SUBMERGED IN LOVE AT TEMPLE BETH AHM
This kosher wedding at Temple Beth Ahm needed to keep tradition while also adding that fun factor, with bright lighting details and drinks, submerged flowers and instruments on stage and on the dance floor.
should you work with a planner?
You deserve to be able to ENJOY the days leading up to your big event. You deserve to live your life and have an expert spend the time planning the best day ever for you.
You deserve that.
So let's talk about what you need to know about working with a Planner to determine if it's the best next step for YOU
The escort card board with a true purpose
This event was all about giving back to make sure the very special couple, surrounded by their friends and family, so when creating a vision for the day, I wanted to make sure it felt super personal. In collaboration with Wish Upon A Wedding, the special couple was able to have 50 guests for their vow renewal ceremony and reception. It was important that we had brights and lots of positivity around, so after the color scheme was created, I reached out to each vendor, who were all gracious enough to donate their services / products as well.
Because it was an intimate wedding event, I wanted to do more than just escort cards or the popular escort card board with names on it. IT HAD TO BE SPECIAL, for the couple AND for the guests…something MEMORABLE.

A few of my favorite things…or dresses!
It’s…engagement season! And that means you’ll be wedding dress shopping very soon!
Big trends I’ve been seeing for next year’s designs are huge bows, strapless, sleek with a pop of fabric, and a mix of textures and fabrics. The designers are BRINGING IT! No more boring bridal dresses; now you can have true DESIGNS that are both classy and artistic.
family in the wedding
Do you have to include family in your wedding party?
I was asked for my expert opinion on this (click below!), and if you don’t include family, you just have to be sure about your decision. You cannot take it back.
And this comes up all the time, even inviting certain family members to the wedding!
the difference in Planning all types of events
From mitzvahs to birthdays to weddings, and everything in between, planning events is something just LOVE. It’s in my blood. People always say they could feel my passion for the work from the first conversation they had with me and it made them even more excited to have their event. Whoo hoo! Nothing makes me happier than getting people excited to celebrate life.
Many Planners set a niche for themselves, “Wedding Planner,” “Party Planner,” “Mitzvah Planner,” “Event Planner” and more, and we could easily do that, but why stop the passion and excitement with just one type of event?!
But what are the similarities and differences in planning each type of event?
