Beaubourg museum. The room downstairs is quite nice (bricks, a fireplace, a private bar, etc...In fact I just organized a party there for 60 of my friends last night and it was great! the charge for the evening is 100 euros, that is from 7pm to 1:15 am. As of today, 100 euros is 156 USD. There is a separate sound system from the rest of the bar, and you can plug IpodsWe didn't visit it lat time but it seems almost perfect ! Plus Sarah Warn seems to be ok for this place so...We'll check this!
"what the what?" Tina Fey.
C'est l'Imprévu ?
L'imprevu
Yes, it's l'imprevu, omg, I forgot to tell the name of the place lol...I'm tired -___-
"what the what?" Tina Fey.
L'Imprevu
I love that place.
I don't remember it being very big though, but that depends on how many people are coming... around 60-70 should be ok.
Just one small note though. It's 100 euros during the week. Weekends are more expensive. Wanted to rent it out on a friday, it was around 500 euros...
...
So when?
Ok, girls. My mom is totally fine with it. The only thing is that she doesn't like the fact that I'm all alone in Paris. So do you all live in Paris? If not, in which hotel are you staying? And when are you coming? And is it sure that's going to be in le quartier Marais?
So when should I come. (I'm coming from the Netherlands, by the way)? Should I arrive: 28th or 29th? Do we meet before hand?
You should defintely come
You should defintely come on the 28th if you can. That way you'll also catch pride.
I'm also thinking about staying in a hotel over the weekend (saturday and sunday night). I'll be in the area for a bit longer, about 2-3 weeks but not actually *in* Paris and having to go 30km at 2AM... not something I care to repeat :D
Would be fun to get together for the parade on Saturday. A pre-meet-up meet-up especially for all the people flying in who don't know anyone there?
Hey
i think..
... i´m part of the group your taking about ;o)
we are 4 and stay in the same hotel from friday till monday
so see you all in Paris
British invasion! - The good kind!
Hey,
myself, Emma and possibly 2 others from the uk, will be flying across to Paris for the meet up and for Gay pride. We attended the NY meet the other week, so dont under-estimate the amount of people attending! We were spotted before we attended the NY meet up because we were on Cathy's WYP vlog last week, after the meet-up, a group of us hung out around New York and had a blast!
i'd love to meet up with some people before Pride!
hope to see some of you there!
Glad you'll come
You can tell Lydie how it was to meet Jill and me to meet Cathy :-)
We'll try to make a pre-meet the 28th.
See you then
to Charlie
hi,
did you sent us a message in eameetparis@yahoo.fr ?
wow
it's gonna be really cool if some people come from all france and all europe ! i can't wait.
i live in paris, so i'll obviously be there, before, during and after the meet up. a pré-meetup seems a good idea.
sidenote : you should be warned that i have the most terrible accent ever. ;)
Accent
J'ai toutes mes chances pour le pire accent anglais car j'ai déjà fait bien rigoler mes acolytes pendant la réunion de préparation du meet-up.
A bientôt
saturday 28
hey ladies,
I was actually talking about the idea of a pre-meet-up on saturday with my co organizer. It would specially be nice for those who are visiting.
For those who don't know, saturday 28th will be the gay pride in Paris, should be a blast. We'll see how we're going to do this.
and again if you're coming, plz send an e-mail to: aemeetparis@yahoo.fr
For those who are looking for an hotel near the meet-up, the best places are the 1, 2, 3 and 4 arrondisement. It's in the center of Paris and everything should be happening around it.
Close together
I'm almost sure that I come. It would be nice if all the people who are going to stay in a hotel/hostel etc. , says in which they are staying, so that we can be all close together? Much saver also!!!
Hey
Hello everyone,
First, I'd like to say that this is going very well, a lot of people sent us an e-mail already, and thank you to all of you for giving your help ;).
Then, yep, I'm totally for a pre-meeting, we'll go to the gay-pride together, and help those who are totally lost in paris.
And for those who are searching for somewhere to go for the night, be aware that Paris is a small town (yes yes) so don't bother for the location, if you're staying at the 12ème or at the 14ème, it'll be as good.
Plus,I'm going to the "l'imprevu" on wednesday (the afternoon), who wants to come with me???
"what the what?" Tina Fey.
me me me !
i can, after 16h. would it be ok for you ?
Yo pouik, (tain je me
Yo pouik, (tain je me remes pas de ce pseudo), that's ok, send a mail to the aemeetupparis adress to tell me where I could pick you up!
"what the what?" Tina Fey.
Don't worry
And don't be afraid if you don't speak good French or English for that matter. We all together to help each other.
And if everything goes right, I want to book my transfer to Paris / hostel before next Sathurday.
Me....again
Ok now I'm confussed? Staying in which arrondisement is the best? 1,2,3,4 but also 14 and 15?
And people don't forget to say, if you want ofcourse, in which hoste/hotel/arrondisement you're staying?
Arrondissement
I was just saying that all the arrondissement are good because this is a small town but : we'll be in the Marais or around most of the time so the best arrondissements are :
- 4, 12 , 11 , 3, 5, 6,1, 14 13 and I would add the 20ème because this is one of the cheapest place of paris. Then for the hotels I don't know, i'm living in paris intra-muros so...
If I'm given informations about hotels I'll tell you everything ;)
"what the what?" Tina Fey.
Merci
Merci Lydie!Merci pour tous ce que tu fais.
Et bien sur aussi merci à toutes les autres qui essaient d'organiser ce (pre)meet-up
Aidez-moi
I wait for an answer of a Dutch fan, who maybe also wants to go.
The transfer to Paris isn't a problem now, but the accommodation is. If the Dutch fan can't go than I don't know where I'm going to stay? If seen hostels, but if I've understand it right , you've to share a room with 6 peoples you don't know (could be a man?) and a shared bathroom. And for a room in a hotel you quick pay €70 per night.
This is the first time I do this, so could somebody help me? There are so many hotels, I don't know where to search (don't want to stay in a hotel with any rats etc. I'm scared to death for these beasts, lol). And does somebody search a roommate by any chance? I would regret it if I can't go because I don't find any accommodation? Hope somebody can help me.
thx
hotel
I'll try to find some time to see some hotels for you, but I can't promise that I'll find something nice.
I'll keep you in touch.
did you write to aemeetparis@yahoo.fr ?
Just did it
I've just emailed aemeetparis@yahoo.fr
Propositions
Frenchie, you have a PM waiting for you ;)
Girls, I would like to propose something, would you be ok to make a BIG pic-nic at midtime on sunday 29 th? It would be before the meeting with Karman Bridget etc etc. What do you think?
To sum up : Gay pride on saturday 28th
Pic Nic on sunday 29th

"what the what?" Tina Fey.
That's a great idea ! Count
The pic nic is a great
The pic nic is a great idea. Count me in.
I have a question: do somebody knows how long Sarah, Lori, Bridget and Karman plan to stay in Paris? Are some visits of Paris planned (with everybody)? (Actually, it's 2 questions).
news from Karman
so ....
the meeting with the girls will only last 2 or 3 hours. In NYC it was from 3 to 6 pm. Depending in which bar we're going, it should be a little later.
but as Lydie said will do something between us before.
see ya
Visiting Paris
It was one of our first ideas to make a little visit of paris for those who want to. We could plan this for the 28th (before or after gaypride) or on sunday morning (or both?).
"what the what?" Tina Fey.
lydie...
email sent !
see you wednesday :)
sorry to ask again but
yes the meeting with
yes the meeting with sarah, lori, bridget and karman should last for 2 or 3 hours.
I'm not sur wheter or not they would like to go around with us.
and yes the meeting in Lyon is the 4th of july
As far as i remember they
As far as i remember they come as part of Olivia Cruise in France, for the "you can't take them anywhere" vlog. Like in Reno. So i'm not sure they'll be at Pride because it's an organised trip... Hence the meeting in Lyon as well.
The meeting in NYC was 3 hours also.
OK
I understand. I didn't know that.
Now you do :) They were
Bilan du jour
Salut les filles !!
J'ai fait une petite liste à partir des mails reçus et des commentaires laissés sur les deux forums : pour l'instant on a 38 personnes qui souhaitent venir (Sarah and Co compris) dont 30 sont sûrs. Par contre je n'ai pas retrouvé l'info sur un groupe d'anglaises qui doit venir. C'était dans l'un des messages des forums il me semble. Quelqu'un peut-il me renseigner ?
Wow, this thing is growing
To sum up : Gay pride on saturday 28th
Pic Nic on sunday 29th
Meet up with the girls on sunday 29 th
This sounds great! Count me in.
Actually count me in for... pretty much anything. :D
Frenchie, sent you a PM re: hotels.
Viviane, Charlie mentioned that earlier in thread. She said it was 2 people + possibly 2 others...I count them
In the message if I remember well there was no name. it was just about a group who's coming. But it could be them :-)
Merci quand même
For the brits
I'll be with them (Charlie, Mcsouser and TalkingGuineaPig). We are 3 for sure (me included) from Cathy's vlog, maybe 4 if TGP can make it.
One of us will email you i think, when we know for sure how many we'll be :) Even though it's not that big of a difference if we're 3 instead of 4. Plus a friend of mine will certainly come as well so you can add her too.
Sum up = 2 from britain for sure, maybe one more brit, my friend and me (= 5 girls)
I also know there's another group coming, from Sweden, Germany and such, i'm sure they wrote to you :)
30 people confirmed already, that's great! I'm sure they'll be a few more who can't confirm because they don't know about the e-mail address!
thanks a lot for details
and I have the other group from Sweden, Germany ...
British group
Hey I'm from Britain too- and I'm flying from Luton 12pm on the Saturday, arrive around 3pm. I'm coming on my own, not in a group, but it'll be great to meet everyone!!
xxx
What time do you leave?
hi everyone
I really need to know what time does your plane/train/bus leave Paris if you're leaving Sunday night !!
I've just realized that we might be planning things a little too late for the meet-up with the girls.
Those who are planing to leave before 8 or 9pm please contact me.
Imprévu
So tomorow, we'll check the bar l'Imprevu :
Coming with me :
-Viviane
-Pouik
-Amandine

J'oublie quelqu'un?
"what the what?" Tina Fey.
je viendrais peut être
je viendrais peut être faire un petit passage.
j'espère qu'avec tout ce monde vous allez tout de même essayer de nouveau bar. Faut peut être préparer une liste de ceux que vous allez essayer et surtout l'ordre pour ne pas faire des allé retour pour rien. Et je vous en supplie prenez un plan hehe.
