Our Method to the Madness

"It was certainly the most beautiful wedding that I've ever been a part of... I'm so glad it was my own!”

“Haines and her team were professional, organized, and warm throughout the entire process. I felt completely supported, and it wouldn’t have been possible with Significant Events.”

While wedding weekends are our specialty, we also take on a select number of mitzvahs, socials, and other milestone celebrations each year. If the experience matters and the people do too, we’d love to celebrate with you.
