New York Wedding Planner

It is always an honour to get the opportunity to plan a wedding at an iconic venue like The New York Historical Museum (previously New-York Historical Society).

I had just over four months to help Lara and David plan their intimate wedding at Blue Hill at Stone Barns.  The first thing we had to work on quickly was their invitation suite with Bella Figura.  We opted for a clean and modern design with a vellum decorated with oversized white flowers.

When they walked into the grand Cipriani 25 Broadway, they knew it was the right place for them.  The soaring ceilings, ornate architecture, magnificent inlaid floors and hand painted frescos make it a really special location. 

What an incredible experience to use Moment Factory’s video mapping artistry to create different special moments for Anna and Sam’s joyous wedding at Cipriani 25 Broadway. See the video highlight below from Mike Zhu Films.

Blue Hill at Stone Barns was Jia’s dream wedding venue and she knew it from the first time she visited the property.  Zach likes to joke that she picked the venue before she picked the guy.   

I have been wanting to plan a wedding at Chelsea Square (née Highline Hotel and General Theological Seminary) for a while and finally the stars aligned with Ellie and Joe!  The combination of working with an excellent caterer like Events by RHC at a stunning venue like Chelsea Square is this wedding planner’s dream. 

A fall wedding at Blue Hill at Stone Barns is so lovely!  Marissa and Vincent were such a delight to work with.  They put so much trust in me, the venue and the vendors. 

Jia and Zach were married at Blue Hill at Stone Barns on a beautiful fall day! See all the pretty details in Mike Zhu’s film below.

It is the greatest compliment to be asked to work with a family again.  I planned Sarah and Nico’s wedding.  When Sarah’s twin sister Katie got engaged, I got a phone call from Katie’s parents and I was overjoyed to be reunited with them to work on planning Katie and Jonathon’s wedding. 

It is winter here in New York and it has me thinking of my favourite winter wedding venues. There is something so cozy, intimate and festive about a winter wedding.

Rachel and Jared’s wedding gathered some of my favourite trusted wedding professionals, so when mother nature decided to send us some good luck rain, I walked into the day feeling very confident that we would create a spectacular celebration for them.  Fourteen Forty created a one of a kind invitation suite that combined Rachel’s mom’s love of engraving and Rachel’s love of watercolour illustrations. 

A little rain did not dampen the good spirits for Ariana and Dan’s Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding!  We had a rather cold April week, so we had been planning to be indoors anyway as the temperatures were hovering in the low to mid 50s.  Our photographer Elena Wolfe knows Blue Hill at Stone Barns inside and out, so she knew all the good little covered nooks where we could keep Ariana and Dan relatively dry for portraits.  She arranged for the first look in the manure shed, which is always setup so beautifully.

Andrea and Brett’s wedding day on April 1st started out a little rainy, but thankfully it cleared up in time for their arrival and portraits around the grounds with Dave Robbins Photography.  Andrea was absolutely stunning in Danielle Frankel.  A raised cowl neck, bias cut silk wool sleeveless gown with an open back and scarf draped accent.  She carried a bouquet of white and green hellebores, which were exquisite in their simplicity.  Brett work a boutonniere of lily of the valley.

Megan still remembers the first time that Jodie took her to Stone Barns in Tarrytown.  They explored the farm and the adjoining state park.  Jodie casually mentioned that if she ever got married, it would be at Blue Hill at Stone Barns.  When she proposed, it was a no brainer for them to get married there.  Megan and Jodie’s idea for the wedding was on the non-traditional side.  The best way they described it was a wedding with all the boring parts taken out.  They did not plan on having a ceremony and eloped in Central Park in August instead.  They wanted to have an awesome party with their family and friends.  None of the typical formality involved in weddings. 

Angela and Utsarga had a double wedding weekend in early October.  The invitation by Suite Paperie included 2 separate invitation cards for each celebration enclosed in a vellum wrap with some dramatic floral prints.  I particularly liked the combination of fall inspired colours incorporated into the suite, especially the terracotta envelope with a toast velvet liner.
