BNP Paribas
In April 2024, a subsidiary of the BNP Paribas group chartered the Rivage to offer 25 valued clients an exceptional seated dinner at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. An intimate premium PR/client evening format perfectly suited to an institutional banking relationship.
When a financial institution wants to reward its strategic clients in Paris, the dinner-on-a-boat format stands out for its rare combination of confidentiality, prestige and heritage views.
Hosting a bank client dinner for 25 guests requires a subtle balance between prestige (the bank must honour its most valued clients) and discretion (strategic conversations demand complete privacy). The Rivage, configured for 25 guests, offered precisely that human and confidential scale.
The unobstructed view of the Eiffel Tower from Port de Grenelle became the evening's memorable signature.
The seated dinner format across four courses put the emphasis on shared conversation around a communal table. A gastronomic menu crafted with a partner chef, high-end food and wine pairings, uniformed service and a strategic seating plan discussed in advance with the sales teams.
The aim: to turn a classic client dinner into a shared memory that consolidates the institutional relationship.
Bateaux Seine coordinated the private hire of the Rivage, the sourcing of the gastronomic chef, the table service (one server for eight guests), the seating plan with the BNP sales team and the discreet welcome of the VIP clients.
A boat for an institutional client dinner offers everything a high-end bank-client relationship demands: absolute confidentiality (a single group on board), a prestigious setting that stands apart from the usual Michelin-starred restaurants, Eiffel Tower views that elevate the evening, and bespoke service.
