It’s a very happy Sunday! Hannukah is here, I have gifts for you, AND I’m in today’s New York Times talking all things chuppahs (naturally!) and how they’ve become a style statement of their own.

So Hanukkah is here! That means eight nights of lighting the menorah, eating fried foods, and everybody’s favorite thing… presents!!!

And what would Hanukkah be without a present or two from me as well?!

So I have TWO gifts for brides-to-be joining Smashing The Glass’s members-only Club for Jewish and Jew-ish Brides during Hannukah (starting now!)

First up, if you join with the annual subscription you’ll receive a 1 hour 1:1 Skype wedding consultancy session (value $500) with me (or if you prefer, 2 x 30 min sessions, spread throughout your wedding planning)

“Recommendations I might never have found”

Here’s what bride-to-be, Clare Robinson, had to say about her 1:1 wedding session with me:

“Karen and I discussed everything from my wedding dress fears to stationery vendors to adding really personal touches to the day. She has such a wealth of experience and so many recommendations I might never have found.

 

I finished our session feeling so excited and positive and like I knew now what was most important for the day. Most of all I felt a new found sense of confidence that this was our day and that actually I could pretty much do it however I wanted (thank goodness for my wonderfully laid back fiancà©!).”

You have the whole of Hannukah to claim your 1:1 gift , but there are limited spaces for the 1:1 sessions, so join Brides Club ASAP if you’re interested, as I expect them to go like hot cakes latkes.

“My session with Karen assisted me in finding my perfect venue (before the session I had searched high and low and never found this one on my own!) and our perfect Rabbi (not straightforward as my now-husband is not Jewish but we wanted to have a fully Jewish ceremony) and inspired us with creative ideas.

 

Karen helped me look at the bigger picture to form ideas of what I wanted my wedding to look and feel like, from the wedding ceremony to the vibe of the party to the details, encouraging us to personalise it as much as possible.

 

This is what led me to later make decisions on vendors and other details, many of which were Karen’s contacts who were all fabulous. Karen’s taste is cool, modern and elegant so needless to say her recommendations and ideas were excellent.”

From Jewish wedding checklists to music playlists, to amazing vendor discounts, to action-plans, personal advice, and SO much more, you’ll also get every benefit of being a member of Brides Club – my secret community for planning your perfect Jewish or Jew-ish wedding — as well as your 1:1 session.

Plus a free smash glass pouch for under the chuppah too!

And there’s more: My 2nd Hannukah bonus gift to you is a ‘SMASHED IT” smash glass pouch for under the chuppah!

Yes, if you choose to join Brides Club for $25 per month during the 8 days of Hannukah (starting now) you’ll receive the ultimate designer pouch (below) for the glass for FREE (retails at $28).

We’ll even pay for postage + packing to wherever you are in the world — it’s all on us!

And of course annual subscribers will get the pouch — as well as your 1:1 session.Continue Reading
