Join Us at Bridelux, the Ultimate Day Out for Jewish Couples—Wherever You Are in the World!

10/09/2020 by Karen Cinnamon

Over the past couple of years, Bridelux Atelier has risen to the very top of my social calendar. I don’t attend many wedding fairs, but I always make time in my schedule for the world’s finest luxury wedding show’s yearly stop in London.

If you’re looking for inspiration and ideas for your wedding, you can’t do any better than to attend their upcoming event at London’s stunning One Marylebone, an 1826 property moments away from Regents Park. Plus, for this season’s event Bridelux is partnering with renowned society magazine Tatler to bring you some truly incredible content  – AND they’re  offering 60 lucky STG readers the chance to attend FREE, either in person or virtually.

The World’s First Hybrid Wedding Fair

Usually, Bridelux is an in-person event. But this year, due to the coronavirus pandemic, it will be the world’s first ever hybrid wedding fair. So even if you live far from London – or don’t feel comfortable attending indoor events just yet – you can still attend virtually. And whichever way you choose to participate, you’ll be able to fully enjoy all of the fantastic offerings.

And those offerings are pretty amazing. This year at Bridelux, however you choose to attend, you can expect:

  • Some of the world’s top wedding designers and suppliers, including Vera Wang, Reem Acra, Vivienne Westwood, The Wedding Gallery, Balloonista, and many, many more
  • Devoted 1:1 time slots where you can speak with vendors – whether you’re attending in-person or virtually
  • Access to Bridelux’s Tatler Wedding Talks, curated by Tatler’s Wedding Guide editor, Astrid Joss, where planners and wedding suppliers will impart their knowledge and expertise – whether you’re attending in-person or virtually, you’ll be able to join in live or access recordings at your convenience
  • Live music
  • Swag bags
  • Cocktails and refreshments for in-person attendees
  • Complimentary copy of Tatler
  • A special discount just for STG readers – see below for details!

The Songs You’ll Need for Your Jewish Wedding {Facebook Live with Kimpton Fitzroy London and Jonny Mosesson}

06/03/2020 by Karen Cinnamon

Mark your calendars for Tuesday, March 17, at 7:00 pm GMT (3:00 pm EST/12:00 pm PST), I’m so as excited as I’ll be going live at one of my very favourite London venues, Kimpton Fitzroy London, with the ridiculously talented Jonny Mosesson, the chazan I had at my own wedding!

A firm favourite with STG brides, Jonny is truly the very best – and when it comes to Jewish wedding music, his knowledge is positively encyclopaedic. And he’ll be sharing it all with us, as he performs a multitude of songs from different traditions that you may consider including at various points on your big day.

He’s here to help you choose the right music for your Jewish wedding, so this is your chance to ask away!

Kimpton-Fitzroy

Interspersed with Jonny’s angelic singing will be a live Q&A, where you can ask me, Jonny, and the Kimpton Fitzroy London weddings team anything you’ve ever wanted to know about either Jewish wedding music OR this in-demand Jewish wedding venue. Definitely not to be missed!

We’ll be filming live from Kimpton Fitzroy London’s magical Palm Court, complete with a soaring glass ceiling that floods the room with light, comfortable clusters of seating, and lots of gorgeous greenery — the vibe is conservatory meets lounge meets members club, and it is exactly as fabulous as it sounds. Intimate yet fun, hip yet classic.

But that’s not all! Once we’ve wrapped up with Jonny, we’ll be launching straight in to Facebook Live #2 of the evening, a venue tour of the Kimpton Fitzroy London starting at 8:00 pm GMT / 3:00 pm EST / 12:00 PM PST.

Located oh-so-centrally in Bloomsbury’s Russell Square, the Kimpton Fitzroy London combines historic charm with modern luxury. It’s a mega-luxe, uber-stylish place, with every inch full of the chicest of contemporary details.

There’s no place like it for an urban glam Jewish wedding in London, and I can’t wait to take you along as I tour through all the stunning spaces on offer for your big day.

In between it all, we’ll be enjoying delectable canapés and drinks from Adam Nathan Catering, Kimpton Fitzroy London’s preferred partner for kosher-style catering.
