THANK YOU 2017!

Hello friends,

2017 was QUITE the year for my baby business!

From just an inkling of an idea in the summer of 2016, Stephanie Gatton Events was born. 18 weddings later – and with another 8 already on the calendar for 2018, I’m loving what I do and who I work with. My clients invariably become my FRIENDS, a relationship born out of the trust and honesty they give me. They’ve taken me down to Philly, up to the Hudson Valley, all over this city that I love, and even on a plane back to San Francisco! Along the way, I’ve gotten to know some kick-ass vendors and venues, my partners in making your day extra-special.

Over the next few days, I’ll be thanking each and every one of those couples, as I look forward to making new memories in 2018 and beyond.  LET'S DO THIS!

 xoxo,

Welcome Announcement - Celia & Douglas!

Hello friends!

Though I've been working with this wonderful couple - and the groom's mother - since May, I'm only now just getting around to welcoming them officially to the Stephanie Gatton Events fold (how much more busy can this summer/fall get?!?). 

Welcome to CELIA & DOUGLAS!

This lovely couple were sent my way by the mother of the groom of a previous couple of mine (did I mention that parents LOVE me?). Moms talk, and one thing led to another, and I ended up hitting it off with THIS mother of the groom, who was busy helping her son and soon-to-be daughter-in-law plan a Hudson Valley wedding while they were living in Texas and Pennsylvania, respectively. A tall order on a normal day, I was pleased to come on board to relieve some of the stress of it all. From site visits to their gorgeous venue to intricate timelines, sourcing wedding favors, props artisans to put the finishing touches on decor items, and even designing the seating chart as well as handling all calligraphy needs for the place cards, you name it, I jumped in and did it!

Now, Celia and Douglas are here, back in Manhattan! Celia's family has made the trip over from her native China, and both families look forward to becoming one. And I look forward to their fall wedding weekend in the beautiful Hudson Valley! I am honored that they've brought me on board to serve as the coordinator for their big day. Let's do this!

xoxo,
