Alexandra + Ian’s wedding was a memorable one for us in both 2020 and 2021. Tzahhia was their lead planner, and she first met with the bride and her mother, Susan in June 2019.

As things fell, their original wedding date happened to be the weekend that shutdowns and stay at home orders started due to the pandemic. To say things were a whirlwind was an understatement but against all odds, Alexandra + Ian were still able to be married in an intimate ceremony at St. Patrick’s on the date they had initially planned for.

The reception however, was rescheduled to fall during their one year anniversary at Brake & Clutch. Fun fact: Alexandra’s father has connections in the candle industry as he is in it, and he was able to provide all the candles for the reception, including over 100 pillar candles for the guest tables as well as smaller, personalized ones that were used as favors.

For the seating chart, Alexandra and her family tied French blue velvet ribbons to each bell that held a small card with the guest name and table number. Those same bells were then used for the send off for the couple, as they were whisked away into the night!
