We had the complete pleasure of having Elk as our sound engineer for our very special day, our wedding day!!!

We have previously worked with Elk before when he did a fantastic job at the Not A Cult Festival. After seeing how brilliant he was at handling all of the bands sounds, we couldn’t think of any one we would of wanted more to have at our wedding.

During the run up to the day, Elk spent time talking through the plans we had for our ceremony, various life acts and the fire show. He corresponded with the artists and myself to ensure everyone had all of the equipment that they needed, how the wanted their sound, which songs they needed etc, he was incredibly organised and made me feel at such ease.

Elk also came down the day before as we had a ceremony run through for we needed music to walk down the aisle to. Again, at such a stressful time, Elk made it so we could feel comfortable and we could trust in the knowledge that on the day, everything would run so smoothly and exactly how we wanted it to be.

Elk has a wonderful way of working with the artists, he remains calm and has a keen eye for what needs to be done And acts on his instincts immediately.

All of our artists have said how brilliant he was and that it’s rare to find a sound engineer that has such passion for what they do and that they were incredibly happy with the sound they received.

He was very kind to bring all of his own equipment, we had everything we needed and more.

He worked so hard throughout the day and we are so immensely grateful for being able to have him. He truly made our day so fantastic, it wouldn’t of been the same without his skills and personality.

100% would recommened. We will always be wanting to work with Elk for future projects. He’s one in a million!!”

A Maggie Sottero Bride for a Modern Jewish Wedding at The Brewery, London, UK

17/07/2019 by Karen Cinnamon

Okay, Jodie and Sam came up with what just might be the BEST end-of-night snack to send home with guests at a Jewish wedding: bagels and lox! What better snack after a long night of partying? WANT!

Snack genius aside, we’re in love with the couple’s gorgeous wedding at one of our very favourite London venues, Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor The Brewery. Jodie describes her venue as “everything we wanted and more,” and we think that’s a spot-on description – The Brewery really does have it all, from an amazing central London location to ultra-attentive service to a whole range of beautiful spaces you can use for all the various elements of the Jewish wedding day.

Jodie and Sam wanted their big day to be all about love, and that comes through so strongly in their photos by Gantcho Beltchev and their sensational video by Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Minty Slippers – seriously, don’t miss this trailer; it captures the love between the couple and the joy everyone in the room felt for them so perfectly.

We also love that Jodie and Sam wrote and delivered a joint speech together!

Now over to the bride, who looked exquisite in Maggie Sottero…

A London Wedding

Jodie, the bride: After a year of planning, on 10th June 2018 we pulled off a modern Jewish wedding in the most amazing venue in central London at The Brewery, Chiswell Street. After lots of searching for the perfect venue, The Brewery was everything we wanted and more and we could picture the whole day as we stood there in awe of the potential of the space in front of us.

Family and Friends

We wanted a day that wasn’t just the best day of our lives but also an amazing day for our family and friends and more than anything, more than the food, the drink and the dancing, we wanted love to be the most prominent theme of the day.

A Rustic Chic Jewish barn wedding at Heaton House Farm in the Cheshire countryside, UK

06/09/2016 by Karen

Meredith & David have got the balance of rustic AND glamorous just right. The combination of gorgeous wild flowers, pastel tones and personal touches, alongside the beautiful barn setting of Heaton House Farm in the Cheshire countryside is utterly perfect.

Meredith is American, and David is British but they both live in NYC now, so this is actually a Jewish destination wedding in the UK! Their W Day is bursting at the seams with thoughtful details, elegance and fun, like the bride’s sky high pink Prada heels, a beautiful lopsided wedding cake (read on to hear the story behind that!), a meaningful ceremony, and girls on roller skates giving out shots at the after party! F-U-N !

Something that really touched me was hearing about a keychain made by the bridesmaids for Meredith depicting her beloved brother and stepfather who had tragically passed away some years before the wedding. Meredith attached the keychain to her bouquet for the wedding day itself, and to this day, carries it on her keys for a beautiful daily reminder of her wedding and her brother and stepdad.

Enjoy this sweet treat of a wedding — it’s romantic and whimsical but also sleek and stylish. And looks effortlessly so at that. All of the fabulousness was captured by STG regulars, Reportage Gallery, with the most gorgeous film by Minty Slippers at the end.

How we met

Meredith, the Bride: Dave is British (he’s from Manchester) and I’m American (born and raised in New York) and we met though a mutual friend. My brother’s friend introduced me to his wife, who is from Manchester. We became friendly and she set me up with dave. This is really meaningful to us, as Dave never got to meet my brother Gregg, who passed away in 2008. In a way, it feels like Gregg brought Dave into my life. Dave reminds me a lot of my brother and having this connection to my brother is very special.

Meredith & Shoshana | True love + oodles of creativity: Lesbian Jew-ish Wedding at Notley Abbey, Oxfordshire, UK

01/12/2014 by Karen

One of the reasons I’m in love with my job as editor and curator of Smashing The Glass is that weddings are the ultimate fusion of creativity, traditions and of course true love – three things that I adore – and this divine wedding has all three in buckets.

When an email from Danny and Julie of Minty Slippers popped in with a link to Meredith and Shoshana’s incredible wedding film, below, I had a massive ‘this is why I cherish my job’ moment. It’s so very moving, and their devoted love for each other is so apparent — I literally whooped, hollered and clapped my hands with glee in anticipation of blogging Danny and Julie’s fabulous work, and Meredith and Shoshana’s love story.

It’s a tale of long-distance desire with the pair first meeting in 2011 when Shoshana, from London, was studying at the New York Film Academy and Meredith was working at a Manhattan advertising agency.

Shoshana eventually returned to London after her studies, and being thrown suddenly into a long distance relationship, they decided to make videos to remind them of the fun they shared together. Their videos are super creative and fun and will fill you in a little more on their love story.

But on to the wedding itself. I don’t think I’ve ever seen brides who smiles as much as Meredith and Shoshana did on their big day; honestly their infectious grins are enough to make even the most miserable, rainy Mondays seem like Happy Hour in the Caribbean.

They were married at Notley Abbey in Oxfordshire, a beautiful venue that was once the home of Sir Laurence Olivier. There is a Stephanie Allin AND a J.Crew gown, both as beautiful as each other. There is a singing harpist, an immense naked cake, outdoor games and stunning florals . There are hand-painted favours by Shoshana (who is an illustrator by trade) of each guest’s name painted and presented on miniature easels. There are some fantastic ideas for a really meaningful wedding ceremony.

But most of all? Most of all there is L.O.V.E

The beautiful moments on film below were captured by Minty Slippers, whilst the immense photography is courtesy of Mark Cachia.

The venue

Meredith and Shoshana, the Brides: We chose Notley Abbey in Oxfordshire, for its tree-lined entrance, the castle like turrets, the beautiful gardens and the stunning contemporary mix with 13th century architecture — need we say more, it was perfect!

‘Global travel meets art’

Our wedding theme would be best described as ‘global travel meets art’ – that’s what we arrived at in the end! We didn’t have a colour scheme but we definitely thought about colour throughout the process. We didn’t use a wedding planner, we had too much fun planning it ourselves!
