An Eliza Jane Howell Bride for a Cabana Chic Jewish Wedding with a Mirrored Chuppah at the Park Hyatt, Mallorca, Spain

by

Jewish wedding Park Hyatt Mallorca Spain_0009
OMG HOW dreamy is Jade and Andy’s destination Jewish wedding in marvelous Mallorca?! Their venue, Park Hyatt Mallorca, is just BEYOND — it may be a hotel, but it feels like an ultra-glam villa. Of course, the stunning natural surroundings — mountains AND oceans — don’t hurt, and neither does the fact that beautiful bride Jade is a pro wedding planner herself at Fantastique London (she also has a fab lifestyle blog!).

Unsurprisingly, she made some AMAZING design choices – we’re obsessed with the super cool mirrored silver chuppah — cleverly set up to reflect the gorgeous grove of olive trees in the sunken garden surrounding the ceremony space!

We also love how Jade and Andy opted to seat their guests in a square formation on all sides of the chuppah, to enhance the intimate feel of the day — such a nice idea, especially if you’re having a smaller wedding like these two did.

Weddings don’t come much more photogenic than this one, and Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Denee Motion absolutely made the most of the cinematic surroundings — the aerial shot that opens his epic trailer is unforgettable — as did Signe Dzile Photography in her beautiful images.

Gorgeous Jade looked totally smashing in her Eliza Jane Howell dress from STG Recommended Vendor Mirror Mirror in London, and we’re not at all surprised to read her rave review of the “amazing” personalized experience. Jade, over to you…

A Destination Wedding in Mallorca

Jade, the bride: We frequently go to Mallorca but had never visited this side of the island and wanted something different from the center of Palma. Being an event planner, I didn’t want a typical hotel look.

Park Hyatt Mallorca has been open for 2 years and has been built like a Mallorcan town. The resort has stunning mountain views and sea views of Canyamel beach. It offers 5* luxury but without that typical hotel feel.

A Maria Farbinni Bride for an Ultra Glam Jewish Wedding with a Mirrored Peony Chuppah at the Metropolitan Club, New York City, USA

Jewish Wedding Metropolitan Club New York City NYC USA_0057
Um, WOW. Excuse us as we pick our jaws up off the floor. We are just floored by the magnificent mirrored (!) peony (!!) chuppah in today’s Jewish wedding.

It is just BEYOND, and those hanging peonies suspended from the canopy? Serious, serious #chuppahgoals. Bride Marina says standing under it felt like being in a midsummer night’s dream garden!

Actually, just about everything about this wedding is hardcore #goals. And it’s no wonder, with superstar wedding planner and Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Amy Katz running the show.

Marina, who works in product development, and Gary, an MBA student at UPenn’s Wharton School, can’t stop singing her praises, but her work bringing this epic day together really speaks for itself.

This duo had absolutely the quintessential NYC wedding, just bursting with old-school elegance (but with some very cool, very contemporary touches thrown in to keep things from getting stodgy — you won’t want to miss their tequila-infused Mar-Garita cake pops!.

And we could not be more in love with their exquisite Central Park photo shoot spearheaded by the couple’s fantastic photographer, Lilian Haidar.

There’s so much more to say, but we’ll leave it to Marina, who looked stunning in her strikingly elegant princess gown by Maria Farbinni…

How We Met

Marina, the bride: We met at a 4th of July party in Amagansett, NY. Marina invited Gary’s friend to a party her friend was hosting. The friend brought Gary along and the rest is history.

A Milla Nova Bride for a Whimsical Jewish Wedding Weekend in Lilac at Langley Park, Chippenham, UK

by Leave a Comment

We absolutely love Amy and Sammy’s vision for what we like to call a local destination wedding for their big day: the London-based duo wanted to “create the feeling of an abroad-style wedding without actually having to travel overseas, as we wanted to have as many of our friends and family there as possible to celebrate with us.” In gorgeous Langley Park, they found the perfect countryside venue to bring their loved ones together for a full-on wedding weekend away from it all, no flights required.

Amy and Sammy love a party, and it was important to them that their guests had an amazing time at their wedding. Enter Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor Ambassador Band. Music was a top priority for the duo, and in Amy’s words, “after coming across a ‘Sean Paul Remix’ by Ambassador Band on TikTok, we instantly knew they were the ones for us. They were so cool, had incredible voices, and their repertoire was unlike a typical wedding playlist, which really helped create the atmosphere and keep everyone on the dance floor… Geoff and the band were amazing throughout the entire process. They went above and beyond, helping us with everything from production and staging to lighting, and nothing was ever too much trouble.”

We’re also obsessed with Amy and Sammy’s whimsical floral outdoor-chuppah – don’t miss it (and all the other fab details) in the wonderful photos from Stories from Eros!

Now over to Amy… 

How We Met

Amy, the bride: Sammy was in the year below me at school. He went to Yavneh with my cousin, so although we had crossed paths a number of times we had never actually spoken. We met properly 5 years ago at a mutual friends birthday at Pergola, and went on our first date a week later – as  they say, the rest is history!

A Gemy Maalouf Bride for a Classic Winter Jewish Wedding at Banking Hall, London, UK

by

Claudia and Aaron, Banking Hall, London, UK

We love a London winter wedding, and Claudia and Aaron’s is really something special! Claudia, a wellness coach and personal trainer, and Aaron, a consultant, had the chicest December Jewish wedding at the iconic Banking Hall. The character-packed venue was the perfect spot for their classic black tie affair – and we’re obsessed with the stunner of a staircase!

Featuring a simple, chic chuppah adorned with white florals and greenery, an absolutely breathtaking Gemy Maalouf gown, and the most wonderful personal touches (Claudia and Aaron wrote personal notes to each of their 175 guests, which they placed on the tables as place cards!), there’s so much to love about this gorgeous day. Don’t miss all the magical details in the photos by Pippa Mackenzie and video by Lewis of Lightbulb Films.

When it came to music, Claudia and Aaron opted for Smashing The Glass Recommended Vendor XS Showband, and they couldn’t be any more thrilled with their choice. In Claudia’s words, “They were just unbelievable. Every meeting with Fran and her team was perfect and they also did our production too which made the process feel really seamless. The band absolutely smashed it and our guests still reminisce how amazing they were.” They even brought Claudia’s grandad on stage to sing “New York, New York,” one of the highlights of the whole evening!

Read on for the rest of the story in Claudia’s own words…

How We Met

Claudia, the bride: Aaron and I grew up in the same area, lots of mutual friends, same parties, rival schools but never crossed paths until our early 20s when we were both on JSwipe and matched. The rest is history.
