To celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the UJA Federation in New York, we brought the organization’s mission of “Good Together” to life through a series of grand yet poignant installations highlighting the organization’s programs.
As guests moved between the space, the varying sculptures and thought provoking installations signified their mission of caring for the community in need. These included the ‘RELIEF’ bar built out of canned goods, and a pyramid of snack boxes that were donated after the event.

Drawing from the bride and groom’s eclectic interests, we created a celebration that felt grand yet intimate, organic, and whimsical. The event was a progressive celebration that revealed and reflected the couple’s unique personality with each stage of the festivities.
Beginning with an elegant and ethereal waterfront ceremony at the bride’s family lake home, we introduced a natural forest aesthetic that would flow through all the events of the evening.
Following the ceremony, the guests were moved to a barn which was transformed into a magical enchanted forest for cocktails. This was followed by a floating candle-lit dinner, and the event culminated at an after party recreation of the couple’s favorite festival, Electric Forest.

For this quirky couple, we planned a whimsical night with installations that would allow guests to journey through the couple’s love story. By utilising playful puns and inside jokes, we created a series of installations that would make it an unforgettable night for everyone.
Due to a last minute COVID lockdown, this wedding was transformed from an elaborate reception to an intimate celebration at the brides house in the span of 48 hours. Nonetheless, we ensured that the playfulness and vibrancy the couple desired remained intact.

Nature’s Playground is an oversized world created to showcase the natural ingredients of Kiehl’s products in a tangible and tactile way. Guests were invited to bounce through calendula fields, slide down a mountain of vitamin C, swing their way through fields of lavender, and enjoy several other sensory installations.
They were filled with nostalgia as they made their way through these playful activities, munched on reimagined classic kid snacks, and danced to throwback tunes, all while learning more about their skincare needs.
