Hello, We've Moved!

To all of our previous and future clients, WE'VE MOVED! While our roots and so many of the spectacular events we've planned have been in the New Jersey / New York area, our new home base is beautiful Charlotte, North Carolina.   We are still getting settled, meeting new vendors and visiting event locations, but excited about this new adventure and how we'll be able to best serve Queen City brides!  But rest assured, we still love to travel and will be working events in the northeast often, in addition to planning weddings in as many other fabulous locations as possible. Cheers & Many Thanks, XoXo

Lorraine & Alim: Glamour & Grace

At the close of summer, another of our lovely couples, Lorraine and Alim, tied the knot at The Fox Hollow in Woodbury, New York.  I first met the bride during an appearance of mine on The Wendy Williams Show  seven years ago.  She was a producer on that show at the time, but is now Vice President of Programming for True Entertainment and Executive Producer of Bravo's hit " The Real Housewives of Atlanta ."  When she became engaged and called me to help plan her wedding, I was beyond thrilled ... and the rest in history. Lorraine and Alim are both proud New Yorkers, so much of their wedding's design stemmed from that.  We designed and executed an extravagantly beautiful affair where hues of purple and grey took center stage.  The venue's lush, outdoor garden was chosen for the ceremony, which featured a wooden pergola draped in flowing fabric and fresh flowers.  A live jazz duo provided romantic accompaniment, as the bride walked down the aisle to Chrisette Mich

Nicole & Arnaldo: NYC Sweet

Our NYC Sweet  couple, Nicole and Arnaldo, were married last month at the  Chart House Restaurant in Weehawken.   I first met with this bride and groom over 2 years ago in my old studio, and we partnered closely selecting all aspects of their event from A-to-Z.   Since many of the pivotal moments of their relationship took place in or near New York City (1st date and engagement ... just to name a couple), it became the obvious choice for a theme (hence my little nickname of NYC Sweet).   And o n what was officially  the last day of Spring , we successfully achieved the intimate and romantic experience our beautiful bride and groom set out to create.   Hues of pink and purple took center stage at this affair, via specialty lighting and linens, towering lush florals, a designer aisle runner, the delectable 3-tiered cake, lounge furniture and all other pieces of stationary.  Just 25 of the couple's closest family and friends were invited, but the love exuding from the space truly

A Walk In The Park

It’s been a while since we've shared one of our couple’s engagement photos, but once these were revealed I knew I wouldn't be able to resist.  The bride, Executive Producer of Real Housewives of Atlanta , and the groom, a successful real estate investor, are both proud "New Yorkers" so they held the photo shoot in none other than Central Park with Boschelli Photography .  They chose a gorgeous Spring day and literally took a walk through the park! We've  been working with this beautiful couple  for several months … planning, preparing and anxiously anticipating their September nuptials, taking place in Long Island.  So far it’s  poignantly  clear this event will be absolutely fabulous!  I’m truly excited for them both, so stay tuned. Enjoy ...
