Jesse Reing has over ten years of experience in the hospitality and event industry. Born, raised, and bat-mitzvahed in Westchester County. From a young age, Jesse knew her purpose in life was to help people realize their vision for their most important occasions. Her creativity, precision, and passion for bespoke service set her apart from her industry peers. After graduating from Binghamton University, Jesse actualized her purpose by earning an MBA in Hotel Management from University Center Cesar Ritz, an internationally renowned hotel school in Switzerland. Jesse returned to NYC and worked in catering and events for Manhattan luxury hotels; Jesse began planting the seeds for what would soon become ‘Events by Jesse.’ By attending the Institute of Culinary Education and obtaining a diploma in Pastry and Baking Arts and Culinary Management, Jesse gained a heightened level of expertise that would allow her to relate to all elements of event planning. Other highlights of Jesse’s career include managing Michelin Star restaurants, leading the catering team for the President of FIT, and acting as the catering director for NYC’s largest independently owned cafe brand, FIKA. Given her unique experience in client services and her previous work as a vendor, she seamlessly navigates her clients’ wants and needs through the event planning trifecta — catering, entertainment, and design/decor.

Forever blown away by Larisa and Joe’s Gilded Age-inspired portraits at Rough Point. And Larisa’s gown! Every embroidered detail was magnificent.

Their wedding weekend in Newport, Rhode Island, was planned with their guests’ experience in mind. But this photoshoot at Rough Point was just for them.

We think those just-for-you moments are every bit as important. It’s what we mean when we say your wedding should reflect who you are, both as individuals and as a couple. We brainstorm with you, find the idea that feels most like you, and make room for every must-have along the way.

Looking for a restaurant wedding in New York City? Bottino in Chelsea offers something you don’t often find: a large indoor dining room and a covered garden patio in the same space. That means you can hold an intimate ceremony outside, rain or shine, and move straight to dinner inside.

A dreamy cocktail hour in the garden... wait, what garden? Oh, you know, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden!

If you want a wedding surrounded by nature and a one-of-a-kind guest experience without leaving the city, this is the place. Every season gives you a different backdrop, and it isn’t limited to spring and summer. Fall and winter here are just as beautiful. And if the weather has other plans, the indoor spaces keep your day on track, so you’re covered either way.

Just got engaged and don’t know where to start?
Start with your budget and guest count before you look at venues. Once you have those, I take over as your full-service planner, handling everything from researching venues and vendors to negotiating and booking them.

Love on repeat🎵 Our clients’ shared love of music shaped every detail of the wedding design, and their custom vinyl seating chart turned something ordinary into something unexpected.

Our approach to design is to make it feel like it could only belong to this couple, so guests think, “Of course they’d do this!” and are also blown away by it.

Yes, you can take your couple portraits somewhere other than your wedding venue. In fact, we can help you build time into your wedding timeline to get the shots you’re dreaming of printing, framing, and displaying in your home. Just know it’s only worth it if you have a plan and every vendor is on the same page.

When Pamela and Robert got married at Manhatta, they wanted portraits at The Beekman, where they were getting ready. We built in 90 minutes for those shots, plus a few on the street and in the park, then headed to Manhatta for family and wedding party photos.

We shared one timeline with the photographer, the venue, and every other vendor on-site, and built in extra time so no one was left guessing.

Your timeline should fit what you want, not the other way around. And no, you’re not asking for too much.

If you’re searching for a Brooklyn wedding venue with real history and character, the Urbane Arts Club might just be “the one.”

Formerly the Beverly Social Club, the Urbane Arts club has been a speakeasy and event venue for over a century. The building is located on a residential road in Brooklyn and has the charm of a sweet older home, with the elegance of an unexpected, artistic retreat inside, complete with a ballroom that can comfortably fit 80-100 guests, and 6 guest rooms upstairs to house some of your favorite people for the weekend. One reason we love this venue is because there are no restrictions on what catering or beverage you can bring in.

Truly an experience you can personalize! Pricing for the whole weekend, including guest rooms, starts at $8500.

It’s a privilege to be a part of your wedding day. Even after 12+ years in this business, we have never stopped caring about our couples and their guests, and the real reasons behind a wedding, like the love, connection, people, and moments that go into making a unique, never-before-seen celebration.
