Happy New Year Jewish and Jew-ish Brides!

01/01/2020 by Karen

Woo hoo — it’s 2020! Perhaps that means you can now say “I’m getting married THIS year?!” (so exciting!). Or maybe you’re looking forward to tying the knot in 2021?

Either way I wanted to let you know that we’ve just released 8 new free places inside our Brides Club for Jewish and Jew-ish brides… WOO HOO!

Smashing The Glass’ Brides Club

Inside our Brides Club we minimize wedstress and overwhelm, with step-by-step guides, handpicked wedding vendor discounts, Jewish wedding action plans, a free smash glass pouch, Jewish wedding checklists and templates, and SO much more!

You can find out more and grab your free place here.

You’re engaged… and I get it:

You want to be different but fulfil certain expectations.
You want to be cost efficient without seeming to scrimp.
You want to involve friends and family without causing them a ton of work and stress.
You want to throw an amazing party that will appeal to quite a disparate group of people… and across the generations.

I know most of these pressures apply to ALL weddings but there are extra levels of pressure for Jewish weddings — how much of the traditional stuff do you do? How do you cater for kosher guests? The chuppah, the ketubah, the glass, kippot, the rituals, the rabbi…

And then there’s the party itself. How do you ensure it’s one to remember without losing your mind in the process of planning it all?

That’s why I set up my Brides Club and I can’t wait to see you in there.
