  • The Standard | NYC Wedding Accommodations

    Thu Apr 29 11:56:00 GMT 2010 Merci New York

    Continuing with Merci New York's series of featuring some of the city's hottest hotels to stay, sleep and play, {and of course, house your out-of-town wedding guests}, it only made sense to showcase one of the newest, hippest and dare we say, sexiest, hotels in Manhattan: the ever-chic Standard Hotel. Take a peek... The Standard is hotelier Andre Balazs's latest, and like many of his past ventures, it comes packed with a certain electricity and buzz that oozes downtown cool. Perched twenty stories above the High Line, the city's newest old park {recreated from the former elevated subway line...

  • The Surrey | NYC Wedding Accommodations

    Thu Apr 01 12:44:00 GMT 2010 Merci New York

    I truly adore the chic decor and uptown panache of The Surrey. I had the pleasure of previewing the newly renovated hotel during a Net-a-Porter press event last month, and reminisced about its dove gray decor after running a post on Monique Lhuillier's home similarly-hued home earlier this week... Simply stated, the hotel is gorgeous.If you're hosting an uptown wedding, it's well worth considering this spot for your out-of-town guests. Take a look...Sitting along a quiet Upper East Side block, the Surrey looks more like an inviting apartment building than a hotel... Many of the 190 guest room...

    Filed under: Honeymoons, Receptions, Green WeddingsFor the environmentally concerned couple, a wedding can be a true challenge to your principles and your conscience. You want to have all your friends and family with you, but that means so much stuff! So much waste!It's good to know that there are some venues that will support you in your efforts. Kimpton Hotels, which can be found throughout the States and in British Columbia, has been developing its "Earth Care" program since 1985. If you decide to hold your reception there, and/or arrange that out-of-town guests stay there, you will know th...

    Recently, I was fortunate to share a wonderful lunch and tour of the Crosby Street Hotel with an intimate group of wedding professionals. Needless to say, the company was wonderful, and the venue was so striking, I couldn't wait to share these images with you.The "Spring" room is one of three private event spaces at the hotel {and my favorite for chic rehearsal dinners}. The space is so perfectly designed, only a few simple flowers and candles are needed to personalize an event.A "Crosby Suite." High ceilings and full length windows with spectacular views of downtown New York make these high l...

  • Seven tips to accommodate the visually impaired or blind

    Mon Mar 31 11:00:00 PDT 2008 AisleDash

    Filed under: Negotiating Speed Bumps, Alternative WeddingsWeddings are tremendously visual affairs -- unless you or your partner is visually impaired or blind. You'll still want the bridal gown to rustle as you walk, and those fresh-scented flowers, but you'll have some practical needs that not every couple has to worry about. 1. If it's some of your guests who are visually impaired, have a designated usher. Teach him how to lead a blind person. Also, he'll need to be adept with words: You'll want someone who won't just escort them to their seats, but who will provide verbal description to ori...

  • Fish, Beef or Chicken Nuggets? How to Accommodate your Pint-Sized Guests!

    Fri Jun 27 08:00:00 GMT 2008 My Wedding Blog

    Whether or not to invite children to your wedding can be a dilemma of unforeseen magnitude. Everyone, it seems, has an opinion and is not afraid to voice it. Loudly. Including kids in your celebration can provide relief for their parents, who would otherwise have to deal with childcare (this is especially difficult if traveling for the event). However, as a parent myself, I can say that sometimes I secretly like not having the option to bring my kids to an event. It forces me to enjoy some adults-only time, rather than spend the evening constantly reminding......
