Six years ago I hit the ‘go live’ button on my very first blog post (and if you’re wondering what it was – it’s the real Jewish wedding of my brother to his incredible wife, [and my one-in-a-million sister-in-law], Lee Ann… Just the most gorgeous wedding for very many reasons!)
Six years later Smashing The Glass has grown beyond my wildest dreams. We are a superwoman team of three (shout out to the amazing Maria and Emily!) with offices in London and New York City and life is good!
So it goes without saying that we couldn’t let our 6th birthday pass by without a (pretty generous if we do say so ourselves!) gift for you.
We are re-opening the doors to Smashing The Glass’s Brides Club for Jewish and Jew-ish brides, and we’re gifting a FREE 30 day membership to every bride-to-be (the gift has to be claimed by Monday June 11 so don’t delay – claim your 30 day free access pass now!)
Whether you’re newly engaged or just weeks away, working with a wedding planner, or planning solo, having a super traditional wedding, or going totally off-piste, planning an interfaith celebration or as Jewish as it gets, Smashing The Glass’ Brides Club is the secret community that you need to plan the wedding of your dreams (whatever those dreams look like!).
Inside Brides Club we minimize stress and overwhelm with community, tailored advice, personalized vendor recommendations, action plans and templates, and we maximize your budget (hello juicy wedding vendor discounts covering every style, budget and location!)
Not sure what Brides Club is? It’s my members-only community for Jewish and Jew-ish brides-to-be whom I spoil and lavish my attention on, day in – day out.
See the foot of the post for just a few of the things our current Brides Club members have to say about their experience of the community. Promise it will blow your mind!
And if you’re already a member of Brides Club, another little birthday gift is awaiting you! Check your emails, or inside the Brides Club Facebook Group, and go claim it and spoil yourself!
But wait…what exactly is Smashing The Glass’s Brides Club?
Brides Club is my members-only community for planning your perfect Jewish (or Jew-ish) wedding. It’s my biggest passion, and my 3rd baby (after my two little princesses)!
I set up Brides Club in January 2018, in response to receiving 100’s of daily emails and DMs from brides-to-be wanting to know how to tailor Jewish wedding traditions / music / family dynamics / timelines / levels of Jewish-ness / mixing of cultures and faiths etc. to their personal Jewish wedding.
I was also receiving daily requests for vendor recommendations and creative wedding ideas, and I absolutely LOVE helping with this kind of stuff (seriously – this is what I live for!). The spark was lit for creating Brides Club, a members-only community, dedicated exclusively to Jewish and Jew-ish Brides, and now, one and a half years later, I’m proud to have helped 100’s of awesome Jewish and Jew-ish brides create the Jewish wedding of their dreams (whatever that dream might be).
Inside Brides Club I’m able to take away all the wedstress, the overwhelm and all the ‘wedding information overload’.
Think of me as your virtual maid of honor – ready to help with anything and everything at a moments notice! And the community of support from fellow brides-to-be and newlyweds is unlike any other! Promise you’ll never have experienced anything like it before… Give it a go and if it’s not quite for you, you are free to leave at any time! There is no contract or commitment. It’s a gift from me to you – and if you just want to enjoy it for 30 days and then leave – no hard feelings – I promise!
I help you plan as little or as much of your wedding as you want, ensuring you make decisions with clarity and confidence whilst keeping family and friends happy. I also ensure you get the most ‘bang for your buck’ with your wedding budget, and, most of all, ensure that planning your wedding is as fun and stress-free as the day itself!
What happens inside Brides Club?
Aside from tailored advice, personal to your wedding, there are so many resources inside Smashing The Glass’ Brides Club to make sure your day is a smashing success.
The Brides Club Members Area is a special section of Smashing The Glass just for Brides Club members, packed with resources, tailored advice, tips, and tricks to help you plan a Jewish or Jew-ish wedding that will leave you feeling joyful, not emotionally exhausted and overwhelmed.
It’s where you can find your stage-by-stage planning breakdown – wherever you are in your planning journey, from just engaged to newly married. Every stage has its own section with helpful video guides and resources you’ll need to breeze through that stage.
There’s also a section where you can access our full collection of Jewish wedding checklists and resources – everything from our ultimate Jewish wedding checklist to a list of questions to ask venues to Spotify hora playlists and a 1-week-to-go action plan, and so much more!
These resources not only save you time and money, but also keep everyone around you happy. They’re literally Jewish Wedding Planning GOLD!
Whether or not you’re using a planner, whether you’re just engaged or a month out from your big day, Brides Club is your go-to spot for all the Jewish wedding step-by-step action plans, checklists, and resources.
